Don’t be shop-phobic about your jeans

By Mir

October 11, 2010

I get a lot of product pitches, and most of them go directly into the trash. But when I heard that Mike Rowe was the new International Shop Phobic Recovery Ambassador for Lee Jeans, I was laughing too hard to hit delete. Because how perfect is that? Mike Rowe—the quintessential man’s man—just putting it all out there about hating shopping but still, you know, wanting a decent pair of jeans.

Well. I happen to be married to a real man’s man, myself. I won’t get into his idea of jeans vs. my idea of jeans (hint: if there’s room enough for me to join you in those pants, they’re too big, honey). But when we were offered a pair of Premium Select Men’s jeans for him to try, I jumped at it. Guess what—we both really like ’em. He says they’re comfortable, and I say they actually fit, for a change. I daresay Mike Rowe would approve, too.

Know what else Mike Rowe would approve? Five lucky Want Not readers each winning a pair of Lee jeans! Choose a pair of the men’s Premium Select, or—if you’d rather—a ladies’ pair of Slender Secret jeans, instead. If you win, it’s totally up to you.

To play, first go review the contest rules and regulations, then come on back here and leave a comment on this post telling me which style jeans you’d like to receive by 8:00 a.m. Eastern (that’s 5:00 a.m. Pacific) on Thursday, October 14th, 2010 to be entered. Five winners will be selected via random number generation, and then Mike Rowe will bring some new jeans to your house.

Um, I totally made up the part about Mike Rowe delivering your new jeans. But it’s true that five of you will get free jeans. I promise. Go!

Leandra on October 11, 2010 at 2:42 pm

I want the jeans that have Mike Rowe in them, but that’s not part of the contest is it? Harumph. In that case I would like the men’s premium select jeans, please.

Slender Secret Joplin jeans–exciting!
Mom24@4evermom on October 11, 2010 at 2:52 pm

Love the slender secrets!
Amelia on October 11, 2010 at 3:26 pm

Slender Secret in Joplin for me.
And can we talk about how FABULOUS Lee jeans are for petites who have big hips and bottoms in proportion to their waists? (OR, as I prefer to think of it, TINY waists in proportion to their hips? :)). LOVE them. LOVE LOVE them.
Daisy on October 11, 2010 at 3:26 pm

men’s premium select, if I am the lucky winner. That would make my husband the lucky guy – or may my 18 year old. It will depend on who is nicest to me that day.
Erika on October 11, 2010 at 3:27 pm

Those Slender Secret boot cuts look quite lovely, I think!
Diane on October 11, 2010 at 3:30 pm

Men’s premium select jeans please – my husband definitely needs a new pair. Thank you!
Shirley on October 11, 2010 at 3:31 pm

Oh Mir – Thank you for this offer (Thanks to Lee as well) !! The thought of jeans that would actually fit my hubby is well . . . EXCITING!!! The fact that I wouldn’t have to drag him to the store is . . . FABULOUS! Not having to listen to him complain about the cost. . . PRICELESS!!!! I hope I win!
Kate on October 11, 2010 at 3:31 pm

Slender Secret!
Lisa on October 11, 2010 at 3:32 pm

I love my husband, but I want the slender select for ME! (plus, he benefits, right?)
Leslie on October 11, 2010 at 3:46 pm

Men’s Premium Select for the hubs, please. The jeans he currently wears are baggy enough in the tush area that I could probably get in there with him.
RachelJ on October 11, 2010 at 3:47 pm

The Men’s Premium Select Jeans for my husband.

Oops, should have been more specific in my comment (#57) – men’s premium select relaxed fit jeans. Sorry about that! 🙂
Nina on October 11, 2010 at 3:49 pm

I could totally use a new pair of jeans. I’m too big for my skinny jeans, but not big enough for my fat jeans.
Karla on October 11, 2010 at 3:51 pm

Slender Secret Joplin jeans please!! Just had a baby, if they can slenderize this then they are amazing!
Northside Food on October 11, 2010 at 3:53 pm

Jennifer B on October 11, 2010 at 3:53 pm

I just bought a pair of the Slender Secret and love them…so I guess hubby can use a new pair too!

