The pursuit of an excellent pair of jeans is not without its challenges. Always demanding a good try-on session, it can be difficult to find a pair that delivers on comfort, style, affordability and fit. And the never-ending process is made all the more difficult with so many denim trends to choose from.
Whilst trending shapes such as puddle pants, and straight-leg jeans both have their merit, this season I’m picking up my search for the perfect pair of low-rise baggy jeans. If the ’00s resurgence hasn’t already reached you via kitten heels or ballet flats, then low-rise baggy jeans might be your bait. But, unlike the styles that dominated the early ’00s, 2024’s low-rise jeans come perfectly baggy and ultra-comfortable.
For a cool-silhouette that comes second-to-none, low-rise baggy jeans are the outfit elevating solution to your winter wear styling dilemmas. Whilst so many brands offer compelling iterations, I keep coming back to Arket‘s Cloud jeans. Frequently recommended within fashion-crowds, Arket’s low-rise jeans marry comfort with style and have worked their way up to the top of my wish list.
Available in eight different shades the baggy style offers an oversized fit, so consider sizing down once or twice for a neater finish. Coming in at £97, the cult jeans are a wardrobe investment that will continue to get better with age. Falling to hip height with a spacious feel and soft touch, the low-rise baggy jeans are a comfortable alternative to the tighter high-rise styles we’ve endured for season gone.
