Looking for a new flattering denim cut? Since 2015 crop kick flare jeans have established themselves as a must-have denim style. 

The crop kick flare has a high-waisted fit and slightly cropped hem, fitting close to the body through the knee into a subtle flared leg. This style is perfect for showing off your footwear or summer sandals, and are a fantastic alternative to skinny jeans (which according to Gen Z we can’t be caught dead in right now.) What’s more is they offer an indubitably more flattering fit than a baggy trouser, while still maintaining that relaxed feel.
