The pants boast a high-waisted Nime structure and the overall look highlights a sense of ruggedness as it results in a worn-in look. The pants are all made to be a wide cut with a subtly tapered closure at the bottom to deliver relaxed silhouettes overall. The pants are constructed from repurposed cotton materials and are durable yet soft due to the aged process of the materials. The [retro design themes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jnco) are further reinforced by the small cinch buckle at the back for more adjustments. The patchwork accents feature [denim patches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anatomic-denim), acid-dyed patches, floral embroidery, smiley faces, and more.
