Frequently asked questions
What is the most versatile jean fit?
A slim or straight fit is the most versatile. A slim fit follows the leg for a neat modern shape without being tight, while a straight fit gives a timeless, even line that suits almost any build. Both work with trainers, boots and smart-casual outfits, so they are the safest single choice.
What is the difference between slim and tapered jeans?
A slim fit is cut close all the way down for a consistently narrow line. A tapered fit leaves more room through the seat and thigh and only narrows below the knee, so it suits athletic builds and fuller thighs while still finishing neat at the ankle.
Which jeans suit bigger thighs?
Tapered or straight jeans suit bigger thighs best because they leave room through the seat and thigh before narrowing or running straight to the hem. Look for a fit with some stretch for extra comfort, and avoid skinny cuts that grip and pull across the leg.
