Oh gracious.

I've been in a fast food restaurant more than once where there's been someone in dirty clothes (from working outdoors) in front of me in line, and I've just left.

Dirty clothes are just a level of disgusting I don't want to deal with in my day to day. And these people are now trying to sell that as a look? Gross.

You've left the line just because a working man stopped in to get a meal?

These peticured melenialls should just get a job in the blue collar industry to have their own dirty work clothes.

lol millenials can't afford these

You sound like an asshole, holy shit. This is hands down one of the most obnoxious and condescending posts I've ever read on this site.

The only Millennials I know that could afford these jeans work in trades.

More power to them. I'm just personally grossed out by dirty clothes and I'd rather just go somewhere else. The only person inconvenienced by my action is me.

I think you misread my post as me telling the other person to go home and change.
 
I guarantee more expensive jeans more than pay for themselves in the long run. Going from $15 Target jeans that feel like shit and fade/wear out quickly to $45 Levis have shown me the error of my frugality

What can I say? I'm glad that's working out for you.

Clothes are pretty much like cars. Going more expensive only really gets you more flair. As long as they fit and cover my naked body I'm good to go.

I guess it must be nice to be wealthy but I'm not about to go out and spend over $50 on any article of clothing.
 
With the right shopping acumen, you can look pretty fly for under 50 bucks, shirt/pants/shoes.

For the rugged look? Hell yes. A pair of Levis and a quality plain t-shirt from somewhere like Uniqlo ($6, I think?) belt/buckle and you're pretty much there. If you're gonna do the rugged thing you only really need to put out big money for a nice pair of boots or two. Everything after that is up to you (wrist and neck wear, hats)

X5 if you have muscles. Gay or straight that is a look that will never lose appeal or go out of style.

Plus a nice pair of jeans tend to have a better cut. Nothing worse than flat butt, especially if youve got the cake.


Jesus christ. They somehow made the blue jeans on blue jeans look worse

What movies is this from ?

From Freaks and Geeks. That episode in particular could be seen as relevant to buying fake mud jeans

What? That's not true.

Go buy some clothes at Old Navy and Banana Republic, wash them once and see one difference immediately. Old Navy will not fit you. Wash them 5 times and see how the collar is maintaining its shape. Hint: Old Navy will be loosey goosey.

Even for the not rugged look. Outlets, resellers, second hand stores, garage sales. All good sources of fashion.
 
You may not like them but a pair of $50 Levi 501s will last way longer and are objectively more durable than your Seven For All Mankind/Diesel/Gloria Vanderbilt pants.

Their logo is literally a pair of draft horses failing to pull the pants asunder.

501's are about all I buy. If I could only get them with a tapered leg...
 
You know what, I wore pre-ripped jeans as a teenager and into my early 20s. This is basically the evolution of that. I can't knock it without being a hypocrite.

Now, I will say, I never spent more than ~$80 on jeans, so maybe I can knock these for being overpriced, at least.

I still wear ripped/distressed jeans.

I doubt this will pick up and become a trend. Probably a cheap publicity stunt.
 
Having dirty, muddy jeans isn't remotely fashionable. At least with ripped jeans there is some history behind it, fashion designers essentially aping 70s/80s punk and skater culture and making it trendy. Nobody is trying to look like they just got back from a kid rock concert in the rain, and that will never be "trendy".

I have to imagine the only reason these exist is for the reactions (much like Miles Rowe's and the OPs) which will get the company's name out there, good, bad or indifferent.

Hey now!
 
can i get some fake mud jeans for like 40 dollars somewhere by some brand? I love the look of these because making other people feel uncomfortable in public is one of my favorite hobbies.
 
Even when you're rich as fuck you must realize how dumb this is.

Anyway, looking forward to high class restaurants selling half eaten pizzas
 
Give it two weeks. H&M, Topman and Zara.

Awesome. To me, this wildly popular new mud denim trend that's going around everywhere says "I'm homeless and or on jenkem meth and if you get anywhere near me I'm going to uppercut you onto a roof". It's just what I've been looking for.
