Summer is here, and that means summer styling is front and center. Modern summer fashion goes beyond gender—comfort, versatility, and ensembles that defy convention define summer style.
That’s why no summer wardrobe is complete without baggy jeans. When temperatures heat up, a loose fit from hip to hem makes this denim style universally appealing.1 Are you curious about how to incorporate baggy jeans into your summer staples rotation? We’ve got you covered.
Below, we’ve curated a collection of summer baggy jeans outfit ideas to kick off this sizzling season. Plus, learn how accessorizing your baggy jeans can enhance your look.
Look 1: Casual Day Out
For sunny days and short nights, casual is fashionable. When exploring the city, choose pieces that channel convenience but don’t sacrifice style. The ideal summer uniform features:
- Laid back styles
- Lightweight materials
- Relaxed fits
Start with the Ultra Baggy Painted Work Denim in vintage blue to get the look. An oversized fit crafted from 100% cotton keeps you cool by supplying unparalleled comfort. A paint-splattered front and distressed detailing throughout feel good and look high-end at the same time.
Casual denim dressing is about contrast, too. Pair your baggy jeans with the Every Day Tee II in white. With a flat hemline, relaxed dropped shoulder, and updated fit, this tee is a modern take on an everyday classic.
For a top layer that will make you stand out but won’t weigh you down, choose our Denim Bomber Jacket. This denim jacket features a vintage washed and painted exterior in a distinct orange hue. Contrast ribbing and a standard fit achieve the informal but polished goal of casual styling. Finish the look with white sneakers for a clean contrast. If you’ve ever wondered, “What is a bomber jacket?” It's a versatile, lightweight jacket originally designed for military pilots, now a stylish staple in casual fashion.
There’s no doubt: summer is the season of casual dressing. But what about styling downtown looks with a noticeable edge?
Look 2: Street Style
Camo has been a street-style staple since the 1980s.2 Creatives and cultural icons favored the pattern for its tough persona and long-lasting wear.2 This print is a must-have for every fashion-forward dresser, regardless of season. But when it comes to summer street style looks, camo can:
- Operate as a neutral base layer
- Diversify your blue jean collection
- Add a trend-forward finish to classic pieces
Add the Ultra Baggy Cargo Pants in desert camo for a versatile base layer to your summer collection. Ripstop fabric promises a durable design that sustains activity in any cityscape. Cargo pockets exude an urban, edgy aura and offer extra storage for bonus points.
We like these cargo jeans paired with the Heavy Every Day Tee in black. Top off the look with a simple black cap and finish with high-top black sneakers. But you can also pair this with your favorite streetwear graphic tees.
Look 3: Relaxed Vibe
It’s summer—in between the bachelor weekends and family parties, don’t forget to lean into days where you kick back and relax. Styling for this season means embracing denim that encourages ease and freedom of movement, like our Baggy Everyday Denim jeans in light blue.
Constructed from 14 oz denim, these loose-fitting jeans will be the summer staple you reach for repeatedly. This mid-weight denim is ideal for summer because it3:
- Wears well
- Is substantial while still being comfortable
- Is cooler and lighter than heavy-weight denim
Wear it with the Heavy Every Day Hoodie in earth and neutral-colored slip-on shoes to build an ensemble that feels as comfortable as it looks.
This relaxed look is ideal where the vibes are just as laid back. Consider choosing this casual outfit for an afternoon at the skatepark or an evening on the back patio of your favorite food spot.
Look 4: Sporty Look
When your days are active, practicality and comfort are key. But summer fashion calls for thinking outside the box, too.
To start, incorporate pieces into your closet that fuse alternative aesthetics with casual classics. A sporty casual outfit is ideal for diversifying your wardrobe for dynamic summer days. Sporty elements seamlessly blend with casual fashion by:
- Energizing your outfit
- Adding depth and dimension
- Refreshing your staples
As for the jeans, a straight fit crafted from midweight denim means movement is effortless. Flexible mesh material adds stretch where you need it most. Complete the look with athletic or chunky sneakers in your choice of color.
Look 5: Chill Evening
Summer evenings offer an opportunity to switch up your day looks for bold and bright pieces. To dress for a chill evening, choose:
- Contrasting colors
- Defined footwear
- Minimalist accessories
The Ultra Baggy Double Knee Denim in orange paired with the washed Every Day Thermal L/S Tee in olive is the standout color combination you didn’t know you were missing.
The contrasting colors of this dynamic duo enhance the laid-back silhouette to create a casual but fashionable ensemble. Cut from 300 gsm cotton, this long-sleeve tee features a garment-dyed knit that boasts a luxurious look perfect for any outing after sundown.
Even better? This denim will be your go-to whenever you want a more eye-catching base layer. Finalize the look with casual loafers and a minimal watch to further refine the fit.
Baggy denim jeans and versatile top layers are a look on their own, but consider reviving your accessories this season, too. When it comes to accessorizing denim, a few methods apply.
Accessorizing Your Baggy Jeans
Accessories amplify the details of your denim and make everything look even more intentional. They should complement (and communicate with) your look. With that in mind, accessorize your baggy jean outfits with additions that:
- Elevate, rather than dominate, your style
- Are equal, balanced elements in your outfit
- Provide subtle but visible contrast
- Enhance the entire look
We like the Pearl And Cuban Chain Bracelet for its modern look and mismatched elements. To take your jewelry collection even further, instantly embellish every top layer by adding a necklace.
And no summer accessory arsenal should lack an all-purpose hat. Top off any outfit with the Active Hat in your choice of black, blue, or olive. An adjustable bungee cord closure allows for a fit tailored to you. A flat brim and perforated side panels give you breathability and, when you need it, sun protection.
