Question Jeans

Anyone have any suggestions for jeans?

I'm 5'8, and usually wear a 24 in the absolute longest I can get them...
I haven't been able to find any nice jeans that actually fit me in forever!


Thanks!

If you do get jeans made, I recommend Earnest Sewn. They run from $400-700. Kinda pricey but not too much when compared to the rising price of off-the-rack premium denims.

But before you take the custom plunge, try on a few pairs of their standard fare. Most of the jeans are with a 36" inseam, some even in 38". Plus, the price tag is rarely over $200. My favorite cuts are the Harlan (slim cigarette leg) & the LC (super skinny).

I favor Earnest because the details are minimal and classic. While I do own a few pairs of other premium denims, the decorative stitching and seasonal ornamentation will quickly date your jeans.

I know finding the perfect pair is an endeavor. If you have access to Barneys CO-OP, I suggest heading over there to sample a little bit of every line in their Denim Bar. Good luck in your search!
