Reply to To replace Diesel jeans-they are dead to me. Have 5 pairs, one type, Larkee, systematically wore in the crotch area and the company won’t help me without a receipt for jeans bought in 2015. What’s a good replacement brand for dress jeans I can wear in the office? by Pretty1george

.... clothes are a wear item. A jacket maybe, that I could understand. But feeling upset that a company won't help you without a receipt for a pair of 7 year old jeans.... I dunno man.

I've never owned a pair of pants of any fabric that I haven't worn through the crotch or blown out the crotch in less than 3 years.

That said, and it's not jeans, but LuluLemon is hands down one of my favorite companies for clothes for men. I just had 2 pairs of pants replaced for free after 3 years because the crotches blew out.

1 of those pairs of pants was a replacement for a replacement that was also free like 3 years before that. So I've had 1 pair of pants that they have replaced twice after I have utterly thrashed them. Hard to argue with.

ABC Classic straight leg pants from Lulu. Cannot recommend them enough.

Reply to Trying to find a dining table like this.I saw this online and looks like it table too is granite or quartz.Any suggestions on any shops/websites where I can find one like this? by srajeevan89

This looks like someone painted a sheet of wood to look like stone. Hard to tell from the picture quality but that’s my guess.

Companies like Dekton and Neolith sell large format porcelain that looks similar but it’s better for walls and not countertops or tables due to chipping.

> have not paid for any

FTFY.

Although payed exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:

  • Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. The deck is yet to be payed.

  • Payed out when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. The rope is payed out! You can pull now.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.

Beep, boop, I'm a bot

I have multiple pair and now they are the only underwear I have in my drawer. I was gifted one pair a year ago, a few more pair a while later, and a few more for Christmas last year. (My roommate is a diehard b3nth fan and he gifts underwear to all of his male friends) So I have not payed for any of them, but they are pretty damn comfortable. According to my girlfriend, she doesn’t notice me “adjusting” as much now.

Reply to Longest lasting item in your life by SamuelsSteel

My British Services brand wrist watch.

It was a present for my 14th birthday, which I wear every day, now well into my 71st year.

It runs from -1 to +1 minutes fast or slow. So that makes life just that little bit more exciting.
