Women's Western Jeans Go Mainstream

Catherine Lee

What makes women's western jeans "women's western jeans"? Of
course there's the fact that most of them have the unmistakable
flair leg and "boot cut" - making them wearable with your
favorite pair of cowgirl boots. Lots of western jean
manufacturers, such as Rocky Mountain Jeans also show a slim
fit, straight leg jean, or "slim" jeans at they call them. Then
of course there's the ornamentation on some of them. Some
western jeans can be very fancy. They are embellished with
floral designs on the leg below the knee, some have patches and
embroidery on the back pockets. Still other western jeans are
studded with varying designs of rhinestones and faux turquoise
and some have peek-a-boo cut out designs.

Western jeans have followed the low rise trend, with some brands
such as Cruel Girl jeans having what they call their "Legacy"
super low rise jeans. Some have button fly closures. Wrangler, a
jean maker for almost sixty years now is still big in western
wear and they are also following trends with low rise and button
fly women's western jeans.

Western jeans come in all types of denim washes, from dark blue
denim to faded stonewash and everything in between. Prefer
robin's egg blue or electric pink? You'll find them too. Going
to a special event or want a dressier jean? How about black.
Some western jean manufacturers such as Lawman's are also making
jeans in stretch material - a comfortable blessing for most
women.

So, it seems that western jeans come in such as array of styles,
colors, designs and fabrics that you can find just about any
type of jean you're looking for.

What makes western jeans "western jeans" in my mind is the
shirt, belt, shoes and other "accessories", along with the state
of mind that a women picks to go with them. When a woman pairs
her jeans with pink crocodile Ariat slip ons or Justin Caliente
boots in red she's saying "these are western jeans." When she
chooses a decidedly country shirt, one with embroidery and a
vintage yolk, she's saying "these are western jeans."

When she pairs those jeans with a pair of open toe wedges or a
pair of tri color leather platform oxfords, a flimsy mesh tunic,
a silk v neck camisole with spaghetti straps or a charmeuse wrap
top she's taking western jeans to a whole new level.
