The Urban Outfitters storefronts are already announcing the arrival of the winter season, and if one thing is clear, it is that wide-leg pants are going to be the main protagonists. From wide and relaxed leg designs to baggy styles that add a vintage touch to any look, current fashion rescues this style with renewed strength. The reason? Well, of course the first thing one thinks of is comfort, relaxed style, and a versatility that makes these pants a perfect choice for any occasion, especially when the weather invites you to combine layers and textures, before Let Punxsutawney Phil come out of his burrow.
Wide-cut pants have a history that goes back several decades. We rewind the video cassette to the 70s, when we first saw the flared, wide-leg pants that debuted in the fashion world, becoming a symbol of youth rebellion and pop culture of the time. Then, in the ’90s, the baggy style took over the streets, with influences ranging from hip-hop to grunge, giving life to a fashion that celebrated excess fabric and a carefree silhouette. This style, marked by freedom and personal expression, returns today with a modern aesthetic, and Urban Outfitters has managed to capture it in numerous of its pants that we will see below.
Goodbye Slim-Fitting Jeans — Hello Wide-Leg Pants From BDG
Fashion always finds a way to come back, and this time, wide-leg pants are sweeping street style, thank God, because our editors have been demanding their return for months! After years dominated by skinny jeans, loose and relaxed cuts have earned a place in the wardrobes of those seeking style but also comfort in everyday life. Within this trend, BDG has launched an exclusive line of jeans available only at Urban Outfitters that perfectly meet the demand of contemporary fashionistas.
We start by taking a look at the Logan Buckle Baggy Barrel Jean which is a tribute to the “baggy” aesthetic of the 90s, combining retro elements with modern details that make it stand out. This model, exclusive to UO, features a loose fit with a mid-rise waist, perfect for achieving a relaxed look without losing style. One of the details that makes the difference in these jeans is the buckle on the back, which allows you to adjust the waist to personalize the fit and play with the height level at the hip.
The “barrel” cut leg is loose and comfy, which will accentuate the carefree air that these jeans will apply to your body, while the hem has slight tears that give it that touch of “lived in” without excesses. Plus, the stitching details at the knees and the stiffness of the BDG denim ensure these jeans are durable and maintain their structure. This design is ideal for those looking for an urban, relaxed look, adaptable to different occasions. Regular price is $69, but they are on sale for a limited time to $48.30.
BDG Kayla Low Rider Low-Rise Jean: el regreso de los low-rise
If you are a fan of Y2K fashion, but without the panic over the computer cataclysm that they said was going to happen (and it didn’t happen), the BDG Kayla Low Rider Low-Rise Jean It’s for you.
This model perfectly captures the essence of the 2000s with its low waist and relaxed straight cut that are reminiscent of the video clips of Nelly Furtado, Cristina Aguilera or Kelly Rowland. Unlike other low-rise jeans, the Kayla design features a rigid denim structure that softens over time for a more comfortable fit without losing shape.
These jeans feature a straight-leg silhouette that provides a casual and easy look, perfect for pairing with T-shirts or crop tops, and then throwing on a blazer or jacket. The five-pocket structure and zipper closure offer the classic touch that any jean lover values. The regular price is $69 and it’s on sale for a limited time, but you have to choose the size to know how much discount you’ll get (it ranges from $48.30 to $55.30).
BDG Bella Baggy Jean: Effortless Comfort
Finally, we have the BDG Bella Baggy Jean, a choice of our editor for its successful combination of comfort and style executed in a masterful way. This model, also exclusive to Urban Outfitters, features a low waist that sits right on the hips, offering a relaxed fit without being excessive. The Bella Baggy They feature a loose cut that fits slightly towards the end, achieving a slightly tapered effect that prevents the look from looking too unstructured.
The Bella silhouette is particularly interesting because, although it is loose, its slight taper towards the hem creates a visual balance that stylizes the legs without giving up the “baggy” effect. With a full length that pools slightly over the shoes, these jeans offer a casual look that is ideal for those who want to add a relaxed touch to their outfit. This model is also made with BDG’s classic rigid denim, ensuring good resistance and durability. The price at UO is $51 but is marked down to $41.30 for a limited time.
