The Perfect High-Rise Waist
Cassie Super High-Rise Straight Jeans in Bowery [3] ($138, plus 30 percent off)
"These jeans are everything I look for in a pair of denim. The rise on a size 24 is 11.5 inches (yes, I measured), which is honestly amazing. A lot of jeans high-rise jeans I've tried have a rise of only around 10 inches, but since I'm 5'6" I always look for something higher. I've also been steering away from skinny jeans, so the straight leg on this pair is exactly what I've been looking for. The "Bowery" wash is perfect and goes with everything, and the cut is extremely flattering. I love that they're 100% cotton and have the same feel as a great vintage pair of denim. I've been wearing these jeans on repeat, and I don't see myself stopping anytime soon." — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social producer
A Cool and Modern Silhouette
Cassie Super High-Rise Straight Jeans in Tilburry [4] ($138, plus 30 percent off)
"These jeans are structured enough to feel like you've made an effort with getting dressed, but comfortable enough to wear on a lazy day at home. The wide leg enables my movements, while the wash has a laidback vibe. Altogether, the silhouette is modern and cool, making these jeans perfect for casual outings." — Shelcy Joseph, assistant editor, Commerce
Incredibly Comfortable Leather
Cassie Super High-Rise Straight Jeans in Carmine [5] ($158, plus 30 percent off)
"I typically shy away from leather pants because I worry they'll be constricting, but OMG, this style is buttery-soft and so comfortable. I got compliments on them all night long. Plus, they kept me warm without being sticky or noisy how leather can be. I think I need the black pair as well." — Macy Cate Williams, senior editor, Commerce
Elongates Your Legs
Cassie Super High-Rise Straight Jeans in Tilburry [6] ($138, plus 30 percent off)
"After practically living in sweatpants and leggings since 2020, I've slowly been reintroducing high-rise jeans into my rotation. It hadn't been going well until I tried these. They hug my waist for a fitted look at the top, yet are so lightweight I don't feel constricted or like I'm going to burst out of them — even after a big lunch. The relaxed, straight leg style makes my legs appear nice and long and gives any look an effortless, cool-girl vibe." — Sarah Ferguson, associate content director, Makeup.com and Skincare.com
