I'm going to be unpopular and say that elastic definitely has a place in denim. It makes it more comfortable and reduces crouch blow outs.
But then I'm not into the fetish and my jeans don't look like this.
As an aside, I've got a pair of kevlar "skateboard" levis that I bought for the express purpose of playing with my kids on a whim in tkmax. They are full of all sorts of man made fibres (including 2% elastane) and are absolutely fucking ace. Asides from the hotter months I've worn them almost constantly and 2yrs on the crotch is still in tact, as are the knees. I need to find another pair for when these go.
