Nothing pulls together the core of your closet like the perfect pair of jeans. A nod to "turn of the century" workwear, denim trousers keep evolving through modern iterations of tailoring and washes. The laidback silhouette of the moment–the relaxed jean–has just the right blend of carefree contrarian in its easygoing shape and comfortable fit.

Elevated styles that work in any set and setting exude sophisticated ease. An endearing horseshoe shape offers a trompe l'oeil trick with its unusual silhouette, while cuffed denim calls to mind a more masculine mid-century fit that’s slouchy and oversized. Choose a looser straight leg that references ‘90s denim and pays homage to the head-to-toe cowboy look, especially when your footwear deserves a second glance.

True to form, relaxed jeans embody this devil-may-care attitude of effortless cool, designed with integrity to be the single most flexible garment in your essentials mix.
