1st, I HATE sitting in tight jeans, but I love the flattering look of jeans in general.  ALSO Im very picky about leggings, leggings need to be thick and a wide waist band to eliminate the cutting of the gut..LOL I need to be a designer .. SO FAR these were great, Im not thin or fat but Im wearing these with tall boots to balance the legs.  My complaint about stretch jeans is the leg/hip wrinkles and lack of ability to retain shape when you sit in them for a couple hours... So I have not worn to work yet and will update on the shape retention later... These are way off my budget for jeans or leggings but will return if they do not live up to a 98dollar expectation **FYI Macys carries these and you can try them on, Im a try on girl my shape is not a cookie cutter shape.
