What reviewers say

Questions and answers

How does the regular fit compare with slim or relaxed fits?

It sits between the two: roomier than slim through the thigh and seat, but with a straighter, less baggy leg than relaxed styles. It suits men who find slim jeans restrictive.

Do these jeans have stretch?

Yes, the cotton is blended with a small amount of spandex, so they give slightly at the waist and knees. Expect a broken-in feel rather than rigid raw denim.

Will the dark washes bleed?

Dark indigo and black washes can transfer dye onto light upholstery or underwear at first. Wash them separately in cold water before the first wear.

How should I wash them to keep the fit and color?

Turn them inside out, wash cold, and line dry or tumble low. High heat is what shrinks the cotton and speeds up fading.

Are they good for work or just casual wear?

They work for both. The clean straight leg passes in casual offices and pairs with boots or sneakers, though they are not a heavy-duty work jean.

Do they run true to size?

Most buyers take their usual waist size, but check reviews for the specific wash, since sizing has been reported to vary between colors.
