We found styles at Nordstrom, Quince, and more
Cropped jeans are having a full-on moment this summer, and Mandy Moore is the latest celeb to give them a spotlight.
The actress recently spent a family day at Universal Studios Hollywood, and she wore the exact mom-approved outfit I’d opt for, too — a wide-leg pair of cropped jeans with a simple T-shirt and comfy sneakers. Personal stylist Sydney Woy previously told PEOPLE that the shorter crop creates "a less-heavy feeling than full-length denim," while making it easy to pair the pants with everything from sneakers to sandals.
If you're ready to add a pair to your summer rotation, I found similar styles at Amazon, Quince, Nordstrom, and more for up to 72 percent off.

Grapent Straight-Leg Cropped Jeans
$37 at Amazon
At first glance, these jeans look like classic denim, but they are so much easier to wear than traditional styles. The cotton-blend fabric has enough stretch to move with you, while the relaxed cropped leg creates airflow for long days in the heat — whether you're at a theme park like Moore or running errands around town. One “curvy” shopper said the jeans "hold up in the thigh area," noting the fabric doesn't wear thin where their legs touch when walking.
Quince Bella Stretch Wide-Leg Cropped Jeans
$50 at Quince.com
I have these cropped jeans in faded black, and they've become one of my go-to pairs for year-round wear. The front patch pockets create a smooth waistline, and the soft organic cotton has enough stretch to bend, sit, and move comfortably without the waistband digging in.
Joe’s High-Waist Cropped Wide-Leg Jeans
$218 $60 at Nordstromrack.com
You know how some jeans just seem to fit like they were made for you? That's always been the case with Joe's Jeans for me. I've been wearing the brand for well over a decade and have bought several pairs from Nordstrom Rack. This cropped wide-leg style is made from lightweight denim that feels especially suited for summer, with a leg-lengthening high waist and relaxed shape.
