Kind of Western: The Branded Fall Denim Fit Guide

Your new favorite jeans are waiting.

Good denim is the start of just about every great fall outfit. It works for school mornings, long days at the barn, Friday-night football, concerts, date nights, and every ordinary day in between.

But finding the right pair? That can feel like a whole different job.

Bootcut or straight leg? Mid-rise or high-rise? Dark wash or light? A tried-and-true classic or something a little more on trend?

We’ve rounded up some of our favorite Western jeans for women, men, and kids to help you find the fit worth making room for in your closet.

Western Jeans for Women

The Bootcut: Timeless, flattering, and made for your favorite boots, the bootcut is a Western wardrobe staple for a reason.

The Wrangler Retro Bailey High-Rise Bootcut Jean offers a curve-loving high-rise fit with plenty of Western attitude. It’s a great choice when you want comfortable denim that still gives you a defined, feminine shape.

Prefer a mid-rise? The Wrangler Retro Mae Bootcut Jean is an easy everyday favorite. It is available in several washes, including options in plus sizes, and there is even a matching girls’ style.

Pair your bootcuts with a tucked-in top, a statement belt and the boots you reach for again and again.

The Wide Leg: Wide-leg denim gives a classic Western outfit a fresh, modern shape without losing its wear-everywhere versatility.

The Kimes Ranch Olivia Stovepipe Jean combines premium denim with an easy stovepipe silhouette. Available in light and dark washes, it looks just as good with a fitted tee as it does with a sweater or blazer.

For a lighter wash and relaxed fall look, try the Stetson No. 675 Mid-Rise Wide-Leg Jean. Add a tucked-in blouse and pointed-toe boots for an outfit that feels polished without feeling overdone.

The Trouser and Flare: A little longer, a little dressier, and just right for making an entrance.

The Ariat Daisy High-Rise Slim Trouser Jean creates a long, flattering line and is available in regular and plus sizes.

For a more dramatic silhouette, the Wrangler Bespoke High-Rise Flare Jean delivers a statement-making fit in several washes.

Trouser and flare jeans are especially good for concerts, fall parties, date nights and those occasions when you want your denim to feel a little more dressed up.

Complete Her Fall Look

Once you have the jeans, the rest is easy.

Layer on the Wrangler Canyon Sweater in Brown for a warm fall palette, or add the Women’s Short-Sleeve Eyelet Top in Black for a feminine contrast.

Finish the outfit with the Dingo Run Wild Leather Bootie in Leopard, a statement buckle or a grab-and-go sling bag.

Western Jeans for Men

The Bootcut: Made for boots and built for everyday wear, men’s bootcut jeans remain a Western essential.

The Wrangler Retro Slim-Fit Bootcut Jean offers a streamlined fit through the seat and thigh before opening over a pair of boots. Select styles are available in extended waist sizes up to 46.

For more room through the seat and thigh, choose the Wrangler Retro Relaxed Bootcut Jean. It provides a comfortable fit with the classic stacked-over-boots finish.

The Straight Leg: Clean, comfortable and easy to wear from the workday through the weekend, straight-leg denim is a dependable choice for men who don’t want an exaggerated boot opening.

The Cinch White Label Relaxed Straight Jean is a longtime favorite with a relaxed fit. Select washes are also available in 38- and 40-inch inseams.

The Rock & Roll Denim Double Barrel Straight-Leg Jean brings a little more attitude while keeping the fit comfortable and easy to wear.

Light-Wash Denim: Light-wash jeans give a fall outfit a relaxed, already-broken-in look.

The Cinch Ian Slim-Fit Bootcut Jean offers a cleaner, more streamlined silhouette and comes in several washes.

For more room, the Ariat M3 Loose-Fit Jean is made for long days, plenty of movement and comfortable everyday wear.

Complete His Fall Look

Pair new jeans with a Cinch Arenaflex Western Button-Down or a Wrangler Retro Western Snap Shirt.

For more casual days, reach for the Ariat Made for Farmer Graphic Tee or layer on a Wrangler hoodie when the temperature drops.

Don’t Forget the Kids

The littlest cowboys and cowgirls need denim that can keep up with school days, barn chores and fall adventures.

For the girls, the Wrangler Bespoke Bootcut Jean in Ada brings grown-up Western style to a kid-friendly fit. Add the Wrangler Wide Open Spaces Hoodie and Roper Glitter Rose Western Boots for a complete cowgirl look.

For the boys, start with the Cinch Relaxed-Fit Bootcut Jean. Pair it with a Cinch Western shirt and the Roper Draftmaster Boot for a look ready for everything on the fall calendar.
