Dark blue high-waisted jeans with a slim fit and flared legs are easy to style with a T-shirt, blouse or jumper. However, buying online can be disappointing. With the women’s jeans Levi's 726 high rise flare dark blue in particular, the fit, stretch and leg length all have a major impact on comfort.
1. Looking only at the waist size
A jeans size such as 27, 28 or 30 does not tell you everything. The 726 has a high-rise design that sits higher on the waist and fits closely around the hips and upper thighs. A size that appears right at the waist may therefore feel different around the hips.
2. Ignoring the length
Women’s flared jeans need extra attention when it comes to the inside-leg measurement. Trousers that are too short may not show off the flared shape properly. Trousers that are too long can drag on the ground, particularly in rainy Dutch weather or when you wear flat shoes.
3. Confusing stretch with a loose fit
Stretch makes jeans more flexible, but it does not turn the cut into a wide or relaxed fit. According to the product information, the Levi's 726 remains slim through the hips and thighs and flares out from the knee. If you are looking for a loose fit, it is better to choose a different cut.
The Levi's 726 women’s jeans have a high waist, a slim fit around the hips and upper thighs, and a leg that flares out from the knee. The product information gives a knee width of 37 cm and a leg opening of 52.5 cm for a reference size. The proportions may vary between sizes.
This style is ideal if you want to combine a streamlined silhouette with the character of flared jeans. Wear them with a fitted top to define the waist, or with an oversized jumper for a more relaxed outfit.
According to the product description, the composition of the 726 is:
According to Levi's product information, the jeans feature Stellar Stretch technology, designed to combine soft stretch with shape retention. This is a claim made in the brand’s product information; practical experience may vary from person to person.
Thanks to the elastane and other fibres, these women’s stretch jeans feel more flexible than jeans made from 100% cotton. Always check the composition and washing instructions for the specific version before buying.
For the available versions, the size consists of two parts: the waist size and the length, for example 29/32 or 28/34. The first measurement refers to the waist and the second to the inside-leg length in inches.
Some listed measurements:
Measure your waist where you want to wear the women’s high-waisted jeans. Also measure a well-fitting pair of trousers from the crotch to the hem. Compare both measurements with the size guide on the product page. The “true to size” description is a guideline from the product information, not a guarantee that the fit will be the same for every body shape.
Why it suits this profile: A practical choice if you are buying dark blue women’s flared jeans for the first time and need a longer inside-leg length.
The product page lists both the waist and length measurements, so you do not have to rely on size 27 alone.
Waist approximately 68.5 cm, inside-leg length approximately 86 cm and a composition containing 2% elastane.
Why it suits this profile: Suitable if you are looking for dark blue women’s jeans in a regular length and a fabric blend containing Lyocell.
The stated length of approximately 81 cm makes the choice more specific than a general description such as “standard length”.
Size 30/32, 85% cotton, 7% Lyocell and 2% elastane according to the product description.
Why it suits this profile: The combination of stretch and a pronounced flare is well suited to cycling, walking and being active every day.
The composition lists elastane and elastomultiester, giving you more information about flexibility than the word “comfort” alone.
