In the past month I have ripped TWO pairs of jeans (in a matter of nine days actually). With one pair I bent over in the grocery store and felt a cool breeze where there should not have been one. And with the other pair I took a large step up into the back of a truck and felt the same. Neither tear was due to my growing derriere, both were expected. I had been wearing both pairs since high school and I had gotten them second hand from my sister.
This turn of events, however, means I am down to two pairs of jeans. One of them is ripped in the knees (a lovely thrift store purchase) and the other is from the gap (and stretches out to give me a saggy butt within an hour of squeezing in to them). Actually, I also have a third pair, also from the Gap, that I was told to purchase in a size smaller than I am because they were expected to stretch out... and they didn't so I have too tight pants that give me a muffin top and nobody likes a muffin top. I bought those three years ago and they have been sitting on my shelf ever since (at least they were on sale for $20). Oh, and as an aside, they shrunk in length after the first wash (somebody put them in the dryer) and are now an inch and half too short... not attractive.
So I implore you, what are your favourite jeans??
I am willing to save up a little extra cash to get nice ones as I end up wearing them for years and years. I would prefer jeans that don't stretch too much and that aren't too tight. Where do you buy them? What do you look for? Help!

love love love silver jeans. sooo pricey though... boxing day? oh, and I like jeans from Jean Warehouse One. Have a pair from grade 9 that I still wear around :)
seriously, what's with those gap jeans stretching like that!? sagging bum is awful. only good for a couple hours and then they sag. i feel your pain.
Silver jeans lasted me ages too and fit well... the most recent pair a bought were from our Walmart equivelent for 30$ and havent stretched at all and fit soo good. I was surprised! When I was in Vegas i bought 2 pairs of Hurley jeans that are really good too and were cheap at the time. You might need to go to the outlets shops in the states to get those for a decent price tho... Good luck!!
dude! wetseal.com. "almost famous" brand. they are too long for me, i always hem them but they would be good for you AND they are pretty inexpensive. they wear good too!
