So when I found that one of Who What Wear’s most trusted arbiter of vintage wardrobe investments, our columnist Monik, suggested Zara’s Marine Jeans, I jumped on it. I’ve noticed these a few times on the Zara site and think this cut looks timeless, flattering, and easy to wear. I like that they’re neat enough to fit around the waist and hips but have a wide tube cut that gives it a slightly more modern feel. I tried a pair in early fall as part of who wears what?‘S Great try and I love the stretchy and styled jeans but the size (which is my usual) feels a bit tight.
After a few months and my jeans desperation exploded, I ordered two pairs of Zara’s Marine Jeans in the larger size (if you have thicker thighs like I do, I recommend you should) and voilá, I kept both pairs. I usually wear size 12 trousers and size 29 or 30 jeans depending on the brand; Zara’s size 14 in the Marine Jean cut is just right. However, this means that the size on these jeans is more limited than the ideal size I would like to see.
