Translating a trend for the wee set isn’t as easy as shrinking a pattern. Gap’s new product piggybacks off its adult counterpart, 1969 denim. The overall goal was to make the kids’ denim look more like the adult product. The similarities: Gap lined the inside of the waistband with blue oxford-shirt-type material, added a blue rivet near the right front pocket and the same detailing on the back pockets.
There are a few differences. For example, the “top block”—the top half of the pant covering the area from the waist to about the thighs—of the baby version needs to allow room for a diaper, so it takes up an astonishing half the pant. Other Gap jeans feature inseam snaps for easier diaper changing, but not the skinny styles.
