I love these! Hoping to get the dark denim ones too. I wanted something to wear with tunics and shorter dresses, and this perfectly fit the bill. Generally, I have not had much luck with skinny jeans. My build is such that they're always tight in the hips and thighs while still loose in the waist, meaning they slide down continually. Not fun, especially as a busy mom of 5. These, however, have enough stretch in them to stay put no matter what! HOORAY! They're a little high-waisted too, which helps, I think. Just to note, they're quite fitted in the seat and crotch, so I wouldn't ever wear them with something shorter than mid-thigh, but that's ok for my purposes. They're fitted in the waist, hips and thigh on me, then relax through the knee and calf, and even puddle just a bit around the ankles. They're tighter than skinny jeans, but looser than leggings. EXACTLY what I was hoping for!!! For reference, I'm 5'6", 145 and generally wear a M/10.
