Does anyone know if you can get (real) Citizens of Humanity and/or Seven for all Mankind jeans in Beijing and if so, where and what do they cost? I tried Googling, but couldn't find any shops. They're so expensive in the Netherlands I'm thinking of waiting to get a new pair until my trip to China.
Thanks!

If you want "real" (which I assume means imported) jeans in China, they will be more expensive than at home. If you want fake ones, I can only speak of Lee jeans I bought. You can pick them up for about $5.00 USD. You can tell they are fake by the zippers and the amount of blue die that will come out the first time you wash them.

don't know about beijing, but i got a couple of pairs of sevens in shanghai that look good, didn't leach dye in the wash, and appear to be fairly real (after seeing everything here, who knows what's a real brand anymore?). 100 rmb each if you speak a meager amount of chinese. it's called taobao city or fengxiang market, 580 nanjing west road.
