Re\/Done is one of the most popular premium denim brands in years. It seems like every major celebrity under 30 had a pair of these chic, butt-hugging jeans so I had to try them for myself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Re\/Done launched in 2014 with two founders: Sean Barron and Jamie Mazur. The idea was to create a selection of expertly tailored, vintage Levi\u2019s jeans for women. They wanted to take old designs and make them new again. Their first run of 300 pairs sold out immediately. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Re\/Done High-Rise Stove Pipe Jeans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, one model has stood out: the High Rise Stove Pipe Jean<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The jeans look too good to be true: they are an almost exact replica of the coveted vintage Levi\u2019s 501 jeans that everyone wants but can\u2019t seem to get their hands on. These ankle-length straight-leg jeans have a high waist and raw edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The jeans are available in 11 different washes and fabrics from places like Shopbop<\/a> and Nordstrom<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are the Re\/Done High Rise Stove Pipe jeans worth it? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Personally, I don\u2019t think these jeans are worth it. While I wanted to love the cut of these jeans, I have a few caveats with them overall which I\u2019ll explain below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Length<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While there are several versions of the Re\/Done High Rise Stove Pipe jeans including some cropped pairs, I bought the standard length version. The jean looks as if it comes down to the ankles on every e-commerce model I see these jeans on. Guess what? I\u2019m 5\u20199\u201d \u2013 about the height of a model \u2013 and I can assure you these jeans are much shorter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a tall person, it’s always frustrating when brands crop their jeans or pants too<\/em> much. While shorter women could always cut the edges off (they\u2019re raw-edge anyway), taller women are basically screwed if pants are too short! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sizing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I ordered these Re\/Done jeans in sizes 24 and 25. Since I\u2019ve had problems with jeans stretching in the past, I was hoping to fit into the 24 even if they were a little tight, but I couldn’t even button them up. So I kept the 25 and sadly, sure enough, the jeans stretched out after just a few wears. They are no longer butt-hugging and are instead baggy. I really wish Re\/Done would pre-shrink their jeans to prevent this from happening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These pants are expensive! For what you get, I\u2019m not sure why Re\/Done decided to price their jeans way above what other premium denim brands charge. The price is certainly a put-off considering the jeans will stretch out over time anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
