Cute and Comfortable Jeans

I’m so happy with my new purchase. I bought them in black while in the store. I’m glad I had a chance to try them on there, since I needed to size down. I agree with other reviews to size down. Also, I’m 5’6” and the regular hits me just past the ankle.

Shrunk after washing

I bought these pants about 10 days ago and washed them in cold water and dried them on medium heat. They shrunk about 2 inches in length. I am tall so the pants look ridiculous now.

Need Numeric Sizing

I am in between sizes. Please go back to numeric sizing in jeans for a more accurate fit. The XS is slightly tight, and the S is enormous on me. Disappointing. The jeans are beautiful. I really wanted to buy them. I probably need an XS.5 for 4-6. For those interested, I would say they run large in the waist.

Sizing, sizing, sizing

I love this heavier weight cotton for cooler months. What I cannot figure out is the current EF sizing. I am 5'2, 110 lbs and purchased an M - they fell off my hips. Other EF pants in M are waaay too tight in the waist. I think it is the current high waist styling - not comfortable and makes a small person look sloppy I re-ordered in a S and anticipate better results, love the material, style and look

Great jean

Bought these in black. It has a washed look. I like the pockets. Very casual. Size small I'm a 10. They fit perfectly. Hapily I bought them online on sale.

Where are the light denim stretch lantern jean!

I kept the dark indigo and medium indigo. Sent back the black they fit odd. Waiting for light denim, was told the would be coming in mid July… still waiting!

Great jeans!

Such great jeans for athletic figures! I have wide thighs and a narrow waist/narrow calves, and pants are really hard to fine. These fit really really well. I typically wear an S or M in the lantern pant, and bought these in M and returned them for a S.

Irregular Fit

This was the second time I ordered these exact pants within a month. The first pair fit. This second pair was bigger and didn't fit. Frustrating.

Feels and looks great!

I just wore these at a wedding rehearsal dinner, paired with a matching silk tank and a short pink button top. Felt wonderful and looked great! Packed flat, no wrinkles.

This is my day to day pant but the length is too s

I wear these at least a couple of times a week, but simply do not understand the point of a 28" inseam. These cannot be altered for length, so unless I am going very casual, they aren't suitable for work. I know EF sometimes makes 30" inseam and implore the brand to do that more often. There are easily as many of us who are tall as there are petite, but yet clothing always looks like a mistake with this inseam. (Mine is 31".) Wider pants in particular look terrible when they are short.
