Brief first impression....

Just got these and tried them on for a first impression. I was hoping to replace my beloved Balance style by Zella from some years back. These are similar to those with a flattering straight cut, slim through the hips and straight down the leg. The inseam is long at 32". I ordered medium and will have to shorten them, fortunately I sew and have a cover stitch machine. I am 5'3" and can usually handle a regular length. The fabric is rather on the thin side but is soft with a nice drape. These pants will be great for lounging, yoga, etc. They may not keep me warm in a cool breeze outside. 4 stars for the super long length, 5 stars for the flattering fit and feel. I think they are going to grow on me, very comfy.

they are soft

Was so excited when I pulled these out of the bag - so soft and stretchy! However, as others noted, really strange creasing in the crotch area. Nope - going back!

holy camel toe

I’ve been eyeing these pants in the other lighter blue color for weeks and finally decided to bite the bullet and try the navy color. I’m 5’4” 135# muscular build and medium bottoms are my typical legging size. I like that this style does not have that awful elastic at the very top of the leggings like the other Zella leggings do. Unfortunately the pants are too big and were bagging around my crotch but the worst part is the camel toe. I’m not sure why everyone is so obsessed with seamless leggings/work out bottoms because without the seam you can see EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING. It was a mixture of camel toe and Barbie crotch as the fabric bunches up around your hips to accentuate the area even more. Definitely returning, I would be mortified to wear these in public.

TOO SHORT

So tired of pants being labeled with inaccurate inseam lengths. Also start making leggings that are 29-30” length not just 7/8 length

perfect! so trendy

Obsessed with these pants, the fit, the material, everything! These will become my Yoga staple, especially with the Cami to make a set. I also love that there’s no seam at the front. From airport, weekends, to yoga, these are THE pant.

Love These Pants

These pants are amazingly soft and just the right amount of width to make legs look long and lean! This was my second purchase having already bought the brown ones. They are easy to clean and so comfortable! Highly recommend.

Met My Needs

A long casual comfy pants for a return flight home. I wanted lightweight pants and top to roll up easy to add in carry-on luggage. No wrinkles. No see-through material. Tts medium and length was to my ankle bone

Underwhelmed

Purchased size Small. For reference I'm 5' 3" 125lb. I have many Zella "Live In" leggings and flare pant, which I love. However these "Zen High Waist Wide Leg" pants are a much thinner material. Yes they are soft but offer no supportive feeling as the "Live In" pants do. And the front with no seam looked weird on me (accentuated the area). I have several Nike Brand with the same no front seam and they fit much better than these. Wanted to love this wide leg style but the fabric was just too thin and cheap feeling. Would prefer them in the "Live In" weight and supportive material. Not a fan of the Zen line fabric.

very light fabric - no hold

Bought these for athletic use but will be wearing them as pjs. Unlike prior Zella boot cuts the fabric is very lightweight and stretchy and the thighs are quite loose. There’s no hold or tension to keep me in place or the pants. So the front and back gusset tend to rise up when you move. Not a good look!

Comfiest Leggings Ive Ever Owed

I mean literally these feel like fricken butter dude. Incredibly soft but breathable. They’re literally perfect for if I’m feeling both hot and cold like I can’t explain it, they are perfect. I’ve had them for two months now and they still feel like new. Coming back just to review and to purchase more. The other review that said the length is wrong is incorrect also. I’m 5’5 and they would drag on the ground if I let it, depending on where you let them sit on your waist you can really adjust the length. They definitely are not short. All in all 100/10, I would live in these if I could.

Very thin material

Material is much thinner than expected. I thought these would be a wide leg yoga type pant. Material is more like a tight. Also noticed that online it says these are $79 on sale for $54. But the tag is $54 and no indication of sale. Returning.

Disappointing Zella wide leg pants

I thought I liked these well enough at first to have them hemmed at Nordstrom. Their alterations department took too much off the hem, and they were uneven. I took them back to be made longer, but they might still be too short. I realized also that they aren’t flattering at all, too flimsy material, and are a bit too loose. I’m not happy with these at all and probably cannot wear them anywhere but at home.
