For some, skinny jeans are a go-to wardrobe staple, but for others, quite the opposite is true. As someone who personally loathes the way skinny jeans look on my body, I sympathize with those of you who identify as an "anti-skinny jeans" wearer. There is nothing wrong with loving skinny jeans just as there is nothing wrong with loving flared or cropped jeans—it's all a matter of personal preference—but today, I am here to cater to the straight-leg loving jean shoppers of the world, so if that ain't you, keep scrolling. 

We often serve you content on how to style jeans or what cuts are trending, but it has been a while since we had a simple shopping roundup of the best straight-leg jeans on the market. Ahead, you will find a curation of my personal favorite jeans right now including distressed, black, and classic '90s styles all in the straight-leg silhouette of course. So if you're in need of some new denim, this shopping roundup should be your saving grace.
