Men's Trends on Jeans Wear

  • Typically worn slim to very skinny, black jeans have been a street favorite this season and have remained a major denim theme on the runway. Whether dressed up or down, this is a versatile trend with solid staying power
  • With the recent opening of the Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream Boutique in NYC, the streets of Soho were packed young guys wearing their signature denim lines. Guys were strutting their stuff in the "ice cream running dog" jean in orange, white and even glow-in-the-dark versions! A great new graphic treatment for denim that can run through fall and into spring!
  • Moving away from summer’s slouchy silhouettes, fall denims present a clean tailored line. From fabric manufacturers to runway collections, the key aspects are: deep indigo hues, flat and pressed finish, and sharp sculpted cuts. Dressed up with a crisp shirt, or down with casual sneakers, it’s a look with endless potential.
  • Men’s jeans have been getting skinnier and skinnier to the point where they are getting tight like tights! Washes are varied, from black and dark to light and bleached. From the runway and the red carpet to the street, one thing is for sure; these jeans are so snug they fit like a glove!
  • Denim moves from slim to baggy in a variety of dark washes
  • Full legs are scrunched at the ankle
  • Subtle cross-hatching adds discreet texture
  • Mercerized Shine
  • Polished Flat Front
  • Super Dark Washes
