I have a pair of hollister venice extreme light wash jeans. Does anybody else find it annoying that, while they look and feel skintight, you have to keep pulling them up casuse they feel like there falling down? It just gets on my nerves and its kinda embarrassing. Also, have you ever found that a belt does nothing? I'm really starting to get turned off to hollister because of the embarrassment and frustration of having to constantly check and pull the jeans up.

Somebody told me that its because the jeans are too tight. Or could it be my thighs are a bit too fat to wear Hollister?

LOL yes! I bought one pair and I have to wear a tank with it almost always because they constantly are falling off my waist. They're very uncomfortable.

It seems strange that they're falling off, and yet they still feel tight. Are they tight around your waist? Maybe your body shape is a little different, like your waist is smaller than your hips/thighs. My friend has this problem - she has to go up like 2 sizes in pants just because her hips are wide in proportion to her waist. But then she gets gaping at the waist.

It's probably due to the fact that you have larger hips in proportion to your waist. There's not much you can do about it. Wear longer shirts.

I've bought two Hollister pants (not jeans though), and they seemed to fit fine in the store. But after like half an hour of wearing them, they sag...

Or tailor your pants. Go up a few sizes to fit the largest part of you first, then go ahead and tailor everything else that's too large.

You might complain that this is too complicated and expensive, but...that's pretty much the closest you can get to perfect custom fit jeans.

not at all.. hollister jeans are pretty much the only things that fit me, because there one of the cheapest places that i've found that make cute size threes (because everywhere else makes twos and fours! GR) besides a&f, where fours fit okay because i dont like them tight anyway ha.

Thats exactly why I stopped buying jeans from Hollister and American Eagle. I only get my jeans from Express now because jeans from there are such great quality, but theyre not that cheap.

What? They had a buy one, get one half off deal oh jeans AND they had a coupon for $30 off $75 purchase at one point (like, two weeks ago). And you tell me that's not cheap, when combining that? Gotta work the system, aiite?



Anyways, oh wow well I've tried n Hollister Jeans but they've never fit me. :? But I haven't tried on any recently. Last time I tried on a pair was like 1 year ago. They're kinda crap quality when I checked them out last time I went there last month.

Just be glad you got hips and a waist, and just wear a belt. Hollister jeans are supposed to be low-rise, aren't they?

American Eagle jeans are horrible, especially the guy's jeans! Express jeans for men are so much better in quality in terms of everyday jeans.

Ahah I mean if you don't have a coupon and theres no sale, theres no use in buying a pair of $60-$70 jeans. I'm too cheap to buy jeans without some kind of sale or coupon, but theres usually a pretty good deal at Express.

True, but they usually have sales though :] . Yea I probably wouldn't pay $60 for each. And they even had some $100 "premium" denim jeans, which weren't all that great, so I never thought those were even worth the money. If you're going to spend $100+ on jeans, might as well buy 7's or something, since they're not that much more expensive anyway.

That's why buy Levi's!
Hollister jeans do that. Ugh, I was looking for a size 3 because normally I am and the "model" says "your defientely a size 0" and hands me a pair. I try it on, it fit pretty well the first day. Then I put it in the wash and bam! It was too small for me to fit in. It was a waste of money.

I'd suggest Seven for All Mankind, but since this is a topic on Hollister jeans, I digress. Sevens are a lot more comfortable, in my opinion. I do have a pair of Hollister jeans, and the only way for me to keep them on my waist is to wear a belt. And besides, what guy out there doesn't enjoy low cut jeans on a girl ;)

I f*cking hate Hollister/Abercrombie jeans. I've tried them on before in a fitting room, and the are tight around your butt and legs to the point where my butt and legs look like a straight line, but around the waist, it's wide and loose. It's a nasty fit. And I have fairly wide hips. I'm not the only one complaining either. I've talked to other people about their jeans, and they have the same problem.
I don't have to worry though, because I never buy clothes from their stores anyway.

I hate Hollister jeans. I had to go up a size and then they were falling off my waist the entire time. They also ripped in the crotch after a few months. I want my $60 back asses.
