Shopping... Where can I find cool jeans for men?

    Hi there,

    I'd like to know where could I find cool jeans, I've seen several shops close to Henry St. and the Diesel shop close to Grafton St. ... but I always find these jeans that are very narrow in the ankles, like "skinny pants", or they have a lot of seams and pockets above the knee ... but below are totally flat, and I don't like them :P

    I like the jeans that fit well but the ankle part is a little bit wider than the rest, and specially the ones with "things" below the knee.

    Any idea?

    Thanks!

    I'd like something similar to these ones of Takeshi Kurosawa (I have two of this brand actually):

    Try Bertoni on Talbot St, they should have something that suits.

    Well, they do boot cut and semi-boot anyway, they tend to be more clean cut though, no "things" lashed on for giggles sakes.

    Urban Outfitters(Temple Bar) do loads of cool jeans of all shapes and sizes, be prepared to pay though.:rolleyes:

    Think this might be better suited to Fashion and Appearance.

    Thanks everybody!

    Des you're right, sorry I didn't realize that there was a forum for that :D

    I, like you dont like skinny jeans or jeans that are not wider at the bottom and like then boot cut or flared. The only place I found decent shape was jack jones. They seem to have decent jeans at a decent price unless like someone said you want to goto UO which will cost you serious monies.

    Also try asos.com I buy jeans off there too.

    Definitely Jack&Jones did the trick! :D

    Radar in stephens green

    glad you're happy with your purchase(s), but jack&jones are fast becoming the new "unique" of the men's clothing stores.

    Cannot believe flared jeans have supposedly gone out of fashion. I'm in the exact same boat as the OP, and for some reason cannot find flared jeans anywhere atm. Its doin my nut in!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,269 ✭✭✭Piriz


    hey,
    there is a shop in Jervis Street shopping center, two shops away from Schue on the first floor, it has an alrite collection of designer/brand jeans and they are not of the skinny variety..this shop can be expensive but can get some reasonable value there too, cant remember the name of it tho....worth a look..

    Ah cheers! I'll bear that in mind next time I'm up there so. To be honest money's not even that much of an issue with me. Flares seem to be so hard to get at this stage I'd nearly pay anything for them! :D

    Real men don't wear skinny jeans :cool:

    Jack & Jones is your friend.. And for some reason, whenever I'm shopping there, people always think I work there and ask me about things :mad: Must be because I don't wear skinny jeans :rolleyes:
    I also found that TK Maxx actually have some cool jeans for dirt cheap prices..
    If you're up for the trip, Burton/D2 in Blanchardstown S.C. have some good jeans too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,879 ✭✭✭Coriolanus


    Think there'd a Burton in jervis too. Above Dorothy Perkins.

    Edit: and @ whining about no returns, anything over the statutory rights should be regarded as a luxury. It's this sense of entitlement that makes working in the clothing retail trade a nightmare. :(

    Raidar are dicks.

    you can get flares from Road Jeans (roadjeans.com) but their website's a mess - they're sold in Tribe near Radar in Stephen's Green SC

    The Diesel shop near Grafton Street was fake in that it was an Irish "label" of the same name and is thankfully gone

    Superdry and Cult might have jeans for you - they're on Suffolk St


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,003 ✭✭✭Shane732


    Brown Thomas always have a good stock of men's jeans.

    Last two years, I've bought in the Diffney's sale, Mish Mash brand. They are dark and hard wearing, but have some nice touches...

    Penthouse in the Jervis do Mish Mash too, as do Addiction in Liffey Valley. Might be worth checking around and see what kind of deals they're all doing.:)
