Should there be any breaks when wearing straight leg or slim-fitted jeans

Dress pants are perfectly fine with minimal breaks, but does this apply to dark jeans as well?

I've found that for jeans specifically, unless you've rolled your pant leg or are wearing ball-buster skinny jeans, having some breaks is expected and not having any looks unnatural, and the pants are probably too short.

Don't make a thread for questions like this. Do some more reading... if you still haven't figured it out by looking at pictures/other threads, post in the ask a question thread.

i think it depends on your overall look and whatever else you're wearing - the more formal your outfit is, the less breaks your jeans should have, but as you move towards a more casual look, more breaks and stacking are fine.

obviously, wearing a blazer with dark jeans that stack heavily is going to look off.
