Which should you buy?
At the same $790, price is off the table; pick the denim character you want. Choose the Tom Ford if you value selvedge construction and a heftier, more substantial fabric that ages with wear. Choose the Givenchy if you'd rather have a lighter mid-weight jean with a sleek, sharply tailored slim cut. Both use luxury sizing that runs close, so consult each size guide before committing.
