Title says it all....They're ok, not bad but what gives. The washes are Gap like and I don't know what you guys are raving about. I sell these from time to time and they go for real top dollar way better than COH , seven etc.... Can't complain about that part but perhaps it's the fit? Someone school me please.

fit, feel (fabric content) They seem to have a stretch to them like no other line out there. Look good and are comfortable at the same time. They also fit a wide variety of body types.
The more you buy the better the price! So check it out!

I couldn't help but laugh at the title--sometimes I feel the same way. I have one pair of Paige...I'm not particularly impressed with the fit or feel(even though they are real, not fake). Some of Paige's jeans are nice, but like you said, the wash isn't anything special. Most of the washes, that is...I'm partial to the porcelain blue (I think that's what it's called...)

Also to add to my last statement. I feel they are the premium denim line that targets older ladies , moms in their 40's and 50's. All the jappy moms in my town wear them. Paige also has that plus size line so i think they def go for that "mature" crowd. Sorry if i get anyone annoyed by that!

Looooove paige! Fit is perfection! I can order my size online and know that they will fit like a glove because paige is very consistant, plus, they create the perfect bum and legs! I guess I don't see anything wrong with the washes. They are never too flashy and always look classy!

my wife liked the fit of them, but i agree they are pretty boring. She ended up selling them because they were plain. I finally got her into diesel jeans and she loves alot of their fits and washes

Paige's probably look the best on me but the ones that I have are far from comfy....they stretch out too much at the waist and slide down as the day drags on.
Why stop now....I'm not a quitter!!!! More clothes please

For me, it's the fit and quality of their denim. Once you know which Paige's you like (Laurel Canyon, Hollywood Hills, etc.) and your size in Paige, you're pretty much set. I agree with everything apryl said: perfect, consistent fit (once you know yours, it's a cinch to buy online without worries, usually). And I do agree: never too flashy and always classy! I know that if I want a more 'edgy' or 'flashy' wash, I can look to R&R or TR, but Paige is my all time fave. Also, I never really thought of Paige as being a more 'mature' line (I'm in my early 20's)...but I do know what you mean, I guess. I see 'older' mom's wearing Paige's as well. Also, Paige does have a men's line of denim, though I don't really know anything about it.

I agree paige is probably more about fit than flash. I guess I would think of the target market as slightly more refined rather than mature although that could be the same thing. I think as you mature (fashion-wise, not age) you're not so much worried about plastering a logo on your bum as you are finding something that is flattering on you. You pay more attention to cuts and materials.

Since I've matured I've noticed that I have little tolerance for clothes that don't fit. This also means I don't try every trend like tunics with leggings, stirrup pants, skinnies, etc. I only wear tops that are tailored at the waist because that's what suits me.

^ yep, more fit than flash. i looove the quality of the denim, quality means a lot to me. i think they know what they're doing. they've got many loyal customers that keep on coming back despite their lack of flashy washes...doesn't that say something?
