Denim is handled as big business at the RUSSH office, and finding the perfect baby blue jeans is a matter we take quite seriously.
Today, there are so many different types of denim – acid washes, selvedge, raw, dyed and distressed, high-waisted, low-rise and everything in between. But originally, denim was known more as a fabric before it became known as a jean. Its popularity dating back to the Gold Rush of 1853 and, despite popular belief, was French (notably founded in Nîmes) before it was American. Originally made for working men in all its proven durability and versatility, the blue jean is now widely accepted more as a wardrobe staple – perhaps more than any other garment.
Coming from a background working in menswear, the cut of a wide mens trouser or jean has always been of personal preference. And as far as womenswear goes, for those who like to steer clear of anything slim, tapered or fitted, it's often a struggle to find the right silhouette. However luckily, as things work around in cycles and seasons – it feels safe to say that the more boyishly low, relaxed, wide fitted and straight legged jean has surely come back into style.
So here at RUSSH below, our editors round up our favourite baby blue (low and relaxed) jeans, both perfectly treated to feel worn and washed, most of them tried and tested – a jean that will look and feel like you've had them forever.
