Just came across a pair of J. Crew jeans I had from Fall 2004.
Guess what I found inside? A tag that reads "Made in the USA". I don't remember the jeans being made in USA, but whaddya know!
I distinctly remember buying these jeans. Paid full retail of $69.50, which I thought was crazy at the time.
So, lemme get this straight...Since then, J. Crew jeans production has shifted from the USA to Canada to China. And the price has gone up almost 50%.
Hmmmm, sketchy, eh???
