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).

truly so comfortable

I got my first pair of mother jeans about a month ago, and I already needed a second pair! These jeans do not stretch out throughout the day, but have a stretchy material that keep them comfortable and feels buttery on the skin. The perfect everyday denim! 5’4, 135lbs, size 28

SOOOO TIGHT

I ordered one size up per reviews and still could barely button these. They were so skin tight in a trashy way and the material is basically spandex. Definitely not something I would expect from a $250 pair of denim

Odd Sizing

I own another pair of this exact jean in a size 31. I ordered these in a 32 because I wanted another pair that just had some extra room. The 32 is noticeably smaller than the 31. Perhaps I got a pair that was just mis-marked? I will say, the wash on these is SO FLATTERING!! I am forever trying to minimize the look of my c-section pooch… these jeans are worth EVERY PENNY because they hold everything in but are magically still super comfy.

So comfy and trendy!

My stylist recommended these for some Jimmy Choo boots I received for Christmas. They are perfectly high waisted, right amount of stretch, love the step hem. I love this inky blue, my baby spit up on them while on the plane and you couldn't see it at all! I am usually a 25 in MOTHER (low rise skinny) but I got these in a 26 and couldn't be happier! Will look awesome with my new boots and a fun crop top!

love my mother jeans!

Love this style of mother jeans because they’re good for petites (I have a few) but they’re often the stretchiest style so I may suggest sizing down. The wash is a good medium wash and feels thinner. I’m 5’1 118 lbs and usually wear 27 in Mother’s but decided to get the 26 for a change in this style. I love that it has no distressing. The color is a little lighter then the picture shown.

Adorable!!

After ordering I got a little worried with sizing but these are an awesome fit with just the right amount of stretch in the fabric. So comfortable and perfect length. I am 5'4" 128 and most crop jeans fit too long on my leg but these were perfect! Definitely order! I am so happy with my purchase and have already worn several times! ❤️
