About the American Eagle AE Original Straight Jean

The AE Original Straight is American Eagle's core straight-leg jean, cut with a mid rise and a leg that stays straight from thigh to hem. It comes in a wide range of washes and stretch levels, from rigid denim to comfort stretch, so shoppers can pick how much give they want. Owners rate it highly for everyday fit and hold-up over time, and it undercuts most premium straight-leg jeans on features while matching them on fabric variety. It suits people who want a clean, classic straight leg without a slim taper.

    Questions and answers

    How does the Original Straight fit compared with AE's Slim Straight?
    The Original Straight has more room through the thigh and knee and no taper below the knee. The Slim Straight narrows toward the ankle and sits closer to the leg.
    Is the denim stretchy?
    It depends on the wash. Some pairs are rigid 100% cotton denim, while others use comfort stretch with a small amount of elastane. Check the fabric content on the specific wash.
    Does it run true to size?
    Most owners say yes and order their usual waist size. If you are between sizes or prefer a looser seat, size up.
    What rise is it?
    It is a mid rise that sits at or just below the natural waist, not a low rise.
    Will the rigid version soften over time?
    Yes. Rigid denim breaks in with wear and washing, softening at the hips and knees after a few weeks.
    What lengths are available?
    It comes in several inseams, but availability varies by wash. Short and long lengths are not offered in every color.
