THE ALTERNATIVE: Coated Denim

J Brand 12″ Pencil Wax Coated Jean $198 USD @ Revolve Clothing
VS.
Gap Stirrup Legging Jean – Coated Black Wash $69.50 USD @ The Gap

I love the look of these J Brand Coated jeans, but couldn’t quite justify the price tag on them. Thankfully, I found that Gap has made a pair of black coated jeans as well. Although I find that the shine that coated denim has isn’t as apparent on the Gap jeans, they still have a nice sheen that makes them stand apart from a normal pair of black jeans.
