"This was my very first purchase from Universal Standard, and I'm obsessed! These are wonderful jeans - the fit is excellent, the fabric and tailoring are just right. They are in my top three pairs of jeans that I'll wear on repeat. I couldn't believe when I put them on I felt like they were made for me, and also had a slight lived-in softness right from the start. I wanted light colored jeans and these are perfect."
"Best fitting jeans ever. I have a curvy hourglass shape and usually wear a 12. I'm really loving the fit even just after having a baby, I'd recommend to everyone. High quality!"
"I love the fabric used for these pants! I sometimes have an issue with US jeans getting super baggy after a long day, but this pair of jeans started supportive for multiple wears. Huge fan, would recommend. I would love some appreciative dark washes, perhaps with yellow stitching like on traditional jeans!"
"This is my first pair of jeans from US. Overall I'm happy and kept them. They're thick and feel like solid material. I love the straight but not skinny look. Only two negatives: 29in inseam is too short. They're definitely ankle and would be perfect with a couple extra inches in length. There are also a couple weird color spots that I'm assuming are supposed to be distressed. One spot looks like bleach spilled on it? See photo. But it isn't a big enough problem to want to deal with a return. For reference, I'm 5'9 and usually a 14 or 16 in other brands. The 14 fits well in these, 16 was too big."
"I love the way these jeans feel, but I would love a shorter length. At 29" they are a couple of " too long for me, so that the style of the taper at the ankle really disappears. Keeping them! But will be a 'comfort' wear rather than feeling cute."
"They are very roomy with so much stretch!"
"These are now my favorite jeans. I would buy them in multiple colors - would like a less distressed fabric, but they are the best fit! Wearing a size 16. They are comfortable in the waist and through the hips and thighs but then they taper down to the ankle and are long enough at last! I love the 29" option. They are the best."
"I have purchased these before in Washed Tide and I love that version. The Dark Indigo is another story. The jeans are stiff and itchy and uncomfortable. The fit is fine, but something about the Dark Indigo jeans make these really unpleasant to wear, which is a shame because this cut is flattering for my body type. No amount of washing or fabric softener seems to help make the Dark Indigo any more comfortable to wear."
"Returned - I have more of a 30 inch inseam but figured I'd give these a try - they fit OK, but can tell they are 29 inch. This particular jean I would also recommend sizing up if between sizes. I had another lighter color I already bought and wore a size up, and they fit me better. Figure if I don't love the inseam I better return this other pair (Had panicked before vacation and ordered a lot of jeans since I realized all mine all of a sudden had the dreaded thigh rip!). If 29" inseam is for you though, this is a nice jean. I'd still recommend."
"I've tried several pairs of jeans from US, these are a great length and a good fabric. I wish the fabric was a little more substantial, fingers crossed they wear well."
