I bought two pairs of these jeans almost 2 years ago, and wore them almost every day from then until now. They fit PERFECTLY when I bought them, and stretched when I gained about 15 pounds. I lost the weight, plus some, and they stretched with me again. Sadly, I just threw them out because they had so many holes in the thighs and butt that I just couldn't fix anymore. But for nearly 2 years of continuous wear, I consider that pretty impressive!! Buying another 2 pair now... :)
