Jeans WITHOUT holes!?

I've been A Levis guy for a long time, so I went to buy a couple of new jeans, all mine have holes or grease stains all over them. When I get to the store EVERY pair of boot cut jeans come with holes already in them. I need the boot cut cause, well, I wear boots. I talked to the sales lady, and told her the reason I'm shopping for new jeans is because my old ones have holes in them. Needless to say she isn't much help. All I want is boot cut Levis jeans that don't come pre "holed." Might have to switch brands but they're never gonna fit right. thanks for listening

I AGREE! I was a huge Levi's fan for years then they started all this "pre-holed" crap. If I want jeans with holes in them I'll just wear em to work for a month. I ended up switching to Stranglers (aka Wranglers) for work jeans. I just want normal Levis back!

Just be a real man and get you some Wranglers They make a relaxed fit cowboy cut that is way more roomy than those stinking Levi's.

Yup, it kinda sucks to go into a store thinking that you can get some good jeans even though thay cost alot, only to find out that they are already worn out. I used to like Lucky jeans, but I really don't see the point in spending $80 on something that is dirty and torn to shreads. Anymore, I stick with Wrangler 20Xtremes. They fit right and I can actually wear them for a while before they have holes in them. I question their durability, but they are tougher than any Levis that I have ever owned. The orignial wrangler jeans are tough, but it seems like they need to be 3 sizes too large to be anywhere near comfortable, and they shrink until they are too small anyway.

my carharts are my "fancy pants" but they still last pretty good...

I usually wear Dickies work jeans... I will say that the Wrangler work jeans I got recently look like they're going to hold up well. Those things are THICK/sturdy!

Welcome back to 1985.

I'm waiting for those female jeans with the 270* zipper to come on back; acid wash and stone wash already came back in a slightly different form, as did dark dye w. yellow stitching.

I had regular arguments with my fiance' about me wearing my worn out jeans for years. She said I always looked like a bum Then they became "cool", but only if you go pay $100 for the from Abercrombie & Fitch. I don't think so.
