Jeans are always worth the investment, but what if they don’t have to be one? With such a saturated denim market, it can be difficult to narrow down pairs that are worth it. But if you grab a couple of affordable pairs from trusted retailers, you’re guaranteed to find your holy-grail denim. There are so many trending styles currently for denim, including baggy jeans, straight-leg jeans, trouser jeans, and more. My ideal formula is to pick up a mix of classic pairs and trendy pairs to balance your wardrobe. You may end up wearing a trend-forward pair as your go-to for years to come. But to make this possible, price point is extremely important. It’s difficult to spend high on something that is more of a fad, so the 46 pairs of jeans below are all under $100. Shop around and find your new favorite pair(s).
