I probably don't know good fabric and I am okay with that! Just like I recognize a wine from a winery in the Hill Country is better than a box wine but probably couldn't tell why a $300 wine is $300. And I am happy like that.![]()

No offense taken. Now that I think about it I do notice that too. Old Navy used to use super thin and light fabric. I am more laughing that I am happy in my un-fashionista world. I hope I never emerge from my bubble of being happy with my $15 Academy/Kohls bargain jeans and my clearance bike shorts (I found Exte Ondo bibs for $50 so I guess I am high rolling some days).

"Luxury" jeans are hand dyed and distressed (for different washes and styles) instead of being done by machine, among other things. Should they be $300? No. There are plenty of high end jeans brands that are at least as nice and cheaper, though a few years ago when the concept was newer (at least for jeans-only brands, not high end designers who also made jeans), they were all under $150, because $100 jeans were twice as expensive as what you could get at the GAP. Now the prices are all extra inflated. I don't want Rock Racing to go under, but it would be nice to see companies like Rock & Republic readjusting their prices, even if that means some layoffs.
