Lucy High Waist Wide Leg Jeans

So far, I really like these "jeans" and plan to keep them but I have major issues with how they're marketed on here. First, they aren't denim, so they shouldn't be called jeans at all. They are more of a twill-like heavier stretchy cotton fabric and they run a little small (I'm between a 6 and an 8 and can usually go with either size but I definitely wouldn't fit in the size 6 for these). I was really hoping for denim for its durability and warmth during cooler fall and winter days. Second, there is nothing "high" waist about them. Maybe they're high waist if you're used to wearing low rise but these are mid-rise, at best. The top of the waistband falls about half an inch below my belly button. That being said, they are good pants and are very comfortable (I can sit crossed legged on the floor in them) and would work well for weekends and casual Fridays at work.
