"New Jeans" is a song by South Korean girl group NewJeans, taken from their second extended play (EP), Get Up (2023). ADOR, an independent division of Hybe, released the track for digital download and streaming as a B-side to the single "Super Shy" on July 7, 2023.

Frankie Scoca and Park Jin-su produced "New Jeans" and wrote it with Erika de Casier, Fine Glindvad Jensen, Gigi, and NewJeans member Haerin. The track incorporates influences from eclectic dance styles such as UK garage, Jersey club, jungle, and drum and bass in its rhythms and instruments. The lyrics are about the members' awareness of the attention on them and reference American duo Outkast's 2001 single "So Fresh, So Clean". Music critics complimented the production and dubbed it as the EP's mission statement.
