I love GV jeans!!!  They are the best.  I never buy anything else because the fit is fantastic and they never wear out.  However, having said that, this particular pair of jeans is not like the usual Petite Amanda Classic that I buy and the legs are a little bit longer and wider than usual.  If anyone out there remembers the stove pipe jeans of yesteryear, that is what the fit on the bottom is like.  Usually I wear 12 short petite.  The label must say both short and petite, not just one or the other.  Having said that, this time the short petite are just an eensy bit longer than usual. I don't know why.  So I will need to have them altered.  I have never, ever had to alter a pair of GV jeans since I bought my first pair through Amazon, perhaps 20 years ago? So it's not a big deal, but I wonder what happened.  I ordered a pair from another vendor a few months ago with the tapered leg and it fits fine.  Go figure.
