As liberating as it is to live all day in sandals and shorts , nothing beats the magic of denim season. Men's jeans offer support and protection that most pants can't match, but prices continue to rise. Thankfully, Banana Republic —one of the most sought-after destinations for stretchy but rugged jeans—just marked down a shopper-favorite pair, and it's nearly $100 off.

Banana Republic's Straight Traveler Jean 2.0 is now on sale for just $40—69% off the normal $130 price. Part of the brand's storied Traveler collection , these jeans have maintained a near-perfect rating after 45 votes from shoppers who say they're "super comfortable" and "hold their shape" after continuous wear. They're currently on sale at this price in three great dark washes and are still available in waist sizes 29 to 40 with three inseam length options.

These straight-fit jeans feature a comfortable medium rise up top and a straight taper down toward the ankle, offering an aesthetic suitable for everyday wear, business casual offices, date nights, and more. They're made from a cotton-polyester blend that includes a little Tencel modal for softness and stretch, but not enough to make them flimsy or fragile. Two side pockets, a small utility pocket, and two back pockets add to its functionality while a zip fly makes them easy to put on.

Good jeans can be found all over, but those who have stepped into this pair of Traveler jeans from Banana Republic swear they're on the Mount Rushmore of denim. "Nice rugged jeans," as one shopper put it. "The best jeans for men I have found. They fit perfectly and feel great." Another shopper agreed, saying, "The quality of Banana Republic's jeans is unmatched. I bought these to replace a 20-year-old pair that just gave out…These jeans fit perfectly."

Other shoppers noted that Banana Republic's straight-leg jeans offer a Goldilocks-type fit. "The perfect straight fit," a shopper said. "I've ordered straight-fit jeans from so many other brands with no luck. These are perfect…Not tapered, not wide-legged, not high-waisted straight, just straight fit. The added stretch is (as always) really nice too. It's not too stretchy but definitely not too rigid."

It might be hot today, but denim weather is right around the corner, so it's worth scooping up a pair of Banana Republic's Traveler Jeans while they're just $40. Make sure to grab your size soon, though, because styles like this tend to sell out quickly once they go on sale.
