Ditch Your Standard Skinnies for These Wide-Leg Jeans

We love a good pair of skinny jeans as much as the next person. After all, the once-trendy item has become a classic staple among our denim collection. However, sometimes we want to mix things up—which is why we have our eyes on wide-leg jeans this summer. As a stark contrast to the fitted favorite, creating a wide-leg jeans outfit for summer can be trickier than you’d expect.
Without a doubt, it can be done. Wide-leg jeans will not only elevate your summer look with an air of polish, but you’ll also be so comfortable as you’re making your regular commute or heading to lunch with friends. To illustrate our point, we’ve curated a number of our favorite looks from street style stars. From a simple take on jeans and tee to a cool statement top ensemble, let these looks serve as sartorial inspiration, and then shop the pieces you need to add these outfits to your own closet.
If the weather happens to be on the breezier side, throw on a cropped jacket to keep a layer on. This will be an ultra-comfortable look for summer.
Summer is a great time to wear those floral blouses. Wear yours with your wide-leg jeans for a modern boho look.
You wide-leg jeans don’t have to be the hero of your outfit. Wear a cool statement top over them with a belt for a relaxed but eye-catching outfit.
Have a cool, full-length pair? Wear them with a loose tunic to keep everything on the flowy side for a chic but casual look.
Let your jeans accompany some bright colors. Style yours with a bright and colorful button-down shirt.
We’ll always say yes to a denim-on-denim look. Wearing all denim with a pair of wide-leg jeans will take your ensemble to the next level.
When in doubt, go for a classic white tee to wear with your jeans. You simply can’t go wrong here.
Create a retro-inspired look with a Canadian tuxedo and wear a denim jacket in the same wash as your jeans. Because you simply can’t get enough denim.
With these wide-leg jean outfits, we guarantee that you'll have a number of outfits that'll keep you feeling cool and chic all summer long.
