Good American Best Picks 2026: 6 Best Sellers to Buy First, From Palazzo Jeans to Bodysuits
Every closet has one pair that never stays in the laundry basket for long. You wash it on Sunday and it's back on by Monday, because it goes with every top you own and you never have to think about it. Finding that pair is the whole point of buying good jeans.
Good American makes the search shorter than you'd think. The Los Angeles label keeps a Best Sellers collection on its US store, and almost everything in it is denim. We went through it in October 2026, checked prices and which sizes were actually in stock, and picked six pieces worth buying first, each for a different need. No made-up rankings: every pick carries the brand's own Best Seller label.
Who This List Is For
- You're new to Good American and don't know which of its many fits to try first.
- You need your size in stock, including plus sizes.
- You want one non-denim piece that works with the jeans.
Pick 1: For an Hourglass Wide Leg — Soft Tech Patch Pocket Good Waist Palazzo Jeans ($178)
This is the jean built around a defined waist and one long, unbroken line. It's high-rise and fitted through the hip before falling into a wide, floor-skimming leg with a 33.5" inseam, so it works with a heeled boot as well as a sneaker. It's cut from Soft Tech, Good American's super-stretch denim (93% cotton, 5% T400, 2% Lycra), with a gap-proof waistband and reinforced belt loops.
The practical reason to start here: when we checked, the dark Indigo511 wash was in stock in every size from 00 to 24 Plus, plus 30 Plus, which isn't true of every Best Seller.
Buy this if you like a defined waist and a wide leg that reads dressy.
Pick 2: For a Size That Moves With You — Always Fits Good Legs Flare Jeans ($168)
Always Fits is Good American's "one-size-fits-four" denim: you buy a band (00–4, 6–12, 14–18 Plus or 20–26 Plus) rather than a single number, and the fabric has what the brand calls 100% stretch. This version is mid-rise, hugs the hips and thighs, then opens into a flare below the knee, with a 33.5" inseam and a dark blue wash. All four bands were in stock.
A dark-wash flare is one of the easiest jean shapes to dress up or down: put it under a blazer for work, or a tee and a leather jacket on the weekend.
Buy this if your size changes through the month or you're between sizes.
Pick 3: For a Black Jean That Goes Out — Never Fade Good Legs Flare Jeans ($148)
Every wardrobe needs one black jean that can stand in for trousers. This one is part of the Never Fade line, in a form-fitting mid-rise flare that the brand calls its sculpting jean, made from super-stretch denim with a 33.5" inseam. At $148, it's also the lowest-priced jean on this list.
Wear it with a bodysuit and heels for dinner, or a chunky knit and boots for errands. The care label is simple: wash inside out on cold, then air dry flat or hang dry. The regular length was in stock from 0 to 24 Plus when we checked, while the Long length was almost entirely sold out.
Buy this if you want a black flare for nights out and dressier days.
Pick 4: For an Easy, Slouchy Weekend — Vintage Low Loose Jeans ($158)
If skinny and sculpted aren't your thing, this is the other side of the brand. The Vintage Low Loose sits low on the hip with a super-relaxed, slouchy leg and a semi-ground hem. It's comfort-stretch denim (99% cotton, 1% elastane), so it looks and feels closer to classic rigid jeans, with a 32" inseam.
A styling tip from the product page: the model is a size 0 wearing a 4 for an oversized fit, so sizing up is how Good American gets that baggy look. Sizes 00 to 20 Plus were in stock; 22 Plus and up were sold out.
Buy this if you want a relaxed, vintage-looking jean for Saturdays.
Pick 5: For the Top Under Everything — The Sculpting Modern Long Sleeve Bodysuit ($89)
Every jean above looks sharper with a top that doesn't bunch at the waist. This crew-neck bodysuit is made from Good American's double-knit compression stretch fabric (80% nylon, 20% elastane), which the brand describes as smoothing and sculpting. It's 28" from the shoulder with thong coverage, and it comes in sizes XS to 5XL; in black, everything but 2XL was in stock.
Care is hand wash cold or dry clean. One return rule to know: bodysuits must come back with the hygiene strip still attached, so try it on with the strip in place.
Buy this if you want one sleek top that works with every pair on this list.
Pick 6: For Days Off From Denim — The Pull On Trouser ($138)
Good American calls this its modern take on suiting: a relaxed, mid-rise wide-leg trouser with an elastic waist, working pockets and a floor-skimming 32.5" inseam. It looks like tailoring and pulls on like a sweatpant. The product page shows it on a size 0 model in XS and a size 14 model in XL, which helps you picture the fit.
It's dry clean only, and sizes XS to 1XL were in stock in black, with 2XL and 3XL sold out.
Buy this if you want one polished pant for the office that's as easy as your jeans.

Before You Check Out
Use the stretch level as your guide: super stretch and Always Fits are the most forgiving, while comfort-stretch Vintage denim behaves more like classic jeans. Returns and exchanges must be requested within 14 days of the date your order shipped, not the day it arrives. Exchanges and returns for store credit are free; refunds to your card carry a $6 restocking fee at a Happy Returns bar or $9 with a UPS label. Final Sale items and anything 50% off or more can't be returned, and Premium Shipping Protection is added at checkout automatically unless you remove it.
The Bottom Line
The Good American Best Sellers list is mostly jeans for a reason. Start with the fit that matches how you dress: the Soft Tech palazzo for a sculpted wide leg, Always Fits if your size moves, the Never Fade black flare for nights out, or the Vintage Low Loose for weekends. Add the bodysuit, and the Pull On Trouser if you need one pant that isn't denim. Then check our Good American deals page for the current offer before you buy.
