15 Of The Best Jeans You Can Buy Online

Despite the love for comfy matching sweatsuits and no-fuss leggings, jeans are proving their sartorial resilience as a timeless closet staple. The classic garment is at the very the top of our shopping lists year-round, and we’ve got our eyes out for the best jeans for women right now to upgrade our existing collections.

Of course, as far as denim is concerned, there are the heavy hitters (lookin’ at you, Levi’s) that are always a safe bet. But retailers like Abercrombie & Fitch, Everlane, and Anthropologie have stepped up their game over the past few seasons, which means shoppers have more choice than ever before in the denim department. To help narrow down the search for the best pick of the bunch, we’ve sought the advice of shoppers who’ve doled out their stamps of approval in the form of stars and ratings. From a baggy Urban Outfitters pair with over 2,800 reviews to an under-$30 option that’s got shoppers racing to hit that “add to cart” button, we’ve rounded up 15 of the top-rated styles on the internet to get you closer to your perfect match.

Maybe you’re a fan of the perfect medium between skinny and loose-fit jeans. You like the slim-fit style but don’t want them to be not too long or too short. What can we say? Some people know what they want. Well, the denim that you can claim is just right is here, from J.Crew 

“I’m very glad I purchased the Vintage Straight Jean. I was searching for white denim jeans, specifically a straight, not skinny, pair for a business-casual work office,” writes a reviewer. “The denim is soft and stretchy and these jeans are very comfortable to wear. I’m 5’6 and 130 lbs and the 28 fits me well.”

Best For: Wide leg jeans

H&M jeans are not to be overlooked.

Read ahead for a reviewer who wore their pair of wide high jeans until there was a hole!

“These are literally my favorite jeans in the world. As a taller woman (5’8), I have a hard time finding flattering jeans that are long enough and not wicked skinny,” shares a reviewer. “These are so perfect! I literally wore my last pair until there was a hole I couldn’t mend. Do your butt a favor and buy these.”

Your pile of light-wash jeans has never seen this one coming.

Buy these statement-making jeans for a ‘fit that everyone will remember.

“I just pulled these out of the box, and I am already obsessed. The color is a great light wash, the rise is perfect, and the fit through the legs is *chef’s kiss*” an ecstatic reviewer writes. “I’m a tall girl (5’10) and the longer inseam is great. Favorite pair of Agolde denim so far! I wish they had this fit in more washes. Also it does run a tad big. I’m typically between a 27 and 28 and I ordered the 27, which I’m glad I did.”

Penny Pull-On Printed Flare Jeans, $98

The Hype: 4.7 out of 5 stars; 122 reviews on FreePeople.com
Best For: Retro-inspired flare jeans

Introducing the most playful jeans that deserve a section of their own. First, don’t worry about zippers, buttons, and the overall suffocating tightness of jeans. Free People has the most eye-catching pair of pull-on jeans with various bold boho prints that you’ll be obsessed with — there are zebra prints, floral designs, etc. Also, the elastic waistband comfortably hugs your waist, leaving you wondering where these were all your life.

“I love these jeans and the stretch that’s added to them. They feel great on and wasn’t to long for us shorty girls,” shares a reviewer. “I bought a size 28s and they’re a little loose in my waist, but fits everywhere else perfectly so I’m okay. I bought them in five colors and just spotted one more I want to buy.”

Classic Fit Olivia Sculpting Skinny Jean, $89.95

The Hype: 4.3 out of 5 stars; 316 reviews on ELOQUII.com
Best For: Skinny jeans

(Fans of this snug fit will deny that the trend is actually over.) Eloquii customers count themselves among skinny-jean existing champions, especially when it comes to the brand’s best-selling Olivia silhouette.

“Fabric is very good quality in my opinion. Generally, jeans with good stretch tend to be very thin fabric and break at the inner thighs in no time! I am super confident these ones will keep shape and all for a long time! Definitely recommend them,” writes one reviewer.

“Saying I’m IN LOVE with these jeans is an understatement. I honestly feel that these jeans were MADE for me personally. [They] are so comfortable and [have] such a good fit I would wear these everyday if I could. The material is perfect,” writes one reviewer. “I really am not into high waisted jeans, but I love how these fit me,” another reviewer shares. They loved the fit of the bottoms so much that they even convinced their mom to buy a pair. “They make me feel so much better about how I look in high waisted jeans and are so so soft!! I absolutely am in love with these jeans.”

