The verdict
Fit
The Chitch is a slim, mid-rise men's cut, tapered from the knee with more room than a true skinny — one reviewer calls it "a similar style without any of that restricting feeling." Sizing reports split: forum consensus says take your true size, while one retailer states it "fits small" and advises sizing up.
Quality
Chitch washes carry strong owner ratings — one colorway averaged "4.8/5 stars from 74 reviews" — and owners report the stretch denim lasting "a good 2-3 years of wear." The Brooklyn Repair's rips and repair topstitching are applied at the factory, so the wear pattern is fixed the day it arrives.
Is the price fair?
At $160 it undercuts the $195-$220 reviewers quote for other Chitch washes, and multi-year owner reports support the spend if pre-distressed denim is what you actually want.
Best for
Someone after a slim tapered jean with heavy ready-made distressing who would rather pay designer-denim prices than break in a plain pair.
Care
Wash cold and inside out, rarely, and hang dry — machine heat and agitation will pull at the repaired deconstructions and aged seams.

What owners report about Ksubi jeans
Owners report thick, rigid denim with little to no give — several rental-service reviewers note there is no stretch at all, while one reported a pair stretching about two sizes over a day, so experiences vary by style. The slim cuts are made for narrow frames, and curvier owners frequently find them restrictive or hard to sit in at their usual size. Long-term owners report pairs lasting a few years and holding their shape.
- Strengths
- Owners praise the thick, sturdy denim and report pairs lasting a good 2-3 years of wear while keeping their shape.
- Watch out for
- The recurring complaints are the rigid, no-give fabric and the narrow cut — restrictive when sitting, a poor match for curvier shapes, and waists that run small on several styles.
- Sizing
- Rental-service owners most often report the jeans running small, especially in the waist, and advise sizing up, while other reviewers call the slim cuts true to size — check per style.
