Conventional denim production is dirty business and we’re on a mission to clean it up. Here's how we're doing it differently—and why that matters for you.
Better denim starts with better materials. We prioritize certified organic and regenerative cotton — a tiny share of the world's supply — grown with less water and healthier soil practices. That same intention carries through to production: state-of-the-art factories that recycle up to 98% of their water, using ozone washing, air drying, and renewable energy to reduce water and energy use by design.
We work with mills and wash houses that have verifiably reduced chemical use, moving away from harmful treatments common in conventional denim. Our partners are independently tested against leading safer chemistry standards like bluesign, OEKO-TEX Standard 100, and ZDHC — not self-reported claims. Fewer chemicals in your jeans, safer conditions for the people who make them, and lower environmental impact.
We don't guess at environmental impact — we verify it. Using Jeanologia's EIM, the industry benchmark standard for environmental denim wash impact, 96% of our washes score low to medium — meaning significantly less water, energy, and chemicals than conventional denim.
Our denim fabric is rigorously third-party tested multiple times from development through pre-production — verifying durability, consistency, and performance across fabric weight, tear strength, and color fastness. The result: denim built to get better with age, with more years in your wardrobe and fewer replacements.

The Way-High® Hourglass Jean is praised for its high rise and flattering fit, with customers appreciating its quality and the way it enhances the appearance of the butt and legs. However, opinions vary on the length, gap, waist, and size, with some finding these aspects inconsistent or not perfect.

"Love these. Sturdy denim that will last. More stylish cut than the cheeky. So comfortable, don't ride up like other curvy lines. Go with everything. Slightly more snug than I was expected but not uncomfortable so. I'm currently at the larger side of my average range so I'm sure it'll be fine. Please keep making the hourglass like and add more wide/barrel shapes!! They are a fit and quality that is SO hard to find."
"Love these jeans, I find it so hard to find jeans that fit my proportions without the waist gap. I have a 31” waist and 42” hips and I bought a size 29 as I have this size in some other styles. They’re a smidge too small (look great on but not so comfy for sitting) and next time perhaps I’ll try a size 30 in this style."
"as always, beautiful quality. Soft, strong fabric, and well made. However, this wash doesn't fit me well. It stretches out after about an hour of wear, and kind of balloons around my hips. I love the hourglass jeans passionately and never want them to go away, but this is my first time with this wash and it feels frumpy compared to the others I have."
"Fits so well for someone with wider hips and thicker thighs. Very comfortable. Recommended to size up and very grateful I listened. Would recommend getting the longer length so that the hem hits your ankles properly and doesn't rise up a fair bit when you sit. I would've gotten the longer length since I'm 177cm but it wasn't available. 75cm waist 103cm hips Got a size 30"
"I have been buying the way high hour glass jean for a while, but always in the washed black/grey wash. These were a first for me and they fit me even better than the others. I have a high rise, in addition to a ridiculous hip/waist ratio, and these give me a beautiful nipped waist look while still feeling spacious and comfortable. They feel like the rise is a little higher than the other washes, for some reason. They hug in all the right places and move easily. The straight leg cut is beautiful."
"I love these jeans, the black fit me very well, so I ordered them in Indigo too. The Indigo jeans were much smaller, and a helpful Everlane associate determined they were incorrectly labeled, exchanged them for a new pair. . . and the new pair was also incorrectly labeled. If you're ordering Indigo, maybe size up. Otherwise they are awesome, comfy jeans."
"Wish I hadn't taken the risk on a final sale item - I've only ever gotten size 28 at everlane and these are much smaller than other 28s, including the size 28 way high sailor jean I got in the same order, which have a 15. 5" waistband when measured flat, compared to these which are a tight 14. So these are technically "true to size," but small for all the other Everlane jeans I have. I have size 28 Way-High Curvy jeans in an indigo wash from a couple of years ago that have always fit great that also have a 15" waistband, measured flat. I'd swap them out for a Size 29 if I could, since those might still be tight but would relax with wear."
"I had to size up in Indigo due to some mislabeling. Usual size 30, wound up exchanging for size 31 and they fit great. Soft denim, great color."
"Loved the color, kind of a grey blue light wash. Super comfy fabric, less structured than my pair of cheeky 90’s jeans. Perfectly high waisted and good fit. Inseam was right at my ankle. I could have possibly sized down if I wanted a tight fit since the fabric would allow for a small amount of stretch. I’m 5’6, 34” waist, 42” hip, usually a size 14 and I ordered the 32"
"I wish i could give these 5 stars! I bought these in size 29 in salt water, shorter length, and they are my new favorite pants. I loved them so much that bought a second pair in the washed back color. While the second pair was the same size and length, they felt a full size smaller than my previous pair. I noticed other reviews complained about poor size consistency as well. Great pants for curvy figures! Just wish that the waist and hip measurements were consistent across individual pairs of pants of the same purported size"
