These are super comfortable jeans! I've never owned any 7 jeans before and so I jumped at the chance to try them out and review them, since $200 bucks for a pair of jeans is quite an investment. (When I started buying jeans that were over $50 bucks, I thought I was splurging.) The denim is broken in and comfortable. It has some Lycra woven through the denim so it stretches and moves with you, but it not too tight like other Lycra jeans.

My one issue (besides the price) is the sizing seems weird. I got these thinking they'd be tight or too small as I had gained weight recently and my size 8 pants were all tight and uncomfortable. Since a 29 is usually around a 7 or 8 I expected these to be small (though I was hoping I'd slim down to my usual size within the month so I went ahead and got them.) Well imagine my surprise when I tried them on and not only did they fit, they were actually a tad big in the waist. I need to wear a belt to keep them up. It seems clear to me that vanity sizing has gotten a little out of control for women. I got another pair of 7 jeans for men in a 32, thinking they's be my comfy slightly baggy jeans and I swear they fit the same around the waist as the 29. Men don't get vanity sizing apparently. I know sizes like 6 or 8 or 12 don't mean anything, but when you use the actual circumference of the waist as the sizing, then I would expect some consistency.

Other than that, I think they are really nice high quality jeans. Not sure they are $150 more comfortable than my regular jeans, but they are very very nice jeans.
