These are the perfect jeans for little kids. The best thing about them is the elastic waistband. Going to the potty is much easier for small children than in more elaborate standard jeans. This makes the whole process smoother and quicker to encourage self-reliance when the child can easily put it down and pick it up again. You look great too. The cuts, very light jeans and dark black and gray camouflage, are also very different from all the other jeans we've had before. It's nice to add a little variety to the boy's pants wardrobe. Sometimes a boy's wardrobe can be a bit mundane and boring so it's great to see some fresh new styles in it. They are true to size. They tolerate washing and drying in machines well.
