Regular, Petite, and Tall Sizes: Banana Republic High-Rise Bootcut Jeans, $80 (Originally $120)
I don’t care about basketball, but I do care about what Kylie Jenner wears to watch it. Showing up to sit courtside with a navy Birkin and vintage Miu Miu mules in New York Knicks-orange is sports dressing done very right. The other part of her jumbotron-ready uniform I’m obsessed with? Those Reese Witherspoon-coded jeans.

Jenner proved Gen Z wears more than just giant jeans, rocking a pair of mid-rise bootcuts. Her dark-wash denim was fitted through the hips and thighs before flaring out slightly at the calf, an optical illusion that makes legs look like they go on for days. But that leg-lengthening effect is only half the reason you need these; unlike this season’s very casual wide-leg and baggy styles, these jeans feel surprisingly elevated.
So if they’re not in your wardrobe yet, I found seven bootcut jeans you can grab right now—and they’re all under $100 (you’re welcome).

These $40 jeans from Amazon are a great way to get Jenner’s look for less. The color is nearly identical—a dark blue with subtle fading—and they have the same snug fit through the hips and thighs. They’re also quite stretchy, which is something I appreciate in a slim-fitting jean.
Bootcut regular jeans H&M
These $30 jeans from H&M are the most affordable. They’ve got some comfortable stretch and, like Jenner’s, are mid-rise. And while this vintage-inspired wash gets you her look, they’re also available in a chic indigo color.
Levi's 94 Baggy Bootcut Jeans
While bootcut jeans tend to be more fitted, this option from Levi’s is designed with a baggier fit; as a comfort-first girl, I’m very into that. You still get that leg-lengthening effect, but with a touch more room through the hips and thighs.
Below, shop four more under-$100 bootcut styles, including a cotton-blend Banana Republic pair (in case you prefer your denim a little more structured), as well as a pair designed for hourglass figures.
