Signature by Levi Strauss & Co. Gold Label Women's Totally Shaping Skinny Jean

Fabulous! Im SO relieved! I NEVER wear skinny jeans because I tend to wear either actual leggings....or bootcut jeans and just never got on the "jeggings" and skinny-jean train. However....I wear tons of knee-high boots and although they paid easily with my collection of standard and fleece leggings....they are such a pain to wear with jeans. Always stuffing the legs down into the boots and trying to get it all even. UGH. So finally, I decided to try some jeans that felt and functioned like legging....but were still real jeans. I chose Levis because ever since my early 20s I find that they may not have tons of frills and bling....but their sizing is right on point for me no matter what the style. These are no different. I actually could have ordered a size smaller, but was unsure of how "skinny" would fit me since I dont wear them. I ordered the "tall" because normally "regular" in ANY pant is too short for me. These are a tiny bit longer than I expected....but fit perfectly from top to bottom. No pulling, bunching, or floppy areas. Most importantly, they didnt get looser as I wore them. They stayed fitted and tight from top to bottom. The color is VERY dark (they were sold out of the other shades and Id have preferred slightly lighter) but I actually really like how they look and the color is growing on me. I wore them to my familys house and my mother said that I looked like I had "lost weight". I dont know if I actually did lose weight or if these pants are incredibly slimming....but thats a bonus for sure! The "top panel for slimming" isnt really notable and Im not sure how much it truly helps any more than a well-fitting higher cut pant of any type....but they are definitely high enough that theres NO tummy bulge or dreaded "muffin top". They dont slip down or fold over when you sit. The leg and butt area are super-comfortable and really flattering no matter what your body type and frankly....theyve changed my mind about skinny jeans and flexible jeans in general. These are almost as comfortable as my standard, thin, barely-there leggings. And thats stunning to me because they are fully-functional jeans! I really hope they stock more colors because I will be sticking with this style and brand and buying lighter colors for Summer and Spring styles the moment theyre in stock. These are cut perfectly for high boots OR for dainty Summer Sandals and you can definitely wear them confidently with sheer Spring styles OR bulky Winter tunics. I absolutely love them so far! *I will add photos and update because I know that can help someone who may have a similar body type as I do, but for now....Im 57 and buy "tall" because Im very long in the thigh area and leggy overall. But I have some pudge around my middle and range from 10 to 12 in fitted jeans/pants mostly because of my belly. My thighs and butt are mostly standard, but these would definitely flatter a curvier butt and thigh. I sized up to a 12 and think next time Id probably get a 10 instead. So I would NOT buy whatever your "higher size" tends to be. They run very true to size and there is plenty of flex to avoid unsightly bulges*. Truly a "slimming, stays fitted" jean when finding those in ANY style is so rare. LOVE THEM and totally recommend!! *****UPDATE FEBRUARY 24, 2017******* As you can see, I added photos. Ive worn these jeans so many times since posting this original review that I cannot even count. And whether casual or fancy, they have held their form (which is the biggest issue I find with both regular jeans as well as leggings). Ive washed them, but not dried them (line-dry only) and they lost no form and continued to stay true especially in the waist, which is the area that I find even the most expensive jeans start to slag, fall, or fold. While it may not always be unflattering to others...its always uncomfortable when that happens. Ive not had that experience with these at all. There is no shrinkage in length (important to me since Im long in the thick -->crotch area) and no other shrinkage Ive noted. These are perfect for a tall-not-tall person like me who has weirdly-long legs....but isnt truly a "tall" (I think "talls" are 58 and above, but Im 57 and cannot wear most "Regular" pants). The color also stayed true. And in dark jeans, thats unusual. I washed them in a "delicates" bag, but but them on normal Permanent Press and put other stuff in with them. The color didnt bleed and stain my other clothes and they fit just like the first time after line-drying. Again...I sized up on these and would probably dry them in the dryer simply because they were bigger than I needed to begin with. But if you are not planning on heat-drying these (putting them on cool/tumble or line drying) there is no color bleed or shrinkage at all that I can detect. They still stay "high" on the waist and dont flop, fall, or fold after multiple wearings and still look good with heavy Winter sweaters or with delicate tops that show the waist on these pants. PLEASE start selling more colors of these for Summer and Spring. If you hate Skinny Jeans, Jeggings, Leggings, or even regular Jeans....these will be the pair that changes your mind! Absolutely buy these! Theyre amazing in every way!

When researching jeans, the reviews we’re incredibly helpful. So here’s the details. I’m 5’3” and 130, waist is 29 inches, hips are 38 inches. I bought a size 4 medium. They are stretchy, even the front pockets! Made for a comfortable fit, but I was worried they might stretch and sag. After two days, they’ve held up perfectly, no sag at the knee. I got the medium because people said they ran short and I have a little bunch at the foot, but they sit nicely in boots and I’ll be able to wear them with flats as well. They sit at or just below my belly button, which means I never have to stop and pull them up. I love the gala color, it’s solid without too many distracting fade lines that many washes have. I doubt I’m a true size 4, but that’s what I’ve been wearing in the Denizen’s line from target, so I took a chance. I’ve gotten compliments at work, so that’s a nice feeling. Can’t wait to order more.

These are incredibly comfortable and I will be ordering a second pair soon. Im 57", ~180lbs, and wear a size 12 in most pants. I struggle finding things that fit my waist and arent too tight in the thighs, or fit my legs without being too loose over the booty/waist. The thing that catches me up a little is how stretchy they are; theyre way stretchier than any other skinny jeans Ive owned. I almost wonder if I could get away with a size 10 in these and still be comfortable, especially with the way jeans break in over time. I think these fit and have a flattering look; they dont give you a saggy-looking booty from poorly sized/placed pockets like a lot of less-expensive pants do. The mid-rise feels a little high, but Id much rather have more than less. I like the dark wash and HATE pants with all the distressing/bleaching, so these are good for me. The inseam is just the right length for me.

This is the best pair of jeans I have ever owned. I weigh 169lbs, at height, 51". My waist is 33-35 inches. My hips are 45 inches. I ordered the 14 SHORT and got exactly that. Hooray, they arent stiff, they hug my body without applying too much pressure to my sensitive areas. This is a 10/10.
