Ive Fooled Everyone Into Thinking These $24 Leggings Are Real Jeans

My name is Jamie, and I don’t wear jeans. If reading that puts you into a state of shock, I’m not surprised. My friends and family can’t believe it when I tell them I don’t own jeans — my wardrobe consists almost entirely of dresses, flowy tops, and leggings. Recently, though, I found an item that so closely resembles denim, you wouldn’t ever know the difference.

Curious? The Hue Essential Denim Leggings are — you guessed it — leggings that look like jeans. They’re designed in soft stretch cotton denim, so whether you spot me from far away or you’re right next to me, it looks like I’m wearing jeans. The secret lies in the fact that they pull right on thanks to a fully elastic — and fully comfortable — waistband, no zips, snaps, or buttons in sight. (Well, there is a button, actually, but it’s just for decoration.) They’re finished with faux front pockets, real back patch pockets, and a skinny leg with a 30-inch inseam, which perfectly fits my five-foot frame. I own them in the Deep Indigo wash (a rich dark blue), but they also come in black, white, and two other lighter shades of blue. 

Right now, you can snag the leggings on sale for as low as $24 depending on your wash and size preference.

These denim leggings, which come in sizes XS to 3X, really are the best of both worlds; I’m able to continue wearing leggings while everyone around me thinks I’m wearing jeans. They’re super stretchy, so they don’t squeeze even when I’m sitting down, and I can wear them to multiple course dinners without feeling like the button will pop off. I own them in XL, and while I will say they’re a bit looser than I’d like around my calves, it’s the right size for my curvy hips and waist. I’ve especially love wearing them lately with a slouchy tee and strappy heeled sandals.

I’m a longtime Hue fan — I’ve been wearing their black cotton leggings for over a decade — so it stands to reason that I’d fall head over heels for their denim version, too. With more than 4,700 five-star ratings, it appears I’m not alone. Shoppers said they “feel so comfortable around the waist,” “slip right on, and “fit like a dream.” Plus, many rave that they’re “just like regular skinny jeans.”