Kyallee on October 11, 2010 at 6:18 pm

I’d be happy with either- but since my hubby is super-pickey about his jeans, I’ll just ask for the Slender Secret for myself!
D on October 11, 2010 at 7:23 pm

Forget the jeans, just give me Mike Rowe!
Joanne on October 11, 2010 at 7:24 pm

Mary Ann on October 11, 2010 at 8:15 pm

Forget about my husband — I need new jeans! He says he doesn’t have any, but I do the laundry around here and he has about 6 pairs.
Robin on October 11, 2010 at 8:17 pm

Slender Secret Joplin would be so great!
Kassie on October 11, 2010 at 9:37 pm

My husband has gotten 3 new pairs of jeans in the last few months. I haven’t purchased a new pair in well over a year. So I’d say I want the slender secrets Keller jeans.
Jen on October 11, 2010 at 9:37 pm

My husband actually just lost over 100lbs (why is it so easy for men?), so he REALLY needs new jeans. That belt just can’t take in so much fabric…
Tina on October 11, 2010 at 9:37 pm

I’d LOVE to get some for me, but since I’m pregnant and not looking to wear normal jeans for awhile, I’d love to win my husband the regular straight leg pair.
Michele Randall on October 11, 2010 at 9:42 pm

Slender secret for me! Thank you!
Christina on October 11, 2010 at 9:48 pm

It’s my husband’s birthday TODAY! (Really.) Definitely a pair of jeans for him: Premium Select Relaxed Fit Men’s Jeans to be exact.
Laura on October 11, 2010 at 9:58 pm

Not since the 80’s have I found myself agonizing over choosing a pair of Lee Jeans. They’ve really amped up their styles over the past couple decades. I found myself torn between the Slender Secret styles, but really love the Keller boot cut in Spy! Big plus; I totally love Mike Rowe!
Stephanie on October 11, 2010 at 10:05 pm

It’s my sweet husband’s birthday tomorrow…so I would choose some men’s Lee jeans!
Krissy on October 11, 2010 at 10:09 pm

Men’s jeans please 🙂
tory on October 11, 2010 at 10:13 pm

I have NO jeans that I like. I’d choose the Slender Secret Joplin Jeans.
Katie on October 11, 2010 at 10:22 pm

Slender Secret please! That sounds like exactly what I need.
Dianna on October 11, 2010 at 10:22 pm

I would love the Slender Ladies jeans.
Julie Ludwig on October 11, 2010 at 10:34 pm

Slender secret joplin for Mama please!
Deena on October 11, 2010 at 10:49 pm

Either one of us could use the jeans, but I’m going to go with the ladies style because he doesn’t know about this.
Lindsey on October 11, 2010 at 10:51 pm

I would looooove the slender secret keller bootcut…. sassy!
Carrie Hellbusch on October 11, 2010 at 11:06 pm

Ladies jeans please! I could use a pick me up after this birthing this baby!
Brunette on October 11, 2010 at 11:44 pm

slender secret kellers, puh-lease!
Debbie on October 12, 2010 at 12:15 am

Slender Secret, please (Keller).

Thanks, Mir!
Christina on October 12, 2010 at 1:03 am

Slender Secret Keller Bootcut for me please! I happen to be rather shop-phobic myself! Hubby has no problem finding jeans that fit as long as he can find short ones (29!).
Leslie on October 12, 2010 at 1:56 am

Thank you Mir (and Lee!) for offering this contest! The Premium Select Relaxed Straight Leg Jeans would be fantastic for my husband, especially as he tends to avoid purchasing new pants until he has literally worn through his current ones. Sigh. But these look wonderful!
Cheri on October 12, 2010 at 2:32 am

I’ll go with the Men’s pair, I guess. My husband could use a new pair of jeans more than I could. The relaxed fit, please and thank you!
Brigitte on October 12, 2010 at 5:44 am

I selfishly would like the Slender Secrets for myself. We’ll see if they’ve finally invented a “tummy control” area that DOESN’T just roll down under my tummy.
Bonnie on October 12, 2010 at 5:51 am

Slender secret please.
Catherine on October 12, 2010 at 6:54 am

Slender Secret jeans sound good to me.
Heather on October 12, 2010 at 7:00 am

How about the Ladies’ Emily Jean? Very nice! And I’m swooning! Mike Rowe! Mmmmmmm….:-)
Erin on October 12, 2010 at 7:10 am

Wow, I don’t know which to pick – the Slender Secret Bootcut or the Emily Straight Leg. They both are so cute! And I would get a secret giggle wearing the Emily jeans while hanging out with my Emily daughter. 🙂
VERONICA on October 12, 2010 at 7:11 am

Relaxed fit for the hubby would be great, I wonder what he looks like in jeans that fit? hmmm
Jessica on October 12, 2010 at 7:19 am

My husband desperately needs a new pair of jeans. The Relaxed Fit would look nice on him. Thank you!
Alexis on October 12, 2010 at 7:35 am

