        Evidently the owner (why am i not surprised) of Rock & Republic is quiet the shady f*ck, for what it's worth I've never liked those giant R designs on the pocket, sorry.

            I can attest to the quality of diesel jeans, although at this time I only have one diesel bathing suit and a few shirts....I sold all of my worn diesel jeans on Ebay to people outside the US for about $100... they thought it was a great value too.

            ^Will look into 575 jeans...

            & Not ever going to line this guys pocket:

              The thing with jeans is that it's not just the material ... the cut is also key - you have have the best material/selvage but if the cut or colour make you look a twat, they're skin tight, or hang around your arse making you look like you pooped yourself then they ain't worth it.

              Generally I buy jeans in the sales ... got 5 x Diesals, 2 x D&G (they had a great cut and people comment on how great the denim looks), paper denim cloth, nudie, stone island, g-star, and a £17 pair of Helmut Langs that were the last pair left in Florence (bargain). Also bought 2 x pairs of Red Ear jeans at a Paul Smith outlet for £25 each.

                That said, I quite like these ones when I first saw them:

                Typically the jeans should mold to your body.

                      I think jeans are the only thing Diesel does well (especially their gallery or premium line that Dhar mentioned) but I don't own any. Did think about it. Their clothes are iffy.

                          I think the cut on these drainpipes looks awful ... even worse when they make your shoes/boots/trainers look massive.

                            Def not the most inexpensive route, but I think Bloomingdales has a great handle on things in terms of selection, etc. They do have great sales too. At the very least, you can check out what the buyers there are advertising online and then try to find a similar look for less $ at an outlet I guess.

                            bloomingdales

                            (imo nordstrom was the place to go, but something happened with their buyers and now their selection is lacking)

                            I wouldn't go that far....one thing is for sure, never shop at a Diesel Outlet store, they literally have a bunch of sh*t there...but anyway I will wear it on occasion nowadays not like when I was younger.

                                ^I've moved on from TR's also, I see 40-somethings wearing these now mainly and obv look rediculous...not to mention the cowboy boot thing...everyone has their personal favs though.

                                One brand that hasn't been mentioned which I forgot and totally dig is:

                                GSUS

                                I'm not a huge fan of whats on their website atm, but boutiques will have various gsus jeans that are sic! Would be interested in hearing Dhar's professional opinion on this brand of jean.
