Check out some of the highlights from our Twitter chat below.


@jochrisbanez: #aedenim What is the hardest thing about working with denim as a fabric?
@american_eagle: Hardest part is also the most fun part. There’s always an element of surprise because it’s such a science. #aedenim

From Jason on Facebook: Why are men’s jeans so ill fitted in the crotch and back? The pants always sag and cause guys to have no butt. #aedenim
@american_eagle: Guys often buy the wrong size. They tend to not want jeans to be as fitted as Women’s jeans. -CG #aedenim

@ZachFoley:  @american_eagle why did you discontinue the slim fit jeans for men? They were the only pants I wore. #aedenim
@american_eagle: The slim was discontinued to accommodate the new Skinny. Working on delivering a more updated Slim! -CG #aedenim

@HeyFash: @american_eagle How do Helen & Clint know what fits/washes are going to be in trend and sell well?? #aedenim
@american_eagle: As a designer, it’s part intuition and part research. But largely intuition. -CG #aedenim

@LeahMoreno: @american_eagle What inspired the skinny kick jean? Does it look like boot cut and flare styles will come back in style?
@american_eagle: The idea came from questioning what else would the ‘Skinny’ girl want 2 wear besides the current fit & what shoes could -HK #aedenim

From Dorothy on Facebook: How do you find the perfect jeans for your body type? #aedenim
@american_eagle: The best way to do it is come into our store. Take each fit of your size & try them on. In-store experience is vital. -HK #aedenim

@american_eagle: Denim on denim.. yay or nay? #aedenim
@elhowarth: Canadian tuxedo – nay #aedenim
@american_eagle: There’s a way to do denim on denim. The most modern way to do it is take a light washed Chambray shirt with a pure rinse indigo -HK #aedenim

U.S. Royalty is a Washington DC based band. Brothers John & Paul Thornley sing and play guitar respectively; Jacob Michael plays bass, and Luke Adams drums. Their EP “Midsommar” was released in August, 2009. “Mirrors,” their self-released album from 2011, was recorded after a year and a half of traveling. This travel vibe makes their album perfect for your summer road trip. Recently, they were on location in Nashville at an AE photo shoot, so we were able to shoot the following video of their Washington Irving inspired anthem, “Equestrian.”
