What customers are saying:
Most customers are raving about the stylish, flattering look of these high-rise, wide-leg jeans with lovely design details like front pockets and unique sailor touches. They love how the classic denim drapes beautifully and can easily be dressed up or down for work or a night out. Several customers recommended sizing down since the jeans often run a bit large, and a few mentioned that the length can be extra long so pairing with heels or a quick hem adjustment might be worth considering. Overall, the jeans combine comfort, quality fabric, and a retro flair that has made them a versatile wardrobe favorite.

Super cute
August 15, 2025These are so comfortable and cute! I’m 5’9” and the length is just right. I wish they were a little more fitted in the thigh and butt but otherwise they fit well.

Flattering, Comfortable & Worth It
July 14, 2025These jeans check all the boxes. They're super flattering high rise, soft denim, and a wide-leg cut that makes my legs look longer. I wasn’t sure about the sailor style at first, but the front button detail is sleek and elevates the whole look. They’re polished enough to wear to work with heels but still easy to dress down with sneakers and a tee. I’m 5'6" and didn’t need to hem the regular length, but I could see taller friends loving the tall option too. I’d say go with your true size, but if you're in between, consider sizing down.

I’m torn about them
July 10, 2025The jeans are cute and stylish, and because I knew they were final sale I bought a larger size to make sure the fit across my stomach. They fit my stomach well, but they are so darn long . I’m going to have to get them altered. They were a final sale, and it’s a chance I took.

Great Jeans, Order 1 Size Down
July 10, 2025Excellent "sailor pants" but be advised they run large! I am 5'8" 185 lbs and usually between 12-13 jeans. The size 32 was a bit loose, and the denim stretches easily, so I am hoping they'll shrink in the wash. Very stylish though! Sort of fun 70s vibe

Best comfortable jeans
June 16, 2025I love these jeans! They are so comfortable and soft. i get a lot of ppl asking me where i bought them. I also have the dark rinse pair. I am 5' 7" and the lenght is good - I can wear with sneakers or wedge sandals. I can throw these on and look pulled together.
