Mom, wide leg, barrel: women's jean cuts
The cut is chosen based on the body shape. The mom, like the Armedangels Mairaa, sits high on the waist, gives room at the hips, and narrows towards the ankle: it defines the waist and suits slim figures. The wide leg, like the Ichi Twiggy or the Armedangels Enijaa, falls straight and wide from the hip, visually elongating the leg when it brushes the ground. The barrel, like the Armedangels Baarly, rounds out at the knee before tapering: it's the most distinct cut, adding volume. Finally, the flare stays fitted until the knee then flares out, as seen with Le Temps des Cerises or It's Basic, and is worn long to elongate the silhouette.

Slim, straight or loose: men's jeans
For men, three main cuts dominate everyday use. The slim, like the Nudie Jeans Lean Dean, stays close to the body from thigh to ankle without being restrictive, provided you choose the right size at the waist. The straight cut, the most timeless, maintains the same width from knee to hem and suits almost all body types. The loose, like the Nudie Jeans Tuff Tony, offers room at the thighs and a wide bottom, for a more relaxed style. Before ordering, compare the stated waist and inseam measurements with those of a well-fitting pair of jeans, rather than relying on your usual size alone.
Raw denim and repairs: the Nudie Jeans philosophy
Nudie Jeans, founded in 2001 in Göteborg by Maria Erixon, has made raw denim its signature. Not washed after dyeing, this denim comes from the workshop stiff and a deep blue; it develops a patina according to the movements of the wearer, forming fades at the hips and creases behind the knees. The Swedish brand takes this logic further with its free repairs for their jeans in stores, to extend their life rather than replace them. To accompany the patina, one should wait several weeks before the first wash, then wash infrequently, inside out and in cold water. A raw denim should be chosen well-fitted, as the fabric slightly relaxes with wear.
Cargo, softshell, wide leg: non-denim trousers
Not all everyday bottoms are denim. The cargo pants Payper Worker Stretch, inspired by military and work gear, features multiple side pockets and uses stretch fabric that moves with squatting. The work Result softshell pants, a windproof and water-repellent stretchy fabric, protect against cold and drizzle on a construction site, in the garden, or on a winter walk. The Garcia Celia pants, in a wide leg and high waist cut, offer the fluid look of dress trousers without the stiffness of jeans. These trousers can be washed at low temperatures and dry quickly, an advantage for heavy use.
Frequently asked questions
How can I tell if a pair of jeans is made from organic cotton?
Jeans made from organic cotton typically have a label like GOTS or OCS on the tag or product sheet. Armedangels, a German brand founded in Cologne in 2007, has made this one of the foundations of its denim.
How can I prevent black jeans from fading?
Wash them inside out, in cold water, with a detergent for dark colours and avoid overloading the drum. Air-drying in the shade also helps limit the loss of colour over time.
What’s the difference between high waist and mid-rise jeans?
High waist jeans reach the level of the navel or just below, holding in the belly and elongating the leg. Mid-rise jeans stop a few centimetres lower, on the hips, for more comfort when sitting.
Can I shorten the length of jeans myself?
Yes, with a sewing machine equipped with a denim needle and thick thread, while keeping the original hem if possible. For raw jeans or flared cuts, a tailor guarantees a neater finish and discreet stitching.
What size of jeans should I take if I am between two sizes?
A stretch jean, which relaxes when worn, should be chosen in the smaller of the two sizes. A rigid cotton jean offers less tolerance at the waist: choose the size that fastens comfortably, knowing that it will soften slightly over time.
