black jeans

Ebony denim trousers

Black jeans are denim pants dyed black rather than the traditional indigo blue.

They read as slightly dressier or edgier than blue jeans, fitting contexts from casual offices to rock concerts: She paired black jeans with a blazer for the interview.

The dye tends to fade with washing, so maintaining true black requires care.
