The color was the only thing fantastic about these jeans.  First, i don't know who is responsible for measuring these, but they are the exact same size as my Vigoss 28s, and I ordered a 29.  The 29s I have in blue jeans were more consistent with other makes.  Second, the blue jeans are a nice, heavy duty fabric, and these feel thin and cheap.  Third, the ankles are so small that we needed an extra set of hands to get them off our feet.  We have small ankles and narrow feet, so this is a bit of a surprise to us.  So, IF you still want these, order at least one size larger than you normally order and only order them if you have small ankles and feet.

We have a size three daughter, a size five daughter, a size seven daughter and a niner.  The three could get them over her ankles, but they were too big to fit her.  The five couldn't get them over her feet but they were a good, albeit tight, fit.  The seven and nine were out of luck.