Definitely jeans for my man…a refreshing change from his infinite supply of cargo khakis!
heidi on October 12, 2010 at 7:52 am

Jeans for the husband please! He just realized he has ONE pair. And I know you can guess if they fit properly. Also, they were purchased about 13 years ago. My husband actually said to me the other day, jeans don’t go out of style. Ah, but the styles do change!
ADifferentLaura on October 12, 2010 at 8:05 am

I need those slimming jeans more than I need this danish I’m eating, but hey, you get what you get… 🙂
Jess on October 12, 2010 at 8:35 am

The slender secret jeans! I’ll need them post-baby.
Christine on October 12, 2010 at 8:36 am

You had me at Mike Rowe! I’d love some new jeans – would love him to deliver them even more!
Candi Slezak on October 12, 2010 at 8:37 am

I don’t have a man to buy jeans for, but Mom here could use some new ones!
Cindy on October 12, 2010 at 8:43 am

I would love to get the men’s premium select for my 17 yo son. Thanks!

Slender Secret – I need jeans soooo bad right now
Em on October 12, 2010 at 8:48 am

Oh man! I have to choose first? Me or him, me or him…. I guess the man jeans because my husband seems to think the gaping hole in the crotch is ok as long as he is only mowing the lawn. Out in front of our house. In broad daylight (try as I might, he won’t mow in the dark). Maybe new jeans will force him to move his old but not yet gaping jeans down the line to lawn mowing jeans and the ones that could get him arrested on public decency charges into the trash once and for all.
Suzanne on October 12, 2010 at 8:49 am

The Slender Secret Joplin Jean…he can buy his own jeans! 🙂
Shei F. on October 12, 2010 at 8:49 am

Please enter my name in the contest for a new pair of Premium Select for my hubby, who always does without in the new clothing dept. Thank you!
Jen on October 12, 2010 at 8:49 am

Slender Secret Keller Bootcut Jean!!!
Alison on October 12, 2010 at 8:56 am

If everyone knows, is it still a secret? Anywho – ladies Slender Secret please!
kakaty on October 12, 2010 at 9:17 am

I could really, really use a new pair of jeans. I almost bought the slender secret jeans when they had that one day sale but I forgot before the sale was over. I would love to try the Slender Secret Scott Straight Leg jeans.
Lori on October 12, 2010 at 9:17 am

Hmm. Jeans for hubby or jeans for me??? I’ll go with Premium Select Mens Jeans. Thanks so much!
Maryanne on October 12, 2010 at 9:19 am

I would love the Slender Secret, although it is not a secret that I am not slender.
Tink on October 12, 2010 at 9:21 am

My man needs some premium select jeans, please.
Betsy on October 12, 2010 at 9:24 am

Slender secret jeans please!
Whitney on October 12, 2010 at 9:25 am

Slender secret! My husband has too many clothes already!
Candy on October 12, 2010 at 9:30 am

Slender Secret sounds good.
Selena on October 12, 2010 at 9:36 am

Premium Select Relaxed, please & thank you.
Betty on October 12, 2010 at 9:50 am

I think that I need Slender Secrets, please!
Becky on October 12, 2010 at 9:50 am

Great contest!! Slender Secret please!!
Scott F on October 12, 2010 at 9:58 am

I was just telling my wife that I need some new jeans! The only pair I have left is threadbare with some holes in the knees. Now I know, people pay extra for that look, but I am 40 years old and there are times that wearing holes in my jeans is fine and other times when it is just not OK.

Pick me for the new men’s jeans, please! 🙂
Aimee L. on October 12, 2010 at 9:58 am

Though we could both use new jeans, it’s much too hard to buy jeans for me without trying them on in person, so I’ll go with the Premium Select for my hubby! Thanks!
Ani on October 12, 2010 at 10:08 am

hubs has lost so much weight and is between sizes, he could really use some new jeans!
Nancy S on October 12, 2010 at 10:17 am

I would love a new pair of Slender Select straight leg jeans for me! I’m wearing a pair right now!
Liza on October 12, 2010 at 10:23 am

Slender Secret Emily straight-leg please! Also, I don’t know who Mike Rowe is.
Jenny on October 12, 2010 at 10:34 am

Oooh, Slender Secret Emily, please!
christine on October 12, 2010 at 10:59 am

we could both use a new pair of jeans! so either one will work here!
AndreaG on October 12, 2010 at 11:06 am

Husband for sure… if Mike Rowe delivered them, I’d need a divorce though…
Kelly on October 12, 2010 at 11:07 am

