All About Jeans: Women’s Jeans Guide

February 3, 2017 - posted by EmmaLee Sessions

If you’ve ever been shopping for women’s jeans then you understand exactly how frustrating it can be. Either they fit your waist and hips and you feel like you’re going to split the leg seams with every step, or they fit your thighs and hips and gap at the back of the waistband.

There is just no winning, or so it would appear. What you need to do is identify what you like and steer clear of things that don’t match up with that.

As discussed in our Men’s Jeans Guide, the way your jeans fit is about more than just comfort. It’s also about looking good, by finding what is most flattering for your body shape, and feeling better. Hopefully, the three aspects we discuss today, rise, leg opening, and fit, will help you in your quest for the mythical “perfect pair of jeans.”

Women’s Jeans: RISE

A jean’s rise is determined by how far the waistband of the jeans comes up the waist. The greater the distance is between the crotch and the waistband the higher the rise.

Each brand varies from one another, but there are typically three main rises. You can approximate the rise of a jean by measuring from the crotch seam to the top of the front waistband.

Natural-Rise Ladies’ Jeans

Natural rise jeans, also called high-rise or performance rise, sit right at the waist. This rise is more than 10 1/2″ and help your legs look longer. These women’s jeans are perfect for those competing in rodeos, or for hard-working ladies that do a lot of bending in a day. Take a look at the variety of ladies’ natural rise jeans, like Wrangler 18MWZ or Cinch Jenna, we have here at Smith & Edwards:

Mid-Rise Ladies’ Jeans

Mid-rise jeans sit just below the waist or about an inch below the navel. This popular rise is neither too tall nor too short, measuring between 9″ and 11″. Most body types look flattering in this rise!

From Wrangler’s Cash and Q-Baby to Cinch Ada, Silver Aiko to Rock Revival, you’ll find something you love.

Low-Rise Ladies’ Jeans

Low-rise jeans sit a few inches below the navel. The rise is between 7 – 9-1/2″ and are most flattering on slender figures.

Keep in mind that “muffin tops” and “love handles” are often accentuated by this fit style. Check out our Wrangler Sadie and Cinch Bailey styles, and our selection of Rock Revival jeans.

You’ll find Women’s Jeans on our website, and even more styles in our Ogden, Utah store.

Ladies’ Jeans: LEG OPENING

In women’s jeans, there are so many different leg openings and it can get real confusing.

You may ask quite frequently, “When is the best time to wear ______________ jeans?” This leg opening section of my women’s jeans guide should help you out a lot!

Women’s Skinny Jeans

Skinny jeans are tight around your calf and are perfect to wear with fashion and western boots, most flats, and heels. They taper from the knee down and have an ultra low profile. This makes them perfect for showing off those red high heels or your favorite western kicks.

Take a look at our Cruel Girl Abby jeans. Cruel Girl and Cinch are sister companies and you can find multiple styles sold right here in our Ogden location.

Women’s Straight-Leg Jeans

Straight leg jeans have the next lowest profile and are extremely versatile. The bottom half of the pant leg goes straight down from the knee, so they are a little looser around your calf than skinny jeans. You’ll love these Silver Suki styles and the original Wrangler 14MWZ cowboy cut jeans in white and blue.

Ladies’ straight leg jeans tuck into boots fairly well and can be worn with most footwear. If you like the cuffed look, these jeans are perfect for getting an even cuff with no puckering.

Women’s Bootcut Jeans

Bootcut jeans are narrower in the knee than at the leg opening, so you can put the pant-leg over your boots. A lot of your western, riding, or work jeans are boot cut. You can also wear this style with your favorite pair of tennis shoes. They don’t cuff as well as your skinny or straight-leg jeans.

Wrangler’s Mae, Cash, and Classic Fit jeans are as hardworking and fashion forward as you are. Also check out the different Ariat styles we carry.

Women’s Wide Leg & Flare Leg Jeans

Wide leg and flare leg jeans have a very distinct flare. The hem of the pant-leg is wider than the knee. “Trouser cut” is one specific style of wide leg pants. We know you’ll love this Cruel Girl Jayley style with a trouser cut.

Women’s Jeans: FIT

A jean’s fit is determined by how tightly it fits through your waist, hips, and thighs. Fit styles include slim, regular, relaxed, and loose fit.

Depending on the manufacturer of the jeans you’re looking at, you may see different terms or style names on the jean fit spectrum. This section will give you a base knowledge, but you’ll always want to check with the manufacturer to determine the most likely fit of the jeans you want to buy.

Ladies’ Slim Fit Jeans

Slim fit jeans hug your curves tightly and are narrow from the waist through the hips and thighs. Brands such as Rock Revival, Miss Me, and Grace in L.A. tend to have a slimmer fit. Take a look at these and other great brands in slim fit.

