Authentic Stretch High-Rise Skinny, available in four colors, $68
When it comes to jeans, I'm pretty picky. I stick to the brands I know and love and am apprehensive about buying new ones, especially stretch denim. Stretchy jeans, jeggings, whatever you call them — I've never found a pair that is as flattering as it is comfortable. Plus, if I'm wearing jeans, I want to look like I'm wearing jeans, not glorified leggings.
I tried Everlane's Authentic Stretch High-Rise Skinny and it's truly unlike any pair of stretch denim I've tried before. They are soft and stretchy, easy to slip on and button, but when you touch them, they have the same rugged feel of actual denim. A drawback of most jeggings is the pockets that are sewn shut so you can't even use them, but all the pockets here are actually functional.
This pair strikes the unique balance that I've yet to find in in other styles of jeans, especially at this price point — a flattering, true denim style with a comfortable, stretchy feel that you'll actually want to wear all day long. — Remi Rosmarin, Insider Picks intern
