Black High-Rise Wide-Leg Jean, Cropped Hem

Black denim with a hem that stops early. The waist sits high, the fit runs relaxed through the hips and thighs, and the leg is cut wide and finished short.

That cropped hem is doing something useful: it puts whatever you are wearing on your feet fully in view, which is why this pair works as well with trainers as it does with heels. Comfort stretch denim keeps the fit flexible and helps it retain its shape, and the soft cotton blend underneath is durable enough for constant wear. The rise measures 10.5 inches, the inseam 26, the leg opening 12. Fabrication in black is 99% cotton and 1% spandex.

The silhouette leans contemporary without shouting. It layers under a jacket for something polished, or stands alone with a simple top for a look that needed no thought at all.
