The verdict
Fit
It is a high rise with a straight leg that hits at the ankle (11-inch front rise, 28-inch inseam in Regular, with Pixie and Long lengths offered). Retailer stylists call it true to size, though the ultra-stretch denim can read slightly bigger at the waist, so some owners size down.
Quality
The line uses a super-stretch cotton-lyocell blend (79% cotton/15% lyocell/4% elasterell-p/2% elastane) that Frame describes as having superior recovery; owner feedback centers on comfort and a body-contouring feel rather than reported durability problems.
Is the price fair?
At $194 (marked down from $278) it sits in premium-denim territory; the price is defensible for shoppers who value the stretch-recovery blend and multiple inseam lengths, less so for anyone wanting a rigid, structured jean.
Best for
A shopper who wants a stretchy, comfort-forward high-rise straight in a dark wash and doesn't mind a close, contoured fit.
Care
Machine wash cold and hang or lay flat to dry to preserve the stretch recovery in the denim.

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.
