Okay ppl. buying jeans

So i got paid few days back, wanted to go out and splash out on some jeans. Went to APM in Kwun Tong, and man was i dissapointed. Went to Esprits first, cos i quite like the style of their jeans. But wen i was looking through, they didnt have any boot cuts. fair enough, i can live without boot cuts. but then i notcied that the longest length they had was like 32. i was like "no way!" so i asked the sales there, and she was like "yeh, 32 is the longest we have. usually ppl wear oversize so that its long enough". wot there hell!! i see loadsa of 6ft ppl in hk, so why da hell does Esprit only have 32 length? that just sucks. so yeh, ne idea where i can get some nice boot cuts?? man, i miss my top man, BASE, Envy back in UK.

Oh yeh, i also went to bauhaus thinking that maybe they'll have some. altho i kno its hella expensive there, i thought oh wells, as long as i like them. but no. NO DAMN boot cuts. they only have those tight legging fits or woteva u call them. i guess theyre the trend in hong kong, but i just dnt like them. arghhhH!! oh btw, im a dude, b4 anyone thinks im a girl. lmao!!

Hi a 6fter here. I know this may sound a bit daft, but try a Giordano or a Bossini. They may have something long enough.

Isnt Zara just for the ladies?? well, guessed i never been in Zara b4. but hey, if they got boot cuts, im in. Man, wen ppl see me wear boot cuts, they must think im a weirdo. lol. is it expensive in zara?? cos my wage is proper shit. lol.

im pretty sure giodano and bossini will have long enuf jeans too. but its just that their cuttings arnt really that nice. but cheers man.

had dinner at Tai Po "Gai See". dunno what u call it. is not the fish market. neway, saw this guy walking pass, and from wear i was sitting at the time, i could only see the top half of his body. It looked like he was walking quite weird. then i saw his bottom, and he was wearing those really tight jeans things, where the crotch area was like closer to his knees than his actual crotch. thats y he cud only take small steps if u know wot i mean. What the hell!! buy jeans that fits!!

oh, and btw, wheres the closest Zara near Kwun tong? cheerios

Looking Beyond Kwun Tong

You can find jeans for all sizes including 6 ft tall people - but you have to go to areas like Times Square, Festival Walk, Ocean Terminal, Harbour City etc. as stores typically don't carry a full range - as they base the stock on their expected local market. I use to shop in Kwun Tong as I lived nearby and I frequently would ask the store to contact another store or check in the computer where the stock was available as all the major stores can see the stock of other stores as they are conneced via computer. frequently the store even calls and either has the stock sent to their store or can place it on hold for you at the other store.

This includes Esprit, Levi's and Zara, Samuel and Kevin, Baurhaus etc....

Try Diesel or Sevens (both can be found in Seibu, Lane Crawford). Brands from overseas are more likely to have longer lengths (sorry can't be of more help, I'm not male, haha!)

^ thanx guys. cherry girl, uve helped alot already. girls are better at this than guys neway. lol.

Alby, yeh, u defo can find jeans for 6ft ppl thats for sure. i mean 6ft isnt really THAT tall neways. but i mainly mean that its hard finding boot cuts as it seems that hk guys dnt really tend to wear them.
