Finding Your Denim

Know the rise. High rise flatters most shapes and works with tucked-in tops. Mid rise is the versatile everyday choice.

Choose a leg shape for your shoes. Straight legs go with almost anything, wide legs balance a chunkier shoe, and slim legs suit boots.

Dark, even washes look smartest and are easiest to dress up. Lighter and faded washes feel more relaxed.

A little stretch adds comfort, while rigid cotton denim holds its shape and softens beautifully over time.

Wash jeans inside out, in cold water and only when needed, then line dry. The color and fit will last far longer.
