The verdict
Fit
It is a high-rise, looser-fitting wide leg cropped above the ankle; the silhouette is stretchy and molds to the body, but sizing is inconsistent across washes, with one retailer's stylist noting fit "runs small at the crotch" and an inseam that "may hit at or above the ankle."
Quality
The frayed raw cuff plus faded, whiskered detailing define this variant, and owners of the line describe the denim as notably soft and stretchy rather than rigid.
Is the price fair?
At USD 278 it is a premium denim purchase, and the soft super-stretch fabric and finished raw-hem detailing are what reviewers point to as justifying the cost.
Best for
Someone after a lighter, worn-in cropped wide-leg jean with a casual frayed hem who is willing to try a size for hip fit.
Care
Machine wash inside out and pre-wash before hemming, since minor shrinkage can occur and the raw cuff is designed to fray gradually.

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.
