Amazon EssentialsWomen's Skinny Jean

THIS IS UNBELIEVEABLE! I normally do not give an opinion on a product the very same day it arrives, as I like to use/wear it awhile first, before I decide if I like the product or not. However, I was so overjoyed with what Amazon delivered today, that I could not wait. I am a short person, 5'0" short, who has searched my entire adult life for jeans that fit properly. One year, many years ago, before school started, we, as we had done for years, went to the only store (a small family owned store) that carried the uniforms required by the parochial schools in our metro area. As the sales/ fitting lady helped our 3 daughters, I asked her if I could try on some jeans. She was kept busy, helping my girls "fit" their uniforms and mark them at the right places, where the seamstress would take them in. I wasn't aware that everytime I came out of the dressing room and looked into the 3 way mirror, that she was watching me. When I had tried on every jean they had out for sale, as was usual, ALL of them were way too long by than 6 inches or more. Running into a dead end, so to speak, as I usually did with jeans, I put them back where I had found them and hung them up. I returned to see how my daughters fittings were going. She looked like she had something to say, but was hesitating. When she spoke she said," I don't mean to be a busybody, but I noticed that the jeans we have for sale were all way too long for you. May I make a suggestion for you to try"? I told her she should tell me what she wanted to say. She informed me that the size jean I needed in a junior sizing, would ALL be way too long, unless I was lucky enough (at the time) to find someone who carried Petites. I asked off hand, if she knew of anyone who carried them at the time. She told me no, but that she thought I would get a perfect fit, and here she inserted,"I hope I don't offend you by saying this, but I think a girls size 14 would be perfect for you". She pointed the way. Having nothing to lose, I tried her suggestion. It was as though I had found custom fitted jeans! I chose a few pair, and from then on, I always went to the girls department when I needed any sort of pant. This past year, my jeans looked like they had seen their day. As I wanted to try some in the beautiful colors they now make, I looked at 2 of the better known, name brand jeans that were out there. I found almost NOTHING, in the size I needed, but even if it wasn't a color I would normally have chosen, I purchased the few I found offered and in stock, who claimed to fit according to the chart, between a 2 Petite and a 4 Petite. When they came, many were still way too long and the rest that were that was the right length, then the hips and waist were way too big. But beggars can't be choosers so they say, and I kept the ones that fit best lengthwise. The more I thought about it, after washing and wearing the 6 or so pair I had kept, I had kept, I recalled seeing a picture of Amazons jeans for petite women, on one of the pages where I had ordered the jeans I now had. I decided to give them a try. I purchased 2 pair, as that would give me more jeans than I needed, but a little bit of summery color. They came today. These are THE BEST jeans, fit wise, fabric wise and color wise, I have ever owned in my 64 years. I am NOT joking when I say that, for the first time ever, I was elated! I now have 2 pair of jeans that look and fit as though custom made. I only wish I hadn't washed and worn the name brand jeans that are ill fitting. The quality really surprised me, as the fabric was soft, supple and the jeans are very well constructed. Length is perfect. And, they are perfectly fitted to my hips and waist, not needing a belt. The next time I need or decide to buy jeans again, I am going straight to Amazon's page and place my order. And so many color choices for me! For the very first time, I have a choice of EVERY color they make, in all the larger sizes of the name brand jeans, but rarely, if ever in my size or length. I am in heaven! For a woman my age who has put up with either a poor color choice because the store does not buy large quantities of the 2 smallest sizes, and they go fast IF they carry them at all, or having to choose jeans that are too big in the hips and/or waist, I now have two VERY well made, VERY lovely looking pairs of jeans, that no one would ever know they aren't one of the name brands. Thank you Amazon! I have waited my entire life, to find pretty colored, well fitting, well made jeans that up until now, I had to compromise on something, to wear. These jeans are perfect! A perfect fit. Perfect colors and sturdy construction. I will forget about those name brand jeans, (and their price) and head straight to Amazons jeans page. I KNOW I won't be disappointed. You made my year!

