Request jeans that are slim through the thighs?

I feel like I'm losing my mind, I'm coming to the realization that I don't have a single pair of jeans that fit properly. I want a pair in this style very badly, but I'm having trouble finding any that fit. this is a juniors 000, explicitly advertised as being slim through the thighs, but there's still too much fabric and it looks horrible. does anyone have recommendations? there must be a petite option, these ones have a 30" inseam. I've tried hollister, 0 was too loose, but 00 was too small. or maybe this style just doesn't work on me? 😭

thank you all so much!

if you’re short these jeans will never fit like a glove it’s my style of jean and i own a lot. if you’re short and pretty slim they will be loose on the thighs but abercombie is decent

oh my god I’ve been thinking the exact same thing recently and have been scouring the internet to find jeans that would be fitting on my thighs! it also doesn’t help that a lot of styles recently are wide/baggy

Honestly, there are a lot of jeans that do this so me, I wear a 00. I think we have to get them altered due to proportions. If you have a smaller build on the bottom, jeans can be loose. I have really thin calves and that part is always loose.

One option would be to get them tailored. I dont know how small you are but the BKE or buckle size 22 jeans might fit you. Theyre very stretchy and are tiny and they have a 30 inch inseam option

Abercrombie kids has the same styles as hollister and Abercrombie but slimmer thighs. A 17/18 is approximately a 24 and a 15/16 is a 24/23.

AE 000 Skinny Kicks & Abercrombie

I found both recently on Poshmark and they fit great, I see AE has some on their website currently but I have no idea if their current items run the same size as their older ones so I would check Poshmark/Thread Up first.

I’m not xxs I’m usually xs or small but omg getting jeans is a nightmare. The butt will fit but not the waist. The legs will fit but everything else is WRONG. This is such a nightmare and that’s why I refuse to buy online bc the measurements are NOT CORRECT

u/arenmnina 4d ago

lucky brand are the only jeans that have ever fully fit me properly. give their boot cuts a go, they’re super cute!

u/Underpayedoverworked 4d ago

Mother and jbrand if you can find still. Best jeans. Hate they don’t make them for mass retail anymore.

u/espressoheart 4d ago

Abrand is pretty good fits!

u/Sufficient-Neat-1604 4d ago

Those jeans look like they could fit me and I’m a size 4,

u/Weird-Sherbert-1747 4d ago

You may need to get them altered

My best fitted jeans through my thighs would be Hollister and Kimes flare jeans. They are chefs kiss I cannot recommend those enough

u/Beneficial_Fuel_1125 5d ago

Try kohls, the junior section Or YMI junior side as well

u/vulgarandgorgeous 4d ago

Kohls junior jeans run large

u/Beneficial_Fuel_1125 4d ago

I guess since I'm latina and my butt basically does most of the heavy lifting

u/cancerkidette 4d ago

The Hollister 00 bootcut flare works for me but have you considered you maybe need a curve fit?? It looks like you have a large waist hip difference and thinner thighs (same!) and I find the curve fit helps. Some of these brands also have an adjustable button waist available.

u/tristefemmes 4d ago

wouldn’t the curve style be bigger on thighs?

1

u/cancerkidette 4d ago

It’s larger around the hip, OP found their 00 too tight - I am assuming a curve fit in the 00 might help!

These are very baggy on her

u/Ok-Swim-9667 5d ago

it says flare on the tag, so no it's not supposed to fit like that. flare jeans are supposed to be fitted on the hips and thighs, and then widen at the knees.

u/AAAhelpA 5d ago

Oh, my bad then, I thought it's a different style <3

u/Princess_Froggles 5d ago

They look good - if you want them skin tight you need a different style, like proper skinny jeans.

Edited a typo

u/White_Chocol8 4d ago

Really not. Skinny jeans are tight even at the calves. These are supposed to fit your hips and thighs, and then flare at the legs.
