Wrangler Retro Slim Boot Cut Jeans are GREAT! (but run short)

[@xeverettx2564]

I just got a pair of the retro slim boot wranglers from my daughter for Christmas and they are honestly the best fitting/looking jeans I have ever owned. Plus the denim is heavier than the Levi’s 527 slim boots I used to get. They’d wear our in the crotch and back pockets after nine months of wear. When I’m spending 70 bux on work jeans I need to get at least a year and half out of them.

[@rj5822]

Tried some on today and glad to know I wasn’t the only one to notice they run short

[@Cumminsguy_18]

Personally love the wrangler retro bootcut line. I use it for wearing out as well as ranch work and riding. Very durable wear which haven’t worn out too bad yet from being in the saddle for an extended period of time but have begun to wear a little on the back end since they’ve been worn consistently for over a year . Great jeans!

[@danshappell1552]

Experienced the same condition on the sizing. Exactly correct on the inconsistent sizing with the same indicated size on the tags. I went to our local western store here in Fort Worth with that question for the sales person that i trust. The explanation that they gave me is: that Wrangler is manufactured in different countries and the sizing is not consistent throughout all of the manufacturing process front the different countries. The only way to get them to be as expected is to try them on. Makes for a really frustrating experience when buying them online.

The problem with the Wrangler Retro Jeans, is the pockets tear out so easily. At the copper rivets, on the back pockets, all of mine have torn. Before long your whole pocket is flapping in the breeze, right beside your butt cheek

[@adamreyling6505]

Are the pockets shallow like other wranglers?

[@dewboy13]

@@adamreyling6505 The ones I have seem like an average pocket to me. It's never grabbed my attention as overly shallow. I'm not sure if that particular style of Wrangler Retro Jeans shares that issue or not. Sorry I am of no more help.

[@jmckemy]

Can confirm, I work part time at the Double B and we see these jeans returned with rips at the pockets after only a few wears. Sad. They are good looking jeans.

[@dewboy13]

@@jmckemy they are super comfortable too. Just built like poo

[@crazylife4543]

⁠​⁠@@dewboy13yeah their pretty fragile jeans, went through a pair of slim bootcuts & slim straights that I used as my casual/ non outdoor or ranchwork jeans but they still tore within a year at the back pockets and also belt loops. if I was heavily abusing em with work or riding eh maybe understandable, but for em to tear from casual use? Cant beat the classic wranglers when it comes to durability thats for sure

[@allenkilzer3398]

Good call to go with the 36 - I prefer that stacked look. I'm a Wrangler guy but have not worn these. I'll try them out. As always, thanks Jeremiah!

[@blyt7]

I love the retro slim boot, I like relaxed boot too, but slim boot is my favorite for sure

[@GuresTan2]

Thank you very much for all the Infos dear Jeremiah, helps each of us 😀 You definitely deserve much more subscribers and views ❤

[@calientemac1]

I like your videos. Have you or can you do a video on the different devices available on market that fold the boot shaft so they’re not as visible under jeans? It would be great to show how they work with different size boot shafts while wearing different brands and styles of jeans (boot cut, straight stackable, etc.).

[@the.stin06]

My last pair of retros the wrangler leather patch fell of tore holes in the pockets real easy. They definatley run super short and I'd suggest to get em in person to make sure it fits correctly.

[@WesternWearEnthusiast]

Definitely a pair of jeans that works well with a variety of boots shapes and styles. I have noticed other companies seem to have trouble with sizing issues also and it is very frustrating. Overall those are a good looking pair of jeans.

[@robertburey4704]

My favorite Wranglers are their Riggs. Great tough work pants that boots look good with.

[@JonahCrisanti-hi3bo]

Walked past a stack of these today at Academy. Ended up going with some Wrangler Cowboy cut 13MWZ. But after seeing your review, I think I'll go pick a pair up. Thanks Jeremiah!

[@jimcollins9999]

The Retro slims look good on you with most every boot. You definitely require a 36" length JC. Thanks for the review!

