Where to buy the jeans you’ll live in all year long.

There is something incredibly easy-going and comfortable about a good pair of vintage jeans. Faded blue in color, with a high cut waist, straight leg pant and just the right balance of stretch and stiffness have become the wardrobe staple everywhere. Mom jeans, dad jeans and rib cut high-waist styles have become the standard in denim thanks to their versatility and flattering fit. But when it comes to finding a true vintage pair that fits perfectly, the task usually proves to be laborious and difficult but is well worth the work for countless outfits and days of wear. While you could spend hours scouring thrift shops and online boutiques for your vintage score there is another way to get the coveted look. Many retailers and brands offer vintage styles in varying cuts and colors. Though not truly vintage these jeans are still a lot to shout, jump up and down and broadcast about Here are some our favorite styles and how to wear them with style, grace and Instagram Stan appeal.

Levis

Truly an originator, Levi’s have created various new styles that have the magic of vintage 501’s embedded within them. Their “wedgie jean” and “ribcage jean” created an almost instant cult following prior to release, and have continued to hold hearts since. These classic styles go well with equally classic cut tee shirts, crisp button up shirts or silky camisoles.

& Other Stories

& Other Stories has a vintage feel and aesthetic and the same goes for their jeans. The brand offers vintage looking styles in muted pastel colors and light washes. As a result, these jeans show a softer side of denim while still having that flattering vintage fit.

Everlane

For a truly classic style look to Everlane’s straight cut jeans which now come in 4 styles, the super straight, cheeky straight and 90’s cheeky straight. All made from premium Japanese denim, these styles have a toned down and more classic look to them, and are known for serious comfort. A comfy sweatshirt or paired down tee-shirt with simple sneakers make good matches for this style.
