This Runway-Approved Denim Trend Is Replacing Baggy Jeans

If baggy jeans are your ride-or-die, this might not be the list for you, but if you prefer to keep it straight (literally) with jeans that don't cling, welcome to my little corner of denim heaven. Now, don't get me wrong—there's nothing wrong with loving your skinny, flared, or even cropped styles. Fashion is personal, after all. Today, however, I'm here for the straight-leg fans.
We cover how to style jeans and which styles are trending pretty often around here, but it's been a minute since we've done a straightforward (pun intended) roundup of the best straight-leg jeans out there right now. Ahead, I'm sharing my personal favorites: distressed, black, and classic '90s styles, all in that effortless straight-leg fit. If your denim drawer could use a refresh, this list should be a solid go-to.
Styling Tip: For an effortlessly polished look, drape a cozy scarf over your shoulders to soften a structured blazer. Pairing it with straight-leg jeans and neutral boots strikes the perfect balance between casual and refined—ideal for those crisp fall days.
Styling Tip: When you're tired of blue jeans, stick to neutral tones and classic pieces that scream "effortless." Adding a sporty element, like a Yankees cap, keeps it casual while still looking put-together. This look is perfect for a quick city getaway.
Styling Tip: When in doubt, a black leather jacket over dark-wash jeans is the ultimate no-fuss combo for a sleek, pulled-together look. Add a subtle belt and classic bag to elevate the basics and keep it feeling chic.
