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).

Love them for summer and beyond

It can be hit or miss for Lil Mother sometimes with fits between 25 - 27 depending on the jean. I found the Lil’ Weekend jeans to be my favorites as they stay true to size (for me 26P), although this pair seems a bit roomy they are perfect laid back for summer or fall. The fit is right on as the knee falls just right. I am 4’11”, but have long legs and short torso so the length is not ankle like the model. For me it hits at the top of my foot which is perfect for sandals or sneakers. Rise is at 9 1/4” which is a mid rise and I prefer that to high waist due to my short torso. I have three pair now of this style in different washes and highly recommend for petites on the shorter end. Anniversary sale price? You bet!

Wrong Item shipped

I ordered size 28 jeans and I was surprised to see that my shipment was a black leather jacket instead of jeans!!! How did that happen? This is not the first time Nordstrom has shipped the wrong item

Inseam Not Accurate

Short girl here, these are not 27 inch inseam as listed. These are full length flares with at least a 29 inch inseam. For reference I am 4’11” and I can wear these with a 3.5 inch heel and it still skims the ground. I always find it annoying when brands think petite inseams are 29-30 inches...

28 inch inseam on size 28

I was expecting an inseam closer to the 27 inch listed in the description- but my size 28 have 28 inch (I measured). They're great jeans. More stretch than I expected. The extra inch isn't a deal breaker, but they look different than what is pictured.

Length is longer than advertised

These fit true to size for the brand but the inseam measures 28 inches, not 27 inches as described.

very stretchy and long for a petite

Was excited to get these for $100 off in Anniversary sale. Very stretchy material which I like. They are not ankle length, at least on my 5’-1” frame. Hoping they shrink a bit in the wash or I may need to have them hemmed. Would prefer option to wear them with a low heel. As they are I have to wear a 3” heel to keep hem off the ground.

Love Mother

Color is great for summer. Fits TTS with some nice stretch. I am 5’4” and they were full length. I did not need to shorten them, but wanted the ankle length look. Best thing about Mother frays is that all you need are some sharp scissors and you can make them any length you want. I have done this with many pairs. Anniversary sale price was fantastic!
