I have these in java and black. I love having a zipper on the side. The flaps aren't my favorite but they don't stick out horribly. The stretch is just the right amount to make them comfortable but not stretch out. I agree with other reviewers who mentioned that these pants widen quite quickly. I have a bit too much material at the sides of my lower hip as if I should get a size smaller but then they wouldn't fit through the waist and rear. They are a heavier fabric and will be nice in colder weather. They wrinkle and don't look as good at the end of the day as the holly pant fabric on the other hand, I think they are more durable. Maybe it's just my furry pets' fault but these come out of the dryer with fuzz on them and my other Coldwater pants don't do that.

I'm 5'2 and weigh 140 so I usually get petite large size in all of CC clothing. The 'give' in the fabric of these pants give it a perfect fit for me and it also feels great. Highly versatile wear. One caution: if you are under 5'2, then the inseam might be a little short for you -- make sure to check the inseam for each length in the listing. However, I love it and have 3 pairs.

The length is good and they fit good around the waist.

These fit at the waistband and then immediately started flaring out so they were baggy at the bottom of my hips and very very wide in the legs. I'm petite with an 'athletic' figure. This is a cut that would only work on a tall, curvy woman. They're going back.

I ordered both colors to put away for winter at this fabulous pricepoint. The pants are sized to the t and have a bit of stretch and look fantastic. I recommend them highly..

I just bought a second pair of these black pants. I like the fit and the look of them. The fabric is a little heavy for late spring and summer, but perfect for autumn and winter. The pants are a great buy.

Bought my regular size 12P and after wearing these pants one time they hang in the rear and in the front. Feel like my pants are falling off.

These pants are substantial, lovely in color, and feels great on the skin....but looks like a trouser pant on me. The waist is slightly large and the legs are FULL....not what I expected. I'm not sure if I would wear these in late spring and summer, as they are heavy, but would be great for winter months. Still debating if I will send them back, since they don't offer sizes smaller than 4, which is what I wear and purchased.

The best back pants I've ever owned. They make me look about ten pounds thinner. And that makes me happy!

These are truly the best black pants I have ever purchased. The fit and look are fabulous! I never write reviews, but am making it a point to for this product. I am 5'2" and a size 4 so I purchased size 4P and they are a perfect all over fit. I really love the stretch in them. They make my curvy figure look very slim. I also love the size zip feature so that many types of tops, jackets, or sweaters can be worn with them and they keep the waistline smooth. I wish these were available in other colors and also a capri version for summertime.
