Piledriver Waltz here, occasional poster, long time jeans wearer.
If you go a waist size up from your usual size in Levi’s Skateboarding 511s they fit like a pair of 513s.

Thanks mate but I now prefer the fit of those Volcom ones. Maybe it was just time for a change.
It is a false economy.
I don’t buy jeans I won’t skate in though.

I bought a pair of WESC jeans about 10 years ago and they’re still the best I’ve ever bought. They’re just absolutely perfect fit, stretch, look smart, soft. The colour’s even better than any other jeans I’ve ever owned. Only problem is I’ve ripped the lining of the right-hand pocket and I know sooner or later it’s going to annoy me enough to have to stop wearing them. I don’t even know if WESC exists in the same way as it did then so I know I’m not going to be able to get a like-for-like. River Island jeans suit reasonably well, but they’re not the same.
Edit: I’ve just checked and they DO in fact still make the same jeans but they’re selling them at €120 a pair, I got them for £40 or something so all I can say to that is “lol no.”
I usually get a hole in the crotch of my jeans after 2 years of skating in them and get them repaired by a professional seamstress here in my village. She puts a patch inside the jeans then sews all over the patch, you can’t really see it but it’ll make my jeans last another 2 years which is dope. There’s nothing like an old pair of jeans that has the perfect fit.

a pair of jeans that have a perfect fit, stretch, look smart, soft and last 10 years is a bargain at €120.

Possibly haven’t worn jeans once this year. They just aren’t as comfy as other legwears.

They’re rad but I prefer wearing jeans on the daily and finding a pair of good chinos is as hard as finding good jeans. I tried those Dickies everybody wears these days and they felt like a parachute made of cardboard.
What fit do you like? Docker’s Alpha Khakis are good.
Chinos get dirty too easily.
element chino’s are actually very very good if anyone was wondering
I’ve found that with lot of element clothing. I don’t really buy skate brands to wear but on the odd chance I do it’s usually element or volcom. Got an element jacket 7 years ago which other than needing the zip replaced is still is very good condition

Going to get rinsed here but Zara jeans are rad.
Good fit and enough stretch in them. Can usually get some plain ones or some Hollywood Muska types if that’s your thing

As someone with 2 cats and a 7 month old baby… I wholeheartedly agree. Fuck them all to fuck.
Try Mole
Got 2 kids asleep and I’m just waiting for them to be woken up by them so can’t relax properly.
Just as I think they’ve packed up, someone else starts again about 10 minutes or so later.
This whole couple of weeks is just a pain in the arse for us who want to relax peacefully.
You get a mole with them?
What sort of marketing strategy is this?
