The High Waist Western Flap Pocket Ripped Jeans in Light Green are cut from denim at a weight that balances structure with wearability. New out of the bag they feel crisp; after the first two washes and a full week of wear they break in to a more relaxed hand that still holds the shape of the cut. The leg silhouette works with both heels and flat shoes — a versatility that more extreme cuts (very wide or very skinny) don't offer. The distressed and ripped detailing is pre-worn in at the factory to create authentic-looking wear patterns — not random holes, but fraying that follows the natural wear lines of the knee, thigh, and hem. Available in Light Green, Green, Beige.
Construction & Details
- Flap pockets with button closure — 18cm deep, holds a full-size phone, card wallet, and keys without visible bulging
- High-rise waistband sitting approximately 25–27cm from the crotch seam — elongates the visible leg line and stays in place through movement
- Denim at 10–12oz — structured enough to hold shape through a full day, breaks in substantially after the first 2–3 washes and a week of wear
- Distressed and ripped detailing at natural wear points — raw-edged fraying that follows the actual wear lines of the fabric rather than looking randomly applied
- Available in sizes XS, S, M, L — see the size guide below before ordering
- Comes in Light Green, Green, Beige, Black — each colorway has distinct styling potential depending on how casual or elevated you want the outfit to read
Fit & Sizing
Size to your hip measurement first, then consider the rise. The high waistband sits approximately 25–27cm from the crotch seam — for most people that's 3–4cm above the navel. If you have a short torso, the waistband may land closer to the bra line, which can feel uncomfortable when seated for long periods. Size for the hip and thigh; if the waistband has a little extra room, a belt fixes it cleanly. Going down a size to get a tighter waistband at the expense of hip room is the wrong trade. Sizes: XS, S, M, L.
How to Style
Ripped denim places these firmly in casual to smart casual territory — they won't read as polished in formal or corporate-professional settings regardless of how the rest of the outfit is styled. For smart casual, pair with a tucked-in silk or satin top and heeled mules — the contrast between the rough denim and the refined top creates intentional tension that works. White ripped styles dress up more easily than indigo; black sits in between.
Fabric & Care
Wash inside-out in cold water — this slows colour fade significantly by protecting the outer face of the denim from friction against other garments. Avoid fabric softener (it accelerates denim fade) and machine drying on high heat (which causes up to 2cm of inseam shrinkage per cycle). Air dry or low-heat tumble.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you buy
How does the high waist on the High Waist Western Flap Pocket Ripped Jeans in Light Green affect what size to order? +
Size to your hip measurement first, then consider the rise. The high waistband on these sits approximately 25–27cm from the crotch seam — for most women that's 3–4cm above the belly button. If you have a short torso the waistband may land close to the bra line, which some find uncomfortable when seated for long periods. Size for the hips, then use a belt or tuck-in top if the waistband has a little extra room. Going down a size to get a snug waistband at the expense of hip room is the wrong trade.
Is the denim on the High Waist Western Flap Pocket Ripped Jeans in Light Green rigid and structured or does it soften with wear? +
The denim sits at roughly 10–12oz — heavier than typical fashion denim, lighter than workwear. New out of the packaging it feels structured and slightly stiff; after the first two washes and a few full days of wear it breaks in substantially. The knees and seat soften first, followed by the thigh. Unlike raw denim, these don't need months of conditioning — most customers find them comfortable by the end of the first week.
Do the flap pockets on the High Waist Western Flap Pocket Ripped Jeans in Light Green add visible bulk to the hips and thighs? +
When empty, the flap pockets lie flat against the thigh — they don't create visible volume or silhouette distortion. When loaded with a phone and wallet the pocket will have some dimension, but because the flap covers the opening, it reads as structured rather than lumpy. The pocket placement at mid-thigh rather than the hip means the visual weight sits below the widest point of the body, which actually works in favour of most silhouettes.
Will the light green denim on the High Waist Western Flap Pocket Ripped Jeans in Light Green fade quickly with regular washing? +
Denim dye releases most heavily in the first three washes — washing inside-out in cold water significantly slows the fade rate. After the initial three washes, colour loss stabilises and the fade becomes gradual and even, which most people find improves rather than damages the look over time. If you want to preserve a dark wash as long as possible: hand wash or machine cold on the gentlest cycle, no agitation, air dry. Fabric softener actually accelerates denim fade by opening the fibers — skip it.
Is the western detail on the High Waist Western Flap Pocket Ripped Jeans in Light Green subtle enough for everyday wear or does it read as costume? +
Western detailing (yoke stitching, contrast topstitching, snap closures) reads as a style reference rather than costume when the rest of the outfit stays contemporary. The key is avoiding double-down: western pants plus a plaid western shirt reads as a costume; western pants with a plain white tee and white trainers reads as a fashion statement. The stitching detail is the element that makes these interesting — it catches light and adds texture that plain pants don't have.
Do the High Waist Western Flap Pocket Ripped Jeans in Light Green work for a pear shape — wider hips and thighs relative to waist? +
These are well-suited to pear and hourglass shapes. Size to your hip measurement: the hip and thigh fit is fixed, the waist can be adjusted with a belt or taken in slightly if needed. For a pear shape, the most common issue with non-stretch bottoms is the gap at the back waistband when the hips are larger relative to the waist — a belt solves this quickly. The key measurement to get right is the thigh circumference, not the waist: if the thigh fits comfortably, the rest of the sizing logic follows.
