I find jeans with stretch way more comfortable. I Sao find most brands offer a wide range of levels stretch from zero to yoga pants.


Check the fanfic contents and look for pants with less than 1-2% spandex.

Murdoch's, Tractor Supply, True Value Hardware all carry real Levis and jeans. Can even find some good jean overalls.

I like jeans with a little bit of stretch, especially if I am wearing skinny/straight leg because I have bony hips and big calves. I do NOT like "jeggings."

I went to several stores and even tried on some of these stretchy "jeans", which will probably keep me from ever enjoying another regular meal again Is this trend going to permanently replace regular denim? If so, I have bought my very last pair. It will be skirts from now on. Someone please tell me this was just a really bad day of shopping and not the death of denim!
Though retailers and designers are still cranking out the "skinny jeans", bell-bottoms are also being sold now, in denim and corduroy. Macy's, btw, has kind of gone off the deep end with their decision to focus almost exclusively on the youth market and very trendy stuff. But you can find something closer to old-fashioned denim/heavier weight jeans and slightly more conventional cuts at their online shopping sites.

Somebody, somewhere, must be selling old-fashioned work jeans, you'd think. But who? Where? I've never seen a True Value Hardware store that sells clothing, btw. It must depend on location.

I got a pair of Red Head jeans at Bass Pro. Very comfortable. But since I retired I find myself wearing Red Head cargo pants, also from Bass Pro. Also very comfortable.

I bet some of the outdoor wear catalogs have them: LL Bean, Eddie Bauer, REI Co-op, etc.

Farm supplies too. Find places selling jeans intended for *work* not being fashionable. Remember to buy slightly loose if they aren't prewashed because they will shrink a little. The non stretch ones are warmer too.

I still wear Levi 501's.

I've been threatening my wife I'm gonna lose some weight and start wearing the acid wash guess jeans from the 80's I had when we first started dating.
