I always buy cheap denim jeans for economic reasons. I just got wrangler jeans for cheap, when I brought them to my tailor, I asked if they are good and keep buying them.

He said they are acceptable but not real denim jeans. The tag says it made in egypt.

I'd say if you need to tailor your jeans beyond adjusting the leg length, then you should seek a different model.

Personally I am not very picky about brands. I've got Levi's, Lee, Wrangler, Uniqlo and all the way down to Lidl's "Livergy" house brand. They're all fine for the purpose of rugged, good looking pants. Fit is king with all of them.

Will some pricy Japanese brand raw jeans let you develop wear to your liking and mold to your body? Sure, and they will maybe last a very long time. But I'm not breaking regular jeans either so I don't feel the need to spend that kind of money.
