Way too high waisted, way too unflattering
These would be flattering if you were taller or thinner. The thighs were way wide and unflattering on a petite frame. I have thinner thighs so pants that are too loose in the thigh don’t look good on me. Returned. Found the raw edge Madewell’s to be better.

Huge!
Absolutely not! I’m a true size 12, these are huge and unflattering. I am long waisted and these came up to under my boobs. Extremely high waisted and very bell bottom.

Love the fit, hate the dye
I've struggled with Wit & Wisdom jeans and the esthetic choices they make with dye. These fit nicely but had bleaching at the crotch/zipper that drew your attention in a negative way. I wish they would make the Sam jeans in a dark wash without distressing.

at least 2 sizes too big
Size down. I usually wear a 4 in jeans. I am 5’3” 120lbs and I bought a 2 in these pants. They are at least 2 sizes too big. I am sizing down to a 00 and hope they fit.

Very long for petite sizing
nice quality, thick material with a lot of stretch (size down)-AND bonus make your badonkadonk look amazing! However, they are really long- even for petite sizing, I would have to wear heels and still have the hems drag. Disappointing. Due to the stretch, I recommend sizing down. For reference, I am 5'0", 115lbs and ordered the 2P and had to return because they are too long and I suspect they will stretch out after a couple of hours.
