Next jeans worn out in 12 months

[mummyrabbitpeppapig]

Bought pair of next enhancer jeans around this time last year. Wear them approx one/two times a week. They are wearing out already around the thigh area. Jeans usually last longer than this! Thoughts?

Were they the lift and sculpt ones by any chance?

Wow it would never occur to me that jeans would last that long, always wear them through in less than six months. Normally through the knee...

I did have Levi's from the 90s that did last 5 years but things aren't made like that any more!

It's too fast if they're actual denim, but if they're a mix of denim and a stretchy material then that's pretty standard. A lot of 'jeans' these days are no more durable than cheap leggings.

I loathe Lycra in jeans. I actively avoid buying any with more than1%.

I also had this with next jeans - not just at the thigh rubbing point but on the front of the thighs too, they replaced the first ones and the exact same thing happened. I wear gap jeans now, they've lasted much better, despite my legs still being the same!

I found Next's quality of product across the board has really declined. It used to be great. Now, it is poorly to average quality at a high price.
I have Oasis jeans and they have worn really well. Lycra won't wear as well especially if washing at high temperatures.

Gap jeans are great, 3 years and still going strong. Some M&S are good but as many have pointed out, Lycra is often the cause. Designer jeans containing Lycra are no better, just far more expensive.
