"My husband may very well be the pickiest jean shopper to inhabit planet Earth. But considering how little the majority of us enjoy shopping for jeans, I wonât lay claim to that title on his behalf. For my husband, if he doesn’t like the fit, the material, the wash, the trendinessâthe list goes onâthen it is a hard pass, and the jeans either donât cross the threshold of the store weâre shopping in, or they are promptly mailed back and deemed an online shopping mistake.

Because of my husbandâs general view on jean shopping, it only makes sense that itâs not an activity he looks forward to. In contrast to my husband, however, I personally love shopping and am therefore always looking to help him find clothing he truly loves. Recently, I was able to convince him to try a pair of Abercombie & Fitch men’s jeans, explaining to him that I wear the brandâs jeans almost exclusively. I wasnât sure what to expect, but it certainly wasnât the reality that I was greeted with: He loved them. Loved them! No one was more shocked than me.Â
Available in six washes, including white, light-wash, medium-wash, and black.
Come in sizes 28 – 40, plus 28, 30, 32, and 34 lengths.
My husbandâmy very Ron Swanson-esque husbandâis now a die-hard fan of Abercrombie Men’s Athletic Straight Jeans. Hereâs why:
An Honest Review of Abercrombie Men’s Jeans
They Fit True to Size
Itâs no small secret that when it comes to shopping, âjeansâ are usually at the top of most individualsâ âThings I Hate Shopping Forâ list of dread. Even when shopping in person, it can be a frustrating experience. Between brand sizing (as many of us know, every brand fits just a little bit differently) and material (i.e., stretch or no stretch), it can be difficult to find a style and size at any given moment that you find flattering and comfortable. Online shopping can be even more frustrating for obvious reasons.Â
One thing my husband loves about these Abercrombie men’s jeans is that they fit true to size. In other words, you get what youâre expecting after you hit âplace order.â This quality, of course, makes for an ideal shopping experienceââThey fit just like I expected them to.”âbut also positions the pants as a great gifting item. You can buy them for the men in your life without having to worry about whether or not their usual size will fit.
They Feel Like Actual Jeans
My husband is very sensitive to any and all jeans that have any resemblance to jeggings. Stretch material is not his thing. These Athletic Straight Jeans contain very little elastane (1-2 percent, depending on the wash), which means the majority cotton construction allows the pants to maintain the consistency of traditional jeans. So, if youâre on the hunt for menâs jeans that actually feel like jeans, these are the pair for you.
They’re Comfortable
My husband comments on how comfortable these jeans are at least three times a week. He knows that I am already aware; he just loves them so much he canât help but tell me almost every time he wears them. He comments on the material but also on their constructionâhe often tells me he loves the shape and that they are spacious without being unflattering. To quote a text message from my husband directly following a recent cross-country flight: âThese Abercrombie jeans are the best Iâve ever owned. Theyâre so comfortable.âÂ
I can attest that these jeans have become his life companion. Iâve seen him wearing them while scaling playground equipment, heading out the door to work, chauffeuring our family around, and more.
They Come in Many Washes
From white to black to various shades of blue denim, these jeans are available in a wide variety of colors and washes. As my husbandâs spouse, I particularly love this as I now know that when Iâm short on a gift idea come Christmas or my husbandâs birthday, I can nab a pair of these jeans in a color he does not yet own. A wide range of washes also means that his wardrobe can now give the illusion of being diverse, even if itâs really just the same style of jeans over and over again.
Available in six washes, including white, light-wash, medium-wash, and black.
Come in sizes 28 – 40, plus 28, 30, 32, and 34 lengths.
My husband is not a fashionista. He does not care about aesthetics or trends or being âin styleâ in general. For him to go out of his way to comment on how much he loves an article of clothing, said item must be superior. These jeans fit that âsuperiorâ bill. Spend the $80 in confidenceâI know my husband will be wearing these pants until they are literally in tatters. Which speaking from years of experience wearing A&F clothing, will be quite a long time from now. Â
