Nudie Jeans just phased out all its womens' skinny jeans, and now I'm at a loss for finding non-fast fashion brands that actually fit, so I thought I'd check here.

Some things I'm looking for:

-Has a 34" or 33" inseam -Doesn't fade within a year -Has blue and black options -Not mens' jeans

If you can help a geriatric late-twenties millennial who refuses to get with the times, I'd be really grateful lol.

Levi’s and G-Star brands both have good quality models of skinny jeans for tall women :)

These will do nicely! Thank you, razorcandy.

Prana jeans might fit the bill. Their Carlsbad straight leg is pretty good. You'd have to check the sizes. I've had some jeans for 8+ years from them.

Counterintuitive, but do they make skinny jeans without elastane? I've seen people complain about elastane blends greatly reducing the longevity of the pants

Naked and Famous does hemming for free and are great quality jeans for relatively reasonable prices.
