American ApparelWomen's High-Waist Jean

The sizing for these jeans is all over the place. I wasn't sure of my proper size after gaining ~25 lbs due to 10 months of dealing with a foot injury and surgery. My waist measured 32" and hips 42", and a pair of denim shorts I have in a 31 fit slightly snug. I ordered these in a 32 based on the size guide. They were MASSIVE - several inches too big in the waist and horribly baggy through the hips and thighs. I reordered them in a 30 thinking they may still be too loose given how big the 32s were. Wrong. The 30s are snug, and any tighter would be borderline suffocating in the waist. They work, but not as comfortably as I'd like. I am keeping them hoping the fabric will relax, but I would return them if I didn't need a pair of jeans as I slowly get back to my pre-injury body. The jeans look nice and the fabric feels sturdy, but good luck finding the right size. If you don't have the patience for multiple orders and returns, don't bother.

TLDR: Got size 34 but is 36 inches wide. Runs big but no stretch. Love the way the jeans look.The reviews say that this pants run small, but I had the opposite experience. My waist measures 33 inches and I ordered 34 due to the review saying it runs a little small. The pants were 34 but measured 36 inches. So based on measurements you should really order a little small. I love the style so I am reordering size 31 hoping it will be about two inches too big like the pants I received. I did notice there is no stretch so that might be the reason people are saying to order a bigger size.

For reference: I am a bit over 5'8, long in the legs and in the torso, and usually wear between a 27 or 28 in Levi's high rise styles, or a 4 in most other brands. I have straight proportions and not much of an ass.I bought these in a 28/32. They are slightly more snug than the Levi's sky highs I recently bought in 28 (I wish I'd gone with 27 in those), but also zero stretch so...that slight difference means that until they've broken in some, sitting down is going to be uncomfortable. This is fine though, and expected. I wanted real denim that would wear in the my exact shape.The medium blue wash is even and not too bright, with no fake whiskering or faded thighs. Again, the perfect starting point for future well-worn denim.My only real concern is that the rise is a little short for my long torso, so the crotch is a bit close. Only a bit tho - not camel toe close, so I'm hopeful that will improve with wear also.Length is great. A little long, even. Thank goodness. I'm tired of rocking every regular pair of jeans I get as "ankle" jeans. These are the perfect length for a casual cuff. Plus they're quite tapered, yay!Lastly, these jeans deserve praise for having standard back pockets. So many women's jeans have sized-down pockets at weird angles or spaced too close together. These are just....regular. Like a pair of Wranglers. The front pockets however are super shallow. I'll be sewing in new lining to make em deeper.

im normally a 25 and thats what i got, but i could barely squeeze into them. they are nicely made jeans though but order like 2-3 sizes up

Overall I love these jeans. I'm giving it 3 stars tho because the color is completely different from the color in the picture they show online. I was looking for a very specific shade of blue Jean, which is the one they listed, but the color I received was a more grey/light blue. I kept the jeans because I loved the fit but I'm removing one star for inaccuracy. I took away another star because I came back to look for another pair, a little smaller and this time in black, and noticed that the price is now set at $44! Wtf! I paid $84 for mine. That's just a little ridiculous. I wanted another pair from this vendor but seeing how unreliable the color, fit, and price is... I'm just gonna take my business somewhere else. Too bad tho because I love these jeans!Some people say size up but in my case I didn't need to, if anything I should've sized down because they're a little too baggy after you've worn them for a while and broken them in. I wear them to work (I work 10 hour days and mix between walking around and sitting down) and they're very comfortable. I've had no issues there. I've been throwing them in the dryer when they get too baggy but are not ready to wash yet, and that helps. Great jeans, but you guys need a better team.

to start, I’m 5’5”, 120lbs, 34-25-38.These jeans fit like a glove honestly. I saw a lot of reviews talking about the material seeming “cheap” and how these AA jeans aren’t like the ones they’ve made in the past. Maybe I was just lucky, but the jeans I got are SUPER thick and heavy. There is NO stretch, so you’ll have to break them in by just wearing them for a few hours. I’m small but pretty curvy and I love the way these jeans fit on me! They compliment my body type just right. Only issues I have are the fact that they have no stretch which makes it super uncomfortable to sit down. I would strongly advise you to size up by 1. When I originally bought a pair back in 2013, I could fit a 24 easily. This time around I decided to go with a 26 knowing my waist size would probably fit a 25. I’m so glad I followed that advice! while the jeans are a little too big in the waist(pic #3), it was nothing a belt couldn’t fix as you can see in the photos, and they flatter me very well. Had I gone smaller I wouldn’t have been able to get them over my hips, they are already snug as is. overall, I’d highly recommend these jeans. They gave me the perfect “mom jean” fit while still accentuating my curves. I’m so happy I took a chance and purchased anyway despite the reviews.

The material is super thick, awesome!, but it’s so thick and stiff that’s it’s uncomfortable. When putting them on, I had the hardest time pulling them up. When I managed to get them on, I could hardly bend over the material was so uncomfortable and stiff to move in.Also, the legs are wayyyy too long. I’m not that small, I’m 5’4”, but the legs go on for milessss. If you’re someone who doesn’t want to be able to move and you have super long legs, this product is for you.Measurements: 23 waist, 5’4”Stars: 3 (trying to be nice)Would not recommend product.

Just did not care for fit. Quite heavy denim.

Fit was baggy mom jeans (fit larger than expected). Very long legs - needed to cut 4" off the legs to make them wearable. Casual baggy pants. Good quality jean.

These jeans are honestly so cute, but the material has ZERO stretch. The jean material is so stiff that you can't bend, wiggle, lunge, or really do any kind of activity in them. I normally wear a 25 in jeans and I ordered a 27. They fit me perfect around the waist, so definitely size up at least one size or two if your cautious like me. They have that perfectly fitted in the waist, yet baggy in the leg cool girl look to them. But you must sacrifice movement if you want these pants. With that said, I ended up sending them back. I just can't justify a standing only pant for that high of a price tag.

Material is very stiff, not sure if it will improve after washing. Fit is weird, I am usually a 28 in jeans 5’4 125lbs, I listened to the reviews and got a 29 these jeans are tight on the butt and legs but loose around stomach area but if I sized down they would not be able to fit. Not really worth it in my opinion.Also Difficult to sit in….

Easily turning into one of my top three jeans. I truly love the fit. These jeans have an insane amount of tummy control.I am a 26 in Levi’s (wedgie being my favourite) and decided to buy these at the same size. I found it unbearably tight on the first day. If you cannot handle that then I recommend you size up. The issue isn’t the size, it’s the material. In theory, it would be your perfect size after being broken in but the stiffness of the material (and I own a lot of 100% cotton jeans) is shocking.After the first two wears, the material started to soften nicely while still having a nice amount of tummy control. Makes your butt look super cute!
