Unpopular Opinion: I Like Jeans More Than Leggings
I used to think I was the only one on this world that has a mild dislike towards leggings. I think they’re great, don’t get me wrong. They’re perfect for travel, working out, and laying around the house. But that is just it… it stops there. Other than leather leggings, 9/10 times I prefer jeans. Shockingly, I’m not the only one! I posted this unpopular opinion on my newest Instagram picture and a few people agreed! But, if you’re not in the same boat, here is a pair of jeans that might change your mind…

Mott & Bow
Mott & Bow knows denim. For over 30 years, Alejandro Chahin has been working with his family’s denim manufacturing facility in Honduras. From a very young age, he mastered the process of jean making. Fast forward into his adult life, Alejandro realized the denim market was missing a brand that offered premium jeans at a fair price. In his family’s factory, he was able to employee artisans that have been honing their denim skills for years and eliminate the bulk of denim waist. When you try on your first pair of jeans, you’ll see the craftsmanship first hand.
Sizing Inclusivity
Mott & Bow offers waist size as small as 24 and up to 40 in select sizes. This is unheard of for a company that considers themselves a premium jean manufacturer. This is something I really admire about this company. Lets get more

They Know We Make Mistakes
If you’re like me, you’re pretty much in-between two sizes your entire life. Depending on the brand, I can be a size 28, 29, and even 30. Luckily for me, Mott & Bow understands the struggle women have to deal with each and every day. As a result, they send you two pairs of jeans in different sizes. That way you can try on your new beloved pair of jeans in the comfort of your own home. Just simply package the pair of jeans and they’re good to go.


My Opinion:
I absolutely love the High Rise Skinny Jeans in Bond. I’ve been looking for a pair of high-waisted, black jeans that don’t fade and I finally found a match made in heaven. They are made out of 63% Tencel; 30% Cotton; 5% Polyester; 2% Elastane so that they are stretchy and comfy. Multiple times I forgot that I was wearing jeans because they are so comfy. Plus, I love that the waistband hits right above my belly button so I can bend a million different ways without worrying my bum is showing.

I couldn’t agree more! It’s especially hard when companies put their sizes in “0, 2, 4, 6, 8, etc” Give me a waist and an inseam length and I’m good to go.

I agree, although I find leggings to be really comfy I find myself wearing jeans a lot more. This brand sounds great!

Yass! I like jeans more than leggings no matter how comfy and a bit carefree i feel about them. In jeans i just feel safe hahah i hope that makes sense.

I totally get that! Something about always being ready and presentable. Plus, once you find a comfy pair it’s hard to part with them!

Jeans are a staple of any smart girl’s wardrobe, for sure. 🙂

Personally, I never was crazy about jeans and wore them only for trips, in the airplane and so on! Even when I was a teenager! But recently I’m rediscovering the timelessness of jeans! ^_^ They are just so easy to wear and no need to iron!

Yes! I’m so happy to hear you’re falling in love with them. They’re such a easy staple that you can wear again and again.

I like to be an equal opportunity clothes lover…ha ha!! So I’d say I love them both. But how smart to send you two sizes. I always recommend that when ordering online.
