American Eagle's Low-Rise Baggy Ultra-Wide Leg Jean is the pick if you want the widest possible leg. AE lists a 26" leg opening, the largest we found in this comparison, with an 11" low rise and a baggy, relaxed leg. The fabric is lightweight with some stretch, and AE labels the style Dreamy Drape. The list price is $89.95, and it was 40% off at $53.97 when we checked on November 13, 2026. AE has extended holiday returns through February 1, 2027. The product page shows a 4.8 out of 5 average from 27 reviews, with fit ratings leaning slightly small. The main limit is the rise: this is a low-rise jean, so shoppers who want a waist-defining high rise should pick Everlane or Old Navy instead.
