Skinny Fit versus Slim Fit - The Battle That Never Ends!

Okay, so not a real battle, but the debate surrounding Skinny Fit Jeans and Slim Fit Jeans is one that has been ongoing for as long as we can remember. And for good reasons too. While the two Denim Jeans Fits aren’t that different from one another, the differences that they do have, happen to be significant deciding factors, especially when it comes to planning an outfit for any event. If you have ever found your eyes going back and forth between the two fits as you struggle to curate an outfit for an event, then you know exactly what we are talking about here. Both skinny as well as slim fit jeans are available in multiple colour options like black skinny fit jeans, mens blue slim fit jeans etc.

Before we get into when you should wear which fit, let’s have a quick look at what are the actual differences between the two. Skinny Fit Jeans, as the name suggests, are very snuggly fitted, meaning that they act as a second layer of skin in most cases. This snug look, in turn, gives you a more chic and put-together look. They also have very narrow leg openings which means that right from the waistline, down to the leg opening, Skinny Fit Jeans are the definition of the word snug. One huge pro for this fit is of course the super chic look that they give. But because of its snugness, this fit also restricts your movement to a certain extent. So wearing Skinny Fit Jeans on a day when you have to get a lot of things done, is probably one of the worst things you can do to yourself.

Slim Fit Jeans, on the other hand, have slightly more wiggle room, when compared to Skinny Jeans. While slim fit denim jeans are also snug around the waistline, they get slightly wider towards the end, which means they have a larger leg opening than Skinny Jeans. Though, not as wide as Regular Fit Jeans or Relaxed Fit Jeans, Slim Fit Jeans lays somewhere in the middle of Skinny Jeans and Regular Fit Jeans. Unlike Skinny Fit Jeans, Slim Fit Jeans are perfect for the days when you want to get a lot ticked off from your to-do list. Perhaps not as stylish as Skinny Jeans, Slim Fit Jeans are still considered one of the more stylish of the fits as there are many options in slim fit jeans like slim fit ankle length jeans, boys slim fit jeans, slim fit bootcut jeans etc.

For women, another separating factor for these two fits is all about how you are planning to accessorize them and has nothing to do with the cuts. Especially the footwear. If you are planning an outfit for a semi-formal event where you are planning on wearing heels of any type, Skinny Fit Jeans is the best outfit choice you can make. However, if the occasion is an informal family gathering, slim fit denim jeans and some comfortable sandals or shoes are the way to go for sure.
