These jeans are lightweight, low rise, with lots pockets and incredibly comfortable.  While they are not made for fashion, they still look good. Highly recommended for the active girl!  I am 5'9" and 160 lbs and wear a size 10 in these jeans.  I went hiking in them all day and was so impressed with how they felt.  They do stretch out during the day, more than other jeans but that was not a problem for me. The pockets allow you to carry license, money, phone, keys and more without having a purse to tote around.  Seriously, these are best cut jeans I've ever worn.
