What is the difference between raw denim and not raw denim, both material and price wise Raw denim is just denim in it's purest form. It will be much pricier and you have to break them in for like a week or two. It's a pretty tough experience for your first pair but then they basically just mold to your body perfectly. Naked and famous is a good starting point if you want to do that

Yep, that too.
Also I second the gap stretch jeans. They are really good and are almost always on sale

If you are looking for reasonably priced jeans that you may only need while you are between sizes, Old Navy is probably the way to go. cpf's suggestion of Nordstrom Rack, Marshall's,Saks off 5th or other outlet shops is also a good idea. You can get really nice jeans at a good cost, but the selection can be really hit or miss.
When you are confident that your sizing is stable, Lucky Brand is a solid choice if you are looking to switch it up from Levi's. They have a few different styles/fits. Once you know which one works for you, you can easily buy online, and they are always having sales.

Thanks all for the education and advice. In some sort of irony, J Crew factory is having a 50% off everything on the web store so I got two pairs of jeans + 2 pairs of shorts for under $100 including shipping. What a time

Would also recommend Eddie Bauer ones (good quality and pretty affordable especially as on perma-sale). And they have both the relaxed and straight cuts for guys

Upped my random shoe game I was very skeptical about wearing minimalist shoes but these are amazing.

I really wish I could wear Vans (fully flat shoes always give me foot pain), as I would have gotten one of the Bowie ones, but at least I found a long sleeve T that I like and that fits me nicely too

I'm going to be fitted for a suit for the first time. The only one I own is something I got off the rack before getting married - I mean, it was tailored, but it's Calvin Klein. Kind of psyched to have a really nice suit.

Kind of psyched to have a really nice suit. I have all my suits custom made these days pretty much (too tall for regular stores and not big enough for big and tall stores) and there is legit almost no better feeling than when you slip it on when it's done.

I’ve only had a dress shirt custom made but it feels like wearing my own skin. Big fan.

Granted I don't really "get" online ceramics but why are they doing a collection based on the VVitch?

I saw that and was tempted to get some of it. A24 probably saw an opportunity to make some money from dumb people like me. They're doing it under the auspices of it being the third anniversary of the movie, which, ok?

I wish I had seen that A24 blue tee when it went on sale. I'd really like to have that. It's kind of wild how quickly some of their merch sells out.

I was going to go to Asheville right after work since it's only like 100 miles but realized when I was basically at work that I totally forgot to pack any kind of shoes.
So now my choices are
1. Wear my ugly ass dress shoes until I go back to Charlotte on Saturday for my appointment and pick up actual shoes for Saturday night/Sunday 2. Buy new shoes in Asheville which kinda sounds fun 3. Go home (45 mins one way) and take an extended lunch break to grab them and then come back to work
I'm thinking #3.