Levi’s 725 High Rise Bootcut, $69.50

The Hype: 4.2 out of 5 stars; 216 reviews on Levi.com
Best For: Bootcut jeans

When I say jeans, you say Levi’s. That’s the name of the game in the world of denim. So the only thing that beats a classic pair from the brand is a pair that’s got lots of good reviews … to boot! (Sorry, had to.)

“Bootcut is more flattering on my body type than skinnies or a straight-leg pair. The stretch is adequate to make the jeans form-fitting and not uncomfortable at the waist. I even bought another pair,” writes a reviewer.

Madewell Mid-Rise Perfect Vintage Jean, $128

The Hype: 4.2 out of 5 stars; 113 reviews on Madewell.com
Best For: Mid-rise jeans

For the past six years, successful shoppers have cited Madewell’s Perfect Vintage Jean as an unbeatable kind of denim find, so much so that the brand sells one every other minute. If you’ve got a shorter torso, this 1/2″ mid-rise version of the style is the one for you.

“Thank you for making these in a mid rise. This jean hits me perfectly now, where as before the regular vintage jean came up to my ribs. If you make them in other washes I will buy all of them,” exclaims a reviewer. “There is no extra fabric in the crotch like before in the original vintage jean. The back rise dips slightly in the back but it’s not a big deal. I am a size 6 and weigh 160 pounds and I’m 5’7” (for reference). They are slightly snug at first but then become a little looser after wearing for a bit. Please please please make them in other washes.”

Good American Good Boy Long Twisted Slit, $165, $115.50

For a trendy twist to your good ol’ high-waisted fit, consider this Good American option featuring of-the-minute slit-front hems.

AG Farrah High Waist Ankle Skinny Jeans, $198

The Hype: 4.3 out of 5 stars; 139 reviews on Nordstrom.com
Best For: Skinny jeans

If you’re searching for a pair of black jeans that glides on with that perfect amount of stretch, look no further. Your deepest wishes have been granted for a sleek high-waisted style and now your timeless bottoms are here to stay forever.

“I finally found a black pair of jeans! It honestly took forever. The material is perfect, stretchy, and does NOT attract things to it (like fuzzies),” shares a reviewer. “I am 5’2, 150lbs, curvy and went with a 28 (small waist, wide hips for reference). I would definitely recommend to go down a size. I could have even gone with a 27. You’ll enjoy these. It’s better than leggings!”

Mother The Weekender High-Rise Flare Jeans, $238

The Hype: 4.7 out of 5 stars; 15 reviews on Anthropologie.com
Best For: A nostalgic fit

If you ever imagined how it would feel like to kick up your boots in some 70s-inspired dungarees, then this is your chance. The vintage-inspired silhouette is a comfy piece that is quickly becoming a fan favorite.

“I was doubtful that these jeans would be as good as everyone says they are…they are even better,” writes a reviewer. “They’re so comfortable. I normally wear a 26 and that’s the size I got and although I could have probably tried the 25, I prefer the loose fit. Overall, you won’t be disappointed.”

Everlane The Way-High Jean, $98

The Hype: 4.27 out of 5 stars; 1,447 reviews on Everlane.com
Best For: Extra high-waist

There are high-rise jeans, and then there are where-did-my-belly-button-go? jeans — and this premium organic cotton pair by Everlane belongs to the latter category. That means denim that accentuates your true waist while lengthening your legs. No wonder they’ve racked up over 1,300 reviews from some very happy shoppers. 

“I LOVE these. Please never stop making them. They are hands down the most comfortable and flattering jeans I’ve ever found,” writes one reviewer. “I purchased these in rinsed indigo, and the fabric is the perfect mid-weight to wear in all seasons. It also has a tiny bit of stretch, which I wasn’t expecting, but I am so grateful for because it makes for a much more comfier fit without compromising a classic, rigid look. I have a 30″ waist, and took a 29, and they are my ideal fit. Not too relaxed, but comfy enough to wear all day every day,” another reviewer shares.
