Taylor Relaxed Barrel High Rise 28" Jeans | Poolside Aura
The verdict
Fit
High-rise relaxed barrel cut, 28" inseam (petite/cropped). Bestseller and multi-variant suggest consistent fit. Expect substantial comfort and volume through the hip and thigh.
Quality
Bestseller status and multiple variants confidence in durability. The relaxed barrel cut is forgiving on wear; expect good shape retention.
Price check
At $249 USD, the highest price for a non-tech silhouette in this batch. DL1961's reputation justifies part of it, but you're also paying a brand premium for the beloved cut.
Best for
Petite/cropped-length wearers who prioritize comfort and relaxed fit, and trust DL1961's bestselling barrel cut.
Care
Wash cold, lay flat or hang to dry to maintain the relaxed barrel shape and prevent stretching.

What owners report about DL1961 jeans
Owners report the line's defining trait is its stretch fabric: reviewers say the jeans are very comfortable, do not bag out, and return to shape after washing — one long-term wearer said hers fit like new after every wash. Aggregated customer feedback is more mixed on sizing, splitting between snug and too big depending on style. Customer reviews on Trustpilot include a minority reporting early failures — fabric splitting and belt loops ripping within a few months — so durability reports are not uniform.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently praise the stretch fabric's comfort and shape retention — it stretches with the body without bagging out or losing shape between washes.
- Watch out for
- A minority of customer reviews report premature failures — fabric splits and ripped belt loops within months — and sizing feedback is inconsistent across styles.
- Sizing
- Mixed: one denim reviewer found them running slightly big and quite snug at the same waist size, while aggregated customer feedback splits between snug and too large — check the per-style fit notes before ordering.
