They fit fine, and look the same as the more expensive ones at the boutique shops.
On the six months thing. I rarely wear undies. Six months would be disgusting. Its not like your any different ten the rest of us. Butt-holes and beanbags sweat, and what about farts.
I wear Levi's too, the 510s. But regardless of the brand, I still want them to look nice. I don't like the leeched dye look, so I try and wash them as infrequently as possible, and when I do, I am careful with how I wash them.
Expensive jeans are nice too. I have 1 pair of Marc Jacobs jeans that I really love, and I am glad I paid the money I did for them. I can't compare the Levi's to these of course ... but they are each nice in their own way. I am not going to wear these jeans to some dingy dive bar, after all. Everything has a time and place, right?
Either pair though, I still wash the same way. I try to take good care of my (few) belongings. Like the thread talking about immaculate bikes ... why shouldn't we take good care of the things we love?
