15 Brands Like JNCO Jeans for Baggy, Wide-Leg Denim

Spencer Lanoue·10 min readUpdated August 5, 2026

Twenty-eight inches of leg opening is a specific request. Once you've worn denim that wide, a "relaxed" fit from a mall brand feels like leggings, and most search results for baggy jeans hand you a mid-rise straight leg and call it a day.

JNCO is still trading, by the way. Founded by the Revah brothers in 1985, re-acquired by Milo Revah in 2019 and now selling out of Los Angeles, its current range runs from the 23-inch Tuffy to the 34-inch Rhino, priced £130 to £280 in the currency its store quoted us. These 15 brands sit in the same territory, and each one had wide-cut denim in stock when we checked.

Quick comparison. The closest match on silhouette is Palace, whose P90 is named for its leg width the way JNCO names the Rhino. The cheapest route to an extreme leg opening is Jaded London's Colossus fit. The most expensive is Naked & Famous, which charges selvedge money for the width. Obey, Stussy and Dime are the specialist picks with reliable stock, and Urban Outfitters is the one to use if you want to try several fits and return most of them.

Carhartt WIP

Carhartt WIP

Carhartt WIP is the European arm of Carhartt, run by Work In Progress, which took the licence to make Carhartt products outside the US in 1996, and it runs 48 denim styles in its men's jeans category. The Landon Pant is the loose one, cut wide through the thigh and straight to the hem. Brandon and Newel sit a step narrower, and Aaron is the roomiest of the lot.

Prices ran €89 to €149 on the store we were routed to. The site sends you to a regional shop based on where you're browsing from, so the currency and the exact figure shift by country.

Against JNCO, the difference is decoration. Carhartt WIP puts its identity in a square logo tab and a heavy 13-ounce fabric instead of embroidery down the leg, so the volume reads as workwear rather than rave.

Dickies

Dickies

Dickies makes the cheapest properly loose jean on this list. The 997 Loose Straight Carpenter Jeans ($74.99) carry a hammer loop and a wide straight leg, the 957 Loose Tapered Work Jeans run $69.99, and the men's Relaxed Fit Double Knee Jeans list at $64.99 before markdowns. All prices are USD on the US store.

The catalogue holds 79 denim styles, 33 of them cut loose or relaxed, which is a deeper bench than most streetwear labels can offer at this price.

What you give up is the drama. A Dickies jean is built to be worn on a job site, so the fabric is stiff and the finish is plain. If that reads as too plain, our brands like Dickies guide covers the workwear field in more depth.

G-Star RAW

G-Star Raw

G-Star RAW keeps a standing loose-fit jeans category rather than treating wide cuts as a seasonal experiment. Type 96 is the fit to look at, a high-rise loose leg drawn from the brand's own 1990s archive.

G-Star's engineering habit shows up in the seams. Panels are cut in three dimensions and twisted around the leg, so the volume holds its shape at the knee instead of collapsing.

Pricing sits mid-range, and the US store discounts hard enough that the sticker figure moves week to week, so we've left a number off rather than quote a markdown as list price.

HUF

HUF

HUF grew out of the San Francisco skate shop Keith Hufnagel opened in 2002, and its denim offer is deliberately small. The Basic Ass Jeans ($95 USD) are the one to know, a loose five-pocket with 30 of 34 size and colour combinations in stock when we checked.

Be clear about the scale here. Across 553 products, HUF lists three denim pants. This is a graphics-led brand that happens to make a good loose jean, not a denim specialist.

That said, the fit is the closest thing on this list to a plain JNCO silhouette without the embroidery, and the price undercuts most of the skate labels below.

Obey Clothing

OBEY Clothing

Obey Clothing carries the deepest baggy denim range of any brand here that isn't a retailer. Of 82 denim products, 40 are cut baggy, wide or carpenter, including Classic Baggy Denim ($98 USD), Bigwig Baggy Denim ($114) and Bigwig Carpenter Utility Denim ($105).

Shepard Fairey launched the label in 2001, twelve years after the sticker he made as a design student in 1989 started spreading down the east coast. The artwork still drives the collections, and washes lean oil-stained, snake-printed and heavy-vintage rather than clean indigo.

Sizing runs full across nine variants per style, so this is one of the few places where a baggy cut in an unusual waist isn't already gone.

Urban Outfitters

Urban Outfitters

Urban Outfitters is the retailer to use if you want to try three different wide fits and send two back. Its in-house BDG line does most of the work, with the BDG Nitro Baggy Fit Jeans and a run of relaxed straight and selvedge cuts alongside them.

We've left prices off this section on purpose. The category was running a sitewide markdown when we looked, and the product pages block automated reads, so any figure we quoted would be a sale price dressed up as list price.

The trade-off with a retailer is consistency. Fits change season to season and a cut you liked can quietly disappear, which is the opposite of how JNCO runs its named silhouettes year after year.

Supreme

Supreme

Supreme sells by drop, and that shapes everything else about buying its denim. New product lands on a fixed weekly schedule, popular sizes clear in minutes, and the shop sits quiet between releases.

Denim appears every season in loose and baggy cuts, usually washed, printed or patched. Because the storefront blocks automated reads and geo-routes you to a regional shop, we can't tell you what's on the site as you read this.

Treat it as a diary entry instead of a shopping trip. Check the week's preview, decide in advance, and have a second choice ready. For the wider hype-driven field, our streetwear brands like Fear of God piece maps the price tiers.

Palace

Palace

Palace is a London skate brand that names its jean fits by leg width, which makes it unusually easy to shop. The Autumn 2026 range lists the P90 Baggy Jean, the Legacy P90 Baggy Jean, the P90 Baggy Stitch Jean and the narrower P45 Jean.

