This

Most I've spent was $50 on a pair of Aeropostale jeans a couple years ago and they're still the most comfortable jeans I've ever worn.

If you shop around, you can get some good looking jeans for 12 bucks a pair. Unless you're specifically going for name brand, you should never pay above $20 or $15 for any article of clothing that isn't for dressy occasions.

I bought jeans for 5 bucks at the salvation army. That was in 2002. I'm still wearing them.

Looking for jeans that last. I paid for seven two years ago, from Walmart, and I'm down to three cause I do maintenance and my job is ruining my clothes.

Sure, if you're poor

Carhartt are great jeans for work. They make pretty durable stuff. I had two pairs of them when I worked in a plant nursery and after a year and a half of basically constant use and constant washing they didn't haven't any holes/tears and still actually looked half decent for casual nights out.

Exactly, one thing that I learned from my father before he died at the beginning of the year. Is that if I want something durable, it's Carhartt. They make very durable stuff.

This is bad advice on several levels, don't follow this


Anyway, Carhartt make solid workwear. Thicker than average and durable, and $40 per pair is very reasonable. They're probably not going to be the most trendy cut/detail wise but they'll be good.
