Ponte Knit Maternity Pants

I’m early in my pregnancy (beginning of second trimester), and felt the pants were the perfect fit for this stage of my pregnancy. I was mostly disappointed in how much dye came off of the pants. I only had them on for an hour before I noticed my nails/fingers were black from when I put them on the first time and my white couch was stained after sitting on it for 45 minutes. Very disappointing.

These pants were so close, but are going back due to one odd design choice from the manufacturer. I loved the fabric and they fit well everywhere below my bump. The pants ended squarely in the middle of my bump, just above my belly button. The fabric felt high-quality and I could easily see myself wearing this to a client meeting. However, the stitching along the very top of the pant was the tightest part of the construction, which is an odd choice as these are intended to last throughout pregnancy. As I mentioned, that stitching hit me square in the middle of my bump, which is the part of a pregnant woman's belly that is generally going to expand the most. The manufacturer should have used an elastic thread or something with more stretch in that one location, like they did for the Angel maternity leggings, which don't have this problem. For reference, I am normally a size 6-8 bottom, 5'8" and 150lbs, with a long torso. This is my second pregnancy; I bought these at 20 weeks and I have a small, just emerging bump in the front of my abdomen and have had little weight gain elsewhere.

I love the feel of the fabric and fit. They are great to wear to work or running errands. They will bleed black on everything you touch or sit on after the first 3 washes

I love them , they are very stretchy and comfortable.

They feel like butter!!!

Great pants, very comfortable, but the color bleeds and it ended up staining my nails. Hoping a wash will fix them

I bought these pants for work, but they are glorified yoga pants. They don’t have any pockets, they are clearly spandex (shiny) and the material is super thick. There is no way I could wear these to work and get away with it. Also, they would be so hot I’m not sure I’d want to anyways. Skip these and get something else.

The run large and they are not very flattering but they are so soft and comfortable that I kept them.

I preferred the ponte knit to the other black Angel Maternity pants. These have a softer, stretchier material as opposed to the others which are more of a jegging. Both are comfy but I opted to keep this pair as they were easier to put on and gave me more room to grow.

I’m 18 weeks pregnant and ordered my pre-pregnancy size. While the material is soft and nice, the fit it horrible. It was huge and baggy from waist and hips. Will be returning.
