Men should go up one waist size, January 30, 2005
This review is from: 2(x)ist Men's So Low Jean, Banger (Apparel)
These jeans are remarkable I have 3 of the 5 styles and certainly, no one can beat this price. One noteworthy item, I recommend men go up one waist size because the cut is smaller then a normal pair of low wasted jeans for men, once I made that adjustment the fit was perfect.

A big mix of pros and cons, May 21, 2005
This review is from: 2(x)ist Men's So Low Jean, Banger (Apparel)
I'd like make one point before reviewing these "jeans". They are LOW RISE jeans, meant to be worn on the HIPS. When you order, order your HIP SIZE, not your waist, otherwise you may be dissapointed to find that they do not fit you, or are one size too tight.
Okay, I ordered this with high expectations, considering it's from one of the leading designers for male underwear, but these jeans are a letdown compared to other products manufactured my 2(x)ist. Just as a poin of reference, I purchased this pair and the Dubliner, from the same brand, same size. That last point is very important as the Dubliner seems to be an inch more loose and with an extra inch on the inseam, which is quite annoying. This pair fits like a charm. There are quite a few cons I'd like to point out though.
One, the fabric is rather thin, and I was surprised to find the tag noting that it is 100% cotton. They feel (and smell, even) more like polyester, as hard as that is to believe. Two... They are rather soft for jeans, but they just don't have the feel or texture you would expect from denim. The finish is alright, nothing to be excited about, but I would rather call these faux jeans. I was expecting some The actual stitch seems rahter cheap as well, although I would have to commend 2(x)ist on their choice of blue thread over the traditional yellow. Aside from that, I would say 19.99 is a just price for the product, but it is definitely not worth the 128 retail. Why they even put that on the tag to begin with is beyond me. Concerning the durability... they DO seem built to last, though I have to admit, they can't possibly be as durable as higher grade denims.
