"I bought these on sale and I wish I’d bought three more. I ordered a size down from my usual 20 and the 18 fit PERFECTLY. I had a pair of jeans in 1992 that fit like this: no gap in the high waist, no need to hem, relaxed but tapered legs. Perfection. I haven’t found that fit anywhere since then, until now! I will be stalking these to buy a few more pairs!"
"I love these jeans so much that this is my second order! The fit is nice at the waist but loose in the leg. The denim is a little lightweight which is worrisome for those of us whose thighs rub together when we walk, but for me that just means I can wear these on warm days."
"Liked so well in indigo that I bought black. Looks like a structured jean but the denim is soft and flexible. I find the volume of the barrel balancing and the jean falls nicely to a great length for me. I sized down."
"At 5'3", I wasn't sure about this style. I took a chance and not only do I love them but I get tons of compliments on them. This was my first time purchasing and I could have gone down in size but with fit guarantee it's easy to exchange things. I'm officially hooked on Universal Standard."
"I usually hate my sideview in jeans. That was changed with the Dakota Twisted Leg. The design is slimming -- and looks super cute! The material, which is very soft, has the right "give" but enough structure to be a true denim. I highly recommend!"
"True to size fit. I'm on the petite side, so the length was great for me. Fabric feels really nice and the silhouette is very true to the photo. I've already recommended to family and friends"
"it would be really nice if these jeans came in multiple lengths--what's a nice top-of-foot on the model is an aggressive crop on me at 5'8". The fabric is a nice color and soft, but tends to stretch after a wearing or two, which makes the knees baggy. A little less stretch, like 2% or 4%, would lead to a sturdier garment. That said, they fit me well in the waist, the pockets are nice, and the overall silhouette is fun."
"I had given up on hard pants. These look structured but feel soft and stretchy. Give a really balanced proportion. They do run big, I sized down."
"Fantastic! Not only did they fit well but they’re incredibly comfortable from the moment I tried them on!"
"So comfortable right away. Can be dressed up or down. I usually wear an 18 and exchanged for 16. Could have probably even gone down to 14."
