Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased multiple pairs of these pants. I ordered the smallest size available (2 short). For reference I am 4’9”, more short-legged than waisted, have a 27.5” waist, and 36” hips. My inseam is usually around a 25” in length. My first order I chose White and the Charcoal color, both in size 2 short. The white pair fit great. The only problem was that you could definitely see through them. They were just not opaque enough for my liking. The charcoal pair fit more tightly and didn’t have a tag on them. They also smelled freshly washed. It is my opinion that they were a customer return. After reading previous reviews about not drying them with heat or they will shrink, I am convinced this is what happened. So I returned both pair and reordered another Charcoal and this time Black (again in size 2 short). When the Black and Charcoal pair arrived they both fit like a dream. Both had their original tags on them too. Of course they were too long in the inseam but 99% of the time pants always are for me (unless I find an awesome pair of ankle pants). So after altering the inseam they are perfect. The charcoal pair look really nice. I debated on whether I wanted Charcoal or Dark Charcoal. I finally decided that since I was already ordering Black, I didn’t want the DarK Charcoal pants to look like a pair of faded black pants. The black pair look really nice too. They have a bit of a sheen to them and are very classy. These pants have two faux pockets on the front and a faux zipper flap too. They are super stretchy too so if you are sort of in between sizes, just know that they have a lot of give in them. The measurements of the size 2 Short are as follows: ________________________________ Inseam: 28” Waist circumference: 30” Across the hips: 16” Front rise: 8 3/4” Back rise: 14” ________________________________ Overall except for that one pair that seemed like a return I am very pleased with these pants. I plan to order more colors soon as well. My advice is like a lot of other reviewers: Don’t wash them or dry them with heat. I wash them in cold and hang to dry. UPDATE: I purchased two additional pairs of these pants, this time in a size 4. The fit was a bit better than the size 2. I ordered them in Indigo and the Brown mix. The Indigo was a lot darker than I expected. They can easily be confused with black in certain lighting, however, they are still pretty. The measurements for size 4 Short are as follows: _______________________________________ Waist = 31" Inseam = 30 1/2" Across hip = 17" Front rise = 9" Back rise = 14 1/4" __________________________________________ The measurements for the size 6 Short are as follows: Waist: 32" Inseam: 30 1/2" Across hip: 18" Front rise: 9" Back rise: 15" Incidentally if you like my tops all of them except the teal one are Susan Graver tops. XXS blouses in her line fit me perfectly.
