Denim Worth Keeping

 Good denim is one of the best investments in a wardrobe. The right pair of jeans fits your body, holds its shape, and gets better with age. At LADDER, we are selective about the denim we bring in - every style is chosen for fabric weight, fit, and how it wears over time. You will not find fast-fashion denim here.

Our denim edit works naturally alongside the rest of the LADDER collection. Pair a great straight-leg or wide-leg jean with a Frank & Eileen button-up, a relaxed women's t-shirt, or a fine knit from our sweaters collection. Add a layered necklace and the outfit is done. Browse new arrivals to see the latest denim styles in stock.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Have questions? You are at the right place.

How do you find jeans that actually fit well?

Fit in denim comes down to rise, leg opening, and fabric stretch - and the right combination is different for everyone. The most reliable way to find a pair that works is to try several cuts in person. At LADDER, our team can help narrow it down based on your body and what you already wear. It usually takes less time than you think.

What is the difference between rigid and stretch denim?

Rigid denim has no elastane - it is pure cotton and molds to your body over time rather than stretching with it. It tends to last longer and age more beautifully, developing a patina that is unique to how you wear it. Stretch denim has a small percentage of elastane added for comfort and ease of movement. Both have their place depending on how you want the jean to fit and feel day to day.

How do you style wide-leg denim?

 Wide-leg jeans follow the same principle as wide-leg trousers - balance the volume on the bottom with something more fitted on top. A tucked-in linen shirt, a close-fitting tee, or a slim knit all work well. Keep accessories simple - a gold chain necklace is enough.

Where can I shop women's denim in Cleveland?

LADDER carries curated women's denim at 20150 Walker Rd in The Van Aken District, Shaker Heights. Hours are Sunday 11AM to 5PM, Monday 10AM to 5PM, Tuesday through Thursday 10AM to 6PM, and Friday and Saturday 10AM to 7PM. You can also shop online at laddercle.com with shipping available.

How do you make denim last longer?

Wash less frequently, turn jeans inside out when you do wash them, and use cold water. Avoid the dryer when possible - air drying preserves the fabric and helps jeans hold their shape. Quality denim from independent brands also tends to hold up significantly better than fast-fashion alternatives over the long run, which is why the brands we carry at LADDER are worth the investment.
