The Best Of Brown Jeans

Brown jeans read as trousers: a chocolate straight leg with a knit and loafer looks composed. Shop 24 pairs from Citizens of Humanity and LEVI'S, $78 to $350.

Why brown denim is everywhere right now

Blue denim never went anywhere, but brown is what the newness is built on this season. Part of it is the wider shift toward warm neutrals: chocolate, cedar, ash and oat read as considered in a way indigo does not, and they sit closer to a trouser than a jean once you put them with a knit and a loafer. Part of it is silhouette. The labels pushing brown hardest are the same ones pushing barrel legs, low rises and loose straights, so the colour arrived attached to the shapes people already wanted. It also solves a real problem. A brown jean does not fight a brown boot or a tan bag the way blue does, which makes an outfit easier to finish and is why the shade keeps showing up on people who own plenty of denim already. This edit runs from $78 to $350 across twenty-four pairs, sorted by price so the jumps are visible. If you want to keep browsing, I also put together Barrel Jeans and Khaite Jeans.
