Wide leg jeans for a day when you want room to move

Check price on Amazon Opens Amazon.com · affiliate link

These wide leg jeans sit high on the waist and are cut from a stretch denim blend of cotton, polyester and a touch of spandex. The listing describes five traditional pockets with a distressed edge finish and a vintage wash, plus a zip fly, button closure and belt loops.

The fabric mix is 50 percent cotton, 49 percent polyester and 1 percent spandex, which the listing describes as soft, breathable and stretchy. That small amount of spandex is what gives a rigid feeling denim some give, useful for a baggy cut that still needs to move with you through a full day.

The leg is described as wide and straight rather than slim, with a loose fit meant to work across different leg shapes and heights. The listing notes it is worth checking the size chart for inseam length before ordering, since a wide leg style depends more on length than a fitted pant does. The high waist sits above the hip, and the listing frames this as offering more coverage than a low rise style, with the fit smoothing the line at the belly and waist.

Styling wise, the pockets carry a distressed edge and vintage wash look, so there is some built in texture and fading rather than a flat, uniform denim surface. The listing suggests pairing them with colorful tops, and lists settings from casual daily wear to school, work, travel and lounging. Care is machine wash, and the listing recommends cold water to help the jeans hold their shape over time. The item is imported.
