They're pure black =D. I hated the idea of "skinny jeans" because of the thought of suffocating yer legs for fashion. I found some on sale and decided to try them on since they had a size 0(surprise, surprise-see the irony here? "Skinny Jeans"?). As it turns out, they did not suffocate my legs, just collected folds and baggyness at the bottom...
PS-I lurve Kohl's, there seems to always be a sale =D And for the passerby here that say Hot Topic is soooo much better than any other store, I say screw that cuz they never have my size =X Love the place though.
