I've been a fan of NYDJ jeans for a while as I find their products well made and sizing generally consistent among styles. The trouser jean is a lighter denim which gives it a dressier look, along with the fact that it has rear welt pockets rather than patch pockets. I am 5'6", 120 lbs, and the size 2 is a good fit for me and the length with 2"-3" heels requires no hemming. They are fitted through the thighs, just as the picture shows. So someone looking for a more generous "trouser" cut should look eleswhere. I bought a pair in both the dark wash denim and black denim. The black denim allows for a more dressed up look than the dark wash.
