Straight or tapered for black jeans?
Looking to pick up a pair of black jeans since they seem to be a versatile piece, but I can't decide between straight or tapered.
Both my other jeans are in this same cut since I've found that it works really well for me:

But I was interested in adding a pair of straight cut jeans as well:

Should I make my black pair straight fit or pick up a straight fit blue or other pair later on?

Straight. I don't think there's particularly any reason to get tapered jeans right now though.
Ah okay, is straight cut more versatile?
Yes
Easy guy has a really aggressive taper that doesn't look good, imo. I'd go straight unless your thighs are so massive that straight cuts don't fit in the top block. And even then I wouldn't go easy guy.
Got the straight cut, thanks guys
The true guy has extra room up top like the easy guys so it felt pretty comfortable
Was surprised how good the straight cut looked, feels like I've been missing out all this time
