One of the biggest trends this fall are relaxed jeans. The laid-back denim style is reminiscent of the ‘90s and early 00s and embodies the skater lifestyle. A signature pair of relaxed jeans gently fits the hips and flows straight down with denim that’s slightly slimmer than a wide leg. Yet, they’re barely wider than a straight leg. Plus, there are versions that you can wear with friends as well as styles that can pass a casual Friday at the office test.
Good American
Good American’s Good ’90s Relaxed Jeans elevate the trending look. These distressed jeans feature a contrasting denim triangular panel on the outer legs. And, there are booty-flattering seams just above the back pockets.

You can shop sizes 00 to 24 in this multi-indigo color.
GAP
GAP’s High Rise Organic Cotton 90s Loose Jeans boast a vintage rinse shade of denim that can be worn year-round. These relaxed jeans look like they’ve walked right off of the runway with a relaxed feel that flows from the hip and barely touches the body, down to the ankle.
