We’ve talked a lot on the blog about the best jeans for men, and namely, about how the good folks at NYC-based Mott and Bow are making some of the best men’s jeans for fall. That trend isn’t likely to die down anytime soon, as the brand continues to offer up an array of fits (from Straight to Slim and Skinny) at agreeable prices for some of the best men’s jeans, and in an array of washes and fabrics. And there’s never been a better time to upgrade your rotation of versatile, go-anywhere men’s jeans. Whether you’re returning to the office in business casual style, where dark blue jeans wear nicely with a crisp Oxford shirt and a tan herringbone blazer, or whether you’re on the hunt for laidback holiday attire, Mott and Bow has you covered. Holiday attire, you say? Yes indeed, and that’s where the Mott and Bow Mosco Jeans enter the fray.

There’s no denying the applying of a classic, crisp pair of blue jeans, especially in one of the brand’s agreeable fits (even the Straight-cut jeans at Mott and Bow are more tailored, not baggy). And the Mott and Bow Mosco Jeans exemplify perhaps the dictionary definition of an ideal pair of jeans, seeing as they’re made with 98 percent cotton and 2 percent stretch, yet delivered in a deep, dark wash. This makes the Mott and Bow Mosco Jeans uniquely dressy among other pairs of denim, and that’s only the tip of the iceberg as to what makes ’em so essential.

For starters, the Mott and Bow Mosco Jeans are about as timeless as it gets in terms of the denim itself and the detailing. The fabric should break in nicely over time, yet it’ll feel comfortable right out of the box thanks to that hint of stretch. These aren’t a pair of stiff selvedge jeans, and while there’s a time and a place for those, it’s sometimes nice to step into comfortable stretch denim without missing a beat — the Mott and Bow Mosco Jeans are the right way to go, folks. And the contrasting gold stitching, which also calls to mind timeless Levi’s jeans, is another small touch that makes these visually appealing when worn anywhere from the office (remember, business casual!) to a holiday party — ideally, paired up with a Mott and Bow merino wool sweater.

Because of the tailored, smart fit and easy-to-wear stretch, the Mott and Bow Mosco Jeans are cut out for holiday gatherings (best paired with a cozy shawl cardigan and stylish leather dress boots) and even a day on the road, if you feel like stepping things up a notch. And naturally, the Mott and Bow Mosco Jeans have another thing going for ’em: They’re priced at $96, a downright steal if you’re searching for premium jeans without the premium price tag. Plus, Mott and Bow offers free home try-on and delivery, another bonus if you want to test out multiple pairs in multiple colors. The next time you get dressed for a winter occasion, consider jeans from Mott and Bow — you might be surprised at how much you enjoy them.
