Dark indigo jeans

21 replies

Can any of you lovely MNers help me find what seems to be the holy grail of jeans!

I want some very dark blue/indigo jeans. NOT skinnies. Either a straight or slim fit or a slight kick flare.

I am short ish (5'3") and want them a slightly cropped length so I can wear with boots.

Seems impossible to find!

Any ideas please?

This sort of shape but much darker blue is what I'm looking for.

Have a look at Ruth Langsford jeans on qvc I have some and they are the perfect width and come in different lengths, I quite like mine turned up.

Levis? The website is easy to navigate and has lots of different lengths.

Thank you, I did look at Levi's, these are a possibility -

M and S

Jigsaw?

I' re-discovered' Next jeans recently. They do dark/indigo jeans in a nice slim fit, and also bootcuts. They do a sort of 'fit and flare' too but not sure if these come in dark/indigo. I'm same height as you and Next petites seem to be about the best fit for me.

Community clothing do these too.

bendmeoverbackwards · 15/10/2020 20:23

Thank you all, will check out all of these.

M&S Sophia might be suitable. Low on stock at the mo, I do hope they are not phasing them out.

Dark dark blue jeans are not particularly fashionable at the moment so that's why you are struggling to find them. It's a pain when something you love just disappears from the stores.

bendmeoverbackwards · 15/10/2020 21:20

I didn’t know that @damnthatanxiety I think they’re much smarter than lighter washes.

I've received bought a nice pair of Dark
Jeans from next Decent Quality for £25
I usually wear Top shop Jamie but they're always sold out in my Petite length

I'm 5'1" and I get the Levi 724s in a length 28 - they might be ideal as a slight crop for you. They are straight with a high waist and they do a lovely dark denim. Just discovered them last year and they are so comfortable - so nice not to be restricted by the skinny jeans.

bendmeoverbackwards · 19/10/2020 21:05

Great suggestions thank you all.

Had no luck with M&S or Jigsaw - both going back.

Looked at Next but not quite right.

@albird the Levi’s look very promising! Have ordered. They didn’t have my usual waist size 30 in the 28” leg so ordered a 29, hope they fit!

Dark normal denim or blue/black?

bendmeoverbackwards · 19/10/2020 22:05

Either @NotMeNoNo

I've got the M&S style called Sienna in blue/black. Short length comes up a bit cropped on me, same height. Although looking at your picture I think they might be still too slim.

John Lewis have got some NYDJ ones here or Joules ones here.

Massimo Dutti?
