Non Low Rise Jeans?

Mujib · Sep 25, 2007

Are any of these "high end" jeans available in loose, mid rise (or high rise?) styles? I cannot wear low rise, but it seems every decent pair of jeans out there today are low rise.

I apologize if this has already been answered. I searched but did not find any related posts.

Ill give my usual reply: LVC 501 33/37/55 ! I hate lowrise jeans myself, and really like these cuts. The first two are wider leg and more anti-fit, with buckle back.

5ep has a non low rise jeans. It's zipper straight cut, I think. Ihave a pair absolutely love them. Levi's LVC 55 501 is also a non low rise.

I will give my usual advice:

Sugar Cane Jeans; the LEVIS 47 or 55 repros are a good place to start.

Depends on your 'feel' of low rise. Different people have different comfort levels. I find that 11.5-12 inch rise works comfortably for me. Below 11.5 and I'm always pulling it up, higher than 12 and I'm pulling it down.

APC Rescue
Nudie BB--if you can still find them
ALD Fronteir doesn't look low rise, neither does Nudie RR

Measure the rise of a jean you feel is good and cross-check with the affiliate websites and BiG.

I would also say that the 5EP Low down Bootcut and Straight Down Zip would be good choices as well.

Brian278 · Sep 25, 2007

Definitely 5EP. Straight Down Zip for a higher rise, more relaxed cut.

I don't consider the Nudie Regular Alf or Average Joe to be a low rise. Not sure if they're too tight though. 5EP has already been mentioned, but I think Rag & Bone RB6 (especially the ones Denim Bar has on sale) would fit the bill nicely. Also, if you want a dry jean to break in, the APC Rescue would be a great place to start.

if u like a slimmer/bordering on skinny cut, acne has a cut called the "mix", which is considered a high rise by them and it fits pretty good IMO....i'm used to wearing low rises and though i could tell its higher rise, i still like the fit...for some reason though, its not a very popular cut relative to their other cuts...ive never seen it carried by any online retailer besides acne themselves

RB6 nigggs.

Imperial King is what you're looking for.

Wow - those are some expensive jeans. I should have mentioned that I cannot afford to pay more than $100 for a pair of jeans.

I guess Levi's are the only option for me.

Seems like "high end" isnt really what youre after then... Cultizm.com has 501 37s for 159$, which is a great deal..
