Bootcut Denim Leggings? Yay or Nay?

by grechen on October 13, 2010 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

I’m going to refrain from calling them jeggings, out of principle, but essentially that’s what these Goldsign denim leggings ARE. But they’re not skinny – they’re bootcut – which is an interesting twist. I think they’re great; partly because Goldsign is still my favorite denim brand (Adriano REALLY knows how to fit the curvy girl), but they’re also a welcome diversion from the skinny denim legging…What do you think?

So basically these are jeans for people who are too lazy to use a zipper and a button? I don’t get it.

but leggings are supposed to be tight all the way to the bottom. This is not a legging. This is a maternity jean for people who aren’t pregnant.

maybe leggings are just pull-on pants? do they have to be skinny?
LOL – you kill me. you’re right, they’re not really leggings, they’re just bootcut jeans with an elastic waist. good for thanksgiving, no?

thank you for not using the word “jeggings”

I think the idea of bootcut is nice in theory but it just looks all bunchy and baggy in that picture. I for one like elastic waists but I guess the line has to be drawn somewhere… :)

I guess I always think of Jeggings (sorry @Joanna!) as something to be worn tucked into boots, thus the skinny leg. But I think if I were going for bootcut, I’d just go with regular ol’ jeans with a bit of stretch. These don’t make sense to me.

I like the resurgence of leggings, and in some cases, even jeggings. But THIS pair…not a good look. I’m just saying :o
