These were on sale for a HUGE discount, so I kept them, but I was disappointed. These pants looked so promising online! I am 5'8" and 140 lb, usually comfy in size 10 slacks, but these were so tight I ended up having to unzip the waist about halfway down, just so I could sit down & still breathe. :-( They are curiously made, with a loose panel on the inside of the waist (in front of the tummy) that partially detaches with velcro - maybe that's why they're supposedly flattering? But it just felt like too much extra material. I will keep them in hopes I might lose a little weight, but they were supposedly "my" size already.
