Compression Flare Leg Ponte Pants

I bought them for work, but the material picks up quite a lot of lint. However, they work well as travel pants. They pack well, are lightweight and comfortable, and transitioned from sight-seeing to dinner. Easy to wash. However, they are a bit too long to wear with trainers, so might need to be hemmed first.

Usually a "petite," I ordered my normal size and hemmed to the right length. I love these pants and how they fit and stretch! As other reviewers noted, the fabric is quite thick, so it adds some "weight" but without the warmth. I do expect to still be able to wear these during our Pacific Northwest summer (all but the hottest of days), as they are still breathable... To me, the "compression" aspect is not restrictive (don't think of them as Spanx), but that might be the size I chose; they are more form fitting than trousers, but the ponte knit adds great stretch and comfort -- and did not sag over the course of a day... Overall quality is wonderful, so I expect these to be a wardrobe staple for several years.

I was hesitant to spend this much on dress pants but they were worth it. Material is stretchy but structured. They give a little throughout the day but not so much you can't wear them another day (dry clean only). I am 5'7" and could almost wear with flats but they look better with a low heel. Took my normal size as well. If you need a high quality dress pant, go for it!
