Been looking for men's jeans, and I can only seem to find them at extravagant prices. In LA I can usually get fairly stylish jeans for $50-60. Does anyone know where I can find jeans for around the same price in Seoul? Brand name isn't a factor for me, I just want simple jeans. Thanks!

Try Uniqlo. Several stores in Seoul.

Basic House has been pretty good to me from time to time.

If size is an issue, try Big Boss in Itaewon. Otherwise, Costco or E-Mart.

Another vote for Uniqlo. I also managed to find some good stuff at E-Mart, but it depends on what you want/are looking for.

Homeplus has great size, selection, and prices. I bought two everday jeans for about 8000 won, and some more "stylish" ones for 19,000. This was on the 3rd or 4th floor, where their cheaper stuff is.

I can't seem to find any 'boot cut' jeans at Homeplus, which is really my only criteria for jeans these days.

It depends, what size jeans are you looking for?

Namdaemun, go out exit 5 i think, walk straight for a bit then look down one of the little side alley-ways, they have Levi's there...probably fake but good quality for 50k.

I am a waste size 32-34, 185cm, Uni-glo in myeongdon had nothing that fit me well enough, also those big places in Dongdaemun seem to have a lot of jeans

My wife just waits for Sales in Department stores. I bought 3 usually expensive brands for 30-50$ or so. Not sure when the sales happen. I'd just keep an eye out. I also dont care for brand names but the price was right.
