It’s an all-too-common occurrence: You see a girl with great jeans, you muster up the courage to ask where she got them, and somehow the answer always seems to be, “Oh, thanks—they’re actually vintage!” Cue a sigh of disappointment. While those genuine gems are hard to come by, the perfect pair of vintage-inspired jeans are actually well within reach; you just need to know where to find them. Keep reading to see our short list of brands making the vintage-inspired denim we’re in love with these days.
What It Is
The difference between vintage jeans and their vintage-inspired counterparts? You get the same great styles and throwback silhouettes, but with the added benefit of everything denim makers have figured out over the recent decades. (Trust us, they’ve come a long way.)
Why We Need to Have It
Because if you’re anything like us, once you discover super-flattering, ultra-comfortable high-waisted jeans (thanks to modern perks like LYCRA® dualFX® technology), you’ll never look back.
Where to Get It
You could go to a vintage store and spend hours looking for a pair you may or may not find, or you can shop vintage-inspired pieces with LYCRA® dualFX® technology from Mother, Citizens of Humanity, and Frame here.
