I absolutely love these jeans. They're quite flattering and very durable. I've lost about 50 pounds in the last year and a half and during that time I bought a size 8 in French Press, then last week purchased a size 4. Size 4 was a bit tight around my stomach, but after 2 days of walking around in them they've completely loosened up. (I can still wear the size 8s even if they're a bit loose, and they still look good.) I'm not sure about the length issues some reviewers have, as I'm 5'5" and have to turn the bottoms up to avoid grazing the ground while wearing flats. The only drawback of these jeans is the back pocket flaps flare out and, because they don't lay flat, they'll often catch on the backs of chairs, door frames, etc. I will buy these again, especially if Amazon carries other dark(er) washes.

All said and done, I'm very happy.
