Don’t worry about the word “skinny” in the description… it just means slim-fitting in this case. If you’re not into the skinny (as in skin-tight) jean trend, you might want to give these jeans a try. They’re somewhere in between skinny jeans and your regular bootcut.

At first I thought the white spots in this picture were specks of dust floating around in front of the camera. Turns out they are intentional bleach stains! Way cooler than a bad camera-man job!

There is a time for dark wash jeans with no holes or stains. But there is also a time for dark wash jeans with bleach stains. Scenario #1 where you need bleach stains on your jeans: you’ve volunteered for Habitat for Humanity but you don’t want to look out of place with normal jeans that are not already covered in paint. Enter jeans with bleach stains that also look like paint droplets! Scenario #2: You really like it when your clothes look like you accidentally poured bleach into the wash last time you did laundry, but you don’t actually like to do the laundry. These jeans give you that look and you don’t even have to turn the washing machine on! Oh yeah, there is also Scenario #3: Royal Underground makes awesome jeans with really cool back pockets and it’s the hippest thing right now to wear jeans with bleach stains on them!!!

(Note: While slight sarcasm may have been used in the first two scenarios, Scenario #3 is a fact, and also the reason why you should totally buy these jeans.)

Some advice to the men out there: buy yourself a good pair of jeans. Your old Levi’s won’t make the cut anymore. A pair like these Rock & Republic jeans DO make the cut! They’ve got that nicely distressed, but not too distressed look, a dark wash, straight and slightly baggy leg, and they look worn in to perfection. They are 90% cotton and 2% spandex. The spandex adds a tiny bit of a stretch, which makes them super comfortable. Other features include a button closure, logo at back, slanted back pockets, and small studs for a classic denim look.

These are available in sizes 34, 36 & 38.

The original price was $195. They’re marked down to $138, which is a great price considering good denim doesn’t go on sale very often.
