Anyone know where to find American-style jeans? I'm sick of going to shops around here and finding Korean-style jeans that are tight around the thighs.

I need those nice loose fit jeans you can find in the states... anyone know of a place?

Giordano and WhoAU both have jeans that should fit, unless you're fat. I have never had problems buying jeans here and I am not a skinny guy.

Levi's in Costco. 30,000. Two kinds. 501's and something else. I got both!!

I don't like Korean Jeans that look legit until you flip them over and there are weird velcros or embroidered patches on the back, or rips or patterns that make you question gender specificness.

On another note, Costco sells Levis and Kirkland brand jeans. Never heard of Kirkland making clothing, but it's there. Also there is a Vintage Outlet in Jongno somewhere, I was there once, but can not remember where it is, they sell loads of jeans, but you might not like the fact that they have been worn previously.

WHOAU sells some looser fit jeans. I bought a pair from there and am pretty happy. Their sizes run up to 32.

i get my jeans at Emart or Lotte mart. you'd be surprised. there are jeans there without sequins and embroidery. 20,000 - 30,000 won. a steal.

Costco! Yeah short fatso sizes and I'd say seriously prewashed as in used.

OP--Spend an afternoon in Songtan, near Osan Airbase and I'm sure you will find what you are looking for.

There is (or was) a shop at the first bus stop going into Itaewon from Noksapyong. it was/is in the alley full of shops and it was the first shop on the right as you enter the alley.
Straight leg and baggy, 15,000 to 25,000 a pair, depending on the brand.
