Check the denim hem with your cold-weather shoes
Try wide-leg or barrel jeans with the boots you’ll wear most. A wide leg should clear the ground, and a shorter barrel hem can sit above the boot shaft without bunching.
Choosing between straight, wide, and barrel legs
Check waist, rise, and inseam before comparing straight, wide, and barrel legs. Try darker washes with a fitted knit and use the shoes you’ll actually wear to judge the hem length. Browse jeans for current options.
The Denim Trends Taking Over Fall 2026
There are trends, and then there’s denim — the wardrobe staple that comes back every season with a new reason to love it.
For Fall 2026, denim is getting a refresh with flattering silhouettes, darker washes, relaxed fits, and styling that feels polished without trying too hard. Whether you live in jeans or prefer a denim dress or skirt, there’s an easy way to bring the trend into your wardrobe.
Wide-Leg Jeans Are Staying
If you’ve fallen in love with wide-leg denim, good news: it isn’t going anywhere.
The relaxed silhouette makes even a basic outfit feel more styled. Pair wide-leg jeans with a fitted tank or bodysuit to balance the proportions, or add a blouse and heels for a dressier look.
Dark-Wash Denim Is Back
We love our light-wash denim, but darker washes are having their moment for fall.
Dark denim instantly feels polished and pairs perfectly with the season’s warm neutrals. Try dark-wash jeans with a cream top, brown accessories, and your favorite fall shoes for a look you can take from work to dinner.

Denim + Feminine Tops
One of our favorite combinations this season is structured denim paired with something soft and feminine.
Think lace, florals, ruffles, puff sleeves, and romantic blouses paired with your favorite jeans. The contrast keeps the outfit casual enough for everyday wear while still feeling put together.

Choose fall denim by the shoes you wear most
Try dark wide-leg jeans with low-profile sneakers, a flare with a stable boot heel, or a barrel leg with flats that show the tapered ankle. Check where the hem falls with the shoes on before you choose a length.
How to style wide-leg jeans for fall
Try high-rise wide-leg jeans with a fitted knit or tuck in a soft tee to show the waistband. If you want an extra layer, choose a jacket that ends near the waist so the outfit keeps its shape. For long hems, try the jeans on with the shoes you’ll wear most. Choose low-profile sneakers for a hem that clears the floor, or a low block heel when you need extra lift.
