Story & heritage
AG’s brand history notes that Samuel Ku introduced the company’s boyfriend style of jeans after becoming creative director in 2008. The Ex-Boyfriend is the modern expression of that idea: a slouchy, relaxed fit from hip to knee that tapers enough to stay flattering.
The official product page describes this pair as washed down and faded to mimic a genuine vintage jean, giving the relaxed silhouette the worn-in character it needs.
Materials & craft
AG lists 10 oz. Daytripper Stretch Denim, a lightweight fabrication. The wash is deliberately faded and vintage-looking; the cut keeps a mid-rise waist, relaxed upper leg and a tapered opening so the boyfriend fit does not overwhelm the frame.
How to choose & style
Wear Ex-Boyfriend when the point is ease. Cuff it with loafers or sandals, or contrast the slouch with a tailored jacket; the tapered opening keeps it from becoming a wide-leg jean.
