Surprised there's not a thread for them yet. Anyone else here own any Unbranded denim? They aren't made quite as well as my more expensive denims, but for beaters I'm really digging my 101s bigtime so far. Only issue is the top button seems a liiiitle wobbly on its post. Anyone else own any that have the same issue?

if they hold up for you and are going to be your beater jeans then that's a up to you to decide if the value is there. however, the reviews i've read made them sound cheap, but I don't know if this is because they're made in Macau, if their selvedge fabrics are of an inferior quality or if they're sewn together poorly.
with that said, I have 4 pairs of made in China cheap Uniqlo selvedge jeans that serve as my beaters and have held up well. I wear these daily and I beat the crap out of them. I don't care if they get filthy or if my 2 yo decides he's gonna throw his breakfast all over my lap. the way I see it, if i'm going to pay Unbranded prices, inexpensive as they may be, I might as well wait for a sale and get a better pair at a steep discount (like the N&F stuff we just scored from Barney's) or some other made in the US brand.

I have a pair of unbrandeds, my first raws, and I like them for what they are. An affordable pair of jeans, with a nice contemporary western fit for which I only had to wait a week to have them delivered from Canada. I have no complaints with how they are stitched, they are holding fine. In fact, I like how unbranded flat fells their inseams, a much cleaner solution than the traditional overlock you would see on pricier options. Their indigo is pretty dark, looks almost black under certain light, I hope they will yield high contrast fades but so far they are proving stubborn faders. I get to wear them only occasionally during weekends, though.