Ladies’ Regular Fit Jeans

Regular fit jeans hug your curves but offer a better range of movement than slim fit. They are a little looser between the waist, hips, and thighs. This common fit is flattering and comfortable.

We carry this fit in brands such as Silver, Ariat, and Wrangler styles 09MWZ, WRC10, and WRQ20.

Ladies’ Relaxed Fit Jeans

Relaxed fit jeans fit loosely through the waist, hip, and thigh. They are more comfortable than other fits because of the extra room and freedom of movement.

Cinch’s Ada and Bailey styles are the perfect jeans for that girl who needs to move! We also have a variety of Wranglers and other brands with this same great fit.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Ladies’ Loose Fit Jeans

Loose fit jeans have even more room through the hip and thigh. This fit is baggy through the waist, hip and thigh. They allow for better movement and added comfort. Many of your boyfriend-style jeans would be considered loose-fit jeans.

Tips for Caring for your New Jeans

Now that we have gone over all of the basics about a jean’s fit then you can be set free, right? Unfortunately, it’s not quite that easy. There are just a few final things to keep in mind when buying and caring for jeans.

First, just find what you are comfortable in. The next time you go shopping, take your favorite pair of jeans with you. This will help you find jeans similar in size, style, fit, and color to aid you in your shopping experience.

Next, learn how to care for your jeans. To ensure that jeans will fit the same way every time you wear them you need to wash them in cold water and avoid the dryer. Hot water and heated drying will cause your jeans to shrink and your jeans will be unable to recover.

One last thing to keep in mind is getting your jeans starched at the dry cleaner’s every once in a while. This will keep your jeans feeling and looking like new. It also helps to prolong the life of your jeans.

4 New Ways to Stay Warm & Keep Food Hot in Tough, Cold Weather

October 24, 2016 - posted by Rose Marion

With winter just around the corner, we’ve stocked up on your must-haves for playing & working outside.

Whether your job’s out in the elements, or you like to play out in the snow, you’ll love these new clothes and food & drink items from rugged brands like Stanley & Berne.

Some Smith & Edwards employees volunteered to help show off the new goods – thanks guys!

Stanley thermoses are the go-to for keeping coffee, hot chocolate, soup, & chili warm while you’re working at a cold job site. We visited the north yard at Smith & Edwards to put them to the test.

These are tough enough to keep your meals & hot chocolate warm for 2 days. Now that’s good for just about any type of traveling or outdoor job. Not to mention they’re perfect for Ice Fishing & Elk Camp!

These Stanley insulated stainless steel pint cups have a grip built in. They come with a sipping lid, and keep your iced beverage cold for 4 hours!

If you want to keep your cold beverages cold, Stanley thermoses are still the way to go! With growlers and cups, you’re covered for summer concerts & relaxing on the porch.

New items from Stanley include a 2-gallon Adventure Jug Beverage Dispenser (bottom left), metal lunch box, insulated growlers, and new sizes of the time-tested Stanley thermos!

We carry the old Stanley standards, plus we just got in brand-new styles! Stanley now has a crock pot and a water jug with spout dispenser in 1-gallon & 2-gallon sizes. There’s also a new Stanley lunch pail that nests a Stanley bottle or mug with plenty of room for food.

EmmaLee’s Stanley 3-quart Adventure Vacuum Crock keeps hot food hot for 12 hours, and cold food cold up to 16 hours!
Cole’s holding the Stanley 2-Stage Lid Thermos. Depending on which size thermos you buy, this insulated stainless steel thermos will keep ice water cold for 36-48 hours!

Dreamed up in Utah, these genius reusable Dutch oven liners are here at Smith & Edwards! Sized exactly for your 12″ or 6-quart Dutch oven, there will be more sizes to come.

Made to withstand temperatures up to 450 degrees, this saves you from hauling that heavy cast iron pan over to the sink or stream to scrape dried dessert off the sides. Just peel it from your Dutch oven, then hand wash or place in dishwasher!

This blue Dutch oven liner will keep your cast iron clean! Plus: Click here for Dutch oven cookbooks. Click for our popular camo tablecloths!

This new item is COMING SOON to Smith & Edwards…. watch this page for updates!

You can see our clothing buyer, Craig, above. He just added a new line of workwear. Why?

Berne’s jackets feature pleated action backs and elbows to let you move with ease when you’re working. Instead of the whole jacket shifting when you reach or lift, the elbows and back extend to keep you covered.
Every men’s & women’s work jacket & coat features 3 inside-chest pockets
All main seams on Berne insulated outerwear feature triple-needle stitching for extra security
It’s a great product at a good price!

