I purchased some yesterday, and when I got home I noticed they had a knick in them. I didn't notice it when I tried them on. All I could see is that finally some jeans went over my hips and arse and looked cute :lol:

My measurements : 34-29-42... so its absolutely difficult to find jeans that fit me, and don't let them be a premium brand because I normally can't even get them up my leg. But these fit perfectly... and they have a small, unnoticeable hole :sad:


Should I take them back and continue my devastating search? Or can I wear them and bask in my victory? :perplexed

And if I were to keep them, shouldn't it be okay because I get my jeans dry cleaned anyway, so its not like dry cleaning would agitate the hole as a washer would, right?

Can you exchange them? Or return them and then order a new pair online????

Girl you NEED those jeans.

I guess for me it would depend on the price, if I paid $30 from TJ Maxx I would keep them. If I paid $158 from Nordstrom them bad boys are getting returned.

I agree if you paid full price take them back for a return or exchange. If the store does not have another pair in your size order them online. You can order them from Neimans, Saks, Nordstrom and several other online stores. Girl, you have way too many options other than keeping a pair of premium denim jeans with a hole in them.

I would take them back. Just get the style name and color name (should be on the tag), and you can google them and find more online. I'm sure of it. If you need help digging, I'm here. :yep: Those jeans are too expensive to just let something slide like that.

I paid $70 for them. Not $30 but not full price. They didn't have anymore in my size (a small boutique) and there's a 10 day return window.

But yall don't understand how good they fit. Last night I was like "I'm taking them back tomorrow." I tried them on again and now I want to keep them. :wallbash:

I would take them back. If you bought them knowing there was a hole, that would be one thing...like if a salesperson had pointed it out to you or there was a damaged tag. But, if you bought them expecting them to be "firsts", I'd take them back. The boutique may be able to get more in that fit you.

Where is the hole? IF you love them that much and you don't think you will find them for that price...try getting the hole patched. I read a denim forum (similar to our hair addiction) and many of them have their denim patched.

I was thinking the same thing...since you didn't pay the usual price for Joe's maybe you could work with them.....now If I paid full price I would definitely be taking them back!!

That hole probably belongs there, :yep:, since today most jeans come distressed. You could always call or take them back to the store for more of a discount (most stores will do that). I personally would just keep them, I love Joe's jeans.

You could take them back and see if they will give u a discount or a partial refund. If something is damaged most stores will give u a partial refund. I know how u feel :sad:

You paid $70 for a pair of Joe's jeans!!??!! Girl, you got a deal!!! And if they fit as well as you say, I would not be concerned because because like I said, you got a deal. Try paying $150 + for JOe jeans...
