I wear jeans every day and have for years. I work outside in them and in the house and they are my preferred wear when shopping and dining. I have tried many brands and I used to wear men's jeans because they lasted longer when I was working and riding in them. I have changed shape and now women's jeans fit better but finding the right ones was a real job. I settled on these because they work, they have a waist that is comfortable and at the right position. They look good with boots or shoes and shirts or sweaters. For now these are my "formal" jeans and when they get old and faded, they will be my barn jeans!
