Frame Jeans Review

Frame brand jeans give you the ability to find the fit and cut that you dream of at night. With their assortment and accessibility in many stores and online it is easy to fall in love with these jeans over and over again.
(P.S. We love the story behind the creators of this brand, it’s worth the read to hear their story and learn about how they grew their brand!)
Cons
While their jeans do say that they have some give to them, they don’t have as much as you would expect in a jean nowadays.
But comfort is still holding strong! Wear these jeans for days and watch them hold true to their original shape. I have found also that if my ripped jeans are pulled on too much the rips do start to become larger but that can happen to any jean on the market.
