I have to stop buying "long" jeans... I'm just too short for them. Anyway, maybe you could benefit from my poor judgement! These jeans are in great shape! They have some intentional distressing that I have included pictures of. TBH, I'm not sure if the wear on the hem is intentional or from being worn. Like I said these are way too long for me so I didn't actually wear them out into the world but I'm not positive about the previous owner. Now, an important piece of information for my fellow thick thigh cuties: the inner thigh fabric is SOLID. If you are like me you know what it's like to buy used to denim and have the inner thigh split after a couple of wears. These should be good to go in that regard. I included pictures of all of the things I look for as a Lucky Brand jeans collector but if there's anything that I missed or just other information you want, feel free to ask.
