Q: If I’m a size 8 what size would I order for these jeans?

submitted by Lisa - 6 months ago
  • A: I agree, this brand runs small. Even in the dark wash, I usually wear a 4 in all jean brands. I bought a 4 & a 6 because the 4 looked really small. It's a good thing I did because the 4 fit like a 2.

    submitted byMamamia - 2 months ago
  • A: I am a size 6 and ordered these in 6 and they were too small. I am going to size up to 8.

    submitted bySarah - 6 months ago

    Material not flattering for black ones

    maaya - 18 days ago, Verified purchaser
    I have bought several pairs of this in the light-blue wash (now unavailable) and one in the dark blue wash, and then also in black. All same size (4 short), and the blue ones (light and dark) are true denim material without too much stretch. They give a really flattering slimming effect, I always look and feel like I lost 5 pounds when I wear them, but without them being too tight. For some reason, the black one is different material, or so it feels; it is stretchy and becomes bunched up and baggy at the abdomen, looking more like I GAINED weight. I already took off the tags and will wear them for that-time-of-the-month, but otherwise I hate them.

    I have an older pair of this style which I love. I've gained a little weight and decided to get another pair a size up. The new pair was actually smaller than my first pair. I know sometimes sizing can be different even within a size so I bought another pair and they were still way too small. Sadly had to return them

    These jeans have a great weight to them. I went up a size from 16 to 17 and they fit perfect. They look more like straight jeans which is what I wanted. I think they’ll be my new favorites.

    I bought these in store so I was able to try them on. I’m so happy with these jeans. I’m pretty petite and finding jeans that flatter me that are the right length and fit in the hip is very difficult. These are so flattering and comfortable. My new favorite jeans.

    Happy Lady - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I used to buy these and loved them but the new proportions are off- I love how it cinches/ sucks in the waist but it’s too tight and then the rest of the jeans from the knee down are baggy- and that was already going up two sizes from my usual. I’m normally a 2 and tried the six. I could maybe try sizing up to 8, but I don’t have a lot of butt and it would be comfortable in the waist but baggy everywhere else. I hope they bring back the old ones because this made me feel so insecure

    The color was nice but sizing was off. I'm between a 10 &12 but I had to size up to a 14. Throughout the day the pants stretch out & I had to keep pulling them up. For reference I'm 5'3" & 165lbs.
