Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I'm a big girl. So I ordered the largest size option (40 US) aka 20W L. I also ordered 3 other pairs because I was hoping to have 3 nice pairs of black jeans that I can pair with boots and mutliple cowl-neck sweaters for my easy, no-nonsense approach to fashion. For the Levi's Women's Plus-Size 414 Classic Straight Jean: I can get these on - but every bump and lump on my thighs - visible. And while they rest in the appropriate place on my tummy - they are dangerously low in the back. As in - even hiking them up - with a belt cinched up like Ellie Mae Clampett - you will be risking showing 'whale-tail' or whatever the cool kids are calling it. I wear big loose tops when I'm wearing jeans - my attempt to hide the butt - so that's not the issue - but I would never wear these because they are too thigh hugging / fabric too thin for said thigh hugging. The back is low enough to feel uncomfortable against the coccyx . Full disclosure - I am pear shaped - closer to eggplant shaped. Lol. In my early teens - at my smallest - my waist was 24 inches and my hips were over 40 inches. And this was LONG before big butts were 'fashionable' - but I digress. I struggle to find jeans that will fit my thighs and my waist. I'm posting this review because - in the past - I've posted reviews where I share struggles finding a specific item - and other Amazonians with a comparable struggle will post a comment - ahem - a helpful comment about an item they found that worked for them. I am looking for 'old-school' jeans - true denim - thick - with no stretchy fibers added - no shaping - no skinny legs or tapering - straight / boot cut. I cannot believe that I might have to go to bespoke / specialty company true, unadulterated denim.
