CAPS All-Star PeyDaFool also tapped the stock as a particularly good fit:
I've never once heard anyone say anything bad about the way Joe's Jeans look or fit on them. The only downside is the price of the jeans. People will pay for quality and, as the economy improves, people will look to Joe's as a provider of fashionable, sexy jeans that will increase their level of attractiveness. Let's be honest here, you can't put a price on that.
