Wow....you guys seem to have a lot of money to spend on jeans! I usually buy from where ever. I don't like paying more than like $25 for jeans unless they're awesome. I don't bother with how long they are as most mens jeans are too long for me anyway. I just cut them. Works for me....
For sure!?
I  an say ALL of my pants are from Old Navy cheap about 15 bucks if you get it on the right day, I get my straight legged skinny jeans in the womens, Diva in short or my baggy jeans in mens loose or painter. I'm a 38/26 so I feel the pain bro but insanely enough you can order em online or just scrounge in the store.

A decent Goodwill or Salvation Army will usually have all sorts of sizes and brands, all in one place arranged by size in most cases, and they're also cheap, of course.

A size too long might just be ok, though - I've been getting 30x30, because it seems like the right length, but my mom saw me try a pair on in a store and said she thought they were too short.  I'm not sure which of us is right.  (they didn't come in a 30x32, so I got that size anyways, but...)

I found a bunch of stuff on sale on the Hollister site (the only time I went into one of the stores I walked right back out because I couldn't *see* anything), but it looks like it might only go down to a 28x30?  Or maybe that's just what they've got left in the couple styles I clicked on.

I like shopping for guys jeans, and I like that it's actually possible to do so online - with women's completely random seeming sizing, you never know what you'll get, but if you only try one size, it'll almost always be the wrong one.  Men's?  Chances are that it'll fit.

Kohls and Target is where I normally get my jeans at. I used to buy Converse jeans but after jumping off a building and out of a car, they tore too easily, so I started going to other stores.

Yeah...I haven't been to an Old Navy in years. I usually go to Marshalls or Ross or something as well. Bealls outlet (as clothing store here in Fl) has some really good deals. Jeans for about $10-15.

Thanks for all the replies guys.  I'll have to keep some of these in mind next time I need to get some jeans.  I hadn't thought of some of these places before, so thanks  :)

I get my jeans at Kohls.  They have Levi jeans there, which are the only pants I've found that are both durable and fit me well, and they're significantly cheaper than buying them directly from Levis.  They're always too long for me, but I either just walk all over the back of them or I get my mom to hem them for me. :)

I used to hem pants back in high school, but I thought it looked ridiculous and eventually the hem fell out. I just cut them now. It's easier and it doesn't fall out. But then again, I'm not at the height of fashion, either.  ;D

Oh absolutely! I love Bealls Outlet!

I shop at a store called Buckle... but the length of the jeans is always too long. I recently got tired of having to roll them up, and decided to hem them all. So I spent a weekend doing that, and now I don't have to worry about it.

You'd be hard pressed to find a pair of guys' jeans that fit in the waist and the legs, no matter how much that sucks. So I would just get jeans that fit in the waist and hem the legs to the appropriate length, if you know how to do that (if not, look it up on Google. If you have no sewing skills whatsoever, get a tailor to do it).

Target works for me when they have sales. They have skinny jeans but they don't overly accentuate your *ahem* ass or your hips. I usually get them a size bigger than I truly need. It straightens out my slight curves and I can wear belts with them.

If you like your jeans really loose and a kind of standard wash, Old navy works pretty well, guys or girls section.

I go to Topman, i know they have a USA website as well, they do leg lengths as short as 28" but they only do them in a 26" waist. However im not even 5ft 3 and the 30" length fit me well enough.
