Standing ONLY pants

Reviewed in Canada on 27 July 2021

Size: 27W / 32LColour: BlackVerified Purchase

These jeans are honestly so cute, but the material has ZERO stretch. The jean material is so stiff that you can't bend, wiggle, lunge, or really do any kind of activity in them. I normally wear a 25 in jeans and I ordered a 27. They fit me perfect around the waist, so definitely size up at least one size or two if your cautious like me. They have that perfectly fitted in the waist, yet baggy in the leg cool girl look to them. But you must sacrifice movement if you want these pants. With that said, I ended up sending them back. I just can't justify a standing only pant for that high of a price tag.

I love the colour and shape but they are way to big

So confused and bummed

Reviewed in the United States on 17 May 2020

Size: 32W / 32LColour: BlackVerified Purchase

I’m so confused. I read all the reviews before buying these and nearly everyone said to size up, so I did.

These were HUGE on me!!!! I honestly feel like I could have ordered my size- or even a size smaller. I’m so upset. I have almost a 6 inch gap when I pull the waist out. It’s clownish.

These jeans are everything I look for. They’re ultra high waisted. Long enough for a tall girl to cuff. And the material is the thick quality denim all 80s/90s kids knew and loved. Jeans like these are difficult to come across these days. They could last you a lifetime if you’re careful with them. It’s such a shame they’re SO huge on me.

I’m completely bewildered by the other reviews on here.

Good quality strange length

Reviewed in the United States on 26 June 2020

Size: 31W / 32LColour: Medium WashVerified Purchase

These are the strangest jeans I’ve ever got! The quality of the material and stitching is great. These are nice heavy denim with no stretch. However, the fit is all wrong. Having read the reviews I opted for +2 sizes for a looser feet (I’m 29 in super-skinny levi’s and sometimes 28 in skinnies, size 6-8 in dresses). Yet, they seem to increase the inseam length as the size goes up and for me the inseam is extremely long in this! And not only this pair is about 5 inches longer than expected (regular 32 inseam), but it also has an issue with the proportion of the leg length. I mean, the knee area in this is about 2 inches below my natural knee which creates kind of bubble in the knee area at sides. I’m 5’7” for reference and generally need 32-33 inseam. This pair felt like 37 inseam! I rolled it 3folds to hit right below my ankle. Other than that, the waist area was loose (as expected) which is normal for me and the top leg area was just rightly tight.

These would be good if not for the length issue. Also, if you are size 6 and up in waist, I would consider the next size up,

SMALLLLL

Súper cute wash/color and look ... really SMALL. Order like 2 sizes up. Getting them over the butt is no easy task. You need a really tiny waist for these to fit comfortably.

Perfect Mom Jeans... BUT

Reviewed in the United States on 20 March 2021

Size: 26W / 32LColour: Medium Marble WashVerified Purchase

I really wanted to love these jeans, but they came with three round holes near the ankle of one leg. Such a bummer because besides that they’re my dream pair of mom jeans. For almost $80 I was definitely hoping for a better quality and based on that, I’m unsure if I’d recommend the product to others.

If you do take the risk, I recommend sizing up. Since these are a thick denim material without stretch, measure the smallest part of your waist and then add one number for best fit (example: if you measure as 26” go with a 27). The jeans are long, which is great for cuffing or for tall people who need the extra leg room. Great jeans all in all and they would have earned 5 stars, had they come without damage.

Hour Glass figures, this is a no go :(

Reviewed in the United States on 14 September 2020

Size: 29W / 32LColour: Light WashVerified Purchase

ZERO stretch in these suckers. I am inbetween a size 6 and size 8 (5’6” 150lbs athletic/body-builder body blessed with natural curves) there was NO room for my hips at all. That being said, these jeans seem very well made and indestructible really. Additionally, if you are looking for the “mom jean” look they are perfect! As is the length is amazing. Unfortunately, the fit was just so uncomfortable on my body... i don’t think I will even try them in another size :/ Curvy ladies/hour glass figures beware!

Good quality for the price, but the fit is off.

Reviewed in the United States on 18 April 2020

Size: 27W / 32LColour: Medium WashVerified Purchase

These jeans are good quality, unfortunately the sizing is a little bit off. I read other reviews that said go up one size so I did. However, the jeans are actually a bit loose on me now, but nothing a belt can’t fix. They come up about an inch above my belly button, so a really nice high waist, perfect for crop tops. They’re also LONG. I have naturally long legs, and my whole life my issue has been that jeans are always a couple inches too short. These jeans wrapped around my heels, they were so long. I think even a size down would be too long. I cuffed them so I’m not super worried about the length anymore, but it’s just something to be aware of. I also had trouble buttoning the pants, but like I said, this is my first pair of real denim jeans so this could just be a result of that—they don’t stretch as much as jeans from places like American Eagle, which of course are moreso jeggings than jeans. Overall I’m happy with my purchase, especially because the jeans were only $23, & I think they will make a great addition to my wardrobe. Just know the sizing may be a little wonky and not what you expected!

Not what I was expecting

Size: 29W / 32LColour: Medium Marble WashVerified Purchase

Unfortunately I was not able to return them with time, especially with this COVID-19 going on. I got my size, they did not fit, they are so stiff, and the jeans I got the color was not the one in the picture, these are faded and that's not what I wanted. So I'm upset I can't even wear them, at least if they fit.

Went two sizes up!

Reviewed in the United States on 25 February 2022

Size: 28W / 32LColour: Medium WashVerified Purchase

I am 5'3" 145lbs wearing size 28. Based on the reviews I went up 2 sizes and I am glad I did. I normally wear a 4 - 6 (size 26) in women's, but these have ZERO stretch (as described). I am still breaking them in and wear them for a few hours a day, the fabric is rough so they arent exactly comfy. I love the look so I am keeping them--- although there is no way I can sit down lol.
