I purchased these jeans from another website in new condition, for a little over a half the price than advertised here which was a very good deal. I love TR Premium Vintage line, these jeans definitely stand out among all others because of the unique wash, you can see that they are high quality carefully made jeans. I am thinking of purchasing another Premium Vintage pair in different wash. Literally when jeans look THAT good, you don't care about spending more, and I absolutely agree on the fact that it is better to spend more on quality denim than buy less expensive jeans and end up not liking them.
