My all-time fav jeans are the Wrangler Ultimate Riding Jeans, so I must admit at first I was almost disappointed with these.  The more I wore them, the more I liked them.  The As Real As Wrangler Relaxed Fit Straight Leg Jean is super stretchy.  If you want them to feel like jeans, size down from your normal size.  Otherwise they are very relaxed and feel like sweats or pjs.  The waist is very high as it hits just below my belly button.  The front rise is 10+ inches and the back is 15+, so are high-waisted but are way cuter through the seat and thigh than "mom jeans."  I love these for wearing around the house and running errands with a big, long sweater on my lazy weekend days.  The stretchy waistband doesn't pinch or bind at all.  If you like a higher waist jean but don't want "mom jeans" these are super comfy and cute!  I bought the 'As Real As' in BootCut Leg too and they are a tad more stylish and just as comfy.  I love them both for lazy day comfort when I still want to look cute.  I'll keep my Ultimate Riding Jeans for riding, but I'll be wearing the 'As Real As' jeans for hanging out around the house.
