20 Best Jeans For Dad Bod (2023 Updated)

I’ve bought so many pairs of skinny jeans online over the past few years and have always been disappointed when they haven’t fit me just right. They’re either too big or too small. But these skinny jeans blew me away.

I’m a bit of a big bloke at 175cm and 82kg, and the size 32 jeans fit me perfectly! Love the stretchy waistbands and material, and was also very impressed with shipping times, arriving just 5 days after I ordered them! If I could add a 6th star to my review I definitely would cause these jeans are the best ones I’ve ever purchased!.

These are the best jeans I have bought. Had been searching for an ethical company to buy from that also has great looking products. The fit is amazing and love that they are stretch fit. Look great on and feel amazing to wear all day.

Fit is true to size. I am just under 6 foot and 85kgs and I bought a 32. Fit amazing on my legs as I am a cyclist so have calves on the larger size and struggle to fit into normal skinny jeans. Will definitely be buying more of the amazing products that they sell.

Believe me when I say these pants were great. Comfortable to wear. Especially for someone who has big calves and is hard to find jeans to fit. Downfall is they lasted about a month before they start developing a rip in the fabric around the outside of the zipper.

Shame $60 jeans don’t last longer then a month.

I have the hardest time finding the perfect jeans for my size, Im about a 5x but in jean size I always have to wear a 58-60 because of the size of my calves and they have to be loose jeans, lately other products like Nautica or tru nation at that size in loose style jeans still dont fit me (waist size they do but not my legs).

these jeans from Lee fit PERFECT. They waist has a stretchy material and the leg room is perfect for me, the waist might actually be too big for me so I may need to go to a 56. Overall these jeans are perfect for me.

So if you have problems finding the right jeans to big legs and especially big calves, purchase these! you won’t regret it!.

This product seems good, until it ultimately fails. I have spent my last 55 dollars on jeans from Lee that constantly rip in the same spot, left butt cheek, 1/4 inch off of the pocket. 85% of the jeans i have purchased form Lee over the course of the past 5 years (I will be conservative and say I have purchased at least 2 pairs every year) have ripped in the same spot.

I wear these jeans maybe 1-2 times a week. This is a shame because I really do like the fit.

Color is awesome, size is perfect, plenty of room and flex, and they’re tough enough to work in all day, but when bending over i noticed that the 5 belt loops leave a little to be desired. There are 4 loops in the front & hip area with perfect spacing between them, but then only 1 loop in the rear which is perfectly centered.

When doing a lot of squatting and bending over I find myself trying to get the jeans area between the rear belt loop and the hip loop back underneath the belt. If there were 2 more belt loops spaced evenly between either hip loop and the rear loop it would be the perfect set of jeans for me.

Other than that, i love everything else about them.

I bought this jean to compare against the Slim-Straight. almost exactly as advertised. A little more room in the legs and cuff. I would say the color is darker than the photo so I gave 4 stars but I will more than likely get another pair of these.

I agree w/ the reviews, you can downsize a 1/2 size or so. I’m 6-2 and 200#, I went w/ the 32-32.

My search for the perfect pair of jeans is over. These are hands down the best jeans i have worn since the 90s. The athletic fit, cut and quality is remarkable. I searched “most comfortable jeans” on google.

This was 1st on the list and i would agree with that search result.

These are nice jeans, but seem to be cut big or oddly. They have a long rise so they fit really baggy around the hips, if you’re used to wearing your jeans below the waist. They kind of taper down (not enough to be called taper jeans) and fit pretty well around the legs and thighs.

The loose top makes them look sloppy, unless you pull them all the way up, but then they just look strange in my opinion. I wish they would make them in lower rise so you can wear them below the natural waist, like some other brands do.

Or make them truly straight so they fit as tightly around the waist area as they do around the legs.

I have always worn “relaxed” fit jeans and had no issues with them. I have bigger thighs and calves and normal fit are not usually comfortable, and slim fit would pretty much be impossible. These are the most relaxed “relaxed” fit jeans I have ever tried on.

They are so loose they are sloppy looking. I went to my local store and the employee said this is a common comment that they hear and suggested I try the regular fit. The regular fit was significantly better and not as sloppy looking, but the store was having trouble getting regular fit in stock.

To give you an idea of how big the legs are in the “relaxed” fit cut, I was able to wear a pair of running tights and a pair of sweat pants under the jeans and no one could tell I had the additional layers on.

Turning lemons to lemonade, I intend to keep the one pair I bought and make my own “lined” jeans using the previously mentioned sweat pants. As far as the look and quality they seem far superior to other brands I have worn (Lucky, a brand that starts with a W that the website won’t let me type, Gap).

My only complaint is how they are so much larger cut than any other “relaxed” fit jeans I have ever worn. You might want to try on the regular fit, before buying these to avoid a potential return or buyers remorse.

