Founded in 2010 by premium-denim industry pros Lela Becker and Tim Kaeding, MOTHER specializes in collections that present a juxtaposition of hard and soft. The brand evokes teenage rebellion, unconditional love and hilarious insult all at the same time (the company's name is a play on the duality of the word "mother," which can be nurturing or a cuss).
I absolutely love these jeans they are so different. Very flattering, perfect high waist. I’m 5’4” so a tad too long but perfect with a platform shoe or heel. Expensive but worth it.

Not as cute as pictured
I don’t often spend this much on a pair of jeans, but I do love mother denim. I was really excited about these jeans, but in person they do not have what looks like a slight bell bottom in the photo, they are more of a straight leg and it was just a very boxy look and not flattering on me at all. Also, the stripes on the side are not as dark blue as shown on the website, especially on one of the sides. I know jeans can vary a little but these did not live up to what I hope they would be and for $360 You need to love these on you. As for the size I am usually a 26-27 and I found the 27 fit fine so I did not need to size up but sadly I have to return. I’m sure I’ll see more of mother denim in the future that I love.

love Mother but fit not as expected for me
Love Mother Jeans and fit i is usually spot on for me. But these were large and all aspects, the waist, the legs and The lengt. But length being too long is always expected as I’m 5’3”.

Stiff denim
I couldn’t get these over my hips granted I have wider hips and athletic figure. These would look best on a straighter figure. The denim I found to be rigid and not even sure if it would break in a whole lot. Cute piece though.

Runs small
I wear a 30 or 31 in Mother and the 31 in these is tight.

so cute but too small
I bought two sizes to try- my normal in mother and one up, both too small in the waist, normal size I couldn’t button at all. I’d prob try 2 sizes up but no longer available :(