Although I really want some for myself – I’m going to say the guy’s jeans – the Premium Select Regular Straight Leg Jean – because he really needs them more than me.
Tafline on October 12, 2010 at 11:11 am

My man’s man could not be more shop-phobic! Please send the Premium Select Men’s Jeans for him to try – all his jeans are fraying and worn (besides not fitting him at all well).
Tricia on October 12, 2010 at 11:48 am

slender secret joplin pretty please!!
Lisa R. on October 12, 2010 at 11:53 am

I’d love the Emilys! Especially if they can make my butt look as cute as the model’s.
janet on October 12, 2010 at 12:12 pm

Jeans for the skinny husband with no butt. Maybe these will do the job!
Elizabeth on October 12, 2010 at 12:57 pm

Slender Secret, please! Thanks, Mir!
DawnA on October 12, 2010 at 1:01 pm

Hubby is very picky about his jeans. Would love to to give these a try.
Rebekah on October 12, 2010 at 1:05 pm

I would love new jeans for my husband. I’m tired of seeing his knees.
Jennifer on October 12, 2010 at 1:28 pm

Slender secret bootcut….yum. Thanks, Mir!
Karen on October 12, 2010 at 1:53 pm

The ladies’ Slender Secret Emily Straight would be nice to win.
Stacy on October 12, 2010 at 2:58 pm

I should totally get jeans for my husband, but I wear them more than he does, so Slender Select it is!
cindy on October 12, 2010 at 3:28 pm

Slender Secret jeans for ME!
BabyNurse on October 12, 2010 at 3:45 pm

I would love the Emily Slender Secret Straight Leg Jeans. Awesome prize to try to win. Thanks Mir!!
Cathy on October 12, 2010 at 3:45 pm

I would love a pair of slender select jeans!
Kathy on October 12, 2010 at 4:36 pm

Joplin Slender Secret Jeans would be a great addition to my very limited wardrobe. Thanks!
jaime mallett on October 12, 2010 at 4:41 pm

need slender secret!!!!
Beth R on October 12, 2010 at 6:48 pm

While I’d be the most happy if I won Mike Rowe, I’ll take a pair of the ladies’ jeans as a nice consolation 🙂
Rebecca on October 12, 2010 at 6:51 pm

Slender Secret Keller Bootcut Jean
Nina on October 12, 2010 at 7:11 pm

Lee’s are the ONLY brand of jeans that ever fits me properly. Slender Secret Keller Bootcut for me please. Thank you
lisa on October 12, 2010 at 7:15 pm

I want the slender secret Keller jeans for me! Hubby’s gonna have to find his own
Michelle on October 12, 2010 at 8:29 pm

I’m about to wear a hole in the only pair I like – it would be awesome to win new ones! Thanks!
may on October 12, 2010 at 9:25 pm

Hmm, I can’t really tell the difference between the Joplins and the Kellers. I guess the Kellers. (And there was never a chance my husband was getting the free jeans! Ha!)
lisabug on October 12, 2010 at 10:55 pm

I would choose the Men’s Premium Select Regular Straight Leg Jean in Vintage Stone Denim…phew, that was a mouthful! Preferably delivered by a shirtless Mike Rowe 😉
Nancy on October 12, 2010 at 11:45 pm

I would love to win the jeans. Love your blog. You are so funny. Every once in a while I will add something funny such as in my holiday gift guide and giveaway at http://www.supersavingmommy.com/2010/10/03/holiday-gift-guide-giveaway-2/
but you are consistently hilarious. I am actually a newbie blogger and would love to have posts like yours instead of just regular ones.
laura on October 13, 2010 at 1:03 am

I’d love the slender select jeans please! but I have no idea, really. I’m in the midst of a successful diet, and have no idea what size I am.
Jill on October 13, 2010 at 8:58 am

I’d love the slender select jeans.
carolyn on October 13, 2010 at 9:03 am

Slender secret, thanks!
Mary B on October 13, 2010 at 9:20 am

Oh boy does my husband need new jeans, the Premium Select sound great! Are you sure Mike Rowe won’t deliver them 😉
Michelle Smiles on October 13, 2010 at 10:12 am

Oh how I need new jeans…my husband has many pairs. I have 1 that fits post baby (baby is 2 – hush up about that). Slender Fit would be fabulous!
Katherine on October 13, 2010 at 1:59 pm

I got so excited about this contest when I read that Mike Rowe would deliver the jeans. What a cruel tease! We love us some Dirty Jobs around our house. Appeals to mom, dad and the kids…

