Honestly folks, needed some new baggy jeans like yesterday. Everyone’s rocking ’em and I figured, hey, PacSun’s gotta have solid ones. So I kicked off this whole ‘where to actually buy PacSun baggy jeans’ mission. Started simple, figured I’d just pop into my local mall, easy peasy. Walked straight to where the PacSun used to be. Empty space. A perfume kiosk sitting there. Dang. Wasted gas and like 30 minutes right there.
Alright, no panic. Figured ordering online would be smoother anyway. Fired up my laptop. Went straight to the PacSun site, obviously. Searched “baggy jeans”. Tons popped up, cool. Picked a washed black pair I loved the look of. Size? Oh man, confusing. Washed out blue? Check the product page. They list inseams kinda separate from waist sizes, whatever. Measured my best-fitting pair, guessed a 30×32. Added it to cart.
Checked out… and got slapped with a shipping fee. Not huge, but like eight bucks? Annoying. Remembered I ain’t got Prime or nothing, so it was either pay it or hunt free shipping. Searched online for a PacSun promo code. Found one supposedly for 20% off first order. Typed it in. “Invalid”. Tried another. “Expired”. Drove me nuts. Gave up and paid the shipping. Confirmation email pinged, but honestly? Felt kinda meh about the whole online hassle.
But while I was already deep in the online weeds, figured I’d see what else exists. Checked the usual big department stores online:
- Some had PacSun labeled stuff, some had just generic “baggy”.
- Prices seemed… higher? Or maybe just different styles.
- Shipping costs were all over the place too. One place wanted like fifteen bucks? Nah.
Even tried some specialty jeans sites. Weird sizes, super expensive. Felt way overkill for just some basic baggies. Plus, returns looked complicated. Ain’t nobody got time for that.
Here’s the thing though – I actually needed the jeans kinda quick? Got a trip coming up. Couldn’t wait the 5-7 days for the PacSun order. Had this lightbulb moment: Maybe the PacSun inside one of those big department stores? Got in my car again. Drove to the next town over, bigger mall. Headed to Macy’s first. Wandered menswear forever. Found PacSun section! Jackpot? Eh… saw hoodies, some tees. Jeans? Mostly skinny fit, few cargos. Asked some tired-looking clerk. She shrugged, “We got what’s out.” Drove to JCPenney next. Found a PacSun shop-in-shop! Checked the denim wall. FINALLY! Saw actual baggy styles. Not the washed black I ordered online, but a nice medium blue. Grabbed 30×32. Held ’em up. Looked good enough. Tried to scan the tag at one of those little kiosks – machine busted. Walked to the main checkout line. Guy rang it up. Price was… okay? Not great. Just paid it cause I needed jeans now. Walked out feeling accomplished, finally.
Weeks later? My online PacSun order showed up. Tried ’em on. Fit was… honestly, slightly off? Good, but not perfect. My dog needed meds at the vet that afternoon, so returning them online felt like climbing a mountain. Just shoved the unopened package in my closet. Maybe sell ’em later? Whatever. Lesson learned? Getting specific PacSun baggies? Might be easier online if you know exactly what you want and ain’t rushed. But checking inside big stores like JCPenney? Crucial backup plan if you need ’em fast or wanna actually feel the fabric. Online prices can be better, especially with promos, but man… finding a working code sucks sometimes. Anyway, closet’s now got baggy jeans. Mission accomplished.
