The skinny jean enjoyed an enduring reign. It’s not our place to battle reality here at Evergoods but we are glad that society has moved on. Wide leg jeans have claimed our wardrobes for several good reasons.
The reasons they have remained actually have nothing to do with trends staying power. Wide leg jeans are flattering, comfortable, and versatile beyond what you might expect. The main issue people encounter is proportion. Wide leg jeans that do not have the cut tailored to your shape will consume you.
When the cut is right though, it creates that effortlessly cool silhouette that makes you look like you knew what you were doing while everyone else is still searching. Rise is critical. So is length.
Jeans that hit right at your waist and either graze your floor or fall cleanly on your ankle will change your mornings. We promise. We have been picky about this round up because it can get noisy in this category. Every brand offers a wide leg jean these days meaning fit and quality can vary wildly.
We honed in on ones that work when you actually wear them on your body walking around all day. Taller bodies, shorter bodies, everywhere in between. We looked for pairs that cut in a stiff structured denim that keeps its shape all day.
We also looked for versions that move with you in softer denims that don't loose their shape. High waisted options that actually define your waist without digging into you when you sit down for lunch. These jeans do more than just look cool. The right pair can be worn with a fitted
tank top tucked in for the weekend or a blazer over the top on weekday mornings.
They’ll look just as great untucked with a white shirt when you want to look casual without looking sloppy. They're the jeans you reach for over more tight fitted pairs because they replace them rather than just adding to your closet. We have also spent extra time curating washes. A medium rinse will never pair with your wardrobe the same way a vintage fade will.
White wide leg jeans are talking about something entirely different yet again. We have treated each version as its own entity because both the occasion and your outfit change drastically based on what you reach for. Find your fit in this list and you'll wonder why you waited so long.
