Levi Strauss Signature Gold Women's Modern Skinny Jeans Mid-Rise Stretch Denim (Also Available in Plus)

As a short, plus size woman, I struggle to find any long pants that I don't have to shorten/hem up or adjust. Hallelujah! These jeans actually fit out of the package. They're comfortable, they look like jeans (not jeggings) on me and I've washed them at least 10 times but they still look great, fit well, and feel fabulous. At a great price, I definitely recommend giving these a try!

I love these jeans. This is the second pair that I’ve ordered over the years. They are stretchy which makes it comfortable to wear. They are more fitted after a wash but soon stretch out as the day goes on, so it might be good to wear a belt with them. For me they’re a little big in the ankles so wearing boots over my jeans can be awkward but it’s not too bad.

Do not go by the Amazon-page posted size chart or the Levi one in the image array when you place your order. You're going to have to make your best guess between the two as they are both off by a couple of inches (in waist, hip, and length).This confusing issue with two different sizing charts was at the time of my purchase. It is possible this information could change in the future. For now, this is my experience.Assume the numbers the post has listed are short (27), medium (29), and tall (31). These numbers don't accurately reflect the actual length of the jeans. For example, because I was so confused about the sizing information and lost weight in recent months, I ordered two sizes, both the same length. I opted for the 31 as I have a 31-inch inseam, thinking that is what I would get. Now, everyone is physically different. I've known men who were 6 feet tall who have a 31-inch inseam and super short people who somehow have a 33. To clarify, I'm hovering at 5ft4in, weight ~140lbs, with ~30-inch waist with 33-34-inch hips and, as I said, a 31-inch inseam. I have more butt than I do a gut, full thighs (no gap), and an hourglass shape (equal shoulder to hip ratio with a slimmer waste). While others give some details about their proportions to help guide others to a size that might work, they neglect to mention other things like their actual inseam, waist, weight, or body type.I order two colorways (darker wash story-sky and lighter harmony) in two sizes (4 pairs of jeans total) in 10 and 12. I selected the 31 on the Amazon page, thinking I'd get 31-inseam. No. Again, very confusing information regarding inseam ordering. Both the 10 and 12 fit, but I opted to keep the Harmony 12 since these are skin-tight jeans and somehow fit better than the darker wash in the same size.My only real issue is with the length. I received two pairs in 10L 30x32 and two pairs in 12L 31x32. So the 31 on the sale post means 32 long. Why they have them listed: 27, 29, and 31 makes no sense to me. Just assume the 27 means short, the 29 means medium, and the 31 means long regardless of the number. They don't represent the actual length. Again, I requested the 31 and got 32, which doesn't even match what the image sizing Levi provided. Had it, I would have ended up with a 30x34, as 34 is their long measurement.I was only able to keep one pair out of the four I ordered. The lighter of the two shades in the 12Lx32 fit better than the darker wash. I returned the rest and retried ordering using their wacky method.This time I opted for the 29. I got the 30x31 this time around. It is like jeans-lotto. At least I know what my overall size is. Even though it too didn't match either sizing chart. The one on the sales page says 10 = 32.25in waist, and 12 = 31.50in waist, which is obviously a mistake, and on the Levi sizing chart, 10=32.25 and 12=33.5. My 12L was 31Wx32L.I have no clue who to trust or which chart I can go by. So I just went for the next size down (29) and crossed my fingers. Thankfully, they fit.The jeans themselves are like wearing a stretchy corset but for my legs and butt. I look fantastic in these jeans. They are something of a labor to get in and out of if you're not accustomed to wearing skinny jeans. I'm certainly not. I tend to lean to boot cut, but I have some cute sweaters and wanted something with a flat front I could wear them with. There are no buckles, buttons, zippers, belt loops, or even pockets on some of the jeans. Your sweater or shirt will lay flat and not get rubbed by a protruding button or hard edge corner where your jeans meet, assuming you get the jeggings style. These are completely flat and make your tummy appear flatter with the design. The pockets on the front are fake, unless you get the pants with the loops. Some of those have pockets. Ladies are pretty much used to having near non-existing pockets anyway. Which sucks. But for this style of jeans, it makes sense. The two back pockets are generous in size. I have a place for my phone. These are incredibly stretchy and form-fitting. The material feels good, though I'm not sure how it'll hold up after they're washed a few times. I can only hope they keep their shape.

These are definitely proper black! A nice deep, rich color. They are what you would expect from a pair of Levi's - good quality, sturdy, comfy, thicker than most... This fit does have a bit less give compared to the 311 shaping skinny. I've gained a few pounds so I'm not quite able to fit into a 31 right now, but I can still manage to squeeze into a 31 shaping skinny. Not so much with these or else I would provide a picture of me actually wearing them. 🫤 These are also going to attract pet hair like crazy, but unfortunately most black clothes do...

Nice fit

These jeans are true to size, however, they are not skinny jeans like they’re listed as. The lower half fit like straight leg jeans.

Great pants can't complain, these are durable and comfortable. The pants last long in quality and don't fade fast!! Thank you company that made pants for the durable and the comfort of the pants, Thank you.

Not to be dramatic, but these are the best jeans I’ve ever worn. Even after almost two years of pretty consistent wear, they’re perfect. Maybe better than perfect if that’s possible? They get more comfortable and soft every time I wash them. I have some sensory issues and don’t really like the feeling of jeans, but these are totally different. The ONLY negative things I could possibly say about them are 1) they aren’t as high-waisted as I’d like in my advanced age 2) the zipper occasionally has a mind of its own and slides down. But that’s probably more a me thing and the way my waistline is set up after three kids. They are great. I’m about to order another pair.
