My Crystal Ball Says These New J.Crew Jeans Have "Sold Out" in Their Future
If I knew what was good for me and my wallet, I'd spend more time reading books or—I don't know—knitting instead of scrolling on Instagram. With a job like mine, though, knowing what's new on fashion's unofficial favorite app is kind of important. At least, that's how I justify my shocking amount of screen time. My scrolling habits can't be so bad. After all, without them, I would have never stumbled upon Olympia Gayot's post about the brand's latest denim drop. Missing that just isn't an option.
"New year new jeans," Gayot, J.Crew's head of women's design, captioned the post, which features eight photos of J.Crew's first denim release of 2024. In a majority of the photos, the designer is wearing one specific pair of jeans that I'm predicting will break the internet and sell out, which is why I'm glad I saw the post so early. The style, called the Side-Tab Trousers, is from J.Crew's premium Point Sur denim line and features silver side tabs that allow you to resize the trouser-like jeans to fit either low or high on your waist. "I love the Point Sur Side-Tab Trouser," Gayot tells me. "It is constructed with premium made-in-the-U.S. rigid denim and workwear-style tabs that you can adjust so the jeans hit exactly where you want them."

In general, Gayot says that this season's denim collection was designed with J.Crew's heritage denim in mind. "We took an extra-close look at the fit, the details, and the wash in the styles to get each pair just right," she says. "There is a great wide assortment from low-rise to high, super wide to more slim, and everything in between." Check out the Side-Tab Trousers and more new denim from J.Crew below. If you're smart, you'll buy your favorite pair fast. I get the feeling this specific collection won't last long.
