Gold Sign? Any opinions or thoughts?

They have them at that at a Lohman's store & they are @ $109 or so...
They fit & feel fabulous but I'm not sure I want to spend that much?

does anyone own these? what are your thoughts?

Thanks!!

I have the misfits.

Sadly, Goldsign doesn't seem to be popular at all, maybe just because they aren't well known since ppl don't see them on celeb's butt? When I hit my nord rack a few months ago, there were a bunch, and no one was even touching them... I personally like them though. They're really light and thin, and I feel like I'm not wearing anything. I bought them from revolve with 15 or 20% off coupon, so I paid around $150-160, I think. If you think they're worth for $110, I say go for it!!

I think some of the styles are cute, I just don't have access to them and absolutely will not buy a pair of jeans I haven't tried on.

It's from the same maker of AG jeans. I actually really like them. If they fit you great, I say get a pair. Good fitting jeans are priceless.

Thanks...I may wait until they go down a bit more. Retail at $275 or something like that....I tried them on yesterday & really flatters your back end!! You are right about them being light...they have a great trouser jean (for work purposes) that is super light & comfy!...for $109 I may have to wait...

ON that note...I tried on Joes jeans...about 30x & still don't know what the deal is with them...completely unflattering...pockets too small...general all around fatness in those jeans...all of the styles...

Magnolia: are those the higher end of the two? I think I read something along that line that they were the same company...

i think he just wanted to create a different line without the AG name, different back stitches and stuff. i think i read that gold sign was "hand stitched" but i've never read about one line being more "higher end" than the other (ie paige and city of angels), although i'd say that if they were marketed as such, gold sign would be the higher end line. the price point is a little higher than ag (but not by much at all, maybe $30 on average.)

I think the first time I heard of Gold sign was when I saw a pic of Many Moore wearing them. They looked really good on her!

Thanks for the info ladies! I'm just always on the hunt to have some "other" types of jeans...I love TR & SFAM but want to "expand" my horizons a bit & also have some jeans that I can wear to work...

The stitching on the trouser pair I tried on yesterday was really different...it looked handstitched but that's probably just the way it was machine stitched. Not sure how I would hem them either...

Adriano Goldschmied sold his AG line and created Goldsign, so one brand is not really higher-end than the other (think Jarome Dahan leaving SFAM to start COH). I remember reading that the reason the jeans are so soft is that he uses supima cotton in the jeans.

ah...seems kind of weird to have a line called AG that no longer really stands for anything, huh
