Shopping for jeans is almost as stressful as shopping for a swimsuit.  It's Goldilocks & The Three Bears all over again.
Sometimes I'm a Size 14;  sometimes a 12.

I've never ordered jeans online before so didn't know what to expect.  It turns out I am pleasantly surprised by the fit and feel of these Lee Indigo Petite Ultra Soft jeans.  I purchased these in a Size 12 Petite.

Firstly, they really DO have a smooth, buttery soft 'hand' and feel and were LIGHTWEIGHT;  much lighter than I expected.  While travelling for business in a country known for hot, humid summers, these jeans were extremely comfortable to wear, devoid of the cardboard-y, starchy feel of some dressier, heavier-weight denims.

These jeans wash beautifully and dry quickly whether you run them through a dryer (about 20 minutes), line-dry or leave them out to dry overnight (I prefer the latter.  No shrinkage of material!).  I've noticed they tend to fade quicker than most but then that could be because I wear them constantly.
They also get to look a tad worn out quicker and you may see some pilling on the inside seams after some time but that's BECAUSE the fabric's thinner but really - the price is so cheap that you can buy multiple pairs as backup.  When you consider that many designer jeans (I'm talking NYDJ, 7 For All Mankind, J Brand, Edwin, etc...) cost upwards of $150.00, it's churlish to quibble about the price of these.

FIT & FEEL:

These fit just below the natural waist area and have a wide waistband.
They fit nicely over the bum, don't cling to the thighs and end in a gentle flare.  I detest the look or feel of jeans that taper off into narrow stems at the bottom so I was pleased to find a pair of jeans that felt a bit like dress pants.

I found them to be terrific travel trousers.  Throw on a well-cut jacket and a smart pair of loafers or kicks and you'll look appropriate transiting through ANY airport, ANYwhere.  The obligatory pashmina, shatoosh or scarf keeps you snug and warm in Seat Number 'whatever'.
This is a keeper.

Thank-you for taking the time to read this review - I hope it's been helpful to you in the Great Jean Odyssey.
