In my seemingly never-ending quest to find the perfect pair of jeans, I decided to investigate the CBK hype, and went straight to the source: AKA, Calvin Klein’s SoHo flagship in NYC. Calvin Klein isn’t just a brand Carolyn worked for; it’s the label she most famously turned to for the effortless, minimalist uniform that defined her. I wanted to see if the ’90s Straight Jean, a pair many claim were her personal holy grail, could actually live up to the decades of myth-making.
