It depends on one’s preferences for comfort and fit, but an ideal closet of jeans should encompass a range of stretch options. Jeans with little or no stretch are great for the classic look when worn tight and high on the waist, or in a slouchy boyfriend fit. Jeans with high elasticity and innovative stretch properties that lift, hold and keep their shape all day are as comfortable as they are flattering.
Shopping for jeans is something that it’s easy to have a love-hate relationship with. The prospect of finding a perfect new pair of jeans is exciting, but when faced with so many options of so many different styles, washes, and brands to choose from, overwhelming doesn’t begin to describe the shopping experience. And not to add yet another thing to that list, but there’s something else that we think is the #1 thing to consider when shopping for jeans: types of denim.
The comfort, fit, and look of a pair of jeans has so much to do with the fabric that they’re made of (i.e. 100% cotton, stretch, raw denim, etc.) You may already have a favorite without even knowing. because this is such an important factor in your denim shopping.
Fit and fabric go hand in hand when creating an amazing pair of jeans. For example, denim with mid to high elasticity molds to the body while lifting and holding, making skinny jeans crazy flattering for people of all shapes and sizes. For example Hyperstretch denim, a fabric with innovative stretch fibers that sculpt your body yet feel like your most comfortable leggings without bagging out. Moreso, iconic denim fits provide the best fit because the fabric has more structure, giving curves and extra boost.
