{October 16, 2008}   2008 Favourite Jeans Poll

We have posted a couple of times on our love for Jeans, we often wonder how could we live without them? – What would we wear? The alternatives are almost too traumatic to contemplate – Chinos?!, no thanks – pressed, polyester cotton style (Farah’s-eh, nah, im not my dad) – Trackie Bottoms (“i give up”). Anyway, we thought that we would try out this wonderful new Poll feature on WordPress to guage our readers thoughts on the current status of gods own fabric. This poll is for womens jeans, men shouldn’t be afraid to vote either though.



{July 17, 2008}   Wardrobe Essentials – Jeans

Following on from our previous post on the importance of a decent t-shirt, its time to turn our attention to another essential wardrobe component – jeans. The Jeans powerbase has shifted over the last 15 years or so from the dominance of US giant Levi’s to the Japanese market (Evisu bought original 1950s US 29inch looms). The good news now is that you can actually grab a decent pair for hardly anything. This gives a great chance to experiment with some different looks.

Here are some of our favourite jeans:

  • Levi’s – Still making great jeans
  • Lee Jeans – Original US Jeans
  • Evisu – Japanese re-invention
  • One True Saxon – Great British Jeans
  • Peacocks Jeans – Nice range of styles including skinny, wide legged, cropped and slouch
  • eBay – Always worth a look for vintage styles – be careful though

Hopefully there should be something there for everyone, let us know if there’s any that we’ve missed!
