How to style brown jeans is something we’ve been pondering recently. Darker denim tones come into their own this time of year, and as chocolate hues are an autumn/winter fashion trend for the third year running, it seems only right to slot it between the indigo, black and grey jeans we have on rotation anyway.
Our initial reservations on wearing brown jeans? Looking like we’ve raided our granddad’s wardrobe, of course. But we think we’ve nailed it.
How to wear brown jeans, answered:
1. As part of an all-brown outfit
As aforementioned, chocolate is a trending colour in the fashion sphere, and wearing a top-to-toe look is actually one of the easiest ways to do it. Think of it in the same way you would an all-black outfit and it becomes way less daunting.

2. With pink knitwear
Miu Miu’s Fall 2025 ready-to-wear runway exhibited a few looks that played with browns and pinks, and it’s all we’ve been able to think about since. It’s the colour combo we never knew we needed.

3. Accented with burgundy
As brown is a neutral, there are few colours that clash with it – so going wrong is harder than you’d think thankfully. There are colours that complement it especially, though, one of which is burgundy; an equally-rich hue that’ll bring out its warmth.

4. With a white T-shirt and trainers
It sounds basic, and it is, but it works. When all else fails or you don’t feel like being particularly creative, your best T-shirt and favourite fashion trainers come in clutch – no differently to how you’d style the other pairs of jeans in your collection really.

5. Paired with a rugby top
Rugby shirts are trending too, so why not tick them both off together? The coffee tone of these Levi’s jeans pairs perfectly with the navy and greige stripes of this knitted polo from H&M.
