Justin Bieber doesn’t play by anyone’s style rules but his own. When you see a Bieber fit, it’s a definitively Bieber fit—probably very baggy, very casual, very dope. Highly likely to be styled with a pair of bug-eyed sunglasses, maybe a hoodie contrasting the chic mini dress Hailey Bieber is most probably wearing next to him. The singer knows what works for him, and the latest piece to get his seal of street style approval is a brand-new pair of Agolde jeans.
The brand, known for their chic women’s silhouettes, is finally entering the men’s space to bring fresh styles to men’s denim, and Bieber wasted no time trying out a pair. Out and about with Hailey Bieber on a date night in NYC, he paired the Otto Carpenter Jeans in Drab with the perfect neutral color palette: an oversized, off-white button-down, clean white sunglasses and crisp white shoes, and a Holden Caulfield-esque brown hat.
The Otto Carpenter Jeans are heavyweight and baggy—making them a definitive streetwear staple. With five pockets and a faded wash, you can style them à la Bieber, with an all-baggy silhouette, or, take them up a notch and wear your favorite sweater or a nice blazer and some loafers. Anything goes, really—and with any pair of jeans, that’s how things should be.
If the faded eggshell wash isn’t your style but the oversized fit is, fear not. Agolde has the same Otto Carpenter style in classic denim washes, including a dark and medium blue. (The latter pair perfectly with whatever color sneakers you have, by the way.) Take a page out of Bieber’s book: snag some new jeans, throw on the freshest fit you have, and head out for a night on the town.
