The Aero High Waisted Jegging is the highest rise in the pool and one of two jeans here where stretch is listed. The skinny fit targets a close-to-leg shape, and the women's-specific listing makes the intended audience explicit.

The Aero HW Uniform Jegging is the second stretch listing in the pool and the only black wash with a stretch label. The HW in the name suggests a high-waisted silhouette, but the product data does not state the rise, so this pick stays focused on what is confirmed: black, skinny, and stretch.

Why these made the list
The pool for this guide is the current set of 7 Aeropostale jeans that match the brand filter. Because the pool holds fewer than 12 listings, every entry is included as a pick rather than shortlisting a subset. We compared each listing by the fit, rise, wash or color, and stretch fields stated in the product data. When a field is missing, the guide says 'not stated by the seller' instead of guessing. The prices on the page are live and read from the retail listing at the time the page loads, so no price comparisons appear in the text. No unit was purchased, worn, or tested by us. The recommendations are based only on the stated specifications and the maker's published listing information.
Things to weigh before buying
Fit: match the leg shape to your preference
Fit labels in this pool are Bootcut or flare, Skinny, Wide leg, and Relaxed. Three entries are Bootcut or flare: the two Aero Mid Rise Bootcut Jeans and the Women's Mid Rise Flare Jean. Two entries are Skinny: the High Waisted Jegging and the Aero HW Uniform Jegging. One is Wide leg, and one is Relaxed; the Relaxed Straight Jean uses the Relaxed fit label with a straight-leg shape in its name. If you want the loosest silhouette, the wide-leg and relaxed entries are the only ones in their categories.
Rise: low, mid, high, or unstated
The High Waisted Jegging is the only listing with a High rise spec. Three listings are Mid rise: the two Aero Mid Rise Bootcut Jeans and the Women's Mid Rise Flare Jean. The Low-Rise Baggy Wide-Leg Jean is the only Low rise listing. The Aero HW Uniform Jegging and the Relaxed Straight Jean do not state a rise in their product data, so confirm that detail on the retail listing before ordering.
Stretch: only two listings say it
Only two of the seven entries state that the fabric has stretch: the Aeropostale Women's Aero High Waisted Jegging and the Aero HW Uniform Jegging. The other five do not mention stretch, which means the seller has not provided that fabric detail for those listings. CottonWorks, an industry resource, describes performance technologies for cotton garments, but no specific technology is confirmed for any jean in this pool.
Wash and color: black, dark, medium, light
Two entries are Black: the Aero Mid Rise Bootcut Jean in Black and the Aero HW Uniform Jegging. One entry is labeled Dark WASH: the Low-Rise Baggy Wide-Leg Jean. Two entries use Medium Wash, one uses Light WASH, and the High Waisted Jegging does not state a wash or color. Choose black or dark when you want a deeper color, and light when you want a pale blue wash.
Length and size labels: what the name tells you
The listing names carry the size of the specific unit shown: 8 Long and 2 Long for Long lengths, 10 Short and 10S for shorter lengths, 12S for the wide-leg jean, and 36 32 for the relaxed straight jean. The High Waisted Jegging name does not include a size. These labels describe one listed unit, not the full size range of the model.
Missing specs: what to check before ordering
Several fields are absent from the product data: stretch for five entries, rise for two entries, wash for one entry, and gender for some listings even when the name suggests a fit. When a spec is absent, this guide marks it as not stated by the seller. The final check should be on the retail listing's size chart and fabric details.
Questions
Which Aeropostale jeans in this guide have stretch?
Two of the seven listings state stretch: the Aeropostale Women's Aero High Waisted Jegging and the Aero HW Uniform Jegging. The other five entries do not state whether the fabric is stretch. If stretch is essential, start with those two listings and confirm the size, rise, and wash details on the retail listing.
What is the difference between bootcut and flare in these picks?
Three listings share the fit label Bootcut or flare: the two Aero Mid Rise Bootcut Jeans and the Women's Mid Rise Flare Jean. The flare jean's name calls out a flare leg opening, while the bootcut names emphasize bootcut. The product data does not include leg-opening measurements, so the exact difference is not stated by the seller.
How many high-rise Aeropostale jeans are listed?
One listing is explicitly High rise: the Aeropostale Women's Aero High Waisted Jegging. Three listings are Mid rise: the two Aero Mid Rise Bootcut Jeans and the Women's Mid Rise Flare Jean. One listing is Low rise: the Low-Rise Baggy Wide-Leg Jean. Rise is not stated for the Aero HW Uniform Jegging or the Relaxed Straight Jean.
What does 'not stated by the seller' mean?
Some listing fields are empty in the product data that this guide uses. For example, stretch is not stated for five of the seven jeans, rise is not stated for two, and wash is not stated for the High Waisted Jegging. This guide does not guess those values. You can check the retail listing for a size chart, fabric content, or additional product details.
Which fits are covered in this guide?
The seven listings cover four fit labels: Bootcut or flare, Skinny, Wide leg, and Relaxed. Bootcut or flare appears three times, Skinny appears twice, and Wide leg and Relaxed each appear once. The Relaxed Straight Jean pairs the Relaxed fit with a straight-leg shape in its name.
