It's even tough to find western jeans anymore that cover the bum

LOL!! I happened across a Tyra Banks show on "mom jeans" during those few days that I ran away from home. I don't miss the couple of pair that I have - I still wear them, and love them.

Not a mom but I wear whatever fits and is comfortable. Don't really care what label it has. Elastic waist is good on jeans.

The two pair I still have are leftover from my high school days in the 80's...

I wear and I love my Mom jeans. But then I am just me and don't care what other's say is style. I have my own, I don't need theirs.

I am glad 'high waisted/rise " jeans are comeing back in. No more having to look at these overweight girls with muffin tops and jiggly bellies all over the place....alsways tugging on their pants as soon as they get up or while walking !!!

AMEN!

If I had EVER dressed like that my mother would have sent me back to try again!

I've noticed the new "high rise" (wide waist band mainly) that are being worn with the skinny belts..that was my style. LOL I have some capris that aren't exactly low rise but not high rise either...keep pulling them up, especally as they "stretch out" as they are worn.

yep, good ole Lee jeans here too and the price is right. They get worn, torn and faded good on the ranch so why would you buy them that way or pay alot of money only to get cow crap on them or ripped on the fence. as for the low rise, ever try to throw your leg over a horse wearing those?

I have lower rise to ones that are up to my waist. I go for comfort more than style, so trying them on dictates whether I buy them or not :D:D:D

I do. I have been searching the thrift stores for the styles that I like to wear, I can't find them at any of the retail stores.

I usually wear men's Levi's because they land at just the right spot. I like the women's lower jeans because women's regular jeans come up under my boobs, and I HATE that. It's most common with the elastic waist jeans. That's why I wear longer shirts, to be sure there is no 'clearance' in the back!
