Signs it’s about to be summer: Latte lovers switch to iced coffee, berries look plumper than ever, and all-white ’fits become the norm.

(Whoever said you should only wear white the weeks between Memorial Day and Labor Day?)

White jeans can look supremely chic in the winter with a striped turtleneck and black coat; during the warmer months, all you need is a simple white T-shirt and some comfy walking sandals or summer sneakers to feel put together.
As versatile as white pants can be, they may also just be the most elusive denim style to nail.
Not all shades are created equally, which is why focusing on features—in addition to the wash—is key to finding the perfect pair for you.
Inseam length, high or low rise, and leg style (straight, wide, cropped, flared) are all things worth taking into consideration when shopping your go-to denim brands.
Ahead, we’ve rounded up 10 of our favorite white pairs that we can’t live without.

1/10 Agolde ’90s Crop Midrise Loose Straight Jeans
Agolde’s ’90s crop is a personal favorite—I own about four pairs of this exact style (including the white denim) since even though the name says “cropped,” it’s actually the perfect ankle jean for my 5’1″ frame.
More about the fit and wash: They’re a true shade of white and sit just a bit higher on the hips if you’re petite (they’d be midrise otherwise), with a straight-leg opening.
The 100% organic cotton is midweight as well, and the style (as is the case with most Agolde denim) runs slightly larger, so size down for a snugger fit that’ll loosen fast.
Size range: 23–24
Inseam: 24.75″
Type of denim: Midweight, nonstretch

2/10 Levi’s 501 Crop Jeans
You know 501s, you love 501s—Levi’s most iconic denim style gets reimagined every year in a new shade of white (since it always sells out, obviously).
The current iteration? This creamy situation with subtle distressing, a button-fly, and the standard five-pocket design.
The 25.5″ is on the more cropped side if you’re taller, a great ankle length if you’re 5’3″ an.
