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).

Absolutely perfect proportions
These are so good, I wanna cry! I’m 5’4” and 149 lbs with a short torso…I’m typically a solid size 29 in Mother denim, but did need to size down to a 28 in these. The rise and length of these is unbelievably awesome — on the Mother website it lists the rise as 9 3/8, which on my short torso is a mid-rise…total sweet spot for me, I’ve been so so frustrated with all these high-rise jeans because they honestly come up to my bra line and look screwy on my body. This pair fits me exactly as pictured on the model, which is a first. I tend to be a little self conscious because I have a softer middle and I don’t have a very defined waistline (rectangle body shape), but I think the magic is honing in on the perfect rise for your body…these are definitely it for me! I actually tucked in a shirt today, which I don’t usually do, and felt so chic and on trend. This is the first wide-leg style I’ve worn that doesn’t drown me or make me look sloppy. Incredibly flattering, highly recommend!

Great Wideleg Denim
Loved everything about these! Mid rise and super flattering. Slightly longer than I expected- definitely need a heel. Runs a bit bigger than normal.

Perfectly stylish
Love these! I'm just under 5'4" 118 lbs and the 26 is perfect with a tiny heel. Fitted through the thighs, which I like.

Very flattering
I love Mother Jeans however they don’t all look good on me. I am curvy, hourglass, athletic build. These look and feel so good on. The weekender style has been my go too. These are right there with them. I am also 5’3 so the petite is perfect for me. Worth every penny .. do run slightly large but I am also loosing weight. I am normally a 32 and bought 31. My weight is 183

Such cute pants
I absolutely love these jeans. I have a very flat figure and these jeans give the illusion of a curvy figure. I’m absolutely in love with them.

Love the wide Leg but size down
I'm usually a 26/27 on Mother Jeans and I got the 27. Love the petite length (29").
Love the wide legs style. The material is a little stretchy. Will be returning the 27 and will get the 26.
