Founded in 2010 by premium-denim industry pros Lela Becker and Tim Kaeding, MOTHER specializes in collections that present a juxtaposition of hard and soft. The brand evokes teenage rebellion, unconditional love and hilarious insult all at the same time (the company's name is a play on the duality of the word "mother," which can be nurturing or a cuss).
Too baggy, too much material with thick cotton material. Made for tall women. Was not flattering so sent it back.

Sir, Yes Sir for Fall
I love these MOTHER drawstring pants for the fall season! I’m a huge fan of the Half Pipe, but I wasn’t convinced by the color on the hanger; however, once I had them on, I fell in love with the Sir, Yes Sir color.
The material is a little heavier weight, so I agree with other reviewers that they’re likely too heavy for the summer months, but I think they’re the perfect weight for fall and even spring. I’m 5’6 and had no issues with the length - just short enough for my liking without being too cropped - and they look great with the Van Stackform!
I did size up from my typical size. I likely could have gone down with the hope they’d relax, but I wanted something comfortable from the jump, and this pair definitely ticks that box.
I recommend trying these on in store, if possible. Another win from MOTHER in my book, but they may not be for everyone.

Love the color not the fit
So disappointed these pants didn’t work. I’m 5’6 and they were too long. For me, the material isn’t lightweight enough to wear during the warm summer months. The green is beautiful but the style and fit just didn’t work so I returned them.

Lacking something
These are comfy pants, but for the price (even on sale) I would want them to offer a bit more style. I’m 5’10”, usually a sz 31 in AG (women’s sz 10/12) and the 30 fit well, but could’ve gone with a 31 if I wanted them real baggy (the 30 fit loose). I’d consider keeping them at a much lower price (closer to $60 than $160).
