The Half Pipe High Waist Ankle Barrel Jeans

I ordered a 30 since the sizing recommendation was to size up if in-between. I can wear a 29 in a lot of brands fairly comfortably, but wanted a little more room in these. It was a mistake. The barrel leg gives you extra room in the hip/thigh, so the 30 inch waist was too big and created an overall sloppy look. Will exchange for a 29 and see if those are better.

Was looking for a barrel leg style denim that wasn’t too exaggerated and found these. I’m 5’4, size 24 and these are great! They come down to my ankle so a tad longer than on the model but I don’t mind. They are fitted through the waist and, I didn’t catch this when ordering, have some stretch. I prefer my denim to be rigid and 100% cotton but the feel of this fabric isn’t super stretchy and is comfortable for a full days wear at work and also chasing toddlers. The color is perfect, like an eggnog off white.

I did end up returning these, but I loved the look and wish they would have worked. I ordered my normal size and they fit well, although I think I may give them another shot with a size down. These jeans are so comfortable and the color is perfect - a nice creamy bone. The reason I returned was because the wide leg looked a little too overwhelming on my slim 5’5” frame.
