What are your thoughts on barrel jeans?
Hey y'all, as a general discussion, what are your opinions on barrel jeans?
I've seen some black ones on clearance in the women's aisle of my local high street store, but didn't have time to try them on. I'm missing some black jeans anyway, and I feel like the loose silhouette could be built upon rather nicely.
I know they've been a big trend for women, but don't think I've seen them mentioned nearly as much for men.

Very good.
Do you own any? I'm a little curious as to how the "barrel" shape actually looks throughout the day
They can be good. I think they’re best when the length is just right, can become a bit too cropped if you’re not careful
If the fabric is right they should drape properly throughout the day
Skeptical of high street fabric quality lol tbqh
There are a lot of folks here who have some (including me), they can be cool but agree with heckle
But I'm broke and the price is right kinda thing so 🤷♂️
I'm kinda curious in a way what I'd wear with them. For some reason my mind is immediately going to my old Uniqlo turtleneck thermal top
Some colors of these are popular and they are generally barrelish shaped
The uniqlo u fit chino pants are the same basic cut as the twisted leg but in a chino twill without the twisted seam
I know some folks here have Abercrombie ones that look cool
LEMAIRE
Denim Indigo Twisted Belted Pants
Discover the Belted Pants by LEMAIRE, a revisited unisex classic. Made of thick indigo denim, its twisted cut brings a unique elegance.
I like those, pretty!
Do you guys see the vision paired with something like this?
Not sure that's the exact model I've got but it's pretty close.
Should be fine
I might like it slightly more cropped with a bit more room but not bad. I usually only wear sweaters that thin for layering but that's more personal preference
Oh, it's not a sweater, It's like a long-sleeve tee
Or at least the one I have is
Heattech stuff
I love barrel jeans -- I think they add a nice sense of movement to the fit
stretchy and form-fitting
Ooh I hadn't considered movement
Do they swish?
oh no i meant when you're standing still they just look curved
for an extreme example look at these
though i wouldn't rec these as your starter set of barrels
Ah sorry English is not my first language
np i wasn't clear
just makes the outfit look more dynamic to my eyes
I see what you mean though, they would make a more dynamic silhouette
Jinx!
Lol
Anyway, I'm thinking loose harem pant type shape with the pants matched with tighter form fitting up top could look interesting
Harem pant jeans is where my brain goes with them loool
i got these more subtle barrel (ish) in the ssense sale last year and they quickly became my fave pants
though i never tuck anything into my pants so i just do loose/loose
Oh that's a gorgeous shape yeah
Ye I agree they're more "elevated" or whatever than just straight wide leg jeans in a way people who don't know the difference would be like why do that guy's jeans look better than other wide leg jeans
Ended up buying the jeans, and I was unprepared for how outrageously comfy these things are.
Like, they look good, sure, but they're so roomy, it's amazing, I love them
Especially considering how ungodly cheap I got them
Looks good 👍
Thank you! I think so too
It's kinda funny styling these, found zero male inspiration online.
Like, not very little, actually zero.
Don't really get what it is about that cut that is apparently so feminine-coded
As mentioned from a scroll through highlights I reckon you could swap those jeans into any fits like these

Wow the search implementation on mobile for that is horrible, here they are as direct pics lol
Ah, cheers, thanks a bunch!
Some good stuff there for sure!
I fuck with that trenchcoat look tbh
And the leather jacket take on it looks sweet as well but that might be 40% the 'stache.
Trenchcoat look is great for sure! Can search:
in: waywt from:mooses_for more similar!
I need a trenchcoat tbh
Or a long coat at all
I like my current coat, but it doesn't reach below the knee and that's goals tbh
Looks p good with the sweater out and about tho. Feels a bit grayscale almost lol
