Just reading the Sainsbury jean thread and it got me wondering.
How many jeans are a normal amount to own?
What's your total?🙂

2 - one blue and one black. Plus a pair of denim shorts.

Tusktusk · 15/02/2025 16:28

I’d love to know where those of you with 10 plus pairs keep them all? You must have spare rooms for your clothes. I’m always getting rid of clothes because I just don’t have space for them.

Two or three.
What's your total?🙂 Haven't a clue. 50?

@Tusktusk , I have run out of space. I do wear most of them, but I won't get rid of any I like unless they are completely unwearable.

3 pairs M&S boyfriend jeans in blue and 1 black pair which I wear on rotation.

1 denim
1 black
1 navy

I work full-time so they are only worn at weekends or on holiday.

None. I don't like the look or feel of jeans

Clocloxx · 15/02/2025 16:41

9 or 10 I think, love a nice pair of jeans

CraneBeak · 15/02/2025 16:44

Two good pairs (one black, one blue). One absolutely wrecked pair.

16, I live in jeans and even wear smart ones for the office.

In answer to pp they all live in one of the drawers under the bed

Lovelynames123 · 15/02/2025 16:50

Probably 10-15, I've recently sold some on vinted too...a lot are the exact same apart from colour because I found a style that fitted nicely. Some are the same colour but I wear the older ones for work and the newer ones outside of work. Also have a similar amount of leggings, but I really only wear jeans or leggings

ashamedtramp · 15/02/2025 16:53

i think i own about 8 pairs, but i only regularly wear 2! ive not read any other threads about jeans but i buy all my jeans from vinted.. im wondering at what age i should really stop wearing jeans?

JaneFoe · 15/02/2025 16:54

Own over 30. There is no normal.

DramaDog · 15/02/2025 16:57

About 30, I often buy the same ones in a few colours if I like them.

hopeishere · 15/02/2025 16:57

Two. One blue, one black. I wear the blue ones all the time. I need to get out of this rut.

AnnaMagnani · 15/02/2025 16:59

Two exactly the same style in different sizes, one for fat days and one for thin days.

Lorrymum · 15/02/2025 17:01

3, if I buy a new pair one of those will go to the charity shop. One in one out is my new mantra.

Cyclingmummy1 · 15/02/2025 17:04

One. They aren't my favourites.

GordonLaChance · 15/02/2025 17:11

Over 100 - probs closer to 150 🙈 And. That's after I gave loads to charity/friends or sold on vinted!
Ranging in styles & colours (skinny/wide leg/flared/cropped/boyfriend/embroidered/ripped) plus multiple pairs of cords.
I fully admit I have a problem.
And I've still never got anything to wear 😂
