00:00Hi, I'm Annie Georgia Greenberg fashion editor at large at Refinery29 and today we're talking about jeans
00:07Everybody wears them, but do you buy the $20 pair or the $200 pair today?
00:12We're putting some staffers to the test to see if they can tell the difference and which they prefer. Okay,
00:18Sophia
00:18I have two pairs of jeans behind my back
00:21one is
00:23Pricey and the other not so much. Do you think you could tell the difference?
00:29Not at all. What about now?
00:31How do you feel about these in general? I like them. They're comfortable. Let's do a squat test in a
00:36motorcycle stance
00:37Wow, that feel nice. Yeah, okay, so different vibe. Yeah, but these look pretty good. How do you feel in
00:45these are like
00:47The exact cut and like style that I've been looking for
00:52Forever like I want to walk away with them right now like bye guys. Well, you can't how much would
00:57you pay for them?
00:58Are they more or less than the last pair there? I definitely think that they're more survey says
01:03ding
01:05I thought that I would always pick cheaper
01:07But you can definitely tell the difference and now I need to go like reevaluate my life Landon
01:13Annie, you know good jeans. Yes
01:16Yes, do you know bad jeans?
01:18Yes
01:19Today we're gonna try two pairs on and you're going to tell me which you think are more expensive and
01:26which you think are less expensive
01:27Yeah, okay anything. Oh have at it. Thanks. Do I just strip here? Landon, how do you feel babe?
01:34I feel
01:36Comfy
01:36If you had to guess knowing that you're a man who splurges on jeans
01:41would you splurge on these?
01:43I
01:44Would splurge on these because I feel like they would get better with wear
01:48Put on the other pair and let's compare
01:50I can already tell you. I would not purchase these at all at all
01:56They're a little crotch hugging. There's almost no fit to them at all
01:59Which for me is just kind of lazy. I'll say they're softer. I feel more agile in them
02:06Oh
02:06So do you think that these are more or less than the other ones?
02:09I'm gonna say they're more
02:12Because even the most luxury of brands can make some pretty hideous products
02:16survey says
02:20You're right really these were more expensive than the other jeans
02:25I guess that just shows you that price is arbitrary because while these may be more expensive or
02:32Better made or what have you the other ones just made me feel better on the inside
02:36So how did these feel? They're very tight on me, but they look make my butt look great
02:41I think they're really super cute and flattering and I like the
02:44The wash on them and I really like this little detailing of having like a lighter wash as well
02:50Does it pass the lunch test? All right, hold on
02:53Yeah, it does
02:55Yeah, it does
02:56I feel like
02:58This would take a really long time for me to fray in the inner thigh meaning like high quality high
03:04quality
03:05Yeah, amazing. Well, let's try on the second pair and see how those feel awesome
03:11How do you feel about these dungarees? I feel that they are
03:16Much more flexible. I can definitely like move and
03:20Kick and do the robot in them
03:23Um, the wash is very light a lot lighter than I normally would use or would try on but
03:29Because of that I would almost assume that they're the cheaper pair
03:33Because of the wash and because they're a little stretchier
03:36I hate to tell you that you're wrong
03:39Or maybe I'd like to tell you that you're wrong because that means the ones that you like more are
03:43more affordable
03:45And these are the more expensive pair
03:50I feel like my life just changed. Is this serious? This is for reals for real. The other ones were
03:56under $30. Oh my gosh
03:59Can I have those? Can you guys just like give them to me now?
04:02Pants are hard jeans especially because no two jeans are created equal in price in fit or in quality
04:09So what have we learned here today?
04:12Well, I implore you to try every pair of jeans and see for yourself if it's worth the splurge or
04:19if you can get them on the cheap
04:20And when you clean out your closet recycle those jeans before you buy new ones
