Imogene + Willie rigid jeans

[ Edited ]

Not for everyone. These jeans are rigid.  No stretch.  Just 100% cotton.  They say this true to size, so pick your usual size. It might feel a bit snug at first, but it conform to your body after wearing it a couple of times.  The jean is very loose with a very high waist.  they have to be in order to get in them.  That jeans are full length.  I have one 100% cotton. (not this brand)  I really didn't need to struggle in to it at first, but it was perfectly fine after one wearing.  All inseams are  30" to 32" unrolled."  17" leg opening, so these jeans are a loose straight jean. Waist rise is high.  Everything from the fabric to the completed jean is made in the U.S.  The denim is raw and unwashed.  And wearing them will also soften the denim. 

 

They mend and take in and out your comfortable jeans you refuse to give up. They also can create a jean for you.  This is done in their Nashville store.

Thanks for sharing. Very interesting. They do look a little stiff and big to me, but as you posted, I guess that’s the result of the 100% cotton. I like the looks of the last pair in white best.

I really like the high waist.  That's where  my real waist is, at the small-ist  area.  Not inches below where my tummy is.

 

So, now I can measure my actual waist, and not the 'waist' across the top part of my tummy!

Re: Imogene + Willie rigid jeans

p.s.  I like numbers 2 and 4.  For my body type.  At the waist, etc. 

Crazy about the non-distressed looks.
