Jeans last for so long. One of the brands I love are Levi's and I still love their jeans for the style, comfort and durability. But now it has been so expensive and there are a lot of other jeans in the market but none quite as durable and thick.
I have one jeans that I still own for more than 10 years and thank God that I can still wear it and not have gained so much weight. Jeans are so comfortable and versatile that I just love wearing them always.
So what's the oldest jeans you own? Do you still wear it? How do you feel about your jeans?

I love jeans! My favorite when I was in high school was Guess. Then I moved on to Gap. Now, I don't care as long as I like them. My sister loves Lucky because they fit her so well.

I actually still have some from college and no I'm not going to date myself tonight. But I don't wear them. I have been collecting them to make a jean quilt. But I'm not very good at sewing, but I love the look of them.

Hi SukiSmiles. I also have 2 guess jeans and they are also great. It was a bit expensive also but worth the money. Gap is also nice. So, how long have you had your jeans?

Thanks for the response Zhong. I guess it takes one to be accustomed to wear jeans and each has his/her preference. And yes there are many female who look good in jeans but it must fit you well.

I never wear jeans, even as a young girl I have no worn jeans, I don't know why I just never liked them. I guess it was because I was always overweight and I didn't feel like I looked good in them.

I still have some jeans, levis and lees, from when I was 20 years old which is 31 years old, as I am 51 years old now. I have kept two of my favourite pairs and since they are my skinny jeans I can't always wear them. I wore them when I was around 20 and then I started to gain a bunch of weight, had kids, and couldn't wear them again till I was 30 years old, after I lost 65 pounds on weight watchers. I managed to keep the weight off and wear my favourite jeans for about 5 years and then I slowly started putting some weight back on. So I hadn't worn them for about 15 years now but I am so close to being able to wear them again. I am losing weight again, by choice, and another 12 to 15 pounds more and I will fit them again. Kind of crazy for me to have kept these two pairs of jeans now that I have actually written this down, it seems silly.

i am a jeans and shirt type of person, i have been wearing jeans since i was in high school, i never really like skirt i prefer jeans since i feel very comfortable moving in and out when i wear one, even when i went to college, our uniform is a slacks and during wash day i wear jeans even if most of my classmates wear skirts.
of course its a different story now. i have to wear office dress but during weekend and holidays i still wear jeans. My favorite is my oldest jeans from Giordano, i have been wearing it since college and since my size remains the same i still wear it today.

I think I also have jeans 10 years over. I like denim jeans. I like levis, wrangler, U2, guess, Cslvin cline and yes some other imitations. I can wear only denims on friday and when I go on outings, and on saturdays and sundays. Very comfortable indeed.

The oldest jeans that I probably had was when I was still ten years old. I remembered how I love those jeans. It was the perfect fit for me but then I outgrown them and I never had the chance to wear it again. It was with me for about two years. I think it was turned later on into a rag. Hahaha!!!!!!

hmmmmmn, let's see.. how do I start these. I agree of the fact that jeans do really last for so long. I've got at least one. It mean so much to me because it was given to me by mother as a gift during my recognition day as an honor student. I could say that even though how old a jean is, there still be these sentimental value and despite the fact that you already have these new kind of jeans.. I bet you will prefer to use that old jean of yours, because I do..(giggles)
Actually, jeans also help us so that we will be able to be inspired to lose weight when we have gained so much. I feel so much for my jeans and I still wear it until now because it is one of a kind for me... ^_^

My oldest jeans are five years old with the brand Landsend. I love this brand jeans and all other garments. They are very good in quality and last well. I also have a pair of Jeanswest brand, but not as good as Landsend, which is my favorite. But I have to say that the first pair of jeans is now in the wardrobe as it is smaller and tighter for me now. I am gaining weight.
