The verdict
Fit
Same mid-rise, hip-hugging flare that breaks high on the leg, but cut with a longer inseam than the regular; the line runs true to size, so the added length mainly addresses owners who found the standard version short.
Quality
Super-stretch, mid-weight denim that buyers call soft and comfortable; positive owner feedback across the line, on a small number of reviews.
Is the price fair?
A premium price for denim that is easiest to justify for tall shoppers who genuinely need the longer inseam, since standard lengths of this flare tend to sit short on them.
Best for
A taller wearer who wants a stretchy black flare long enough to wear with heels.
Care
Wash cold inside out and infrequently, then hang to dry to keep the black color and the stretch intact.

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.
