Because denim is a heavy fabric, many people find it uncomfortable to wear during the dog days of summer – when the heat and humidity take their toll on us all. Lucky for the fashionistas, some bright spark came up with the idea of simply cropping trousers shorter to provide a bit of relief. Some cropped jeans are three-quarter length, others are cropped at the knee or just below it – the idea is just to keep the trousers short, but not too short.
Cropped jeans are most popular with women – men tend to opt for shorts over three-quarter-length trousers in most cases. Where the high-fashion denim market is concerned, women are definitely the key to any brand’s success in the summer months. Great cropped jeans for women in the spring and summer months are: FCUK’s three-quarter length pinstripe trousers and Levi’s Red Tab 418 Tapered Capris. In the high-end denim market, 7 For All Mankind lead the field with the cropped Dojo and Roxanne styles for women. Similar fits on offer include the Penelope from Juicy Couture, Burberry’s cropped jeans, Miss Sixty’s cropped denim trousers, True Religion’s Kate and the slightly less rigid Sweet Dream Cut Off Crop from Lucky Brand Jeans. Also popular is the more relaxed ‘Sammy’ style cropped jeans on offer by True Religion.
Some cropped options do exist for men in the upcoming denim collections. Among the most popular are likely to be the Levi’s Red Tab 224 Jam Gold Rush and a selection of cropped trousers and jeans from the urban clothing favourites such as Billabong, Quicksilver and Bench are likely to appear as the spring turns ebbs into summer.
Buying cropped jeans online is fairly easy, but it is advisable to get an idea of the length of the jeans by visiting a shop in your local shopping centre to try the styles you like out. Also, once you’ve chosen a brand an style that suits you, always buy from an online retailer with a clear return policy and established reputation for reliability and authentic merchandise.
