Wedgie jeans are a thing now and we’re actually kinda LOVING them

We have to say, before Kylie Jenner decided to don a pair of these wedgie jeans, we were a little sceptical.

Before now, when 'mom jeans' came to mind, all we thought about was our mothers coming to collect us at the school gate wearing shapeless, baggy trousers – but their new re-vamp is totally making them cool again.

The re-vamped Levi mom jean is now called the wedgie jean and we're digging them.

They're high-waisted and cinch in your tummy, while also giving your bum a little lift. How perfect.

"The Wedgie is inspired by girls [who] were downsizing a vintage 505 and wearing it very close and almost vacuum-packed to the rear-ends — hence the affectionate and cheeky name," Jonathan Cheung, senior vice president of Levi's Global Design told Mashable.

So, we kinda need a pair. But if you don't have time to head to the shops, you can buy them here.
