Over the past few weeks, for a few different reasons, I’ve been ruthlessly decluttering my wardrobe – scaling back on items that I’ve just got too many of. Today, 23 scarves went to the charity shop – eek! Skinny jeans were another item I had in abundance. In my pursuit of the perfect skinny jean, I had a double figure collection. But not anymore – I’ve found my perfect pair and I’m down to a total of 4 (skinnies that is…I’m not including the coloured/boyfriend/straight/patterned ones!)
When I put on these Replay Hyperflex Skinny Jeans at the launch day in Victoria Square a couple of weeks back, I was blown away. Just the right rise, with a real ‘spanx’ effect but a thick enough denim so that they don’t show every lump and bump. If all that wasn’t enough, the colour is perfect – dark but not a flat navy rinse that can make jeans look too much like trousers.
I decided to hold off blogging about these jeans until I’d put the comfort & shape-holding claims to the test. I’ve worn these jeans for 10 days over the past 2 weeks and I have to say, I’m blown away by how stretchy and flexible they are – akin to a jegging style trouser. But most impressively, they have held their shape. Do you know when your skinnies have just been through the wash and you wear them for the first time straight out of the drier? It’s like they’ve pinged back into shape again and they feel lovely and supportive. Well, that’s exactly how it feels putting on these Replay jeans every single day….without any laundering. That has to be a win/win.
Thanks to the team at Replay for inviting me along – Replay Hyperflex jeans are available online here and in Replay stores.

UPDATE – forgot to talk about sizing! So I fitted into the 28 in these. I’d say the sizing is similar to Gap. My other Replay jeans are a 30 or 31 I think! The leg is 32 but seems long so I’ve taken mine up a couple of inches. There is a size 30 leg available but they weren’t there on the day I was in.
