Does anyone know any companies that make fully straight leg jeans? No taper!
Somewhere in the range of an 18-20" leg opening preferably. Old silvertab Levi's are good, but I can't find anything that's come out recently that fits this category 😦

What's your location and budget? What wash denim are you looking for? Indigo? Black? Faded?
I'm in LA and would prefer to keep it under $150. No particular wash, but I do like them to be clean so I guess no fading or distressing

there is lots, it exists under wide leg denim searches
under $150 limits it a bit but there are many options still
Preciate you sending some links, those bronson ones look like they could work well. Yea just like a lot of the companies that make a little bit of a wider pant still taper it a tad. Like even the 578's taper. Just feel like it's hard to find a true straight leg pant these days.
if you're in LA there are also some vendors at the silverlake flea who sell some new jeans for very low prices with those wide legs
and lots of vintage ones at the silverlake flea and the rose bowl flea
True straight leg jeans are less common. Without any taper you're going to be looking at somewhere around a 26" to 30" circumference leg opening
You can definitely find plenty of jeans with a LO in the 20" to 24" range but I'm not sure of any in the sub $150 range as I'm not in the US
not many that arent made in china
but yeah jayzee I'd recommend searches under wide leg
since most 'straight leg' jeans are 16" at the most
yea I've hit up the silverlake flea and rose bowl before but trying to buy new stuff these days, yea I guess I'll just have to do some properrr deep diving lol thank yall
silverlake flea has a vendor that sells really nice looking new jeans with wide leg openings!
a friend bought some last week
ok dope I'll check it out again honestly been a minute since I've been
iirc they were pretty cheap too
less than $100?
cant remember
that's super solid
other than that I'd recommend just going the chinese route with bronson, red tornado, non stock, and bob dong
Kinda out of your budget but you should check out Braindead Studios in LA
LA Apparel has a 14oz option under 150. Idk about the quality of the denim but worth checking out in person maybe
Velour Garments also just released a very straight leg wide jean. It’s mostly sold out rn but I’m sure they’d release it again due to how successful it was

Forewarning on the Bronsons, they are unwashed raw denim that will shrink a lot, even after accounting for shrink with sizing up. I own a pair of bronsons and even tho I love them, they shrunk considerably from a wide leg to a tapered straight at best. The inseam also shrunk a lot to the point where they are kinda high waters now.
Great beater jeans but I can almost guarantee after washing they will not be the cut you described looking for
Ok dope! Thanks for the heads up with the Bronsons. I'll check out those links and keep an eye out for those Velour Garments
