Properly straight legged jeans

Where can I get some? Most I see are “slim straight” or look tapered like mom jeans or are wide legged. I’d like mid rise rather than high as well.

I have some wide legged Baukjen jeans (Lou) that are nice and look almost straight on but I would like a truly straight pair and the Baukjen ones I have are high rise.

I have a couple of pairs from True Religion. Straight, not tapered, and low to mid rise.

Levi's 501s - regular ones, not any 'special editions'

Thank you, I’ll look at these. I was looking at 501s today thinking they’d do the job but even they looked a bit “mom” in shape.

I got these on sale at Reformation recently and would recommend. Hopefully, it will come back in stock.

Yes, they're quite high waisted too.

I wanted a pair of non high waisted dark work trousers and couldn't find a single pair trawling up and down the length of Oxford Street last week. In the end, Boden has come up trumps and I haven't ordered from them in years.

You can buy vintage 501s and they are truly straight (and better than the new ones I got). There was a whole thread on here a couple of years ago explaining how to order for waist as the old ones were shrink to fit. I’ll see if I can find it if you are interested.

That’s right - the bath ad!
