    I'll be honest and say I haven't bought any in a while, but I always had a lot of luck with Carhartt jeans. They had inseams 29" and up (maybe 28 but never saw them in store) and t…

    Believe me, it isn't impossible to look and talk to someone 'like a little girl'. Usually when a woman says this, it is usually because the other person is dismissive of the other …
