SPANX®
The bold mission of SPANX: to make the world a better place, one butt at a time. For founder Sara Blakely, it all started in 2000 with a bad case of VPL: visible panty lines. She cut the feet off her control-top pantyhose, and a shapewear empire was born. Today these undergarments are wardrobe staples for women and men who trust SPANX to slim their silhouettes and boost their confidence.

Favorite Pants
I have a few of the Spanx pants and these are my favorite. I am size 4-6 (wear a size 28 jean) and bought the medium. They fit perfectly just skimming and not too tight. I am 5'5" and can wear a 1-2 inch heal, no hemming needed. They are of a heavy weight and hide all lines/bumps. I will get a lot of use out of these and like the straight leg vs. a tight style.

My first Spanx!
I generally prefer a Medium in tight/compression-style pants, and a Medium fits great. The rise is high but not bulky. The slim leg is great with flats for the office. They do hit a little lower on my ankle than the model and I’m 5’7”, so could imagine shorter folks would find these too long.

great pants, too long
I love the fit and feel of these and they look so classy. I am a size 10 to 12 and the large fits me well. My only complaint is the length of the leg, I am 5’4, but I do have a long torso with shorter legs and they are 2 to 3 inches too long. I rolled them under just to see how they would look if I got them hemmed and they still have a great shape so I plan on keeping them and getting them hemmed.

Heavy knit
These pants are a very heavy knit with lots of support and will not show cellulite… I decided to return them because of their weight and I felt like I wouldn’t be able to wear them in our hot, humid climate in South Texas. If you live in a colder climate, and are looking for a structured, knit that will hold you in and won’t loose its shape, I think you’ll be happy.

Spanx Ponte Straight Pant
I’m also a denim size 28, 5’10” and the medium fits me comfortably in this model pant. Just like in other Spanx pants, I find them a bit too tight in small, and on the comfortable side in medium. Wish Spanx would offer more granular sizing with a true 2,4,6 sizing, but obviously it’s more lucrative for companies to offer fewer size options using the SML system. When in between sizing, I usually opt for the larger option and it works out well in this cut. Really nice feeling substantial fabric, easy pull on style, it looks good with the clean pocketless sides, back seams and fake back pockets which make this style appear more like a real pant than a legging. I look forward to getting a lot of wear out of this item.

Feel like leggings. Look like dress pants.
Most comfortable work pants! The backseam spanx skinny pants are my work go-to, but these look a little dressier with the straight leg. I’m 115 lb/size 0, 5’4” and the XS fit perfectly. They are quite a bit longer than the picture shows. I have to cuff them under (will have them hemmed) about 2.5” for them to be the length shown on the model in the photo. Amazing quality material. Thick and does not wrinkle easily!
