Actually, there is nothing wrong with the product. The problem is in the sizing.  I have bought the same pair of jeans many times before from other retailers.  The size specified on Amazon does not match the size of other pairs I have bought.  Without being able to try it on, there is no way to know that ahead of time.  So, I returned them.

I love Amazon and buy almost everything from them.  However, I don't think I will be buying jeans from them again any time soon unless they figure out how to standardize the sizing so that it is actually the size you get or have a way to virtually try them on.
