My shirt was originally $100.00 I got it for $50.00
My boots were originally 180.00 I got them for $90.00

You gotta be ****tin' me. You're happy to have paid $70 for a f'cking pair of jeans?Originally Posted by bodyhard
Levis, bro. $25-35 
And lofl, I seriously just got back from a store where I returned some workout shorts and got 2 pairs that I liked (buy 1 get 2nd for 1/2 price)...and a cute stuffed animal for my daughter at checkout
. While I was there, I walked past the "designer" jeans. I'll wear out my own, thank you very much. Lofl.

Pfft! Levis is name brand, broOriginally Posted by bodyhard
$80 for a belt? What, did Prince Philip wear the belt first, or what?
But seriously, I have more clothes than most men (so my wife tells me), but I only care about decent "work" clothes. When it comes to home life? Give me a pair of Levis that I'll gladly wear holes in the knees, and throw in a cheap f'cking T-shirt...and I'm a happy guy .

That is a very good point, my friend. But when I was in a cast and on crutches, it was nice to be pushed around the mall in a wheelchair. Not that I would want to do that again though.Originally Posted by dbx
dbx knows what I meant. It's like this. Virtually no stores carry a 40x38 in jeans. That what what I was sayin. You get up around the 40" waist and the inseams drop to 30, 32, 34 at the most.

Actually, I might! It would depend on what the next closest price and quality brand cost though. Seriously, I laugh when I see these "pre-worn" jeans they sell for twice the cost of a pair without wear. P.T. Barnum would be proud. But even the expensive ones that I've seen aren't made nearly as well as Levis. Man, those kids working in sweatshops to make Levis are doing an awesome job.

I've tried to buy the expensive stuff buy my ass is way too big. I usually end up in 560's or Silvertabs. I just got a new pair of Lee's from Walmart that fit pretty good too. I do buy Nike's quite a bit, and all my dress shoes are Doc Martins.

I'm more of a Levi's guy myself but I did just find a pair of Lucky jeans that were my size. Yeah, miracles do happen sometimes when I go shopping. But the chix think they look good so that's what counts, eh?

I probably have 20 belts (some designer) that I've bought at the Goodwill for $1.00 each. Example: almost brand-new Fossil leather belt with no evidence of wear at the belt holes.
It just takes looking carefully for stuff that is in nearly-new condition.
