Crop Wide Leg Linen Blend Pants

I ordered these in a small, I'm a size 8. They fit, but the waist is a bit snug. Also, I see what folks mean about the zipper, the one I got isn't faulty but it was very sticky to zip up the first time. Also, the wash directions are "dry clean only," which doesn't make sense for a pair of pants that are linen/cotton. They are a heavier fabric, which will make them good for 3 season wear. I'm going to give them a chance.

Bought these pants for summer (linen/cotton) blend, and while the material is delightful, the zipper is anything but!! I followed the sizing suggestion and sized down, which was fine. But the zipper only works flawlessly when not wearing the pants. As soon as I put them on, the zipper seems to get stuck at the top (not because the pants are tight)!! I fear that this will lead to the zipper breaking after a few uses, so I will sadly return the pants.

When I first saw these online, I thought I'd take a chance as I was unsure how it would fit on my petite frame. Now that I have them, I really love them and these pants have become a staple in my spring/summer wardrobe. I have the dark navy and it complements my medium golden tan skin tone, and they pair nicely with a lot of my tops as a neutral bottom. The quality is also well made, and while I would've preferred a garment that was not Dry Clean Only, I still think it makes a worthy addition to my wardrobe. High recommend, given 4 stars because of the care requirements.

I actually like the heavier linen, it makes these perfect to wear in cooler weather. The wide legs are all the way down, which I also like, for that true flowing wide leg pant. The elastic back waistband doesn't bother me as it's barely noticeable. All that being said, despite fitting and being the correct size, the zipper digs into my waist and is very uncomfortable, is hard to zip up, but I can never get the little hook & eye closed so the zipper slips a little as you wear them making for an unfinished look at the waist.
