I just started shopping online. Where to buy pants?
Hi DUers. Simple question. I need a few pairs of slacks, a few pairs of jeans. Since I am new to the online-shopping thing, and hate eBay, I have stuck with Amazon. But not for clothing, mostly because it's so time-consuming to browse when it comes to pants. Is there just a simple way to find sites that sell size 12-14 pants/slacks/jeans/drawstring sweatpants? No brand names required, I just want pants by this weekend. And I don't know where to look.

Someone recommended Overstock.com, but they are as time-consuming to browse as Amazon.

Again, no eBay. Thanks.

1. Also
The reason I am asking here is because DUers always come through. But some info about me: I haven't set foot in a mall or big-box store in years. So I am kind of out of the loop on what stores carry the best prices. I also am 29, so I am also looking for bottoms that are kind of "cool" looking, a litle funky, but also some attire for office work. I'm not a hipster or into designer jeans, so hope that helps.

Pants FTW!

More suggestions appreciated! I forgot to throw in that I am a woman, if that helps. :)

8. that was going to be my suggestion as well
Their stuff is well made and generally classic in style so it should last for a long time.

11. That was my answer.
Great stuff, good prices that seem to be getting more competitive all the time, and hands down the best customer service. They even have live chat if you have questions. I LOVE Lands' End.

:thumbsup:

10. Well, the coolest thing about shopping online...
...is that you never need pants.
