"I wanted to love these jeans. The denim is a good weight and color. The legs look great and the fit is comfortable, but the pockets gape in a way that makes me self-conscious. If I went up a size, they would be too big at the waist, so I can't do that to fix it (although I couldn't exchange them to try it anyway). I don't know if they will relax or stretch after I wash them, but I have to admit that I was disappointed."
"These are the probably the best jeans I have ever owned. They do wonders for my butt and I love the fit- I feel like I look amazing! Great quality! The color is awesome just the right amount of dark wash and it has not faded our rubbed off just yet. The material is soft and stretchy for denim, and I feel like I could have even sized down. I'm happy for the sale because it allowed me to take a chance on these jeans that I had my eye on for a while. I'm fairly tall at 5'10 and wish they were just a little longer, but I naturally have a high waist and long legs. Overall, I love them and would order more in a different wash."
"Looooooveeeeee the fit and feel of these. I have not worn any other jeans since I got these. This was my first purchase and now I am a Universal Standard girlie. Currently looking to buy another pair of jeans from them."
"I loved these jeans. My favorite pair. But the zipper broke after 7 months."
"Great high rise jeans. Had to get them shortened."
"Super comfy and stylish, even if a bit loose around the waist and slightly too long. I love it. Worth every cent."
"The style of these are so cute, I really like the cuff. However, the fit is different than expected. I followed other reviews and sized down and after wearing I would recommend sizing down twice. This was my first time ordering from universal standard and both pairs of jeans I ordered were not sized as advertised and are both way too big on me. I’m disappointed because when I first put them on, they fit great. But after only a couple hours, they are so loose they’re falling down. I am very curvy and never have issues like this. Very disappointed I can’t return, if I order from this company again I’ll be sizing down atleast two sizes."
"The color and fit of these jeans are sooo nice. The cuff is really adorable and the material is quality. They wash pretty well but they should have sewn the cuff all the way around so they don’t get unfolded in the washer."
"I own a few Carols and now also this in Black. The fabric is heavier than the blue options, which makes it really perfect for New England winter. After a dozen or so washes, there is some fading - but nowhere near as much as I expected. And the fading is "even" across the pants. I can dress these up or down, wear with all shoes and sneakers, and feel comforable all day. I have worn on long road trips and on a 6hour flight -- and stayed both confortable and fresh-looking. The pockets are deep enough to hold a phone, but not so deep the disrupt appearance around the thighs, Yes, there is an "black denim" material odor for the first few washes and that goes away long before the color fades. There was no noticeable coloration of other clothes in same wash. Seriously - Universal Standard - please always keep these available!"
"Great jeans, as always. The fabric is a little thinner than I thought it would be, and they are a bit long. I am thinking of getting them hemmed with a one or one and a half inch hem (I have short legs and I am not sure how I feel about the cuffs). Still, all around I will get lots of wear from these."
