Review on Shires Ladies Aubrion Oakham X Small by Trae Joubert

At first I loved them when I received them and tried them on! Unfortunately, after the first wash, I put them in the barn to ride out. The first thing I noticed was that the elastic on the waistband is coming apart at the back. You can't see anything but I definitely FEEL the elastic in the waistband was only held together by a small piece at the bottom of the elastic. The top of the elastic is not connected (I'll try to show it in the photo), so I'm afraid that at any moment the entire elastic can come loose on the belt. Second, I put my phone in my pocket and while driving it fell out. BOTTOM pocket (see photo). Otherwise I really liked the weight, fit and full fit of these tights. I'm just very disappointed in the workmanship and am hoping for a refund on return even if they were worn.
