These are the jeans you need right now. High-waisted with a roomy barrel leg. It took five rounds of fittings to perfect this of-the-moment silhouette. With just enough volume that tapers at the ankle, they're made from a structured (but still stretchy) denim that holds its shape. We designed these to be styled two ways—play with sizing to find your favorite fit. Choose your true size if you’re into the oversize look, and size down if you want these jeans to feel fitted through the hips.

More stretch than anticipated
"These are jeans with lots of stretch in the material, though they look to be classic denim. The color is also nice. I first bought them in 22 and exchanged for a size 20. However, even with a smaller size they still felt too big. For reference, i'm 5'4'' and my front seam measures at about 11in and the pants front seam are 14in, so its already more than I need. This combined with the stretch allowed in the pants, it usually looks like i'm swimming in them/they're sagging by midday. Still, i like the pants, and plan to purchase them in an 18 when they are on sale."
One of my favorite pairs of jeans
"I love these jeans. They’re the only barrel leg jeans that’s flattering on me, and they’re so comfortable. Find the denim in these seem a bit thicker compared to the denim in other US jeans I’ve purchased. I’d say they run a little large so size down from your usual US size. I’ve also changed sizes since I purchased them and I’m so happy they were FitLiberty eligible. I want a pair in every color and I hope they make more!"
Fantastic cut for big thighs!
"I love the fit on these! If you have big thighs and a large butt, these are a fantastic option for something that has enough rise to cover without being super high and roomy thighs/crotch area. I’m obsessed and own 3 pairs. They are a nice dark blue, not quite as deep a color as the indigo selvedge, maybe US will consider making these in that denim? Please?!!"
Barrel jeans
"These jeans are wonderful. Love the wash/color, fit, and large pockets. The barrel style is easy to wear and the length is perfect. I sized down to a 14 from my normal 16 and they fit well. Glad I bought them!"
Good jeans
"Small pockets! Great cut. Cute on. Would buy again."
Fun styling, amazing fit!
"I am obsessed with the fit of the Lou Barrel jeans. They are great for my big thighs and large high butt combo. I don’t like tight jeans but also don’t like wide leg, so these hit my sweet spot! Colorway is cute with little frayed bits and a nice wear pattern."
Fun trying another shape jean
"I've been waiting to try these and I'm glad I did. It was hard to decide on size because they are labeled as generous fit to size down etc. I did size down from a S to XS and they are tighter than a thought they would be but not uncomfortable. While I appreciate how they show different model sizes and what size they wear I still struggle with translating that to myself. Especially being shorter and just basic proportion differences. But I have many pairs and styles of US denim and have loved them all. To excited to have these in the rotation."
My go-to pants for air travel
"These jeans are amazing. The denim is robust but soft, roomy, and stretchy enough to wear on a 6 hour flight in economy class. The pockets are wide and deep and hold a big iPhone with no problem at all. The shape of the jeans is especially good for those of us with relatively small waists compared to hips and thighs. Even in warm weather, the silhouette of the jeans is roomy enough that I don't feel too hot in them, Really good."
My 2nd pair i can’t
"My 2nd pair i can’t get enough — these are fab!"