Berne is also available for ladies! Styled & designed to fit ladies comfortably, you’ll find insulated work wear designed for women from the Berne product line. And it’s not just the tailoring: choose from traditional or fresh, bold colors like bright blue and dark pink!

Bonus: Much of this gear is also great for Ice Fishing, too!

Skiing, snowboarding, hunting, ice fishing – the key to staying warm in those awesome winter hobbies is to keep a synthetic base layer on! Cotton will actually chill you when you sweat – so choose a good top & bottom baselayer set from Columbia or Under Armour for ladies. For the guys, we have those same brands plus Carhartt base layers available.

You'll find women's base layers for Columbia & Under Armour - perfect for ice fishing!

We carry them for her! You’ll find women’s base layers for Columbia & Under Armour. They’ll keep her warm ice fishing!

Valentine’s Day Outfits: “You had me at YELLOW”

February 3, 2016 - posted by Jerica Parker

“You had me at yellow” is how this young couple came to be.

Spencer, part of the Sporting Goods team here at Smith & Edwards, and his lovely new wife Emily, said they would love to be the models of our new Valentine’s Day outfits.

So, we took them across the road to Willard Bay, and what a beautiful winter day for this cute couple to spend together!

You had me at Yellow…

Emily looks amazing in this cute yellow and gray raglan tee from Cruel. The 3/4 length sleeves and geometric pattern print on the front are both comfy and stylish. And she’s combined it with a Cruel hat with navy and yellow embroidery to match the geometric design of her top.

Do it like Spencer, flirty in a lightweight gray t-shirt from Hooey. It’s great on its own, or you can combine it with a nice button-up for a dressier look. He’s wearing a Stetson pink and blue plaid button-up shirt loosely over top.

Keep it comfortable in jeans like Spencer’s Regular Joes by Tin Haul, and Emily’s Bailey Cinch jeans.

I’d be blue without you…

Another great look for this Valentine’s Day is “I’d be blue without you.”

Emily has this written all over her with this fashionable navy blue Cruel cotton button-up shirt with cute stitching and arrow print.

With all of her outfits, Emily has added the perfect touch with some arrow designed jewelry from Rock 47 by Wrangler.

And for the finishing detail, Emily has on Latigo Tucson boots from Tony Lama. These are perfect for any outfit with a great tan color and beautiful decorative stitching. Spencer sports Hooey Twisted X boots with stitching up the dark leather shaft and Hooey embroidered logo on the vamp. Click here to shop cowboy boots on our website!

A big thanks to Spencer and Emily for modeling and standing out in the freezing cold with us! They did amazing, and it was so much fun to do this shoot with them.

Valentine’s Day doesn’t always mean pink and red! Mix it up with these “You had me at Yellow” and “I’d be Blue without you” fashions this Valentine’s Day.

Keep ’em Cool in Camo: Kids’ Camo!

January 13, 2016 - posted by Misti Kosoff

My brother looking cool in his camo

My brother Craig buys all the camo for Smith & Edwards. He has a saying that’s famous here: “Nothing says COOL like CAMO!”

Back several years ago, most camo was just available in men’s sizes. Ladies and kids wore the smallest men’s sizes they could find.

Luckily the camo companies got on board, and now not only can you find ladies’ camo – both pink camo and ladies’ sizes of Kryptek, Realtree, and Mossy Oak patterns – but boys’ camo and girls camo, too!

Youth Camo and Carhartt Outdoor Gear

Sam and his big sister Emileigh wanted to help me show you some of the youth camo available at Smith & Edwards. Sam and Emileigh are the son and daughter of Amy, who works at Smith & Edwards in our inventory department. Here they are!

Sam’s wearing Kryptek Highlander camo pants and a Kryptek Highlander camo jacket, both from Koda Adventure Gear. Click here to shop kids’ camo online.

Emileigh’s loving this Browning Buckmark ladies’ hat. Her Carhartt camo jacket features Realtree Xtra camo on the outside and a pink-lined hood.

Click here for ladies’ camo hats and gear!

Love Carhartt? You can also find camouflage Carhartt in kids’ sizes.

Emileigh loves this pink-sleeved girls' Carhartt camo shirt!

Emileigh loves this pink-sleeved Carhartt camo shirt!

Sam with boys' camo pants and Carhartt brown hoodie

Carhartt always goes well with camo!

Get Sam’s Carhartt hat here – it’s made in USA and fits kids & adults!

How did we keep Emileigh & Sam warm in a photoshoot below 30 degrees on a cold Utah winter day? A secret from our Surplus department…

Youth Polypropelene from Surplus

That’s right, you’ve been asking for youth-sized polypropelene just like the adult sizes we carry. This stuff is the best for ice fishing, night fishing, layering for other cold activities like hiking, snowshoeing, and even keeping in your emergency gear.

