High Waist Barely Barrel Jeans

I'm 5'1" and purchased a size 4 pair on a whim. The jeans fit great! Full length on me, of course, but comfortable where they sit on my waist. I like that these plenty stretchy jeans feel more like old school (not too heavy) denim. I'll be comfortable in fall and winter. The barely barrel leg is just right, not exaggerated, not overwelming me in fabric.

Of course Nordstrom persists in using Lasership. Left the Nordstrom facility 11 days ago with the "promise" haha that I would learn in 48-72 hours the arrival day. Lasership site has no information. Not sure where the package is (includes other items) but I'll be darned if I'm paying for it. Shame on you, Nordstrom!

So bummed that these did not work out for me as they looked so cute on the model. I'm 5'4" and the length is below my ankles and the leg width at the bottom makes me look like a clown. Sadly, these will have to go back.

I’m 5’1” and I ordered a 6P and it fits great in the hips and thighs. However the length did not hit me the way it did for the model in the picture. It hit below my ankles at an awkward length.

I’m small and usually wear a 25 or 26 in pants. I ordered a 0 and I’d say it fits more like a 2+. The wash was nice and I like the front pocket detail, but the backside did nothing for me and the fact it was too big for me just made it less flattering. I’d say size down… I’ll probably return.

These jeans are super cute, and I'm excited to wear them! The denim has a nice mid-weight feel — not too heavy, but substantial enough that they don't feel flimsy. The high waist sits just below my belly button, which I found comfortable. I wear Wit & Wisdom jeans almost exclusively, so I'm very familiar with their sizing. Compared to the Sawyer and Gemma styles, these run slightly larger. I ended up sizing down one size, and the fit is much better.

I wanted a barrel jean, but not so wide that I would look shorter than I already am (4'11") so I ordered my regular W&W size: 4P online, first day I could access the Anniversary Sale. Delivery was quick, arrived in 2 days. I was so disappointed that they were pretty tight around the waist even with the usual special waistband. I went in-person to exchange, but sadly, ALL petite sizes were sold out in-store and online! I figured I would go to a size 6 but in the Regular inseam and have it delivered to the store so I can try it on and alter if possible. Crossing fingers!

I ordered the Barely Barrel Jeans and received an entirely different Wit and Wisdom pant from Nordstrom. The jeans I received had a zigzag design on the legs rather that the clean straight stitching as shown on the website. And the pants were cuffed, not barely barrel as depicted. First time Nordstrom completely missed on an order for me. Returning of course. Now the pants are sold out of my size so I can't even reorder.

Love the style of this jean but the legs are super baggy & inseam too short for me. Bummer because they could be ideal if the sizing was improved.

I really love the style of these jeans the only issue the inseam is too short, especially for a high waisted pant.

Love this brand so despite buying and returning many barrel jeans I decided to try one last time ith this brands version and they are a keeper! Finally a barrel jean that is not clownish on!!

Pay close attention to the rise measurements because these don’t even come close to covering my bellybutton. They definitely run at least one size off so order down. I think these are cute but sending back because I just can’t handle anything sitting lower than my natural waist.
