Straight Jeans
A true classic, straight fit jeans are the perfect mix of comfort and style for kids of all ages. With straight legs from hip to ankle, they’re just right for everything from birthday parties to outdoor adventures. Dress them up with a smart shirt and lace-up shoes for a formal look or keep it casual with a tee and trainers.
Chino Jeans
Chino jeans are like the superhero of jeans—smart like trousers, tough like denim! They’re brilliant for when they need to look sharp but still be comfy. Pair them with a polo shirt and boat shoes for that preppy edge or go cosy with a sweatshirt and boots. Don’t forget to add a belt to finish off the look!
Jogger Jeans
Jogger jeans are all about easy-going comfort and style. With their stretchy drawstring waistband and cuffs, they’re ready for lounge or play. Perfect for playdates or just kicking back, these jeans let them move in style. Throw on a hoodie and trainers for a super relaxed vibe, or double on up denim by teaming with a denim jacket and high-top trainers.
Slim Jeans
For a versatile everyday style, slim jeans are the way to go. They offer a trendy style without feeling too tight. Team them with a T-shirt, trainers and a varsity jacket for an effortless sporty look they’ll wear on repeat.
Find the perfect pair of girls jeans to match every personality. From practical cargos to wide-leg jeans, skinny, classic straight fits, and relaxed styles, there’s something for everyone.
Cargo Jeans
Cargo jeans match utility with comfort. With extra leg pockets, they can keep their essentials on them wherever they go! With their relaxed fit, they’re great for days in the park or travels further afield. Pair them with a long sleeve T-shirt and trainers for an easy outfit option or dress them up with a denim blouse and sandals for a sunny-day style.
Wide Leg Jeans
Wide-leg jeans are a great choice as they have a loose fit that lends itself for busy days on the move. Add a tucked-in shirt and sandals for a light and breezy look in the summer. When it gets cooler, pair them with knitwear and boots.
Flare Jeans
Flare jeans are all about adding a bit of drama and fun to their outfit! With their slight flared legs from the knee, they give a wearable update on the original ‘70s style. Add a fine stripe knit and a canvas trainer to complete the retro look.
Skinny Jeans
Skinny jeans are like the leggings of the denim world. Slim-fitting, dress them down with a jumper and trainers for a relaxed style or add boots, and a puffer jacket. They’re perfect for showing off their favourite high-tops!
Relaxed Fit Jeans
For days when comfort is key, relaxed-fit jeans are their best bet. They’re like the Sunday of weekday style, but it does not mean they’re boring! You can find them with distressed, stud or diamanté. Simply add their favourite character T-shirt and a shacket when the weather gets cooler.
FAQ’s
How should kids’ jeans fit?
Kids’ jeans should strike the perfect balance between comfort and style! The key is finding a pair that allows them to move freely while looking great. The waistband should sit snugly without pinching, and the length should be just right—either skimming the ankle or slightly above, depending on the style. For high-waisted options, make sure they fit comfortably around the waist and hips. The goal is to keep them feeling confident and comfy.
How do you measure kids' jeans?
Measuring kids’ jeans is simple! Start by measuring the waist—have your child stand up straight and use a soft tape measure around the natural waistline, usually just above the belly button. Next, measure the inseam from the crotch to the ankle for the correct length. For the best fit, also measure the hips at the widest part. With these measurements, you’ll be able to find the perfect pair. And don’t forget to check for adjustable waistbands—they’re a lifesaver as your little one grows!
