I Only Wear Straight-Leg Jeans—These Are the 5 Brands I Trust
I've shared before that I'm a picky denim shopper. Hey, what can I say? I just know what I like in my jean selection, and I tend to stick with it. If you looked at my denim stack right now, you'd see one common theme: All my pairs have a straight-leg fit.
I love good straight-leg jeans because they're stylistically universal. Dress them up; dress them down; wear them with a T-shirt or your favorite going-out top. The outfit ideas are endless. Plus, they go with pretty much all of the shoe styles I care about, from ankle boots to heels to sneakers. So luckily for me, the rest of the fashion world has been favoring straight-fit denim over super-snug styles. (Though, I have a feeling classic skinny jeans will never really go away.) Therefore, the internet and my favorite denim brands are filled with some truly amazing straight-leg-jean options, from tailored to roomier fits, in every wash.
Speaking of my favorite brands, below, I'm sharing the six best straight-leg-jean brands that have perfected the art of this classic style. Ahead, see which ones I trust, how I'm wearing my favorite fits, and shop each pair.
All my fellow Who What Wear editors are obsessed with Agolde's famed Pinch Waist jeans for their high rise, so I had to test them out for myself. I loved the tailored fit, and even though I wore them here with a tee and ankle boots, they're exactly the kind of denim that can easily be dressed up with heels and a nice top.Nineties vibes are strong with this aptly named pair. They fit a tad looser and lower on the hips than the above pair, giving them a cool lived-in feel. Not only do these ribcage-grazing jeans feel amazing, but they have a sculpting effect that makes them look great, too. Plus, the button fly gives them a vintage-inspired appeal. I'm wearing the ankle-length here, but I want to try the full-length version next since long-hemmed jeans are trending right now.Fact: Black jeans are a staple for fall and winter, and this pair from J Brand checks so many boxes. I love the straight-leg, high-rise fit, and the hem falls perfectly over ankle boots, as exhibited above.With a slimmer fit throughout the leg, this pair from Reformation is more akin to skinny jeans. It has an ultra-high rise, so if you like to tuck your tops in, this pair will speak to you.What I immediately liked about this pair was how light it felt on. After testing out a lot of the rigid denim featured above, this lightweight fabric felt like a breath of fresh air. As far as the fit goes, it nails that fine line of being relaxed without looking sloppy.For insanely comfy stretch jeans, these sure do look a lot like thicker, rigid denim, which is not something I can say of other stretchy jeans I've tried. (They might have even converted me into a stretch denim–wearing person—only time will tell.) As for the fit, I liked the longer hem, which laid nicely over a pair of heeled boots. Longer jeans are eclipsing cropped pairs right now, so that element made them feel quite on trend.I'm way into the dark-indigo wash on these.Meet the latest denim brand on my radar. It's churning out some major hits right now.Your hunt for the perfect vintage-inspired pair ends here.Celebs adore Khaite's minimalistic denim, so I'm curious to try it out now, too.Nothing beats Topshop's denim selection in terms of being on trend and affordable.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
