I go with durable. A nice older pair to wear around the house, toss in the wash when they get too dirty. Very easy to get along with.

I wear jeans a lot. They are comfortable, practical and also durable because I tend to wear things out quickly.

they are durable and inexpensive. you never have to press them.
once they are broken in, if they are properly fit, they conform to me.
i tend to be feeling the clothing i'm wearing at all times, and if i've got a comfortable pair of jeans on it's reassuring. if they're not broken in yet, or badly fitted, it's unpleasant.

Jeans rule :D

I wear jeans almost all the time. But I prefer wearing loose basic jeans, I hate those tight girly jeans.

I hate the feel of almost all synthetic fibers. Cotton is the only cloth I feel comfortable wearing. All my shirts and pants are 100% cotton, though not all the pants are jeans.

I wear jeans all the time ,but I wash them at least a dozen times before putting on a new pair.
Same goes for flannel shirts.

Emos and scenesters wear tight girl jeans because they have no testicles and they are desperate to fit in with all their emo friends.
Can't speak for everyone else, I don't like jeans, think they are too restrictive.
I only wear cargo shorts.

When I first started wearing jeans I didn't like them much because they're too restrictive. I always wore long skirts and dresses when I was little. Now I'm kind of used to jeans. I don't wear them when I'm relxing around the house though.

There is little I am comfortable in. My staples are black stretch pants and long tops/sweaters. In the summer, shorts are fine, I just HATE winter attire. I couldn't wear jeans for years, until they came out with the softer ones, "broken in" and the spandex and ultra low fit. I wear them now, but still not much. I hate underthings too. HATE. I have to wear sport bras, and I even hate those. I like things loosely hanging from me, which of course doesn't work with underthings, lol

I wear jeans because they are comfortable, look good with most of my shirts, and suit me.

Jeans are okay sometimes, but for the last several years I have been wearing something different more often than jeans...

I HATE wearing jeans or anything else made of COTTON. Cotton is heavy, and it takes forever to dry, giving me a rash in the summer and making me especially cold in the winter. Jeans are a perfect example. Modern polyester feels as soft as cotton, but it's lightweight and dries quickly - cool in the summer and warm in the winter - jeans are the opposite from this. Cotton can kill you in the winter, if you don't happen to have the luxury of a heated shelter.

I gradually replaced all of my cotton clothes with superior synthetic alternatives. Polyester is awesome. I wish I could find polyester pants that convert into shorts. That type of pant is usually made out of supplex nylon, which is still wayyy better than cotton.
