Lucky Brand Men's 221 Original Straight-Leg Jeans - Classic Fit Denim Pants for Casual Wear, Work & Everyday Comfort

The ex still wears these five + years after I bought them for him. Swears no other jeans fit him like these. I sent him the link to these (the pair I bought) when he complained about not being able to find jeans. He didn’t like the price, whelp ?‍♀️The fit of the jeans is great. They are Lucky Brand, after all. But they were shipped in some sort of paper machete package that smells like poop. I’ve washed these pants 4 times with pinesol and tide. 4 times and they smell worse after each wash.I can’t walk around in crap smelling pants. Normally, I’m happy to crap my own pants and walk around without a care. But I’m not going to claim something I didn’t do myself. Change your packaging!I do love these jeans. However, they have problems. I don't know if Lucky is sending marginal products to some resellers of if some resellers are getting a hold of these via questionable means, but the quality is hit or miss. I purchased a pair several months back that have been working out just fine. The pair I bought more recently had issues. ALL of the belt loops were barely attached by just a few threads. After one wash and wear, the front left loop detached. Rather than going through the trouble of returning them and potentially getting another pair with problems, I went to a dry cleaner/seamstress who repaired them (restitched all belt loops) for a whopping $7. If I was reviewing the seamstress right now she'd get 5 stars. The jeans, however, remain at 3 stars for the varying and unreliable quality.If you order these, check the zipper, button and belt loops before washing or wearing them to avoid troubles down the road. The denim is good quality and has just a bit of stretch. Color, pattern, fit... all good.Fit is good, jeans are comfortable. My only issue is with the smell of this pair. I have a blue pair that are just perfect, but this grey pair seems to retain a factory (dye?) odor. Been through the wash several times now. Maybe I received a weird pair or something, but since I have a perfectly fine blue pair, I’m assuming it’s the grey color causing the strangeness.Same size, same brand, same model - does not feel the same.... Mystery, I guessIm sure they'll shrink some. Very nice for the money.Color was true to picture, fit is trueThese were perfect and what I expected. The color is dark enough and what I needed. They seem to be of good quality and no issues or design flaws.Los jeans son talla 32, así como acostumbro a comprar. Sin embargo, estos jeans parecen ser talla entre 31 y 32. Si me quedan bien, pero se siente un poco más ajustados en comparación con otros jeans de la misma marca y corte. El color o lavado vienen un poco más claros que en la foto.
