Looking for cool looking stage jeans

Im fed up of buying somthing from Burtons or Riverisland and then seeing a punter turn up in the same top or jeans.. my fault for going to the obvious retailers

Im looking for that classic/modern rock feel ....

Anyone come accross anything decent .... give me a shout

modern stuff is well catered for on the net but older stuff is a challenge. Try going to towns that are still living in the past. A trip to Halifax might do the trick - it's like going back 20 years!!!!

A good tailor would knock you up some pretty fancy gear if you say gave him some pairs of jeans to cut up and re-sew back togther. It all depends what you want. There's some really nice shirts about with pearl buttons, a bit of extra trim from said tailor and they'd be rockin'

There's an Amercian site here, but looking at these belts it's pricey.

Hi Call me DIVA , had the same issue - lack of image and some rather cheeky comments about dressing too casually and I think I was referred to as somebodies grandma ( the cheeky gits) , So we approached a designer who modifed some clothers for us quite cheaply and now we are all blingy and co-ordinated .
