$100 pants club
Well, I'm gonna join this today when I buy the New Lightweight Wool Trousers from Banana Republic for a wedding.
Never spent more than $52 on a pair of pants before. I dress like a hobo, essentially. Who else is in the club? Everyone? Note: Suit pants don't count. |
Re: $100 pants club
No. And unless inflation really picks up, I never will be.

Re: $100 pants club
I have not come close to joining this club.

Re: $100 pants club
I have a couple of dress slacks that I have paid around that for. This reasearch has concluded that they wear no better than some $50 stuff from The Jones Store or Dillards.

Re: $100 pants club
Almost every pair of jeans I own are over $100. No, I dont pop my collar.

Re: $100 pants club
I almost joined the $200 Jeans Club a couple of weeks ago, but I resisted.
I have a couple pairs of dress pants that went for about $70 and one pair of jeans that was around $70. |

The Jones Store here is always having sales. Especially if you want wool slack in summer. I can usually get Claiborne or Kenneth Cole slacks for about half the origional price. One thing about slacks is the style does not really change from year to year. |

Re: $100 pants club
I don't think I have ever tried a pair of jeans on that were over $100. What is the real difference (besides $30) between some $70 Ralph Lauren or Kenneth Cole jeans and the ones your wear?

Re: $100 pants club
I pay about $75 for my jeans these days, mostly because of my above average height. I've bought some wool trousers from Men's Wearhouse for about $90 a pair, but usually I buy cheaper Khaki pants (for work) for around $40 a pair.

Re: $100 pants club
Seriously, I'll let you know when I spend less than $100 on a pair of pants.

Re: $100 pants club
Finally, a club I can belong to!
I paid $125 recently for a pair of Zegna jeans which, it so happens, is just about the most comfortable article of clothing I've ever owned. |

If we start buying $100 pants soon you wont be able to find a pair for less. It's a slippery slope. Take a stand. |

Re: $100 pants club
I'm not even a member of the $50 pants club yet.

Re: $100 pants club
What is idiotic about buying nice things that you can afford?
|
Re: $100 pants club
The biggest problem with buying expensive pants is that once you realize how comfortable the material is you can't buy regularly priced pants again.

Re: $100 pants club
"What is idiotic about buying nice things that you can afford?"
Exactly. No matter what you splurge on, someone will come along and say you shouldn't waste your money on that. But everyone splurges on something. I, for example, don't have much interest in travelling, though wanderlust is very common. If somebody handed me money and gave me the option to travel or buy clothes it would be close, or at least closer than the decision for everyone else, and I don't understand why people would judge me for that. Do you all just horde your money and line your coffins with it? -Michael |
Re: $100 pants club
I have a hard time spending $30 on a pair of pants. Cheap I am.

I hate when people judge other based on how they dress or look? Maybe he likes to wear nice clothes, so what? Maybe hes young and wears stuff like that to bang hot chicks. I do. Should we assume some one is poor with little self worth becuase they wear cheap shirts? |
Re: $100 pants club
The most I've paid was $40 CANADIAN for pants.

If I had millions and millions of dollars, I would much sooner buy an M5 than a Corolla, and I don't think anyone would be able to fault me for that. On the other hand, if I were making $40,000 a year and had kids to feed, it would be extremely irresponsible, and in fact idiotic, to do the same. |

Maybe I'll try on a pair of the more expensive brands next time I see them, but I think you are full of sh!t. |

But I never wear "pants" I wear a suit each day and jeans. |
Re: $100 pants club
I spend money like it's going out of style. Can't take it with you.

I'm a member. I pop my collar too.