Palace also works on a drop model, releasing on Fridays with a separate password-gated shop between releases. The main site stays open and shows the current range, so you can see the fits even when you can't buy them.

Pricing shows in GBP from the UK, and the P90 is the direct JNCO analogue here, with a leg opening wide enough to swallow a skate shoe.

Zanerobe

Zanerobe

Zanerobe is an Australian label founded in 2003, and its Denim Mega Pant (C$159.95) does exactly what the name suggests, a raw indigo pant cut wide from hip to hem. The Stitched Pintuck Denim Pant (C$179.95) adds a pressed front crease to the same volume.

Worth knowing before you click through: of 29 denim styles in the catalogue, four had stock across their size runs when we checked. Zanerobe quoted us in Canadian dollars, so yours may differ.

The house style is cleaner than the rest of this list, closer to tailoring than to skate. If your objection to JNCO was the embroidery rather than the width, that's the appeal.

Naked & Famous

Naked & Famous was founded in Montreal in 2008 by Brandon Svarc, a third-generation garment maker who buys his fabric from Japanese mills, and its wide fit is called Wide Wild West. It runs across 14 fabrics from $141 to $272 USD, including the linen blend indigo ($195) with 12 of 13 sizes available, a vertical slub at $141 and an organic faded corduroy at $272.

Raw denim behaves differently from the pre-washed stuff. It arrives stiff, it stains your hands, and the fades come from how you sit and walk rather than from a laundry process.

Four of the 14 washes have sold through, including shadow black and archive blue, so pick your fabric from what's live rather than from a wish list. This is the slowest jean here to break in and the one that repays the wait.

Stussy

Stussy sells the Big Ol' Jean ($160 USD), a wide straight cut that comes in six washes including rinsed indigo, vintage black, raw black with contrast stitching and a slub denim version. Every wash showed a full size run in stock.

Across 943 products the brand lists 27 denim pants, 25 of them buyable, which is a healthier denim business than most surf-and-skate labels of its age keep going.

The Big Ol' Jean is cut wide and straight rather than tapered, which puts it closer to a 1990s skate-shop silhouette than to the loose-tapered fits most brands default to. Our brands like Stussy guide covers the wider circle.

Dime

Dime is a Montreal skate brand that names its fits plainly. Baggy Denim Pants (£95) come in sandblasted indigo, overdyed blue, electric charcoal, wine wash and black with contrast stitching, and the Relaxed Denim Pants sit at the same price one notch narrower.

All 17 of the denim pants in the catalogue had stock when we checked, which is unusual for a brand of this size and makes it a safer click than the drop labels above.

Pin your currency before checkout, because the store quoted us in pounds. Dime's humour sits in the graphics rather than the cut, and the jeans themselves are plain, heavy and wide.

Butter Goods

Butter Goods runs the widest denim menu here. The Australian label lists Baggy Denim Jeans (A$159.95), Wide Cut Denim Jeans (A$159.95), Drummer Baggy Denim Jeans (A$159.95) and a Burn Wide Cut version in dark indigo plaid (A$169.95).

Prices are Australian dollars, and the store didn't offer us a US market path, so budget for the conversion and for shipping out of Australia.

Fabric choices are where this brand separates itself, with forest camo, Cordura denim, selvedge and a vertical stripe running alongside the plain washes. It's the closest any current label gets to JNCO's habit of treating a jean as a canvas.

Jaded London

Jaded London built its business on one fit. The Colossus is an ultra-wide low-rise jean, and the brand lists over 100 of them in stock across menswear and womenswear, from the plain LDN XL Colossus Jeans (£85) to studded, panelled, camo and coated versions up to £100.

This is the cheapest route to a leg opening this extreme. The 2K13 Moto Panelled Colossus (£90) and the Stud Camo XL (£90) sit closest to what JNCO was doing with graphics in the late 1990s.

Prices show in GBP on the main site, and a US market path exists at /en-us if you'd rather see dollars. Some styles carry a crossed-out figure, so check you're looking at the list price and not a promotion.

Karl Kani

Karl Kani earns its place on heritage. Carl Williams started out in Brooklyn and launched the label at the MAGIC trade show in 1991, and its own history page describes baggy denim and oversized shirts as the thing it brought to hip-hop. That's the same silhouette JNCO sold to skaters, from the other side of the culture.

The current denim range is small, and we'd rather say so than dress it up. Two jeans are listed, the Old Jean in black and natural (£76), plus the Santa Fe Baggy Pant in khaki (£72), which is cotton rather than denim.

Karl Kani also quoted us in pounds. If you want the 1990s hip-hop end of this aesthetic in more depth, our 90s streetwear brands guide runs through the rest of that generation.

How to Pick a Pair Without Guessing

Work backwards from leg opening. JNCO labels its fits by inches, and once you know whether you want the Wizard at 24 inches or the Rhino at 34, most of these brands become easy to sort. Palace and Butter Goods publish comparable widths, Jaded London's Colossus lands at the extreme end, and Carhartt WIP's Landon sits in the middle.

Then decide how much certainty you want. Obey, Stussy, Dime and Jaded London had near-full stock across their wide fits, so you can shop them on a Tuesday afternoon and get your size. Supreme and Palace release on a schedule and sell out, which is a different kind of shopping.

Currency is the last thing to check. Several of these stores route you to a regional shop and reprice as they go, and a figure in Australian or Canadian dollars can flatter a price that isn't cheap. Our denim brands like Levi's guide is the place to start if none of these widths are right.
