JEANS 101: KNOW YOUR FITS
We all need a staple pair of denim jeans… but it can sometimes be hard to find the pair that’s right for you. Check out our fit guide below and find a pair that works, day in, day out.
SLIM JEANS
A modern update on the classic… The new ‘can’t-live-without’ staple slim jean gives a tailored fit but never compromises on comfort or style.
With a slimmer leg than a straight fit jean, this pair gives you a slightly smarter, more tailored look. Ideal for nights out or days in the office. Pair with your favourite shirt for a day-to-night ‘fit. Slim jeans are close fitted and a good alternative to formal trousers, especially in darker washes.
TAPERED JEANS
A slimmer leg opening with a roomier seat and thigh like the straight cut. It’s the best of both worlds…
Tapered jeans give you all the style of the slim jean, but with a more comfortable fit. Ideal for more athletic frames. These jeans are great for the office or occasions where you’ll be sitting down for longer periods, as the roomier seat makes for a more comfortable position on the waist, especially for big and tall frames. Pair with your fave brogues for a refreshed tailored look.
BOOTCUT JEANS
Like a straight jean with a wider opening from the knee down. The bootcut jean is easy-to-wear and perfect for every shape.
With the wide leg opening, this pair does what it says on the tin. Perfect styled with your favourite boots for an off-duty casual look. The wider leg makes walking for long periods a breeze and is comfortable, ideal for big and tall frames.

LOOSE JEANS

The ultimate weekend jean – these are the pair that no guy should be without. The wide leg gives way to ultimate comfort and makes these the perfect jean for a low-key weekend. Pair with a jumper or hoodie for an off-duty look, perfect for every day of the week.

STRAIGHT LEG JEANS
A true classic: fitting straight from thigh to ankle. The style that never ages, ideal for any build and frame.
These jeans combine the classic look of a slim but with the ultimate comfort in the leg, thighs and waist. Perfect for longer days in the office at your desk. Pair with a smart shirt and some brogues for a casual office look. Or go with a pair of trainers for weekend vibes.

SKINNY JEANS
Our skinniest fit for a sleek look. The pair that fits like a glove from the waist to the ankle. From the bar to the office, skinny jeans always have a place in our wardrobe.
Skinny jeans are the ultimate must-have. This style has been a staple in our wardrobes for years, and it isn’t going anywhere. Skinny jeans are versatile enough for the office, daywear to nights out and date night looks. There’s a style of skinny to suit everyone. As the name suggests, skinny jeans are best suited to those with a slimmer frame… But anyone can pull off a pair of skinnies in the right wash.

RELAXED JEANS
Like a loose fit but with a bit more structure through the leg. These are the roomier versions of the slim jean.
Relaxed jeans give a laid-back look to any ‘fit. From weekend walks to mid-week meals, these jeans are versatile enough for any day of the week, and virtually any outfit. Ideal for big and tall, athletic and bigger frames, these are the jeans that suit most frames, whilst providing maximum comfort.
STRETCH JEANS
Did someone say COMFORT? Stretch jeans, with their high elasticity, give a durable, comfortable look all year round.
A perfect fit for any frame… sounds too good to be true, right? Stretch jeans give a slim, tailored and sophisticated look due to the stretch of the fabric. These are the jeans for you if you want versatility and durability. From work to play, these jeans look good with any ‘fit, whatever the occasion.

NOTES FROM THE TEAM
Jacamo Head of Buying
"This month sees the launch of our new denim collection. With improved fits (the best we've ever had!), perfect for whatever your size, and updated washes made with more sustainable BCI cotton* and from recycled post-consumer waste such as plastic bottles, we’ve brought together the best in denim.
After years of skinny and slim-focused fits, we’re seeing a resurgence in the loose-fit look. Plus, with updated washes, there’s even more to shout about. Mid-wash denim is perfect for this time of year. And when the weather starts to improve, lighter washes are a great alternative. Our denim is a true classic now with a standard price across all fits, starting at just £28."

We have revised and improved each style to offer the best fitting jean no matter his size or shape, with contemporary new washes in stretch sustainable denim. The essential item in his wardrobe that combines comfort with practicality.”
FAQs
What style of jeans are popular for men in 2025?
Denim trends are always shifting, but the classics still have their place in our line-up - your trusty straight legs and skinny fits aren’t going anywhere. Vintage silhouettes like wide-leg are back too. The key is finding a pair that suits your taste and your personal style. Be open to trying new cuts or washes in ‘24 to upgrade your look. We’re not saying go full 70s flares (unless you really want to)… Just be open to branching out from your denim comfort zone. In 2025 there are no rules. The trend this year is all about embracing individuality. So, find that pair that suits you to a T.
What jeans look best on my body type?
It can be hard to find that pair that looks good on you, no matter your shape or build. That’s why we’ve outlined the key fits above and done the hard work for you! But as a guide, we reckon that bootcut, straight or relaxed fit jeans are the best for bigger frames and athletic builds. Whereas slim fits or skinny are ideal for slender body types. Or maybe you’re just looking for an everyday pair? Loose-fit jeans are ideal for a laid-back look, with comfort at the forefront of every ‘fit.
How do I find jeans that fit me right?
It can be hard to know how your jeans should fit you, but fear not – we have the answer. Your ideal pair should sit just on the waist and should allow you to comfortably stick two fingers in-between you and the waistband. This leaves enough room for you to sit and move without feeling restricted. You shouldn’t need a belt to keep your jeans in place.
Make sure to check out the rise. You shouldn’t feel restricted, just like the waistband, and you also should be able to sit and stand comfortably in your denim… And shouldn’t have to be pulling them up constantly. Finding the right fit for your frame is key to having a good-looking pair of denim jeans.
You can check out individual size measurements using our sizing charts, including charts for all of our branded denim fits.
What’s the difference between rise and inseam?
Jeans rise refers to the distance between the crotch seam in the middle of the legs on a pair of trousers, right up to the waistband usually defined as low, mid and high-rise. Choosing jeans which are the right rise to match your taste will ensure that your look is consistent, and your confidence is through the roof. This is important to take into consideration as it can change the tone of an outfit, and more importantly your entire image. The inseam is the seam that runs from the crotch to the hem (at the bottom of the jeans) on your inside leg. This is important to find the exact length that will have your jeans sitting just right!
