I Think These Are the Best Black Jeans, and They're Also Top-Rated by Customers

I wear black jeans regularly. While I'm also favoring light-blue jeans these days, I routinely turn to black denim because I think it can bring a chic and polished feel. Fun fact: My go-to silhouettes are from Levi's and Mott Bow. But there are also a plethora of other A+ silhouettes out there. And yes, I decided to take the next few moments to share some of the said picks with you. I scrolled through a range of go-to sites from Nordstrom to Shopbop to find the black jeans I think are great from a style perspective but that are also top-rated by customers. The jeans in question all have over four stars and above. If you're looking to add a fresh pair of black jeans into your rotation, keep scrolling to check out the best picks, broken down by style. You'll also find an actual customer testimonial for each.
Straight-Leg Jeans
Editor Highlight: Agolde's Riley jeans have been a staple among our editors for years, and it's not hard to see why: Everything about these jeans is perfect, from the cut and construction to the perfectly all-black wash.
Reviewer Highlight: "Love these jeans." — Shopbop Customer
Editor Highlight: This ultra-dark pair is perfect for someone who wants dressier jeans they can wear to work or for more formal occasions.
Reviewer Highlight: "Put these on and was amazed. They are literally a flawless fit and have the perfect stretch. So comfortable!!!" —Nordstrom Customer
Editor Highlight: This cropped Mother denim pair is perfect for wearing with ankle boots in the fall.
Reviewer Highlight: "The perfect black jeans! I was looking for a high waist pair that’s stretchy, straight, and long enough (I’m 5”10), and these are the perfect fit." —Revolve Customer
Editor Highlight: Frame makes some of the best jeans on the market, and it's safe to say these jeans are some of the best out there, with tons claiming they're the only pair they'll wear.
Reviewer Highlight: "I ordered these as comfy weekend jeans, and they did not disappoint. They did run a little larger than my Frame Le High Skinny Jeans, but they are extremely comfortable and a huge step up from leggings." — Shopbop Customer
Editor Highlight: Universal Standard's incredibly size-inclusive jeans include this everyday black wash I simply can't stop thinking about.
Reviewer Highlight: "I'm a wide-waisted narrow-hipped girlie, and these are the jeans of my dreams. I love the unfinished hem (that was a surprise) and the just wide enough leg. I’m 5’6”, and the length is just right for chunky loafers or a low heeled boot." — Universal Standard Customer
Editor Highlight: If you're looking for the best black straight jeans with an elevated fit, look no further.
Reviewer Highlight: "An incredible fabric and perfect fit. [These are] fantastic jeans. I would buy [them] in every color they made." — Customer Review
Skinny Jeans
Editor Highlight: For under $100, these can't-miss fan-favorite jeans are such a steal.
Reviewer Highlight: "These jeans are a real black color and made of a nice lighter-weight fabric with some stretch. I like that they also have a length size, so I could order a shorter length. They fit really well, not just in the length, but also there’s enough room to breathe." — Nordstrom Customer
Editor Highlight: Okay, L'Agence. I see you.
Reviewer Highlight: "Obsessed with these. So much so that I not only bought in other washes but got a second pair in the black! I wear them SO much that I couldn’t take the risk of them being discontinued and not getting another pair. At this price point, that speaks volumes." — Revolve Customer
Editor Highlight: Everlane's jeans are such classics.
Reviewer Highlight: "These jeans are really comfortable; I wear them multiple times a week for work, and they always look great. I’ve washed them a couple of times (hang dry), and the color is still super black. I’m so glad I bought these!" —Everlane Customer
Flared Jeans
Editor Highlight: This slightly washed stone pair is my ideal shade of black jeans.
Reviewer Highlight: "Been looking for high-waisted flare black jeans forever. I am 5'10", and the inseam was long enough for me to wear 3" heels. Love these. Soft and soft waistband too." — Customer Review