I absolutely love this pair of jeans and im saving them for a special occasion. This goes for any pair of denim jeans from JED North they fit perfect each time. I can wear them dressed down or dressed up.

These go perfect with my Puma hoodies and paired with the chunky white tennis shoes that are in style now. I also like how they show off my legs. You can see my built thighs and calves. ❤❤❤❤.

It fits great. I bought 2 in different color. The stretch of the material makes it very easy to wear. A little bit tight on the legs. Very satisfied with the purchase.

I was SUPER nervous to buy these online having never tried them on before. The problem with mens jeans is that 90% of the time they flatten your ass, no matter how defined your glutes are. These are absolutely NOT jeans that do that, and will definitely be purchasing more of them!.

I own 3 different pairs of performance denim relaxed in size 32 x 32 that fit perfectly. I ordered these firesides in the same size but they were remarkably short. I had to exchange for a 32 x 34 which are a bit long but otherwise fit fine.

Ultimately the length is not the same as the performance denim. The overall fit and style of the jeans (once I found an acceptable size) are great. They are definitely warmer than typical jeans but don’t set your expectations too high.

The snug fit doesn’t allow for insulation like a classic, baggy fleece lined pair. These prioritize style over warmth, which is fine by me. Overall happy with the purchase.

Ordered the pants online and received the order promptly. I have several pairs in relaxed fit 32/32 and they all fit great and are super comfortable. The fireside fit tight through the leg and not at all like my other pairs in the relax fit.

I went to the Vancouver store to try another size etc. but from advice from the salesperson kept the original size as there was no difference in the fit. She indicated they will stretch like the other.

They have not and I think they are more of a slim fit and possibly the batch is label wrong at the factory? They are definitely warmer but overall I’m not happy with so called relaxed fit on the Fire side.

I have 6 other pairs of Duers that are great.

Even with an unseasonably warm Fall in the Rockies these Firesides have done the job, day in and day out. I’ve worn them for 2 weeks straight and gotta say, I’m impressed. I run warmer than the average dude and bought these with colder winter days in mind but unless the heat is absolutely cranked indoors, they actually regulate heat really well.

The DWR is a bonus. Less “swishy” sounding than the All Weathers, IMO. I feel like Goldilocks finding that perfect pair of Fall/Winter pants. Jump on em before they sell out. I waited a year for them to come back in stock.

Bought these for my husband, and in the past two months he’s been wearing and washing them, they’ve shrunk a full size. When he first tried them on, they were loose and comfortable (how he prefers his jeans) and even a tad long.

They’re now super tight, and even on the verge of being too short. Another wash or two and he likely won’t be able to wear them anymore. So disappointed. He loved the look and style of them when they first arrived, they’re quite sharp looking for jeans.

Can’t believe how bad they turned out to be, and even worse, the money we wasted on them.

Let me start off with the good things about these which is the quality is fantastic! The jean material is that true thick jean quality, it is solid jean material not that stretchy material you see these days.

These remind me of the overall quality back in the 90’s before all these synthetic materials were created so these will hold up very nicely for many years to come. The colors on all of them were beautiful! Nicely and evenly died with true denim colors.

The stitching was nicely done so are the straps, metal buttons, buckles-again all quality metal. All of the amazing quality and work that went into these is why it pains me to say any negatives but sadly there are.

I went off of other reviews, model pictures/sizes, and the sizing chart when considering what size and length to order. Upon arrival of my order I found the model sizes, model pictures, sizing chart, description, and customer reviews to be misleading.

Based on description, model reference, and sizing chart I ordered a size 18. I also ordered a size 16 based on the custom reviews however I’m usually a 12. I ordered them in every color – they all fit the same – very very large in the legs and groin area.

This was the same for the overall shorts version too. The listing said the length hit at the ankle so per the model heights and being I wanted to roll them up, I ordered a tall length, which says is a 32″ inseam and is the length I normally wear however these were way too long – even for a tall person (I had my daughter try them on she’s much taller then me but they were even long on her).

I am returning them all and have reordered them in sizes 12 and 14 as well as in regular and petite lengths, hoping the next ones fit. Just for reference I am 5’4″/185 lbs/36F. I will write another review when I receive my next order.

(I did also want to point out I was not able to do an exchange therefore I am having to also pay more for my second order as there was a price increase.

I was SO excited to get these, but sadly they don’t fit right. One major design flaw is that the straps go wider as they lengthen, but this makes it hard to tighten the straps far enough when you’re short.

I tried tightening the strap as far as I needed it, but gave up. It’s not realistic to have to fight with the straps that much. Lastly, I’d love if these shortalls were made with a thinner denim. To make them cooler to wear in the summer.

I had a pair that I loved years ago & would love to find a similar pair again. These shortalls look cute, but it’s the straps that make it a deal breaker.
