I'll admit that I'm not really into clothes shopping (love grocery shopping but that's about it  ) ... When I buy jeans for myself I usually go to Old Navy so I'm spending less than $30 per pair ... When I buy jeans for dd [HASH]1 it is usually from American Eagle Outfitters so they are about $50 per pair ... Dd [HASH]2 doesn't normally like jeans ... has just never felt comfortable in them ... now she is going to be riding horseback (western) with my uncle and niece next weekend (and in the future) so she wanted a real western outfit  I live in Calgary and we have some great western stores ... it is really a part of the culture here - think Calgary Stampede ... I took her to one yesterday and ended up spending $80 for a pair of jeans (they were on sale ... would have been $100) and $65 for a plaid shirt  Dd [HASH]2 is 11 years old  Today was picture day and Molly wore her new outfit with my cowboy boots ... she looked cute as a button so it was worth every penny   What is the most you have ever spent on jeans? |

About $100.
I bet she was adorable! My granddaughter loves cowgirl boots and blinged out jeans, too. She's almost 11.

$175 on true religion... It is/was worth it. They fit really well, and I get complimented on them.

I am a jeans addict and I do spend a lot on jeans. On average, I spend between $150-200 a pair, but I've found I can get some of what I like at Rack for about $100.

I have some from the Buckle in the $150 range that I love. So worth the price tag!

About $30.00 I have tried on pricey jeans and don't see the difference. I like my Levi's.

$50. But, I have been pretty heavy most of my adult years and never wanted to spend a lot of money on jeans. Now that I have lost weight, as soon as I hit my goal, I am going to get a really nice pair of jeans. I may end up getting them somewhere like Plato's Closet (We'll see. I may be able to get a good deal at Macy's or Buckle) and still get them for under $75. ETA: I have recently gotten some good deals on Lucky jeans. |

I've spent $100 on jeans but the fit is amazing and worth every penny. Otherwise I have purchased Miss Me jeans at Macy's on sale for $75. I am usually a Silver jeans girl, and those go on sale at Maurice's quite a bit. I covet the Rock Republic jeans...maybe for Christmas.

A long, long time ago, $50 on Guess jeans when they were all the rage. Now, well, I buy most of my jeans at Target or from the thrift store. Lots of Gap, Old Navy and Levis. I have been mostly the same size for years and years. I have a pair of jeans I have had for about 15 years - they are Levis and super-duper comfy. I have not been able to justify spending the $$$ on top, name-brand jeans. Lisa |

I'm pretty cheap, so probably about $50! I bought a pair for $11 at Old Navy this weekend. I have never really been a huge jeans lover, I usually only have about 1 pair at a time and wear them until they don't fit or wear out.

I'll spend anywhere from $40 to $100 on jeans. It depends on the fit for me!

Not much that is for sure.. probably not more than $50... I can't imagine paying that much for jeans.. well unless I could get rid of this weight and buy some that would really make me look good. At the rate I'm going though..I'll be to old to care... haha

Probably around $100, but that was in my younger days. Now I probably wouldn't do that because I'd rather spend the money to do a project around my house or on my kids. Hollister recently had a sale on jeans ($18 per pair) so I got two pairs that are normally $60 each for $36 total! I was rather pleased with myself. I've been working out a lot recently and eating healthier, so I thought it was a good reward for myself!

$200 - 7 for all Mankind creates the illusion of some curves where I need them. My MIL has spent $100 on Buckle for my daughter. The way that kid is shooting up, she's lucky if I'll spend $30 - I'm pushing shorts and skirts as I'll get more than a week or two of wear before they're too short. I swear that girl is growing an inch a week.

$200. I'm a fan of 7 for all Mankind and also Citizens of Humanity. I am very thin with no butt and I'm 5'11" Finding jeans to fit is a nightmare so I'm willing to pay for a well fitting pair. It doesn't really matter what they cost, if they fit I'm buying them.

Leanne - you must get yourself to Vespucci's! It's on the NE corner of Elbow and Heritage. It's a high end consignment store and I buy all DD's jeans there. They have a lot of the designer fashions. Most of her jeans would be $200+ new but I usually spend around $40. Many of them even have the tags on them still! If you follow them on Facebook they have 90% off sales a few times a year. Every since DD started wearing ladies sizes I've had such a hard time justifying $100 jeans when they won't fit in a few months. Gotta love the growth spurt years!  |

I wear jeans pretty much daily. My current fave are Ralph Lauren's which I buy at the factory store - anywhere from $40-$60. I think that's the most I've ever paid.

$100 for jeans, for myself. But that was back in the day when I couldn't find any longer lengths except for Levi's brand. I'm 5'11". I wore those jeans until they were completely worn out. I'm glad this isn't a problem anymore and now I pay around $30-$40 for jeans.

$39 at Express! They put them on sale once in while & I buy them. Normally they are 89-100. I love them! They fit so well. I also have some Gap jeans, but found them on clearance for $19. I hate, hate, hate Old Navy jeans! They are awful. I also can't stand Levi's anymore. They used to have cute jeans, but not so much anymore. I've given up on them.

The most I spent was $110 on a pair of Silvers and I'd still be wearing them 3 years later if I wouldn't have grown out of them.  They were totally worth the price. They were the softest denim and they fit so awesome. The last pair I bought were 50% off and they cost me $48. If you buy good jeans, don't gain weight/lose weight, they'll last you for years. |

I think the most I have spent is $80. Those jeans were well worth the money. That was quite awhile ago, though and j think that in some aspects the mid-range jeans are probably about the same quality as the high end. You are paying more for the name, which at times is worth it. . I typically buy my jeans at Maurice's because they have x-short length. The jeans wear well and I can get them at a good price, especially since I don't have to have them hemmed. I have a few pair of Silver jeans and have gotten them on sale. I keep saying that when I lose weight I will splurge on any pair of jeans that I Kielce, but so far I haven't lost any weight.  |

Not much, I'm fat so I don't care for spending a lot on clothes.

Oh my! I can spend $200 on a pair of jeans. My J Brand high waist Maria's make me and my flabby tummy feel like a rock star. First time I wore them Dh told me I looked hot and asked what jeans I was wearing, so I ran out and bought them in black too. And I can't go back. I just replaced mine because I wore through them after almost daily wear for 6 years. I found them on the Nordstrom rack website in the Starless colour - my fav - and just got them in mail!

She looks great! I'll admit to owning both 7 for all mankind and Citizens of Humanity jeans -I wear them until they are worn out though!

She looks fantastic!
For most of us I'd pay $150 for a pair. For my 12yo not more that $50.