[@ArmyAviator]

They do run really short and they shrink up a lot over time. I think that the layton color looks the best out of all of them. I have tried the BR Wash, Worn, and laton and layton has been my favorite. Also, can you review the Ariat Sport Rangers. I have been looking at them and there is really nothing about them anywhere.

[@coled5090]

I really like the look of these jeans. I haven’t had any issue with them ripping, although I know some who have. I’ve gotten these jeans for good prices at Bealls and Marshall’s, but they don’t often have them. I have a hard time getting a good fit with these jeans, it seems like they tend to fit too baggy in the legs, even if the waist fits well. On the other hand, when the waist fits well, the legs are too tight. It would be better if they had more consistent sizing. The regular Cowboy Cut Wrangker jeans are made better and fit well, but I fund they tend to be thicker and hotter for regular wear and the pockets are too tight. The Retros were a good idea to have the Cowboy look modernized and updated a bit, but the fit just stinks, and durability is much less.

[@WethepeopleFreedom76]

I ordered some from Amazon Retro Slim one pair was retro slim boot cut. I will probably return. The retro slim is already made for cowboy boots. I usually wear 32x30. I had to go up to 36x32 for a proper fit.

[@freddymardiceii3273]

Great video Jeremiah!! I have two pairs of those in the same Layton color. Great jeans!!

[@gttone323]

Very similar to the Levi 513 which is my favorite jean slim straight. Im going to have to check them out. Levis isn’t making a lot of colors in 513’s nowadays.

[@joncerda351]

I miss the Wrangler skinny jeans they were awesome

[@LaggerGT9]

I love the slim straight, but have had consistent quality issues with the slim bootcut. The main problem has been around the inside of the back pockets, splitting on 3 different pairs.

[@madgav935]

Dude I was waiting for this video because I just got some and there great!!

[@_fmd_]

I'd love to see what you think on the retro relaxed bootcuts from wrangler. Personally my favorite jeans for my boots, they have a little bigger leg opening like the cody james do so with my J toe boots they kind of look like bell bottoms, but with my square toe or bigger round toe boots they sit perfectly.

[@Catmannix12]

Hello I am from Australia and I absolutely love western riding and I need to buy some western jeans that i can ride in because the dress jeans I have jewels on the back pockets. ( pure western womens) would you recommend Ariat jeans or wrangler jeans? Thank you for your amazing vid, its great to have someone who knows so much about western fashion

[@davesmith7842]

Wrangler sizing is so inconsistent I've given up on them. On their web site they say their tolerance is + - 1" which could be a 2 inch swing compared to the last pants you got from them. Too bad. I like a lot of their features- rivets, 7 belt loops and high back pockets.

[@Thorsmite]

Great video content and wow your collection of boots!! Awesome!!

[@sailingneil]

Love a good pair of Wranglers. Being a taller, thinner person I like the cut of the slim fits. The 36" ones are definitely better on you than the 34".

[@robbie5396]

Which Wranglers do you go for Neil? These or 936s or other style? I want some that are slim cut but don't show the boot shaft tops. Any advice greatly appreciated.

[@brunswickworks]

I really like the W on the rear pockets.

[@keithboyd7976]

May 19th. I recently ordered relax fit retro. I made the mistake of taking them to the cleaners/tailor. Wrangler doesn't offer in my inseam. I'm 5’9” on a good slouch day. Wearing them in real life I noticed the pockets are very small. Even the fifth pocket that I use. I figured out the problem. They ran out of men's size pockets so they grabbed a stack of BOY'S pockets. QC didn't notice and sent them on their way.

[@VanWo]

My fav jeans for normal daily wear

[@davefs9441]

Great video! Have two of Wrangler Retros and they’ve held up well. You noted that the longer length “felt” better. Was that due to actually physically fitting better, or based on how they (stylistically) looked? Also recently picked up pair of Ariat M7 Slim Straights at Cowboy Christmas during NFR and loving them! Speaking of, any thought of you coming out during NFR and setting up a booth? Thanks!

