Recommendations for jeans that don’t sag after a couple of hours wear

[Littlemiss74]

I desperately need some new jeans. Always worn skinnies so would like some more of those but also like the look of something a bit looser for spring ie boyfriend to wear with trainers.

I hate it when jeans fit nicely when you put them on but after a couple of hours seem to have grown a size and become saggy and loose.

Can anyone recommend some jeans please that definitely keep their shape? What’s the best material mix to look for for this? Thanks

You may be buying the wrong size. Jeans should be very tight when you first out them on. Then they loosen up.

Also, I mean this gently, but are you paying enough for good quality jeans? Cheap jeans never hold their shape.

Cotton denim. They need to be tight when you put them on.

If there is lycra/elastane content they are likely to loosen during the day.

You need a belt.

@Avarua the best jeans I’ve ever had were from Mint Velvet a few years ago, i think they were called Darby style. Loved them but when I went to buy more they had discontinued that style, typical! They weren’t 100% cotton, only about 70% I think but they held their shape and were very comfortable. They were about £70 so I don’t mind paying that sort of price again so long as they don’t sag and lose their shape at all.

I found the per una ones good and fat face not my go to brands,and levi's are good if you get ones with proper pockets not half-size pockets

I've only ever had one non-saggy pair of jeans from uniqlo and that was about 20 years ago- they were 100% cotton

I find I need a belt to avoid the slipping over the hips

This thread might inspire you @Littlemiss74

Paige verdugo hold shape really well.

Spend a good chunk on a pair of decent Levi's and they'll last you decades!
I have 508s that I've had for over 20 years with no shape change.
Not sure they still do 508s that said.

My 501s didn't change shape but I did.

Another shout for Levi’s here. I like 501s, and also the “high loose taper” style.

I love my boyfriend jeans from g-star raw. Planning on heading to the Levi’s store when I’m next in town so good to hear that they are still a good fit.
