New Red Button Jeans: Which Style Is Right for You?

Red Button at Dotique

A good pair of jeans should feel comfortable, fit properly and work with the clothes you already own. That is exactly why Red Button jeans have become such a favourite with our customers at Dotique.


The Dutch brand is known for soft stretch denim, comfortable waistbands and shapes that are designed to be worn in real life. This season, we have welcomed four key Red Button styles: Cayla, Caitlina, Colette and Conny.


Although some of the shapes share similar features, each one fits and falls slightly differently. Whether you want a modern barrel leg, a classic wide leg, a shorter inside leg or a darker alternative to blue denim, this guide will help you decide which new Red Button jeans are right for you.

Red Button Cayla Jeans: The Clean Barrel Leg

The Red Button SRB5091 Cayla Dark Blue Jeans are a simple way to introduce a barrel-leg shape into your wardrobe.


Cayla sits high on the waist and has a regular fit before falling into a fuller, curved leg. The barrel shape creates room through the thigh and gently draws back in towards the ankle. This gives the jeans a contemporary silhouette without making them feel overly exaggerated.


The classic five-pocket design keeps the overall look clean, while the dark-blue denim makes Cayla easy to wear with pieces you already own. The 28-inch inside leg gives the jeans a slightly cropped finish, depending on your height.


They look particularly good with trainers, loafers and ankle boots. Add a simple shirt or fitted knit to balance the volume through the leg, or wear them with a relaxed jumper for an easy weekend outfit.

Cayla at a glance

  • High-rise waist
  • Regular fit
  • Barrel-leg shape
  • Classic five-pocket design
  • Dark-blue stretch denim
  • 28-inch inside leg
  • 95% cotton, 4% polyester and 1% elastane

Choose Cayla if: you want a clean, uncomplicated barrel-leg jean with a shorter length and no additional pocket detailing.

Red Button Caitlina Jeans: The Relaxed Barrel Leg

The Red Button SRB5032 Caitlina Side Patch Jeans in Dark Stone are also cut in a barrel shape, but the overall look is more relaxed and utility-inspired than Cayla.


Caitlina has a high-rise waist and sits neatly at the top before curving through the leg and tapering softly towards the ankle. The side patch draw attention to the shape and give the jeans their distinctive finish.


The 29-inch inside leg is one inch longer than Cayla, while the Dark Stone wash has a softly worn appearance that works throughout the year. Wear them with a T-shirt and trainers for a casual outfit, or add a blouse, jacket and ankle boots when you want something smarter.


Because the leg is intentionally relaxed, we recommend balancing Caitlina with a top that can be tucked in fully or just at the front. This helps define the waist and allows the barrel shape to do the work.

Caitlina at a glance

  • High-rise waist
  • Relaxed fit
  • Barrel-leg shape
  • Side patch pockets
  • Dark Stone denim wash
  • 29-inch inside leg
  • 90% cotton, 9% polyester and 1% elastane

Choose Caitlina if: you like the barrel-leg trend but want a softer, more relaxed shape with visible pocket detailing.

Cayla or Caitlina: What Is the Difference?

Cayla and Caitlina are both high-rise barrel-leg jeans, but they create slightly different looks.


Cayla has a cleaner five-pocket design and a 28-inch leg. It is the more streamlined of the two and is a good starting point if you are trying barrel jeans for the first time.


Caitlina has a more relaxed shape, a 29-inch leg and distinctive side patch pockets. It feels a little more directional while remaining comfortable and easy to style.


In simple terms, choose Cayla for a clean barrel shape and Caitlina for a more relaxed barrel leg with extra detail.

Red Button Colette Jeans: The Longer Wide Leg

If you prefer a leg that falls straight and wide rather than curving towards the ankle, Colette may be the one for you.


The Red Button SRB4334 Colette Forever Blue Jeans have a high-rise waist, a regular fit through the hips and a full wide leg. Instead of tapering like Cayla and Caitlina, Colette continues down in a longer, straighter line.


