Zahra Belted Denim Pants

4 stars because... the description does not say that these pants have pleats. The angle of the pictures, where the belt hangs in the pictures and the models hand in the pocket completely hides that there is a pleat on each side. The pants fit me well but pooch out in the pleat area which I don’t care for. I’m trying to figure out if I can have the pleats sewn flat without spending a lot. I don’t generally buy pants with polyester in them but I’m a hard fit in my knee area and these fit great overall and I’m desperate for pants that are not skinny, straight or make me look like a sausage in a casing. I will use a different belt because just as in the picture it is very long and just kept getting in the way. I’m 5’7 1/2” and there is enough length to wear a boot or a heel.

finally !!! I have been thinking that the quality of most of my Nordstrom products have gone down hill, and been really unhappy with the merchandise. The fabric is a perfect mid to heaver weight, without being bulky. The stretch is quiet and solid. The style is trouser type, higher waist than usual, pleated front and wide legs to fall off the backside instead of cupping your bum. The size is true to size, maybe a tad large (yea!). I will be trying more of this brand. Keep it up Nordy's.

I am a size 20, and these jeeans fit perfectly! I've washed and worn them several times, and they come out looking nice except for a quick iron touch up on the hem. The pockets are huge, which I love, but can sag open at times. The legs are wide and create a nice line. The fabric is soft and gives just enough to be comfortable. It is medium weight, so good for year round wearing. The D rings on the belt work well. I live these jeans and wish I could wear them more often.
