VALENCI · Denim fit guide
Which jeans fit suits you?
Slim fit, loose fit or skinny: not the name on the label, but the space around the hips, thighs and calves determines how a jeans feels to you.
The three fits next to each other
Loose fit: more room around the leg
Loose-fit jeans have a wider fit around the thigh and lower leg. This gives a relaxed silhouette. The Valenci loose-fit jeans black are described in the product information as loose-fitting and made of stretch denim. According to the product information, the Capo loose-fit jeans blue also have a loose cut, but are made of 100% cotton. The fabric may therefore feel different, even if both models are called loose fit.
Slim fit: follows the leg line
Slim-fit jeans are slimmer than loose fit, but the exact space differs per model. The Valenci slim-fit jeans gray are described as having a slight stretch. Look at the product photos and size information instead of going by the fit name alone.
Skinny fit: a more fitted line
Skinny is typically used for a close-fitting jeans from thigh to ankle. Pay extra attention to freedom of movement in the knees and calves. Not every skinny jeans is equally stretchy; check the fabric composition and size advice for each product. View the current jeans collection to see which models are online.
What should you pay attention to when trying it on?
Waistline: the waistband should stay in place without pinching. Hip and thigh: you must be able to sit and walk comfortably. Knee and calf: here you will notice the difference between a fitted and wide leg. Height: look how the pants fall on your shoes; the same jeans can look different at a different length.
Which fit do you choose for your style?
If you want a relaxed combination with a T-shirt or hoodie, start with a loose fit. For a narrower line with polo or shirt you can compare slim fit. Only choose skinny if you want a close-fitting leg. These are style recommendations, not hard and fast rules: your comfort and actual size come first.
Frequently asked questions about jeans fits
Is slim fit the same as skinny?
No. Slim fit follows the leg line; skinny is usually tighter, also around the calf. The exact difference depends on the model.
Is a loose fit automatically more comfortable?
More space can be nice, but fabric and size also count. For example, compare the stretch denim of the Valenci loose fit with the 100% cotton Capo loose fit.
Which jeans do you choose for wider thighs?
A loose-fit model usually provides more space. Check the size chart and try the pants on while sitting and standing if you can.
Should I take a size larger for a slim fit?
Not automatically. Fit and size differ per model; use the size chart and product advice before ordering.
