I purchased a pair of £150 jeans approx 7 years ago before Toast were taken over. I wore these jeans constantly for 5 years until they finally were done. My gosh did I get my money worth. Gutted I had to finally part with them - can't tell you how happy I was that Toast re realised the jeans for sale about a year ago. So delighted even though the price of the garment was now £180, I proceeded to buy 2 pairs.
Unfortunately I can tell that the quality and thickness of the jeans are not as good as my original pair. The thread is coming apart in areas and I just know that the knees will go in both at some point in the future.
What Toast did well apart from make clothing was make good quality clothing. This I feel has now been compromised.
Such a shame