The Forever Blue wash is a rich, dark denim shade that feels smart enough to wear beyond casual days. Contrast stitching break up the deep colour without making the jeans difficult to style.


One of Colette’s biggest advantages is the choice of leg length. The Forever Blue style is available in both 31-inch and 33-inch lengths, making it a particularly useful option for taller customers or anyone who wants a full-length wide-leg jean.


Wear Colette with a tucked-in blouse and boots for a smarter look, or add a soft knit and trainers for everyday wear.


Colette Forever Blue at a glance

  • High-rise waist
  • Regular fit through the waist and hips
  • Full wide leg
  • Five-pocket design 
  • Forever Blue dark denim wash
  • Contrast stitching
  • Available in 31-inch and 33-inch lengths
  • 76% cotton, 22% polyester and 2% elastane

Choose Colette if: you want a longer, full-length wide-leg jean or regularly struggle to find jeans with enough length.

Red Button Colette Black Used Jeans

The same popular Colette shape is also available in washed black.


The Red Button SRB5000 Colette Black Used Wide Leg Jeans are a useful alternative to traditional blue denim. They have the same wide-leg shape and are available in both 31-inch and 33-inch lengths.


The Black Used wash is softer than a solid jet black, so it works well with everything from bright knitwear and printed blouses to neutral shirts and jackets. It is also a good option when blue denim feels too casual but you still want the comfort of jeans.


Try them with a black boot for a longer, uninterrupted line through the leg, or add trainers and a colourful knit for daytime.

Choose Colette Black Used if: you already love a wide-leg jean and want a darker pair that can be dressed up or worn casually.

Red Button Conny Jeans: The Shorter Wide Leg

The Red Button SRB5093 Conny Forever Blue Jeans offer a similar wide-leg shape to Colette but in shorter leg lengths.


Conny has a high-rise waist and a regular fit through the waist and hips before falling into a wide leg. The contrast stitching and deep turn-up-style hem give this pair a slightly different finish from the longer Colette.


Available in 28-inch and 30-inch leg lengths, Conny is a brilliant option for customers who like the look of wide-leg jeans but find that most styles are simply too long. The Forever Blue wash gives them the same rich, dark-denim appearance that can be worn casually or styled for smarter occasions.


The turn-up hem works especially well with loafers, trainers and ankle boots. Keep the top half simple with a shirt, fine knit or neatly fitted jacket.


Conny at a glance

  • High-rise waist
  • Regular fit through the waist and hips
  • Wide-leg shape
  • Deep turn-up-style hem
  • Contrast stitching
  • Forever Blue dark denim wash
  • Available in 28-inch and 30-inch lengths
  • 76% cotton, 22% polyester and 2% elastane

Choose Conny if: you want a true wide-leg jean in a shorter length, particularly if a 31-inch leg is normally too long for you.

Conny or Colette: What Is the Difference?

Conny and Colette are the closest in terms of overall fit. Both have a high rise, a regular fit through the waist and hips, and a wide leg.


The biggest difference is length. Conny is available in 28-inch and 30-inch legs, while Colette is available in 31-inch and 33-inch legs.


The detailing is also different. Conny has a deep turn-up-style hem, whereas Colette has a more classic full-length finish with prominent pocket detailing.


If you are shorter or prefer your wide-leg jeans to finish closer to the ankle, start with Conny. If you want a longer line or need additional length, choose Colette.

How Should Red Button Jeans Fit?

Your Red Button jeans should sit comfortably at the waist without digging in or slipping down. The denim contains stretch, but it should still feel secure enough to hold its shape.


With barrel-leg styles such as Cayla and Caitlina, the extra room through the leg is intentional. Focus on getting the waist right rather than expecting the jeans to fit closely through the thigh.


With wide-leg styles such as Conny and Colette, check both the waist and the length. The correct inside leg will depend on your height, footwear and whether you prefer a cropped or full-length finish.


If you are between two styles, think about the shape you want below the hip. Barrel jeans curve out and taper back in, while wide-leg jeans fall in a straighter, fuller line towards the hem.
