For pants, since Lucky do not make pants, i go with Banana Republic or Gap, they usually have the best fit for pants but their denim sucks.
As always, this is a computer forum where people find no plausible reason to spend money on clothing vs the people who find no reason to build their own computer vs a HP.
Person 1 into clothing: i spent 500 bucks on clothing
Person 2 into computers: waste of money, i shop at costco
Person 2 into computers: i spent 600 bucks on a new CPU and HSF
Person 1 not into computers: waste of money, i bought a dell for 600 bucks.
so .. it's your money -- spend how you want.

A more expensive computer gives you a significant upgrade over a regular run of the mill computer.
A more expensive pair of pants does not do that, unless your self esteem is derived from wearing overpriced garbage.
A better metaphor would be comparing people who buy Monster cables vs sane people who shop at monoprice.

The material quality, the craftsman ship and the cut/fit are drastically different from and cheapo jeans I've ever worn. Like no comparison. Similar tom comparing a ford focus engine to an M3 engine.
Sure you can get by with a ford focus all day but and m3 engine just out performs in all categories. Feeling good driving it is just small piece of it.

Right now I am wearing a pair of 30 or 40 dollar old navy jeans that have lasted the past 4 years.

all those high priced jeans are for skinny euros who weigh like 140lbs. i don't have to even debate on spending that much $$ for them. my girl had me try on some diesel jeans and I couldn't even get them up around my thighs w/out my nuts being squeezed against my legs. and i'm a 34 waist.

The only expensive piece of clothing I wear, if it even counts, are shoes. My work/dress shoes are around $80, my running shoes cost me $106. But I wear those daily and I pay extra so my feet aren't sore. To me that makes sense. But my jeans are $20 Costco Levis. Even my nice button downs are $20 Kohls Arrow fitted. And I only buy new clothes when they are on sale at Mervyns or Macys or wherever, why pay full price when they will be 30-40% off in a week.
I just don't see the benefit of $100+ jeans. You say they last longer, but mine last years with no problems, and I can buy 5 for the price of one pair of yours. You say they are the only ones that fit right, well I don't know what exactly that means. Are you wearing jeans that are tight and accentuate your ass or something? If so, I guess that is fine, I just can't stand my junk being squished like that, and I couldn't care less what my ass looks like. I wear jeans because they are comfortable.
I can understand paying for shirts that fit, I've gone through my fare share of crappy shirts that fit horribly. But if your spending $80+ on a shirt, your not doing it for comfort, stop kidding yourself.

So these days whether or not you will get laid is determined by jeans, not intellect or physical fitness?
Just slap some expensive jeans on a fat retard and he would get laid?

Jeans are just part of your front. Front = your outward appreance. The stronger your front the easier it will be to get girls. Front is your clothing, your car, jewelry, fitness, over all looks.