It’s nearly impossible to find youth polypropelene thermals, so when our surplus department got in a shipment, they asked me to tell you about it! Come in and get yours while they last. You can also find them online here with our top cold weather gear picks.

We have brown and black in select tops & bottoms. Both Emileigh and Sam are wearing a size Medium of the polypropelene crew neck shirt and pants.

Polypropelene wicks away moisture and continues to retain warmth – even when wet! It’s a good insulation materia, very warm, and it’s not itchy like wool. Polyproplene launders well, so it’s easy to wash and dry.

Polyproplene thermals can be hard to find because it’s not as well-known as cotton or polyester! And, it’s especially hard to come by polyproplene in kids’ sizes, because there’s not a high demand for extreme cold weather clothing for children, like there is for the adult sizes. But when you find it, it’s the same quality as the adult sizes. As our Surplus manager Ryan Seager told me, this is “Adult quality in KIDS’ sizes!”

Plus, these tops & bottoms fold up very compact, especially compared to wool and puffy jackets – so they are great for emergency kits.

Get your polypropelene gear:

Zip Top Kids Polypropelene Shirt

Crew Neck Kids Polypropelene Shirt

Kids Polypropelene Bottoms

Thanks Sam & Emileigh for your help!

Right on HUE: Dyeing Rodeo Outfits for Queens with Rodeo Ink

October 3, 2015 - posted by Jerica Parker

I have always looked at Rodeo Queen contestants and wondered how they got all their outfits to match so perfectly. It’s incredible! From their hats, to their boots, and even their horse tack, it is all the same shade.

A frequent question we get asked is, How do I dye my own rodeo queen outfits? So, we asked around to give you the answers.

A photo posted by Rodeo Ink (@rodeoink) on Aug 3, 2015 at 10:32am PDT

If you’ve ever tried to dye your own rodeo outfits, you’ve experienced just how hard it really is. Sometimes they can turn out, and other times the whole batch is botched.

So we talked to Ron Hansen, owner of the Rodeo Ink Company. We got the chance to sit down with him and talk to him a little bit about his business Rodeo Ink and dyeing rodeo outfits.

A photo posted by Rodeo Ink (@rodeoink) on Aug 13, 2015 at 1:23pm PDT

Dyeing Rodeo Outfits Q&A

S&E: How did you get started?

Ron: Ever since my little girl started doing rodeo queen contests, I’ve started dyeing her outfits. Pretty soon, word got out, and I began sending out dye orders for rodeo queens all over the states. It’s been 5 years now since I’ve started, and since Rodeo Ink opened for business.

S&E: What are some common mistakes people will make when dyeing on their own?

Ron: Well, dyeing is kind of a tricky thing. Many times, people don’t take into account all the different materials and dyes you have to use to get the same shade on everything. People can very easily can ruin a pair of jeans when dyeing. I hear a lot of “Help me fix this!” and a lot of times, stripping the dye out again is nearly impossible.

So I help people start over. Some good jeans to start with when dyeing are white Wranglers, style 13 or 14, and blank white boots. That way the dye goes on in its pure color, and you’re not overlapping and getting strange colors in the end.

S&E: What does a rodeo queen need dyed?

Ron: Just about everything! That includes shirt, jeans, boots, etc. Even reins, saddle pads, and custom tack. I can dye all those all the same color to match the outfit. Also, I have a contact with someone who does custom jewelry, airbrushing, and more.

S&E: What other events do you do dyeing for?

Ron: I do stuff for high school rodeo queen contestants, horse shows, Western pleasure, Texas stock shows, and even youth competitions – not just high schoolers. Also, I have worked with State Queens and Miss Rodeo America contestants.

Pearl and Perri Douglas for Box Elder County Minnie Princess

S&E: What’s rodeo queening’s effect on families?

Ron: Rodeo Queening is a great program for families. I have been involved in rodeo for more than 30 years and I was a rodeo clown & bull fighter for about 13 years. My whole family has been involved in rodeo for 10 years now and we have learned a lot, and not only about rodeo.

Being involved in rodeo queen pageants teaches kids about responsibility and self-worth, which is something that can help these kids out a lot when growing up.

Now We Know!

Thank you Ron! He gave us some awesome tips and ideas and we hope that those were able to help you as well. He’s got a knack for dyeing and says that he can match any color you send him. He recently added a new gal to help him out during the peak season, where they send out about 10-12 pairs in a week to orders from all across the United States and Canada.

If you would like to get into contact with Ron, or would like to look at some of his work, here you can check out his Rodeo Ink Instagram or his Rodeo Ink Facebook page.
