This lightweight denim look pant feels comfortable to wear and look up to date with today's trends. The only thing I don't care for, and why I didn't give them 5 stars, is that the knees get baggy quickly.

Bought these last year and loved how comfy they are because the fabric is relatively soft for denim and very stretchy. Problem is, too stretch that they don't retain shape, and got baggy, especially in butt and knees after sitting, esp. cross-legged. I'd have to wash and dry these in dryer after 1-2 wearings which is a deal-breaker for me so I returned them. If they had been shape retention I would have kept. Also, too bad the cotton is not organic.

What do you think! I like!

10 years ago

Bought in several sizes. I am 5'2" so on the short side. These pants fit perfect with the look of the one roll up of the bottom hem (not a double roll, just a single roll up and it's a roll of material that's about maybe 3-4") - love the look!!!! They are low rise, and the fit is as expected. If you want a tight fit - go smaller, if you want a looser fit go larger, or just get your regular size. Maybe that isn't helpful, but I hope it is. The material is not stiff like classis jeans but it is not as soft and flexible as dress pants - they are probably what I would describe as a very very soft khaki pant. Beautiful colors, material and design. Try a few sizes and see what you think!!

Favorite Pants

9 years ago

I bought these prAna Kara jeans about 6-7 months ago and find the to be my favorite go-to pants for almost any occasion. They are lighter in weight, but have a thick enough material to handle colder days. They gave a slight give/stretch after wearing for a couple hours from the wash; haven't had any problem with long johns or leggings fitting underneath. The length runs on the longer end, so I tend to roll the bottom if it's too hot; otherwise, the added length is great for ensuring for covered ankles. I often think about buying them in a different color, if that was ever an option. Highly recommend!!

Comfortable and look great!

10 years ago

These jeans are my new favorite. They are stretchy, soft, incredibly comfortable, and look great. I have the black, which is really more of a very dark denim. I can't wait to buy them in more colors. The one major thing I don't like about them is that the front pockets are not very deep. You can fit chapstick, but that is about it. My keys, which are not that big, don't really fit in the pockets. I feel like adequate jean pockets are pretty essential for jeans that are marketed towards active women. I would give them five stars if they had real pockets!

Good jeans (not like the typical jeans)

12 years ago

These jeans look great, are comfortable as stretchy (moves with you), and are thinner/light-weight. They run long in length and come with a fold (I don't usually fold jeans but these look cute in skinny style so kept it). Slim-fitting and a lighter color of denim. The waist is also slightly stretchy and wonder if they sometimes start falling off my hips (I'm losing weight) and may need a belt. So comfortable, can sleep in them, lounge around. I like the material for casual wear.

Comfy jean!

12 years ago

I wear these all the time, casual wear mostly, but would be useful in outdoor activities. They're good for biking because you don't have to roll up your pant leg! The only issue is that they sag a bit, so I have to wear a belt with them. It seems that comes with the territory of skinny jeans.

Great fit/comfy

9 years ago

I usually wear somewhere between a 6 and an 8, but the 6 fit me perfectly. I would actually disagree with the reviews that say they fit small, because I don't have a slim build and I do have a butt (lol). Although it says they are low rise, it came up just below my bellybutton, so I would say they are more of a mid rise jean on me. (I'm 5'4"). These jeans are comfy enough for almost any occasion, and super stretchy!

Would buy 100

I bought these as transition pants, from climbing to the city and back, and they are AMAZING. Really comfortable fit, great look, perfect stretch, and they dry really fast.

Best jeans on the market!

9 years ago

I really can't describe how much I love these jeans. I have three pairs and wear them all the time. I think most girls can sympathize with the agonizing battle between function and style, but not with these bad boys. I find them to be stretchy enough for climbing, durable enough for hiking, and just freakin comfy in general. Despite all that, I can wear them out in the city and not feel underdressed at all. Love them! I do think they run slightly large, but I always like a little extra room when I buy jeans as to prevent the dreaded muffin top. I would probably go a size down from whatever size you wear normally... but then again it might just be the fit with my body type that causes me to think that way.
