MOTHER
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).

cute but overcharging
These are so cute but Mother marked these half off a while ago and Nordstrom is still charging full price for them. They went on sale at just about every other retailer. Check the prices elsewhere.

G.O.A.T
4’9, 145lb, Mexican, soft tummy, hourglass shape, worked out my entire life. These jeans are literally the perfect pair of jeans. They fit my waist perfectly- even after meals- they are soooo comfortable and super flattering. 10/10 get them. I bought these with the expectation of having to return because NO petite jeans are ever short enough. These are incredible.

Flattering!
Love these! They are flattering and the length is perfect for my petite 5' 3" frame. I get so many compliments every time I wear them.

So Cute & Fit Well BUT
Love these jeans but they are just too trendy for me. If I embraced trends easily and quickly, I would have kept these.

Love these jeans
I found these at NRack for $109 and had to have them. They are very stylish and comfortable. I love the black and blue contrast. The best part is I don't have to hem them. I am 4'11" and they are full length on me but I don't mind. Very happy!

Mother barrel jeans
Beautifully made as expected for the price.. I am usually a size 27 in most jeans, but a 28 in Mother jeans. These are trendy, but quite attractive.
