The verdict
Fit
High-rise with a relaxed straight leg that hits at the ankle; reviewers report it runs true to size but the heavy stretch can make the waist feel a touch loose, so those between sizes should size down.
Quality
Owners call the super-stretch denim soft and comfortable with good recovery, and rate the overall make highly across a solid review count.
Is the price fair?
At USD 103 it is mid-premium for the category, and the 4.7-star owner rating plus consistent comfort praise make it a fair price for a stretch straight jean.
Best for
Someone who wants an all-day-comfortable high-rise straight jean with plenty of give.
Care
Wash cold inside out and avoid high-heat drying so the stretch recovery holds over time.

What owners report about Frame jeans
Owners report Frame's stretch-blend denim is soft with enough weight to still feel like real jeans, and that the cuts fit close through the seat and thigh without a baggy crotch. The recurring caution is stretch behavior: the denim opens up over multiple wears, with extra room developing at the waistband, and one reviewer of a rigid cotton cut deliberately sized down to compensate. Owners also flag the price — reviewers cite Los Angeles manufacturing for retail prices averaging around $230 — and one long-term owner recommends buying the line secondhand for value.
- Strengths
- Reviewers praise the soft, stretchy denim that holds a close, flattering fit — one calls the fabric stretchy but still sturdy, with no bagging complaints in normal wear.
- Watch out for
- The denim stretches out with wear — waistbands loosen over multiple wears — and one reviewer notes elastane-blend jeans will not wear as long as rigid 100% cotton denim.
- Sizing
- Reports conflict by cut: one reviewer calls Frame true to size, another sizes up in the skinny cuts because Frame runs slightly small, and a reviewer of the rigid Le Jane sized down because the denim naturally stretches after multiple wears.
