How are jeans supposed to fit?

[Shyyhs]

I've been told before that a key to all this is to have a nice expensive pair of jeans that "fit". I'm just confused on the fit part. What is the proper fit?

Whats your body type?

 

[PRMoon]

Fit depends on your style. I wear jeans differently depending on shirt shoes and situation.

im no fashion guru but i think jeans should fit you where they accentuate ur body curves i.e. ur butt. If jeans u wear are too saggy and u cant see ur butt then thats a problem. But at the same time, they should be loose enough not to look homosexual. I usually go for relaxed fit cut.

 

[HandyAndy]

Yeah go for an easy for standard fit. Gap has some great jeans too

Before anybody says anything, Gap's jeans are actually pretty good these days. Their standard fit is a good fit to go by.

It really depends on your bodytype and what look you're going for. The slim fit, and even extremely slim fit look is kinda "in" these days, but you need a slim body to pull it off, and personally I think it looks retarded unless you can really pull it off. It may be "in style", but it's hardly sexy or masculine. Nothing's worse than shin-hugger jeans.

You don't want too baggy, either. I'd say something that hugs your butt just a little bit, but still a little loose through the leg.

I have a solid build. I have big hockey legs. I don't know what I'm looking for to be exact. I've been told I wear things that are too big. I figured out how to solve the shirt problem because I was told what I should look for, but jeans I have no clue.

baggy is a huge no-no

get a relaxed fit

expensive jeans aren't the "key" to anything but debt - with that said, i prefer rock & republic jeans to most brands, although there are some great lines you can find from different designers.

 

[Master Bates]

^ also true. Unless you specially want the kind of styles that tend to only be available in really expensive jeans, don't bother with them. They're a waste of money. You can get very nice looking, nice fitting, comfortable jeans that won't fall apart for well under a hundred dollars.

That last pair of jeans I bought were at Old Navy, on sail for $20. So Cheapies. I tried to go for a tighter fit, but It doesn't hug my a$$. I'd guess baggy at the a$$.

Not too lose nor too tight for me. I see guys wearing girl jeans sometimes but my legs are too big from lifting to wear those, haha!

I don't have female friends.

Yeah definitely go with jeans that 'fit' your body. That kinowear site seems to discuss this thoroughly.
