I had hopes for this new line within the D&C brand but the TSV is just another skinny denim legging.

I was surprised. I was expecting something different also. Nice looking jeans I just don't need another skinny pair.

so true! I really do think most of the TSVs lately are just overstocked items where inventory reduction is the name of the game. Probably meant to be sold earlier but hung up in the supply chain issue that occured over the last 1 1/2 years.

This is the time of year I do an inventory of my clothing. I was shocked to see how many pair of jeans I have. And I didn't pay a bunch of $$ for them. If I can find a way to neatly store them,I will be happy.

How many pair do I have---probably 200-300 hundred.

Interesting. How do you store them? Hanging? Folded? By color? How often do you wear them? Does that include different lengths (capri, cropped, etc.)? Different sizes?

I am soooo over pull-on jeans!

I was really hoping when they launched their new line, it would really be something new. By something new, meaning going back to their original fabrics, including normal denim zip-up jeans.

So tired of the stretchy, clingy stuff....!

I especially dislike pull up jeans. To me jeans have to have zipper and button. Just that. Improves it so much. Also have to have jeans in waist size. The fit is so much better. 90% of jeans at QVC are the pull up. Jeans are different then pants especially in the fit. If you walk in to a jean store, totaly different then what (especially Denim & Co) QVC sells.

Oh no! Not another jeans TSV! Of course, I am tempted to buy them; I've always loved jeans, but moreso lately.

That being said, I think back to the fact that I just returned the Denim & Company jeggings that were the TSV only a few weeks ago. I also returned the recent NYDJ TSV because the rise was incredibly high, the Susan Graver Regular Stretch Straight Leg Crop Jeans, and the Diane Gilman jeans from HSN that were a Today's Special a while back.

And the fact that I sometimes wear a 14 and sometimes a 16, you don't know how they're going to fit until you actually get them an try them on. But then there's the hassle of returning them when the 14 should have been a 16 or the 16 should have been a 14.

I'm probably overthinking this, but the best solution would be to pass on them and save myself the headache and the money!

@songbird I so agree! I do have a pair of LV pull on jeans & they are not flattering on the body. Altho I am slim they pucker. I have bought the majority of my Jeans instore. They do sell well on the Q thou. Its just my personal preference. I do think Boot Cut Jeans & Trouser Jeans work well on all body types.

The jeans overload is everywhere, and meanwhile here in southern Florida I am still hoping that some day it actually gets cool enough again for me to wear denim other than white. Even my full-length whites haven't seen the sun for months.

I have good luck finding jeans locally. I like to try on as well. Certain styles fit better than others. I have way too many now.

@sandy53 That is my problem. Some I store,like capris,etc. Some I just put away in totes in the storage area. At the price of jeans today,I hate to get rid of them. Some are hung,some are folded.

Re: jean overload

Sweet Kitties — Sun, 11 Sep 2022 14:22:41 GMT

None of them are the type I would buy. They're either cut too tight, too short, or just stupidly awkward looking. Now rips & holes.

Re: jean overload

kaydee50 — Sun, 11 Sep 2022 14:28:34 GMT

@wakefield64 Completely agree! HSN, ShopHQ, QVC, that's all they seem to sell ad nauseum. How many pairs of pants does one need?

Thanks for responding. I have jeans and capris stored away that no longer fit me (thankfully they are too large!) and I think this fall I am going to donate the whole lot. I'm tired of shuffling them around. I'm trying to embrace the idea that a few great fitting pairs are enough.

I was surprised to see these jeans, of all things as the TSV. How many people want beat up, torn jeans? I bought a pair a few years ago, and I've never worn them. The Canyon line is okay, but $$.

Re: jean overload

dorzie — Sun, 11 Sep 2022 18:43:06 GMT

100% agree on jean overload. I don't find these particularly flattering either even on the most attractive figures. I am a big fan of Denim & Co but not a fan of these (again) jeans.

Two of the five colors are distressed (have rips). . The other three are not. They are obviously giving a choice to different types of buyers. Nothing wrong with that.

I am an apple shape and I love the pull on jeans, the button up rarely fits me unless they have some elastic in them.
