Rowan555 said:I almost checked these out - then I read about the "big hips and butts" in the post above. I have almost NO hips and no butt to speak of, so I would probably look rather odd in these jeans... Try Hudsons. Paper Denim Cloth and Blue Cult denim - As I stated before, I am not sure about all Earl styles, but style 55 is definitely has a smaller waist. |

Stylin said:Ermann said:Earl Jeans made a name for themselves in the Japanese market about 9-10 years ago at around $100. The Japanese are not known for their big hips & butts. Uhh not quite. Earl Jeans made a name for itself here in the US - LA to be exact. Style 55 2% lycra - the original and only jean. The "brand" (as the collection expanded) became popular in the Japan market around the same time it became a cult item worldwide 1999/2000. Earl was one of the 1st denim lines to introduce low cut jeans to the market. They are also one of the 1st jeans to start this whole expensive jeans as pants trends. oh, and the 1st pair I bought in 1997 cost $160usd
He was probably thinking of Edwin. |

If anyone has any info I would appreciate it!
I do squats religiously too. For that reason cannot wear jeans like 501's, too narrow in thighs. I own a pair of Earl's 72 Boot Cut, 34 X 34 and they are great, very well sewn. |

Smirnoff, are the men's jeans more of a thinner, smoother denim like the women's also?
Thanks. |

The ones I have are on the smooth thinner side. They are aged quite a bit too. |

You are correct that they are an LA brand, started by a husband and wife team. However, the brand skyrocketed to fame in 1998-1999 where the bulk of their sales came from Japan. The duty free company where I worked was their largest account and I did the worldwide orders. We sold style 55 for $85 and could barely keep them in stock. Their main competitor was Cimmarron Jeans. If you paid $160 you should have bought them at one of our airport stores and saved a bundle. |

Yah, squatter here too. I find that Abercrombie and Fitch has some pretty nice fitting jeans. I have more of a slim, lean frame than a big, buff one, so I prefer the low rise, slim fitting jeans. Makes my butt look great =P. |
