Yes, they sit below the natural waistline so they are low rise.

dudsville · 08/04/2022 22:44

I can see why you're asking! If they are then they're a dropped crotch version which COS do a lot of in other fabrics.

catelina · 08/04/2022 22:47

Any trousers will be low rise if they don't fit and slide down your hips. Those are horrid.

thesnaleandthewhail · 08/04/2022 22:50

They're grim aren't they, they just don't seem to fit. It's not what I'd consider low rise no. If they're just basically too big and look like they need hoiking up that's not really low rise. For me low rise is a short gap between the crotch and the button

Zazdar · 08/04/2022 22:55

These are ultra high rise jeans.

Spot the difference.

IDidntKnowItWasAParty · 08/04/2022 22:58

Definitely not low-rise! Those are probably the most hideous jeans I've ever seen 😂

Sofasogood1 · 08/04/2022 23:01

Are they men's jeans?

Zazdar · 08/04/2022 23:03

Are they men's jeans?

I must admit I thought it was the men’s section at first.

DeadSouth · 08/04/2022 23:09

These are the ugliest jeans I’ve seen

BewareTheBeardedDragon · 08/04/2022 23:12

They're hideous and the styling is godawful. Those shoes Envy

I completely agree. They look dreadful

StarlightLady · 09/04/2022 07:30

I would say low crotch as opposed to low rise!

gunnersgold · 09/04/2022 07:53

No ! They look mid rise at most . Low is nearer the hips!

EllaPaella · 09/04/2022 08:00

They don't look low rise to me. Low rise is what we used to wear in the 90's and finished on or even below the hip bone.
I would say the Cos jeans are Mid rise to high rise.

VerityPJohnson · 09/04/2022 09:26

They are indeed hideous jeans.

So this is what I think are actually low rise jeans

Even jeans labelled mid rise often seem quite high rise these days.

What would be useful is the rise measurement but God forbid we get anything bar the bare essentials in online product descriptions.

Her in the OP looks like she's borrowed her Dad's Smart Price Asda Jeans.

Ozanj · 09/04/2022 09:31

Yes. I used to have jeans just like those in the 90s. They look better if you have curves.

Greatoutdoors · 09/04/2022 09:33

Well they are not the low rise I remember from the 00s, which required bikini waxing to wear with dignity…

balalake · 09/04/2022 09:37

I agree with you that they are hideous. Also that proper information should be provided.

Blimey, they've got a touch of the Charlie Chaplins about them haven't they?

Svara · 09/04/2022 17:26

I'd say mid rise. Low rise in my teens showed your hip bones.

Mamette · 09/04/2022 17:26

Not low rise. The rise looks quite long actually.

Low-slung maybe.
