Cuffed Jeans Are the Cool Denim Trend I Can't Stop Seeing—5 Pairs Worth Buying
There's been one denim trend on the rise lately that I can't stop thinking about—cuffed jeans. Technically, you can cuff any pair of jeans, but there are specific pairs that help achieve the look completely. (All cuffs are not created equal!) Cuffed jeans that are too soft might not hold, and with slimmer jeans, the fold will be too tight. Luckily for you, there's a variety of jeans to pick from that have the optimal cuff but can also be worn without thanks to the trend taking off. It's the best of both worlds.
If you already own a wide enough pair of jeans that folds perfectly, it's time to put this styling trick to use. If you don't yet, we've done the shopping for you. There's a lot to pick from, so I narrowed it down to the top five picks. That's not to say the rest are bad, but if you're looking for the best of the best, shop these pairs. Plus, I included other great options to fit your preferences if needed. Once you've gotten your hands on a pair, I've also collected outfit ideas for you to choose from. But first, keep scrolling to find your new favorite pair of jeans.
My Top Favorites
1. Citizens of Humanity Ayla Baggy Cuffed Jeans
If I had to pick a specific pair of jeans that was the leader of this trend, it would be Citizens of Humanity's Ayla Jeans. It's heavyweight denim, so it's a quality pair of jeans that will last for years. The waist isn't too high or low—it's just right. It can be worn cuffed or long, and with both options, the wide leg and baggy fit will add a relaxed touch to any outfit.
Customer Review: "I love the jeans! After a long debate, I finally decided to go ahead and buy them and they are WORTH IT. They're super high-quality jeans, however, I do recommend going down 1 full size."
Sizes: Available in 23 to 34
2. We the Free Palmer Cuffed Jeans
In case you didn't know, here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , we have always firmly believed that Free People's jeans are highly underrated. They're finally getting the attention they deserve, and along with the Barrel Jean, the Palmer is a worthy pick. They're meant to graze the floor when worn as is and hit the ankle when cuffed. Like other Free People jeans, this pair is offered in a variety of shades, from Eggshell to Savannah Khaki.
Customer Review: "I absolutely love these jeans and have bought them in two colors now! I'm usually a 30 in jeans and bought a 29. They fit so cute, and you can wear them cuffed or uncuffed. Both ways, they are flattering."
Sizes: Available in 24 to 33
3. Agolde Dame High-Rise Wide-Leg Jeans
I have yet to meet a pair of Agolde jeans that aren't backed with glowing reviews. The brand just knows how to make great denim. These jeans do run a tad long, so if you are on the shorter side, the cuff might have to be folded more than shown. Where the Citizens of Humanity jeans are wide leg, Agolde's have a straighter silhouette to them.
Customer Review: "I love everything about these jeans. I did size down as suggested. They have a button fly, not super high-waisted, but are very flattering with just enough waist definition. I'm 5'8", and I do need a bit of a heel with these. The cuff is not too wide to look clown-like, they are cool! I get tons of compliments."
Sizes: Available in 23 to 32
4. Abercrombie Fitch High Rise 90s Relaxed Jeans
It's tough to find jeans that are both affordable and size-inclusive, but Abercrombie has got you covered. The jeans offer the straight and long silhouette that has become synonymous with the '90s, hence the product name. There's also no shortage of washes to pick from, as Abercrombie offers 30 different ones with options that include raw hems, prints, and even embellishments. There's an option for everyone.
Customer Review: "Last year I wanted cuffed jeans from [J.Crew], but I couldn't bring myself to pay $200+ for that pair of jeans. So when I saw the Abercrombie cuffed jeans in a light wash, I couldn't resist. They are insanely comfortable and stylish. I've worn them multiple times, and the cuff doesn't get messed up in the wash. It remains pretty straight, which makes them super easy to throw on—no fuss. My only complaint is that they bag out more than some of my other Abercrombie jeans, so consider sizing down if you're in between sizes like me."
Sizes: Available in 23 to 37 and in Short, Regular, and Long lengths
5. Zara High Waist Cuffed Straight Cut Jeans
If an affordable, reliable, and no-fuss pair of jeans is what you're shopping for, look no further than Zara. These jeans are chic, and since they're made from 100% cotton, they'll be comfortable too. The medium wash with slight distressing adds to their allure, making them comparable to the higher-end jeans featured here.
Sizes: Available in 0 to 12
