Boot Cut vs Straight Leg
The leg shape decides how a jean sits over your boots.
- Boot cut flares slightly from the knee to sit over the shaft of a western or work boot.
- Straight leg runs the same width from knee to hem for a cleaner line.
- Relaxed fit gives more room through the seat and thigh for riding.
Jeans for Riding
Western riders often prefer longer jeans that stay down over the boot when the knee is bent. Look for flat inside seams to reduce rubbing in the saddle, and a little stretch for comfort.
For English riding, men's breeches are usually more comfortable.
What to Wear With Them
Pair jeans with boots from western boots or work boots, a shirt from riding shirts and a layer from men's jackets.
For tack, see stock and western tack. Women's styles are in women's jeans.

Frequently Asked Questions
What length jeans should I buy for riding?
Riders usually choose a longer leg than they would for walking, because the hem rides up when the knee bends in the saddle. A jean that stacks slightly over the boot when standing will usually sit at the right length when mounted. Check the inside leg measurement in the size guide.
Are stretch jeans good for riding?
A small amount of stretch makes jeans more comfortable in the saddle, because they move with you when you mount and bend your knees. Rigid denim is tougher and holds its shape longer but can feel stiff at first. Many riders choose a stretch blend for riding and rigid denim for yard work.
What is the difference between Ariat M1 and M4 jeans?
Ariat uses fit numbers to describe each cut. The M1 is a slimmer fit with a lower rise, while the M4 is a relaxed fit with a low rise and more room through the seat and thigh. Leg shapes such as boot cut and straight leg are offered within each fit.
