I hope they have better prices than the Levi outlet store at Bicester Village. After checking the ridiculous prices I was back out of there pronto. They have a GAP there too - should have looked...

I've just got back from the US a few weeks ago, $40 each in the outlet store, as much as $70 in a real Levis store, but in Macy's jsut down the road they were $30-45 as well. Exchange rate is about $1.50/3-ish. They had umpteen different numbers, I had to get the girl in the shop to help me figure it all out,I wasn't aware mankind needed so many different types of jeans. She nearly dropped one when I said they're more like $100 over here. Mrs Rod can even get ones that fit her without looking like clown trousers at the top. Ended a rich vein of humour there, alas, but I digress...

PM me with exact style and size if you want me to send you some.
I'll try to get an exact cost.

I've seen even more shocking prices on Lee jeans in Australia a number of years ago. In Canada they're reasonable quality budget jeans - the sort of thing you might get if you couldn't afford even the Levis, and more often found in workwear shops than department stores - usually at about $25-$30CAD/pair (which would have been equivalent to £12 or so at the time). In Australia they were going for $200AUD!

I'd rather go naked
