The flare jeans for a Friday evening with your good heels

Some days the wardrobe rail has one hanger you keep reaching for, and flare jeans can be that hanger. These are a high rise, wide leg cut in stretch denim with fading and whiskering, and the listing styles them with a sweater, a bag and heels.

The fabric is 73% cotton, 14% rayon, 11% polyester and 2% spandex. Cotton makes up most of the blend, so this is still a denim built mainly from a natural fiber. The 2% spandex is the part that accounts for the stretch the listing mentions, and the rayon and polyester fill out the rest of the mix. The listing does not state the weight of the denim, so how heavy or light it feels is not something the spec can tell you.

The cut is high rise and wide leg, with a flare or bell bottom shape in the title. Fading, whiskering and a distressed finish are part of the fabrication, which gives the denim a worn in look from the start. Whether that look suits you is a matter of taste, not measurement. Closure is a front fly zipper with a button, and there are the classic five pockets, so the layout is the familiar one.

Care is machine wash, and the listing gives no water temperature or drying advice. It also does not state the inseam, the rise in inches, the leg opening or a size chart, so check the full page before ordering if length matters with your heels. The jeans are listed as imported, with no country named.
