OMG! All of this talk about R&R jeans ripping is freaking me out. Is there a current thread open that tells which jeans are prone to rip? If that's the case, then I need to start buying other jeans and let my R&R's rest for a while.

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH THOUGH.

I don't think there is a thread with just the kind that rip, but I know that Xanex (personal experience as of today) and Vicodin are prone to rips.

I know the feeling. I lOVE the Xanex pink. In fact, I just traded a pair of Kurts for some Xanex Pink Costello, and now I am afraid that those will rip too..... What is up with R&R

How sad it is to have a sticky for "easily ripped jeans"... that doesn't really give R&R a good name despite their cool design. hahaha~~~ But I do agree it is absolutely necessary due to their bad denim quality. Maybe we can also add a voting feature to it so it gives us a rough idea of how often/likely it happens to a particular pair.

Perhaps there are just 'unlucky' pairs, like ones where the denim is defective? I have a pair of Vicodin crystal fleurs which feel thicker than some of my other blends...there should be a sticky though. So far, I think the 'rippers' are:

Vicodin
Xanax Pink (has this happened to the Blue too or no?)
Radion
Addict
Other 67/33 blends.
Anthrax.
