Remember the Denim Strike from the late 60's or early 70's? Jeans were so cheap that the denim makers shut down for a while to drive the prices up. At least that's how I remember it, but the shelves and racks were indeed very bare of jeans for a while, and when they were available again the price had gone up signicantly.Those $10 jeans in the 80's were still fairly decent quality and yes there were designer stuff that was even higher, I never had any of them though. Today you can still get jeans in the $10 range - but they are nearly a wear once and toss type of thing, unless you don't do physical activity at all while wearing them.
