Can't be for real? Why I was instructed to come here from one snob-fest to another one that's no different, I have no idea. You post something they wanna see, or else it's not for real, it's trolling. If it's disagreeable, might be a troll post. Seems yet again everyone here assumes money is of course no obstacle, everyone lives in a big city where all these obscure retailers run their specialty clothing shops, and if you don't know all about it then "wow man d00d brah, you're really stupid troll 4 realzah"!

Okay, so maybe you're content with the jeans you have, but I rarely ever see any dude wear that I'd call fitted, slender, or sleek in the way that I'd like it to be. Levis slim and skinny fits are pretty dang lame to me for the most part.
Should I warn all the others who don't give a damn?
post pics of what you're thinking of, then. apc new cures have a rise of ~9in, naked & famous skinny guys have a ~9in rise, hell one of the nudie fits probably has what you're looking for. if you want something even more crotch-huggingly tight, perhaps you should invest in jeggings?

If you're trying to be fashionable, quit buying skinny jeans. They had a moment in 2005. Now they're so played out it's ridiculous.

But if you're really gonna press on it, go buy a pair of APC petite standards and size down 3. Perfect skinny fit.

Is the fit you're looking for a 'skin tight' fit? Since you sound pretty skinny Nudie Tight Long John is almost skin tight and sounds right for you. Also Cheap Monday Tight. But if you like to rock girls' jeans then go ahead. I actually know a few people who do. Girl jeans have a lot lower rise and usually smaller back pockets.

Where do you live?

WV, and don't care about where I should move so don't bother.

I'm not. Just like what I like. I'm also not necesarrily looking for a skinny jean, which usually implies that cuff is small. Problem is in the guys department, if it's not skinny fit, then you can bet it'll be pretty damn relaxed all throughout.

$195 - $200 for a pair of pants? I've come to the wrong place. My quest really isn't to find the tightest dude jeans on the Earth, it just a question of why I can't find a pair in the guys for a decent price that are basically a replica of "chick jeans". Take for example, the basic AE line and note the difference between what they describe as "sits low on waist" and "fitted through thigh" on their "slim" line for guys, and compare that to the "skinny", "artist", "original boot", or even "boyfriend" jeans for girls.

Well since you seem to get it, you should talk some sense into those fighting me. My point was they don't make guy jeans the same way they do girls, apparently quite a few here would disagree. No matter how specialty or expensive the dude jeans, they still look like dude jeans and fit like them too to some extent.

did you even look at the cuts of the jeans and how they fit, or did you just dismiss them because they were $200?

So... you are trying to dress like a girl? Poor misguided people seem to have no problems creating ball-crushingly tight/low rise fits by sizing down already on very slim/skinny jeans meant for men. Pretty sure APC jeans are unisex btw.

PC jeans ARE unisex.

Just buy New Cures and size down 2 or 3.

I don't wanna hear any whining about the price.

This. How could you wear girls jeans? I just recently got a pair of slim fit RRL jeans, and I have to be careful sometimes or risk a rather uncomfortable situation. If the rise was any lower, I seriously don't think I could wear them.

Well, that was one deterrent. The other being I don't see how the cut looked any different than Levis, and/or were very plain looking.

It's just what I like, admittedly a bit fem yes. Unisex as I've said, I dunno, it's still basically a "dude" cut. I remember reading an article once on unisex jeans that basically said it'd be no different than wearing dude jeans for a woman. I forget which ones they were talking about, but that stuck with me.

When you get older will you wear mom jeans?

Probably. Just the other day I saw an older guy sport them, gotta say they still look a heck of a little better (imo) than old man jeans.

Why size down into something, when I could have something in my waist size cut for a fitted and small look anyway?

Allz I know is I already own a pair, the rise is 7in. Great jeans, very comfortable. Only problem is the front pockets are basically fake/unusable.
