I liked all these jeans fit but the waist was too small my waist is a size 25 and these were a size 24 so the waste was definitely too tight the lower part of the jeans was just a tiny bit snug but not too not too bad not enough to return it but the waist was unfortunately too tight. I would go a size up and see if that works for you. I know that they don't have a size 25 which is inconvenient and unfortunate and would be a big help to the customers who are a size 25. However, if you are looking for pants that fit the 26 would probably suit you better.This model of Joe's jeans is the best for someone who doesn't have a lot of curves.This is my 4th pair. I love how soft they are, the high waist, and quality overall.Only one "but" they run a full size bigger, from my experience. I normally wear size 24 in jeans, even in other Joe's jeans 24 fits me better. However, Charlie model I have to wear size 23. I still love them more than any of my other jeans.Flattering cut. Love the buttoned front and the color is beautiful!I have the Charlie in a variety of colors and styles, because of the flattering fit. I usually wear a 28, but since I gained a little weight, I got them in a 29 and it was the right decision. These jeans look and feel like they were custom fitted to my curves, and I couldn't be more satisfied; I also got them for a ridiculously reasonable price, which is even better!Liked everything about them.These fit exactly as all the other Charlie high rise pants I have (I also have full length in white denim and a regular pair of jeans). Slimming and comfortable and a little stretch to them. Definitely am happy I ordered these.The Charlie high rise ankle jean is the most amazing, comfortable, flattering style of jean I have ever owned, and this price is absolutely unbeatable! I own these in two colors and would buy them in ten more if I could afford it! This pair was slightly more snug than my black pair in the same size, but overall still true to size. They will definitely loosen a bit, but they do NOT sag like so many other jeans I’ve purchased in the past. Perfect jeans!Highly recommed Joes jeans. Soft and the most comfy jeans I have ever worn. Pricey but ery very high quality
