I really wish I had listened to the other reviewers.  These are STRETCH jeans, no two ways about it.  They should put that in the description.  Also, they are extremely FLARED to the point of almost being bell bottoms.  They are not anything at all like my understanding of what "boot cut" jeans are, and I have being wearing boot cut for many, many years.  These jeans are extremely unflattering, and not at all as pictured either.  Buyer beware!
