Bootcut jeans: from cowboy classic to modern fashion trend

Bootcut jeans are no longer just popular among cowboys. Since the 1990s and 2000s, the cool jeans fit has also found its place in the fashion world outside the Wild West. After disappearing from fashion for a while, Bootcut jeans have made a strong comeback in recent years, benefiting from the trend for wide-leg pants and jeans. However, not all flared legs are the same - it is important to distinguish between the different leg shapes:

The Bootcut is characterized by a narrow cut at the thigh, which remains close-fitting up to the knee. From the knee, the leg then widens subtly down to the foot. Compared to the flared jeans from the 1960s and 1970s or today'sflared jeans, which are much more flared, the Bootcut is more discreet and not excessively wide.

Bootcut for Women: the perfect cut for every figure

The fit of the Bootcut jeans is extremely figure-friendly and can be worn by almost anyone. The cut, which widens towards the bottom, visually lengthens and slims the legs. They also conceal wide hips and thick calves.

The leg length can also be visually stretched by choosing the waistband height. Smaller women in particular benefit from high-waist styles, which lengthen the legs and do not visually compress the silhouette of the body. Taller women can also easily opt for low-rise or mid-waist styles.

Styling tips for Bootcut pants

Contrary to what the name might suggest, Bootcut jeans are not just perfect with boots. They go just as well with trendy sneakers, ankle boots - with or without heels - and even elegant high heels.

For the office, we recommend a Bootcut with a higher waistband in more muted or darker colors such as dark blue, black or grey. Combined with a blouse and pumps or ankle boots, they create a stylish and professional outfit.

For a relaxed shopping trip or a meeting in a café, lighter washes and fashionable details such as appliqués or "destroyed" details are suitable, giving the classic Bootcut jeans that certain something. Combined with a loose T-shirt or knitted sweater, they create a comfortable and casual look.

Bootcut Jeans Men

The 13MWZ (abbreviation for "Mens Western Zipper") by Wrangler is a true icon among Men Bootcut jeans. Since 1947, they have been the preferred choice for cowboys and rodeo riders of the American West. And for good reason: the robust material made from strong cotton is extremely durable and hard-wearing. The cut offers sufficient freedom of movement when riding or doing physical work and ensures that the jeans fit perfectly over boots. Optionally, the boots can also be worn over the Bootcut .

From cowboy favorite to modern all-rounder

Bootcut jeans have long since found their place in the fashion world, not only in the Wild West, but also in the hearts of many fashion lovers. They are versatile, figure-flattering and offer numerous styling options for Women and Men. Their comeback shows that classics never really go out of fashion, but always set new accents. Anyone who loves a subtle yet eye-catching look will continue to enjoy Bootcut jeans.
