Citizens of Humanity Horseshoe Jeans Review
In an effort to branch out from my usual denim styles I decided to do something crazy and take a chance on the Citizens of Humanity Horseshoe Jeans. I blame it on Instagram, of course. I saw one too many fashionistas rocking this unique pair of jeans and I thought I could maybe pull them off too. These jeans are definitely a far cry from anything I currently have in my closet but turns out – I love them! Below I’ve styled them for spring/summer and fall/winter!
Citizens of Humanity Horseshoe Jeans Review
The CoH Horseshoe jeans feature a curved, wide leg silhouette which tapers slightly to raw, cropped hem. They come in several washes and I picked up the Savahn wash because I liked the laid-back, casual vibe. As you can see, there’s also a lot of distressing on the jeans as well as interesting stitching details.
Size and Fit
I’d never tried Citizens of Humanity denim so I ordered based off their size chart. I’m a size 6 in bottoms and my waist measurement was around 28″ inches so I ordered the size 28. However, I would say that my usual denim size is a 27. The sizing notes do mention that the fit of these jeans is supposed to be relaxed. The size 28 fits me but it is a relaxed fit. I’m used to wearing my jeans really tight around the waist so the size 28 feels loose to me. I’m sure I could also fit in the size 27 – probably even the 26!
If you want them relaxed you can take your size based on the size chart. And if you want a regular fit you can take a size down from the size chart. These jeans are also 100% cotton so they will relax over time as well.
*I ended up buying these jeans again in the size 27 because I wanted a tighter fit. I think the size 27 is perfect – tighter but not too tight. I do think these jeans are supposed to be worn relaxed so you don’t want a skin tight fit.
How to Style Horseshoe Jeans
Horseshoe jeans with a boxy crop top
The light wash, baggy style, and distressing makes these a perfect jean for spring. I’m not afraid to pair these baggy jeans with a loose top. I love this cropped button down shirt because the boxy shape creates a nice silhouette. I also love Freda Salvador Fisherman sandals with these jeans.

Horseshoe Jeans with a Tank Top
As you can see, I’m drawn to a black/white styling for these jeans! In this look I’m wearing a fitted tank top to emphasize these fun jeans. Again, I paired them with my fisherman sandals because they are just so comfortable! I added this cute checked bag which I think really finishes off the look.
Horseshoe Jeans with oversized sweater
My favorite way to wear this denim so far is with oversized sweaters. I wore my Jenni Kayne Cabin Sweater and Cotton Fisherman Sweater and I loved both outfits.
Since the weather is still chilly, I wear my Citizens of Humanity Horseshoe Jeans with my Freda Salvador BROOKE Boots! Get 15% off your Freda purchase w/code ’15JESSICA’. But I think these jeans will look good with sandals or heels.

I thought I would feel self-conscious wearing these admittedly crazy jeans. They are literally shaped like cowboy chaps…lol. But I actually feel really cool and comfortable! I wore these on a recent flight to Los Angeles and got compliments from a stranger on how chic and comfortable my outfit was. I liked this style so much that I decided to order another pair of Citizens of Humanity denim – the Ayla Baggy Cuffed Crop jeans.

Where to Buy Citizens of Humanity Horseshoe Jeans
Now, these are a higher price point than all of my other denim. Honestly, they are overpriced so if you can wait for a sale I would recommend that. Luckily, CoH denim is sold at a bunch of different retailers so you have a higher chance of getting some on sale. I ordered the first pair from Shopbop and my second pair from Anthropologie – both on sale! I’ve also bought CoH jeans on sale at Bloomingdales. Citizens of Humanity jeans are also available at Revolve and Net-a-Porter.
