Jeans that don't bag and sag!

doglover90 · 29/04/2023 13:21

I'm looking for a pair of high quality straight leg or slim jeans that don't go baggy at the knees. My current M&S pair is awful - the knees are really crumpled. I'm thinking of investing in Levi's (like the pair below) but I don't know how the knees hold up!

Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm looking for a pair that has specific waist and inseam length options, rather than just 8/10/12 etc sizing.

I have just gone back to wearing Levi's for exactly this reason. I find the fit I like hard to find so have been buying my Levi's on Vinted.

Yes I've bought a couple of pairs of Levis too Very good condition and very cheap
Once you know your size and style it's easy
I always message seller if the labels aren't clear too

I look for 100% cotton or rigid Jean's. Everlane, Weekday Arket or Levi will all do versions of that and are all really good quality

I love levi high loose tapers.

Another Levi’s fan here. I am really loving the 90s 501s at the moment, but also like the mom jeans and per pp the high loose tapers,

I also buy vintage Levi's, the 100% cotton ones. My favourite style is a straight leg, mid to high waist cut called 411 (not terribly easy to find but I now have a couple of pairs) they are much less trendy than 501s so are cheaper

Echoing Levi's 100% but you need to find one that suits your body shape and sizing varies depending on the composition. If you have a store near you (or department store that carries them), would recommend going in to try different fits. If not, the website offers free returns and often has sales. TK Maxx is carrying a few styles but mainly skinnys I think.
