Colours / Options
Noppies Straight Leg Jeans are currently available in stone wash / dark wash ranging from size XXSmall (UK6) to XXLarge (UK18). Inside leg – 32 inches but these are also available in a longer version.
These over the bump jeans from Noppies have a straight leg that is ideal to wear with a pair of boots underneath. They are great for day to day wear or could be dressed up for evening.
Noppies Straight Leg Maternity Jeans Material
98% cotton 2% elastane
The first thing you notice about these jeans is that they feel really soft and smooth to the touch. The high cotton content means they are not sweaty. The fabric and stretch of these jeans (provided by the elastane) makes them considerably more comfortable than others I have tried and we all know comfort is a high priority factor in pregnancy!
Noppies Straight Leg Maternity Jeans - The Fit
The straight leg of these jeans makes them easy to wear, with boots or with your favourite flats and I was pleased to find they were long enough to wear with a heel if I felt brave enough.
The jeans feature internal waistband adjusters to help you get a great fit which would make them wearable much earlier in pregnancy giving them more longevity than other jeans on the market. However, I think the bump panel might be a bit baggy if you wore them too early.
I am a huge fan of “over the bump” jeans, I had some “under the bump jeans” in my first pregnancy and found they just tended to fall down. Of course this is personal preference but I love the way over the bump clothes support and hug my bump. Unfortunately the bump panel in these jeans is not what I would call “over the bump” at all. My favourite jeans have a panel which comes right over the top of my bump and sits an inch or so below my bra, which I think is about right. The panel on the Noppies jeans only just reaches my belly button. Whilst it is a lovely smooth stretchy fabric and hugs your bump I would say it is more of a generous “under the bump” than a genuine “over the bump” panel.
Noppies Straight Leg Maternity Jeans - Special Features
The jeans have belt loops, pocket details and a button fasten at the waist which makes them feel more like “normal” jeans. On a personal level, I found this spoilt the line of the jeans, and made them less flattering.
Noppies Straight Leg Maternity Jeans Conclusion
The Noppies Straight Leg Maternity Jeans are a practical, comfortable, great quality pair of jeans. They can be dressed up or down which of course only increases their value in your wardrobe. However they might not be for you if you want a true “over the bump” pair of jeans to see you through your pregnancy, they’d be a good starting point for early to middle pregnancy as long as you have a relatively petite bump.
