I have my jeans made from Japanese denim at a local tailor in Berlin. The guy is a master, the seams and linings are perfect and last forever.
The oldest pair he made for me is from 2014. It looks like new still.
I pay between 80–150€ per pair depending on fabric price and gimmicks I ask for (e.g. pockets under the waist belt, extra coin pockets, etc.).
One thing I always do is have him add a hem from some high endurance material (>50k Martindale or the like) at the inseam.
This is where most jeans come apart and start looking like they shouldn't be worn anymore as this is the area that rubs against the shoes or ground and gets exposed to the elements most.
