MOTHER

Founded in 2010 by premium-denim industry pros Lela Becker and Tim Kaeding, MOTHER specializes in collections that present a juxtaposition of hard and soft. The brand evokes teenage rebellion, unconditional love and hilarious insult all at the same time (the company's name is a play on the duality of the word "mother," which can be nurturing or a cuss).

Runs a little small

I really wanted to like these Mother pants—this was my first petite purchase from the brand. I typically wear a 27 regular. Unfortunately they just didn’t flatter my body and felt a little too tight overall. I’m returning Them.

favorite Mothers

Great spring to summer jeans- the wash is great, they hit right at the ankle (5’4 petite) so they look great with sandals and ballet flats. They are a stiffer denim and run a little smaller so I sized up and they are perfect.