[@joshuasummers8481]

I love wrangler jeans!

[@Canadian-wi2bo]

Perfect I was just looking at these

[@johnthomas424]

You should speak about the difference, circumferences around the top of the shaft of your boots and others. They are all different. And they wear differently under certain jeans. I prefer a circumference no more than 14 or 13 inches around the top of the shaft of the boot. There are boots that are called narrow shafts. Do you know anything about those?

[@ZayyanAbqori]

ini baru Wrangler terbaik yang pernah saya lihat the best is Wrangler 👍👍👍

[@adamreyling6505]

They look good, i like the color. Ive heard they rip easily.

[@BennyB-od8jb]

I’d be interested to see if where your jeans are manufactured and if it makes a difference. I’ve found the exact same carhartt canvas pant is longer and shrinks less from Nicaragua than those made in Bangladesh.

[@Zarugoza5969]

We need a jeans tierlist

[@JeremiahCraig]

Soon!

[@robbie5396]

I haven't tried Wrangler jeans but being a similar height and build to you, I think that size would suit me well. Do they come in a darker blue at all?

[@SpartanG229]

I have two pairs, but I’m sticking with my 13mwz rigids

[@kevinmurray79]

I love my retro's only problem I have is they will rip at the pockets. I gave to reinforce the pockets to keep it from happening.

[@tommybriceno7846]

Hey J!!! What’s the difference between real and fake stingray boots??? I’m having trouble knowing the difference I’d hate to waste money on something fake for my father. Please help me!

[@sherekcio3651]

One key thing for the 36 inch size, how tall are you?

[@doctordimension020]

I wear a 33x30 in old navy jeans straight fit straight leg so what length would you recommend if they run short

[@ericholman6116]

Didn't come in 33 waist at least where I bought mine. Got 34 which seems really big. Anyone know if the 32s would stretch enough for someone who wears 33 waist.

[@johnthomas424]

Here’s an idea. Why don’t you also add the information about the shaft circumference on the top? They are not all the same and some show more than others under certain fitting jeans. Zipper shaft wear closer. What boot do you recommend with a 14 or 13 inch circumference on the top of the shaft?

[@JeremiahCraig]

Shaft circumference is proportional to the size so I'm afraid that information might mislead some folks who are a different size than me. I like the idea though which is why sometimes I mention when boot tops are a little wider or more narrow on average

[@mrfazzy3137]

Do these shrink when Washed and dried

[@ramonlemus1384]

Can you do rock and roll revolver straight jeans?

[@A-rm_aan]

Can we alter their length

[@ToddBrooks-gm6hy]

Always wash is cold water, warm at worst, and line dry several times before machine drying. Maybe 10 minutes on low heat wrinkle rid.

[@CountryKyle007]

Wrangler pro rodeos are deff the better jeans. Just wish they had a leather patch like these instead of rubber, and better colors.

[@rl6319]

Try cowboy, cut Roundhouse jeans they’re made in the USA

[@ramonlemus1384]

Can you do true luck jeans from ross?

[@MissingLinkMTB]

I'm chonky. No slim fit for me 😕

[@hippyhay1659]

I've had two pairs bust apart in the rear, as others have noted here. One came apart by the belt loop rivet, and the other blew apart along the left side of the rear right pocket. Both were barely used. I kissed goodbye $140 bucks. "Made in Bangladesh" says it all. Don't waste your money on these.

[@BirdRodriguez-u5v]

Good jeans but fade way to fast

[@mahedyhassan6275]

I bought it for less then 10 dollars Cause i live in Bangladesh. 🎉🎉🎉

[@thewildbunch2782]

Skinny jeans are not cool.

[@TheLoneLander]

Keep wearing baggy ass jeans and feel cool ig, it looks like crap on thin guys.

[@dark_gravity_edc]

My issue with so many Jean companies is spandex. The spandex wears out and causes runs, loss of structure, and the waist to stretch. It works for the company, though, because you buy more.
