I would have been tempted to get them anyway and see if I could get used to the whiskering - but that might be a big mistake.

But I've never tried that and one runs the risk of ruining the jeans entirely... Second thought was that&nbsp; the 7FAMK "Dojo" style is somewhat similar and I believe those do come in a long length. Could be worth taking a look. Boo to weird whiskering in general!&nbsp;<br />Here's an example of the Dojos in a darker wash. Lots of lighter color choices though.&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.7forallmankind.com/dojo-au115y005.html">https://www.7forallmankind.com/dojo-au115y005.html</a>&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-you-find-perfect-jeans-but#post-1905071 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 16:40:06 +0000 Anonymous 1905071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That whiskering is too weird. &nbsp;I am still not finding the jeans I want either. &nbsp;I am sick to death of my skinnies and "girlfriend" jeans, and want something NOT a bootcut and more a true flare. But not too big of a flare. Ugh. I refuse to pay premium denim prices, and the usual denim stores (gap etc) have nothing . &nbsp;I usually burst out laughing at the 23's and 24's. &nbsp;As if. &nbsp;I like these jeans you've shown.....good luck with the hunt.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-you-find-perfect-jeans-but#post-1905065 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 16:31:32 +0000 Elizabeth P 1905065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-you-find-perfect-jeans-but#post-1905059 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 16:16:25 +0000 Angie 1905059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, <b>Janet</b>. You were right to leave them on the rack because of the whiskering.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-you-find-perfect-jeans-but#post-1905042 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 15:40:39 +0000 Janet 1905042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! IKR? 23? And here I am feeling like an amazon (and that's speaking kindly) because I'm looking for a 30 or 31.&nbsp;</p> <p>I wished I could ignore the whiskering. You can see it a bit in that stock photo, but the pair I tried were more pronounced, and I found it very distracting. I almost considered buying them anyway, wondering if I could dye them or something, but I was pretty sure that would be an experiment doomed for failure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-you-find-perfect-jeans-but#post-1905035 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 15:31:35 +0000 viva 1905035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What in earth is a size 23?????</p> <p>Love the look of those jeans.

I came home with three things I really like (including, yes, another scarf!), but this post is about one that was SO CLOSE.&nbsp;</p> <p>These Rag &amp; Bone mid-rise, wide-leg jeans were so great. Soft, not too heavy, the fit was beautiful, and there was abundant length (actually, a little too much, but I don't mind getting jeans hemmed once in a while because it is such a rarity to find jeans LONG). But they were on the one-off rack, and the whiskering was so odd -- it looked like it was emanating from my crotch in a starburst. And of course they were the only pair. So sadly, I left them behind. I've looked all over the interwebs and they're sold out everywhere (except for a lone size 23, yeah right). I could cry.&nbsp;</p> <p>If anyone spies anything out there fitting the same kind of description, let me know and I'll try it. I'm kind of sick of skinny jeans.&nbsp; </p>
