Is the AG Sandra jean true to size?

AG denim generally runs true to size, but the low rise and slim leg mean shoppers between sizes often size up for comfort in the thigh. Check the waist measurement against a pair you already own.

How does the low rise fit compared with mid-rise jeans?

It sits below the natural waist, closer to the hip bone. That suits shorter torsos and tucked-in tops, but it can gap at the back when you sit if you are curvy.

How much stretch do these jeans have?

Very little. The fabric is mostly cotton with about 1% elastane, so it feels structured and holds its shape rather than stretching like a jegging.

What is the inseam and will it need hemming?

The listed length is a 31-inch inseam, which runs long on shorter wearers. Taller shoppers get a full-length straight leg; others should plan on hemming.

How should I wash and dry them?

Wash cold and tumble dry on low, as the care label specifies 30 degrees. High heat risks shrinking the cotton and fading the blue wash.

How does the Sandra compare with AG's skinny jeans?

The Sandra is slimmer through the hip but straighter from the knee down, so it looks more relaxed than a skinny. It also has less stretch than AG's super-stretch skinnies.
