Straight-Leg Ripped Denim Jeans

Denim that already looks like it has a history. A hand-finished wash softens the surface to a pale, sun-faded blue, and the rips through the leg add the kind of wear that usually takes years to earn.

The cut is clean and straight, sitting at the mid waist and falling evenly from hip to ankle without clinging. Mid-weight denim holds its shape through a long day while staying supple enough to move with you, and the distressing is placed to open up rather than overwhelm the line of the leg.

Wear them with a tucked-in tee and flat sandals for a slow Saturday, or with a fine knit and ankle boots when the day runs into the evening. The straight leg reads sharp with a blazer and easy with a soft shirt, so they work equally well at a desk or a weekend lunch.

Note that sizing runs small compared with US and EU charts. If you fall between two sizes, take the larger, and allow 2-3 cm of difference in flat measurements.
