Sorry, Skinny Jeans—This Denim Trend Is Going to Be Huge

Before we dive in, let’s just remember that in reality, skinny jeans could basically be considered a classic at this point. Sure, people may have varying views on the cut, but they’re more or less timeless. That said, a style on the other end of the denim spectrum continues to increase in popularity—and definitely will thrive come spring. Yep, we’re talking about those loose, straight-leg jeans. More specifically, the silhouettes that are especially relaxed.

Well today, we thought we’d dive in a bit deeper with some visual inspiration on how fashion people are wearing loose-fitting jeans because it's continuing well into 2022, we think. With that in mind, keep scrolling for a range of outfit ideas featuring this top-notch denim silhouette in varying cuts.
