Title: Do you buy/wear jeans that are ripped?
Post by: camellia0 on June 03, 2018, 03:17:50 pm
These jeans are so expensive in the store. If I wanted to wear ripped jeans I would go to a thrift store and buy a $3-4 pair and put holes in it.

I don't wear ripped jeans, some big women wear them, but I don't. Even if I wasn't, I still wouldn't wear them.

If my jeans are ripped, it's because I've worn them to death.  ;)

Nothing against faux ripping, distressing, ageing, etc but I generally buy my jeans with a dark wash and age 'em myself.

I prefer my clothes to look new if I'm going to pay a new clothing price. Guess I'm slipping into the "older" generation now. Never saw the point in buying clothes that look like what I throw out for being worn out.

Do you think the designer's are just laughing their heads off on the way to the bank? I wonder.

I personally cannot see paying good money for something that looks half destroyed, but that's just me.  ???

No I do not buy jeans that are ripped. But I do have a few pair that are worn and a little ragged, but they are work jeans.  I use them when we are cutting wood and  a pair  for when I am painting somewhere around the house , also have a couple of ragged t-shirts for the same thing.

I can’t figure out why folks wear jeans with rips in them. Most don’t look that good. I wear ripped jeans when I cut the lawn.

Do not buy them have a couple of pair that ripped due to wear and tear and being old.  Wear them only around the house when I am cleaning or gardening.

I certainly would not buy ripped ("distressed") jeans.  That fashion trend is out of control!  I love denim jeans, but have a few pairs that range from old favorites that I wear/rip myself over a period of time designating them for use in garden, yardwork or home improvement projects to a pair of casual jeans and a nice dark-dyed pair.

 It is crazy to me to think that people now pay for ripped jeans!!!! When I was in school people considered you poor if you came to school in ripped pants. I personally would not wear ripped jeans. I think it looks terrible.

Fashion has always been a place of extremes.  I don't know how many have seen the latest, but this is the next level of the blue jeans trend.  Unbelievable!  Selling at $168, you, too, can be 'fashionably' cool this summer in these stylish, on-trend blue jeans.

No. Back in the day when you wore torn clothes you were called raggedly or your parents could not afford new clothes for you.  Now it's an expensive fad. SMH

I went through a ripped jeans phase, but they're really just too much trouble now. When I used to do it, I would get the jeans from a second hand store though and do it myself rather than paying for already ripped jeans. It was much cheaper and I felt like my style was more authentic.

Post by: jkhanson on June 07, 2018, 03:47:18 pm
I don't like the look of most "ripped" jeans.  My granddaughter has a pair that are almost ripped completely the whole way around by her knees.  They have a small section of the back of the leg that runs the full length of the pant leg that holds the bottom half of the leg onto the pants.

I hardly ever wear jeans.  But when I do they are not ripped.  They may be a little frayed down by the ankles due to age.  I don't buy ripped jeans either.  I only have a few pairs.  I prefer going to goodwill for my clothes.  I don't see the point in over spending on clothing.  Once I became a Mom my fashion sense went out the window.  Practical and comfortable.  Not to mention my weight has gone up and down up and down with having babies -and jeans aren't very comfortable to me.

Yes, I have a few pair of ripped jeans. These are not extremely ripped like some of the ones I have seen. Just lightly distress. I love fitted jeans. I find it hard to find jeans that are not ripped.

I would never wear ripped jeans, bought or otherwise.  I grew up with my Grandma who was poor and rarely had money for things, but still never believed in looking ragged.  She would throw out things if they got too messed up and if I even considered wearing something like that I would just hear her voice saying, 'pay the extra dollars but get something worth wearing not something somebody took scissors too because they had nothing better to do!'.  So no.  I don't.

No I don't wear ripped jeans.  When I spend my hard earned money I want to purchase clothes of good quality that I can wear for a long time and not be concerned with them falling apart or going out of style.  I remember when companies were buying back customers used jeans.  It would be interesting to know if these are the same jeans they are reselling but ripping them to make them look new and different.   :rose: :rose: :rose: :rose:

You're right! People are paying about $75 for ripped jeans when I can wear them out just fine all by myself. I remember back in the day when I climbed the fence and tore my brand new peddle pushers that my aunt bought me. I cried about it and my aunt of course said don't worry and sewed them for me. Nowadays kids can design their own!

If I wanted holey, ripped pants....  I’d go to a 2nd hand store & buy jeans take it home, & add the necessary holes & rips. Fashionable 👖 for less! & that goes for ti-dye, bleached, sequenced,beaded, glittered,patches,bell bottoms,fashionable recycled reruns that happen generation after generations!

No.  If you want torn jeans, cut up a few of the ones you already own.  The cost of torn jeans is ridiculous.
