    Target please do not take these away again. My last favorite fit you made you discontinued and I’m not sure if it was to save cost but you chose to go with an unhemmed option that I am unable to wear to work. Please, please, please continue to keep a universal dark wash skinny with hemmed ends on the jeans roster!

    I loved this out of jeans! Skinny jeans, but has stretch, the dark denim color is perfect. I’m 5’3, 127lbs, and 54yrs old! So I love the high waist, holds you in without a muffin top! I sized up to a 6 (normally a 4).

    Pants fit great. Best brand that's worth it's price. Downfall for ordering online is 2 sets of pants were the wrong color and different cut at the end of my pant legs. Will mostly stick to buying my stuff in store.

    These fit really well and they are super black; not faded. I also live that they are high-waisted which made them super comfortable on my stomach. There's a little stretch but not extreme. Great jeans!

    I bought these in store so I was able to try them on. I’m so happy with these jeans. I’m pretty petite and finding jeans that flatter me that are the right length and fit in the hip is very difficult. These are so flattering and comfortable. My new favorite jeans.

    These run small. I am 5’4, 148 lbs and size 10 in these jeans are way too small. Otherwise they seem nice for the price. I have to return.

    Happy Lady - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I used to buy these and loved them but the new proportions are off- I love how it cinches/ sucks in the waist but it’s too tight and then the rest of the jeans from the knee down are baggy- and that was already going up two sizes from my usual. I’m normally a 2 and tried the six. I could maybe try sizing up to 8, but I don’t have a lot of butt and it would be comfortable in the waist but baggy everywhere else. I hope they bring back the old ones because this made me feel so insecure

    Target Enthusiast - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
    These skinny jeans are just what I was looking for! I ordered my regular size in the dark wash and they fit great. They are snug, but flattering. I’m 5’9” and the length is perfect. The material is on the thicker side and stretchy so smooths everything out, holds everything in, and doesn’t get baggy or lose its shape. I bought on sale, so great value too!

    Kissesitsanni - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I’ve had these jeans for a month and wear them to work as a server the first week or two they fit fine but the pants tend to stretch out especially in the waist area. Came home from work today and realized theirs a big hole on one side of the crotch area and another forming on the other side. I should have just saved my 20 bucks.
