"I think that people have realized that if I had a pair of distressed jeans, they can't wear them more than once or twice - three times tops - in a year because it's gonna look repetitive,"
"In 2026, utility is still present, but it's much more refined and subtle,"
"Ripped jeans are just ripped jeans."
Bootcut jeans, metallic finishes, and leather pants will be popular in 2026. Properly tailored trousers and sturdy bootcut denim are recommended purchases. Distressed denim and ripped jeans are declining due to limited wearability and a desire for longer-lasting garments. Super-wide flares and extreme flare pants are losing steam as fitted bootcut and more tailored silhouettes gain favor. Overly tactical cargo pants with exaggerated pockets and straps are starting to feel dated. Utility styling remains but becomes more refined and subtle. Minimal-pocket cargo styles or simple sporty joggers offer versatile alternatives for contemporary styling.
