Denim fits: Straight vs. Slim vs. Skinny

Awesome for us, we have a great selection of pant fits to choose from. However, one thing people are always confusing are slim fits and skinny jeans. To plainly get it out of the way, SLIM FIT IS NOT SKINNY. Nowhere near. Sure, they sound similar but if you go to a store and try on both fits, you will know that they are drastically different. Allow me to explain.
Here are the three fits in question.

Straight fit is usually the standard type of fit for denim. There are also Boot Cut and “Relaxed”, but for the sake of comparison, we won’t talk about them now. Straight fits are good with any kind of shoes you wear, and nearly any kind of physique. They’re just standard fit denim, no questions asked. If you aren’t sure, go with straight as they will never fail you.
