The verdict
Fit
Same high-rise wide-leg cut as the lighter wash, rated true to size but with enough stretch that one owner advised to "size down one from normal size." The long inseam flatters taller wearers, with a 5'9" reviewer reporting a good length.
Quality
Owners praise the weight, stretch and pocket detailing, calling the denim soft and shape-holding; the dark rinse is called out as easy to wear from fall into winter. All reviews of this style so far recommend it.
Is the price fair?
At $288 it is a premium buy; the dark wash adds year-round versatility that helps justify the cost, but it remains a splurge that only pays off for buyers who want this exact wide-leg stretch silhouette.
Best for
A taller shopper after a dark, dress-up-or-down wide-leg jean with strong stretch for all-day comfort.
Care
Wash cold and dry flat to keep the dark rinse from fading and to preserve the length and stretch.

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.
