Finding the perfect pair of jeans isn’t just about the right size—it’s about how they’ll fit after you’ve worn them for a few hours. Denim naturally relaxes over time, even premium-quality jeans. If they feel just right when you first try them on, there’s a good chance they’ll stretch out and start slipping down as you wear them.

That’s why it can be a good idea to try on 2 - 3 sizes when shopping for jeans—after you've looked at the sizing chart, try your usual size, one that’s slightly smaller and maybe one that is bigger. If you can comfortably button the smaller pair (even if they feel a little snug at first), they’ll likely relax into the perfect fit after a few hours of wear.

Of course, you don’t want jeans that feel uncomfortably tight, but a little initial snugness can prevent them from stretching out too much later. It’s a simple trick that helps keep your jeans fitting perfectly!
