It's a common misconception that men have an easy time finding a pair of jeans. Like women, men have different body shapes. What looks fabulous on one man may look utterly geeky on another. Although shopping for men's jeans sounds like a daunting task, it's possible to do so without leaving your bachelor pad.

According to About.com, the three types of body shapes men have are ectomorph, endomorph, and mesomorph. Ecotomorphs are tall, slim, and thin. Endomorphs are round, with a generous waist size. Mesomorphs have a muscular, athletic build.

Ectomorphs should wear jeans that show off their slim features. Wearing jeans that are too bulky make a man look like he's swimming in his clothing and that's not cool. Classic ectomorphs find comfort in Levi's 511 Skinny Fit jeans. At $54, they are a steal. Since they come in a variety of colors, it's a good idea to purchase several colors. Light denim looks great for a casual look, where dark washes are an excellent "night on the town" look. For men who like a hipper, more urban look, 7 For All Mankind Slimmy in San Clemente 2 makes for a great pair of jeans.

Endomorphs shouldn't wear the skinny jeans sported by ectomorphs. Instead, they should wear a jean with a more relaxed waist and a leg that balances out their fuller figure. Taper leg jeans tend to make a thick waist look even thicker, so choose boot cut jeans over taper leg jeans for a more balanced look. Joe's Jeans Classic 32" in Blake is a comfortable option for many men. Featuring a hint of stretch denim and a relaxed look, these jeans should balance out a pudgy tummy quite nicely.

Mesomorphs can find comfort in any number of styles. Skinny jeans may not fit quite right on a muscular figure, although many other styles will work very well. 7 For All Mankind boot cut jeans should be a staple in a mesomorph's wardrobe. Rock & Republic Floyd in Collaboration is also a wonderful pair of jeans for an athletic man.

Suffice it to say, not all jeans are created equal. There are denim jeans, and there are the luxury denim jeans made from premiere denim. What generally separates the two is that little something extra that creates the comfort needed in a pair of well fitting jeans. Usually that extra element for the perfect fit is just the right amount of spandex or elastane combined with luxury denim designed to provide the perfect fit while still being comfortable.

High-end jeans are considered luxury jeans, and usually it is the quality of denim that puts them in this class. There are a wide variety of luxury jean brands to select from, including brands such as 7 for All Mankind, James Jeans, Rock and Republic, Paper Denim & Cloth and others.

7 for All Mankind is one of the popular brands of jeans offering a wide variety of cuts, lengths and styles from which to select. One of the most popular styles is the Edie which is the skinny leg jean available in New York Dark or Mercer (black). Features include five pockets, stitch details on the back pockets, a very skinny cut, distressed details and a fabric combination of 2% elastane and 98% cotton.

James Jeans are quite popular with the Hollywood set. The unique luxury jeans offer a variety of styles, rises and cuts in their collection. One of the most popular styles is the James Jeans 5-pocket slim legs jean with embroidered back pockets. Made from 2% Lycra and 98% cotton, these jeans provide a great fit and are definitely comfortable. The retail price for the 5-pocket style is $143.

Rock and Republic is probably one of the most expensive among luxury jeans. A great example of their popular styles includes the Rock and Republic Jaguar. Made with a boot cut and low rise, features include five pockets, belt loops, the signature embroidered back pockets and material made from a combination of 30% polyester and 70% cotton. The Rock and Republic Jaguar jeans retail for $350. Luxury jeans or not, finding a good, well fitting, comfortable jean is a fashion plus.