I sized up like other shoppers recommended. These pants are super cute, but the waist fits a little weird. I usually buy Gap or Old Navy jeans, and I have never had a problem with weird tightness in the waist. The rest of the jeans fit me like like they were tailored for me. It could be that I have a rectangular figure (no real curves). Since the pants fit so well everywhere else and are such a cute color, I am going to keep them and put up with the waistband.

I generally love Amazon Essentials clothing, but these jeans are not that great. They are extremely stretchy, like jeggings, so you can move around and bend down very easily, but they also seem to run large, and are slightly baggy in the hip and knee, which I assume will only worsen throughout the day as the fabric loosens up. For reference, I am 5'6", 129 lbs, and the size 6 in these jeans felt almost roomy. However, that could be a good thing if your weight fluctuates, since I think anyone from a 4 to an 8 could wear the size 6 due to the extreme stretch.The roominess actually made my hips look bigger and squarer, which i didn't like. I think a firmer denim with less stretch, might be more smoothing. I have a slim build and these jeans made me look at least 10-15 lbs heavier. To make matters worse, the pockets are WAY TOO HIGH! At least an inch too high. The high pockets make your butt look longer and lower to the ground, which is an unflattering look. Well placed pockets can sculpt your whole body, but these jeans just have terrible pocket placement, which gives you a saggy a$$. I bravely snapped a pic of my butt to illustrate. You're welcome.FYI: I tried 2 pairs--6 Regular in the Light Wash and 6 Long in the Medium Wash. The 6 Reg Light Wash was softer and thinner, but short almost like an ankle jean. The 6 Long Medium Wash was crispier fabric, baggier in the knee, came up an inch higher to my belly button, and had several inches of scrunch at the ankle. The 6 Long Medium Wash was almost a "slouchy skinny" in the sense that there was extra room all the way down the leg. The waist was smaller on the 6 Long, so I would not have wanted to size down, though.Ultimately, they're probably fine if you are looking for a value-priced jean you don't have to handle with care. They're just not a bargain if you feel ugly in them though, which is why I returned them.

I bought the light olive and was pleasantly surprised. The material is of better quality than i expected (others use a thinner-weight material).The color olive is the same as in the photos.I read other's reviews and sized up and I'm glad I did. Instead of an 8 I bought the 10 and they fit first try. I will say, the inseam is long based on the Q&A which said regular length is 29"...mine are longer.I also bought these in the dark wash and those are not as nice as these (material is thinner and they fit much smaller so I went up two sizes in those)

I would have given 5 stars due quality of material, well tapered leg and length…except the waist bad itself is smaller than expected and has no give. It sits high for me, I’m 5.3 126 lbs. it’s was real snug for a 6 and I had to make a point to stretch the waist. The stretch in the rest of the pant was good but I could only wear in a “thin” day.

I was wanting something like Old Navy has... Just seemed like the front area looked way off, too tall/long looking

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of these. They’re comfortable and flattering. One note is that you can definitely see panty lines, so a thong is a must if you want to avoid that. The legs are a little long, but not overly so.

Lovely jeans. Nice colour. I am 5ft 3 and the regular are a great length I don't have to fold them up. Very comfortable and I don't find myself pulling these up every 5 minutes as with some jeans.

This isn't necessarily an Amazon problem but an everyone problem. I ordered four pairs of jeans, all the same size, from different suppliers. Two were too small (this being one of them), one fit perfectly, and one was too big.I go by the cm measurements, so I'm not sure what else one can do to get their size :/ especially when CM/IN measurements aren't given.

I'm 5'1". I purchased a size 8. They fit like a dream and wash really well. What I will say is you will need to own a lint roller for these as the pick up everything!

Perfect! I hate buying jeans im a size 16 so getting a good fit is extremely hard they are always too big or too small so i wasnt expecting much when i ordered these but so pleasantly surprised at both size and comfort
