Product Insights
The Casual Indigo Tapered Jean by PS Paul Smith, Paul Smith's casual diffusion line, offers a relaxed tapered cut with a full seat and thigh, a 32-inch inseam, and a leg opening of 15.5–16 inches (38–41 cm across sizes) designed for a clean drape over sneakers. Made from 99% organic cotton and 1% spandex, the denim provides ease of movement without a stretch-jean feel, is breathable with an open weave to prevent clamminess, and feels airy and soft from the first wear with no break-in period. Design details include the 40-color Signature Stripe on the pocket and a leather crest with Paul Smith's handwritten signature at the back waist. The deep indigo is best preserved by washing infrequently in cold water and hang drying, with fading appearing as broad gradients at stress points. The waist runs true to size.
Verified claims
- Fit
- Relaxed tapered cut with full seat and thigh; 32-inch inseam; leg opening 15.5–16 in.
- Sizing
- Waist runs true to size; choose usual size.
- Leg opening
- Leg opening remains about 15.5–16 inches (39–41 cm) from waist size 32 through 36, and the inseam is 32 inches, so the hem drapes cleanly over low-profile sneakers and derbies without bunching.
- Material feel
- 99% organic cotton and 1% spandex for ease of movement without stretch-jean feel.
- Brand heritage
- PS Paul Smith is Paul Smith's casual diffusion line, applying the classic-with-a-twist ethos at a more accessible price.
- Design signatures
- Features Paul Smith's 40-color Signature Stripe visible on the outside of the back pocket, a leather crest with his handwritten signature at the back waist, contrast topstitching, a zip fly, and belt loops.
- Tailoring
- Savile Row tailoring inspired a relaxed tapered fit with 1% spandex for comfort.
- Wash care
- To preserve the deep indigo, wash infrequently in cold water and hang dry.
- Break-in
- Organic cotton denim feels airy and soft from the first wear with no stiff break-in period.
- Breathability
- Breathable open-weave organic cotton prevents clamminess during all-day wear.
- Fading
- Washing infrequently in cold water minimizes fading, which appears as broad gradients at stress points.
- Seat and thigh fit
- The relaxed tapered cut pairs a full seat and thigh with a leg that narrows to the hem.
- Indigo depth
- The jean is cut in a medium-dark/deep indigo wash.
- Everyday suitability
- The jean is designed for everyday life rather than formal tailoring.
- Stretch feel
- The denim is 99% organic cotton with 1% elastane, adding light stretch and ease of movement without making the jean read as skinny or overly stretchy.
- Finish
- The jean has a clean, solid deep-blue indigo rinse with no distressing, rips, or heavy fading; the only decorative touch is the subtle colorful stripe trim on the pocket.

Compared within this brand.
| Casual Indigo Tapered Jean: Choose this if you want a relaxed jean with a roomy thigh that narrows toward the ankle, made from 99% organic cotton denim with a touch of spandex that the brand says is for added comfort. The deep indigo wash, subtle colorful pocket stripes, golden contrast stitching, and leather signature emblem at the back waist give it a casual, designer finish from PS Paul Smith's more laid-back line, offered in sizes 30 to 36. Note that the listing describes the fit as relaxed tapered while the descriptive copy calls it a wide straight-leg, so expect some ambiguity about how wide the leg reads in person.[1,2,3,4,5] | Tapered Seersucker Pant: Choose this if you want a warm-weather pant in navy seersucker with texture, since it is made of stretch organic cotton (99% cotton, 1% elastane) with a waffle finish, single pleats, front creases, slant pockets, and buttoned rear welt pockets. The merchant describes it as versatile enough for both formal and casual outfits, and it comes in sizes 28 through 36 with a fixed inseam of about 32 inches (81 cm). Note that the fabric can show minor natural wrinkling at the knees and lower legs as worn, so plan hems around the non-adjustable length.[6,7,8] |
