I usually go for EVISU, Etienne Ozeki or Ecko for jeans.

Although that does limit where I can buy from but it's made up by the fact they do a 36" inside leg.


Jesus wept, I thought I had trouble getting 34s :lol:

LOL! I was thinking the same thing!

I'm 34 leg 34-36 waist and I really struggle to find them. Usually if they're not done in actual measurements then I take a "Long" leg. I've never seen a longer leg though! LOL!

In fact, I don't think I've ever seen a 36 leg.

I'm the other way, needing 36-38 waist, but a short leg.

Levi 501s fit me well, and lucky enough so the cost isn't an issue.
34 waist, 34 leg works for me, and I usually buy them when I need them.

Having said that, Tesco cheapies work for decorating or dirty stuff. I have an underlying problem with the "cheap labour" issues though. Try to overcome it by giving.

Not bought jeans since I was a child.

Not a fashion I like really.

Just please don't buy any that look dirty straight of the peg. I really hate those.

I've started buying them from GAP, mainly because the outlet nearby sells them in my size (the Levi ones seem to only stock skinny jeans not regular/bootcut which is a PITA) and they are cheap and last a fairly decent length of time, and at £20-25 a pair they are pretty good value :)

Levis whenever I can though, had some pairs last years before they got too tatty at the bottom of the legs

Gap. They are the only brand that make jeans that come in the colour & weight of-denim, in the leg length, waist-height, button-fly'd and roomy-thighed cut that I require.

My new Volcom strides have just arrived. £26 delivered from eBay.
I count that as a win.

Hmmm, I've had a look in Burton and not found any suitable ones. I forgot to mention that I really like buttoned jeans, rather than ones with zips. But besides that, the pockets weren't big enough :(
I've been back to Matalan where the current pair came from, but they don't have that make in at the moment (denim 73), and even when they do have them in their are quite inconsistant.
I've also tried Next, but again, pockets are really small...

That's about it for Aber, I'm off to Shrewsbury next weekend (1st Dec) so might have a look about then. Elsewise it'll be my next trip to Cardiff...

There's something wrong about zips on jeans. There just is.

Speak for yourself. Ever tried unbuttoning your fly after you've had a few down the pub?
