I'm looking for a new pair of Gap jeans that are fitted but not too skinny. What's the difference between various denim fits?

It's important to know the different types of denim fit so you can choose Gap jeans that fit well without being too tight.

• The Modern Fit is a classic choice for a tight but comfortable fit. It has a smooth shape through the hips and thighs without being too tight, and the ankles taper just a bit.

• The Girlfriend Fit, on the other hand, has a mid-rise, a loose fit, and a gentle taper from the knee down, so it gives you both a fitted look and room to move. If you'd rather have a shorter length, the Girlfriend Ankle is similar to the Girlfriend Fit but has a shorter hemline.

• The Straight Fit is great for people who want a more relaxed fit. It has a classic straight-leg cut and is comfortable down the leg, making it perfect for people who like a casual look.

• The Boyfriend Relaxed fit, on the other hand, has a looser fit than the Girlfriend style. The legs are more relaxed, and the ankle is slightly cuffed.
