Stacked pants

Stacking is a term used to describe the length of pants. Stacked pants are long enough to sit on the shoes with some gathering to create a bend in the fabric. The stacked sweatpants and stacked denim jeans take this trend to the extreme with extra long inseams to create a lot of bunching above the shoes.

What is the difference between stacked pants vs. rolled pants?

Rolling is what most people mean when they say they are "cuffing their jeans." A rolled hem is usually turned up twice at the maximum because otherwise, the roll can look too bulky. Stacked jeggings and other types of stacked pants mean the fabric is bunching up above the shoes. While this was once seen as a lazy trend, the fashion and music industries have made the look very fashion-forward. In order to stack skinny jeans, the inseam must be on the longer side, allowing the wearer to scrunch up excess fabric above the shoes. This looks best with high-ankle booties or high -op sneakers. Additionally, stacked jeans should always be pre-washed to avoid having any indigo dye from the jeans rub off on the shoes.

How do you style stacked jeans?

There are lots of different ways to style stacked jeans. Skinny stacked jeans can be worn with a long coat or sweater. Wear stacked leather pants with a fitted long-sleeve top and gold jewelry. Stacked cargo pants can be paired with hoodies and a bomber jacket looks great with patterned pants. There are so many ways to style these pants, but most importantly just wear whatever feels the most comfortable.

Are there benefits to stacked pants?

There are a few benefits to stacked pants. From an aesthetic perspective, stacked joggers break up the flow from the pants to the shoes. For people with really long legs, this can balance out the proportions of an outfit. This trend also shows off more of the shoes worn. Plus, by stacking pants, people can avoid paying a tailor to hem their pants, while also following a fun trend.
