My husband loves these and it's the only type he'll wear.  Yes it's true they are not exactly straight cut and I have no idea what Lucky's were like before we got this style for him, not that long ago.  He has thick legs so this cut works for him.  He doesn't usually buy straight leg jeans and apparently Lucky shouldn't have labeled these as such.  Other than the mislabeling these are really soft, great quality jeans.  I'll be buying him more of these as soon as they go on sale.

UPDATE: Came back recently for another pair (during a really great sale.  My husband said he still likes these a lot.  He likes the relaxed fit style, and the feel of this particular denim.
