A high-end denim jeans brand. True Religion jeans feature the trademark Japanese hiragana 'hi' or 'ひ' on its back pockets.

Authentic trues are often horrendously expensive, especially when bought anywhere other than in the United States of America.

Their target market seems to be people who have gigantic legs because a big, big majority of the jeans they manufacture are straight or bootcut fitting (Billy, Bobby, Ricky, etc.), meaning anyone who wants the coolest designs and has an average male leg will need to buy a pair with an uncomfortably small waist size or else it will feel like walking around with cargos 2 sizes too wide. Either that or wear a belt for the rest of your life. Even slimmer jeans such as Nathan are as loose-fitting if not more so compared to Levi's 514 Slim Straight.

Their jeans tend to stretch and fade slightly more than other brands such as Levi's depending on whether they are 'Big T' or 'Super Big T' and which colour you choose. The quality longevity really isn't all that incredible unless you want to constantly go the extra mile to care for these jeans. That being said, when a good-fitting pair is found, True Religion's are among the most comfortable jeans to wear for any occasion.

At the end of the day, unless you are in love with the designs and have found a good fitting pair to buy, there is little reason whatsoever to shell out more than $150 for a pair of these jeans. btw they make ur ass look big.
1: "See that nammer over there with the trues?"
2. "Yeah I'm getting sick and tired of seeing these kind of people wear such expensive jeans and treat them like that."
1: "What do you mean?"
2: "Firstoff, he's 5'5" and the inseam on those is clearly at least a 34. See how wrecked the ends are? Secondly, he's wearing a goddamn North Face vest with that. I think we can both agree that that those two combine for one of the worst wardrobe combinations in history. It's a waste of a nice pair of jeans."
