I ordered these jeans based on the reviews and the price, and I am so happy I did. I had a baby a month ago and even though I have lost my pregnancy weight I still cannot fit into my old jeans. So I bought these knowing they were stretchy and according to some reviews fit larger than expected. They are relaxed and very comfortable, I will definitely be ordering more of these jeans and probably in a smaller size. I ordered these in a size 16 petite but could definitely fit in a 14. I am 5'3'' and the petite was the perfect length for me. I would recommend these for anyone wanting comfy, everyday jeans. These are made of very soft, stretchy material which did not fade much in the dryer and did not shrink at all. I did not need a belt, like other reviewers did but probably because I still have a pregnancy pooch. My only complaint would be that they do attract lint and dander pretty easily. Still totally worth it though!
