I have been eying these pants for years, and I wanted SO badly to be in love with them...and maybe that's why I am underwhelmed. I was disappointed in 1 aspects: durability and fit.
Durability:
After a single wear with no obvious abrasion and no washing, these pants developed horrible pilling in multiple spots--so badly that I returned the first pair. I ordered new ones hoping that it was an isolated product defect, but the same thing happed to the new pair after washing. I have not tried removing the pilling yet, but will have to do so for continued wear.
Fit: I am 5'2" and generally wear a size 2-4 and got the size 4 brenna pant in short. The length great, and I am happy with the fitted quality of the pant legs. My issue is with the button/zipper keeper. These pants fit great in the waist and a size larger would be huge. However, the button pulls in such a way that it causes the zipper keeper to pucker and gape open. As long as your zipper is up...not a huge issue. But not very flattering, and I need to wear a belt to cover it up.
They are incredibly comfortable, so if that's all you're after, then by all means pick these pants!
