Review on GRACE KARIN Straight Pockets AF1011 1 by Doug Virden

Revainrating 4 out of 5

two different styles fit differently at waist

I'm 5'4" tall and about 135-140 lbs. I have more weight in mine Mid body than in my legs or hips.I bought a medium size based on the measurements and found the ruffle waist too tight for comfort.I'm returning my medium to try the large instead.The hips weren't too roomy so I think I'll be fine with large ones. I'll try to update! I bought these for an international flight hoping they'd be very comfortable. EDIT: 5ft 4in, 140 lbs, size 6/8. Me ordered medium in style with no bows at ankles waist was too tight for me so sent them back for the larger ones I switched to ankle boots what I didn't notice from the pictures i st, is that those with bows at the waist are only semi-pleated and those without bows at the waist are pleated. If I understood that, I'd stick with the original style because going up one size was more like going up two sizes with this option. (see photo - yellow large, green medium). Now my legs were too baggy and I had enough room in my waist. In the end I give both back. The pants are soft and good quality but from what I just explained they don't fit. I bet there will be large ones in bowless but my trip is in 7 days and I don't want to order a third pair at the moment. If you are a mid-weight I would say order your true size on those with loops OR larger than those that don't. Nice pants, just not for my figure.

Pros
  • Functional two side pockets, elastic waistband with drawstring, high waist design, cropped length
Cons
