Unfortunately, I'm doing school full time right now with no job so my disposable income is quite small and I can't justify getting a new pair if my current pair is still ok although its needing more and more repairs.
Which is kind of a good thing because I'll just keep wearing my current pair and make it look even better lol. I miss the stiffness and color of brand new raw denim though.

It just sucks that all those small details that make the pair of jeans unique, skyrocket the price
Still hunting for a pair of 28 MIJ raws to finish off my collection!
Oh man, I was in your shoes as well during my 2nd/3rd year. Gladly internship and co-ops in my 3rd/4th year gave me a bit of disposible income to spend on jeans