Hubby would love the pants and I’ll just sulk over here that Mike isn’t coming to visit.
Mayhem on October 13, 2010 at 2:10 pm

Slender Secret Joplin Jean— these look great!
Eva on October 13, 2010 at 4:46 pm

Someone I know would love Premium Select Menâ€™s jeans!
Brandi on October 13, 2010 at 4:59 pm

Slender Secret Emily Straight Leg Jean please!
curls on October 13, 2010 at 5:00 pm

Slender Secret……in a size larger than I’m now sorry to say
Renee B. on October 13, 2010 at 5:02 pm

Me me me! I want to win a pair of Lee Jeans. And if Mike Rowe comes inside of them, even better!
Maribel on October 13, 2010 at 5:05 pm

Slender Secret, please!
Karen on October 13, 2010 at 5:12 pm

I love LEE jeans! Slender secret, please!
Lisa on October 13, 2010 at 5:19 pm

I’d love a pair of either one! The hubs really needs new pants though so I’ll take a pair for him.
MamaChristy on October 13, 2010 at 5:34 pm

I’d love to get my man the Premium Select Menâ€™s jeans because who doesn’t want to look at a man’s nice behind in jeans? 🙂
Pam on October 13, 2010 at 5:43 pm

Woot! Jeans.
Rosie on October 13, 2010 at 5:44 pm

Count me in. I wear jeans every day, and let’s just say that I don’t have any jeans that fit me right now. Ahem.
Emily on October 13, 2010 at 6:11 pm

Slender jeans for me, please. Unless I can request Mike Rowe? He’s pretty.
Kristine on October 13, 2010 at 6:13 pm

Premium select for my hubby. His jeans are from before we got married, 7 years ago. Time to retire them!
mar on October 13, 2010 at 6:45 pm

Lee are my family’s favorite jeans – would like to try out their new jeans!
Laura F on October 13, 2010 at 6:53 pm

I’d love the slender secret Keller boot cut jeans.
Jennifer on October 13, 2010 at 7:07 pm

No man in my life, so I’d like the Slender Secret jeans for myself.
Kristina on October 13, 2010 at 7:39 pm

I could definitely use jeans that fit. I have an awful time finding jeans that fit. Sigh. Pleeeeeeeeease? 🙂
Sarah M. on October 13, 2010 at 7:44 pm

I would love a pair of Slender Secret Joplin jeans! Thanks Mir!!!
Faith on October 13, 2010 at 7:46 pm

Slender Secret Joplins for me please 🙂
Kris on October 13, 2010 at 8:36 pm

Would love a new pair of jeans! I’d choose Slender Secret jeans! Thanks.
Dana on October 13, 2010 at 8:51 pm

Men’s relaxed straight leg jeans. Hubby has lost some weight and could use a smaller size. Yay!
lizneust on October 13, 2010 at 9:24 pm

I’d be interested in the Comfort Fit Marian Bootcut Jean, but if the Slender Secret jeans are the only ones on offer, I would take those too!
Mar on October 13, 2010 at 9:26 pm

Since my husband doesn’t wear jeans, these would be all for me. And I actually really like Lee jeans. I went to Kohls and tried on every pair of jeans they had and Lee came out the winner. I like anything Comfort Fit. Maybe I need to try on some Slender Secret too.
Thanks for the chance!
Sherri on October 13, 2010 at 9:28 pm

I would love a pair of these! The slender style Keller jeans look nice.
Ruthie on October 13, 2010 at 9:46 pm

Slender secret would be the jeans of my choice. All the men at my house have moved on to homes of their own.
Jen Miller on October 13, 2010 at 10:05 pm

I’d love the Slender Secret Emily jeans!
Elsie on October 13, 2010 at 10:16 pm

I would like to win the ladies’ Slender Secret Keller Bootcut ones. Thanks.
Kayt on October 13, 2010 at 10:20 pm

My husband is crazy picky about jeans, but if the plus size is included in this giveway, I’m so there!
shawn on October 13, 2010 at 10:20 pm

I would love new jearns!!!!
Jo on October 13, 2010 at 10:29 pm

I would love to try the secret slender jeans!
Tonya on October 13, 2010 at 10:55 pm

I need some new jeans =)
Carolyn on October 13, 2010 at 11:09 pm

Since my hubby lost soooo much weight, I would love to present him with
a new pair of men’s Premium Select jeans!!!
Valerie on October 14, 2010 at 1:22 am

Slender Secret, please!
Tracy on October 14, 2010 at 7:54 am
