These jeans are amazing. I am back to my pre-baby weight, but jeans haven't been fitting the same as before and I felt gross in all of them until I put on these Spanx jeans. They are so flattering, comfortable, and I think at a really great price point. The dark blue color is nice, but I'd love to see them in a more of a denim wash. I ordered the gray ones also just to have another pair. I'm a size 10-12 or 31 in jeans and the Large fit perfectly.

I wear a size 6 and ordered these in both small and medium to compare. The small pair fit like tight leggings and were hard to get on, and after wrestling with the zipper I eventually had to lie down to get them zipped up. Once I was in they made me look pretty fantastic, but going through so much trouble to get them on and off would have made them virtually unwearable. The medium pair fit more like skinny jeans and I had no trouble either getting them on or zipping them up. They also look great and are neither clingy nor baggy in any areas, and the high waist keeps everything looking smooth and contained. In the end I went with the medium pair and couldn't be happier with them. They're comfortable to wear all day and don't stretch out like my regular jeans do.

I like them enough to keep them. They are tight. I should have ordered an XL, I wear size 12 pants, but I can wear them and if I lose a little they will be perfect!

These are great. I wore them on a day of flying and they were so comfortable and looked great from morning to night. The lines in the jeans are very flattering. I look forward to wearing them often with all sorts of tops and shoes.

I love these but like others I agree that the zipper needs some work. Having said that I put a tiny bit of vasoline on inside of the zipper run and then ran it up and down a few times. It did the trick. I was worried that it would show on the outside but the material on and around the zipper is so thick that it didn't.

Great pair of leggings and not sure why some reviewers do not like the zipper. I find it very easy! Will be ordering more. Order small, fit perfect.

Love these! These fit well, and look great. I have never felt confident wearing skinny jeans or leggings until now. I am definitely ordering the black as well.

Zipper is not great, it's hard to work and it pinches your skin if you're not careful. But...the leggings look great on!

I love these jeans! I am 5'3", 124 pounds and ordered a small. They fit perfectly. I have no issues with the zipper, and I love that it is hidden on the side which prevents that extra bulk at the fly. I wish more colors were available.

I tried on about 10 pairs of black skinnys from Zappos and finally found a keeper! The high waist fits me better because I have wide hips and a small waist. These aren't sausage tight although they are clingy along my legs. I wore them for 9 hours around the house to pre-stretch them before wearing them out but they've maintained their shape with very little stretching. I love the narrow leg opening because I can wear low ankle boots and not cuff them. I'm a 28 in most skinnys and the Medium was a perfect fit. I only wish these came in black, but the navy will do.

I am a size 8 which would be size 29 as I was told by a customer service rep. It runs very small and was not able to zip it up. I'm disappointed and in the process of returning them.

Over all, I like them. They are very high waisted, maybe a bit too high. They are comfortable and slimming. Wash and dry well.

I agree with the reviewer who said these are more like skinny jeans, and I prefer that too. I ordered the black ones and haven't worn them out yet. I purchases size medium, but probably could have worn small if I wanted them really tight. I don't see any problem with the zipper. I bought them to wear with boots, and I think they will work well. I just hope they don't stretch out like one of the reviewers indicated. We shall see!

I agree with the over reviews about the fit of the leggings, I am a size 8 but ordered a large anyway, they're too big for worse than that they stretched out within an hour of having them on and were horribly baggy, they're a comfortable material but the way they stretch out so much just doesn't work.

Loved the denim ones because they fit more like skinny pants than leggings, which I prefer. So far they are wonderful, but have only worn them twice. I bought the black pair and had to immediately return after wearing for 15 minutes. They stretched out so much they were not wearable. I couldn't understand why such a difference, but the black denim was of such inferior quality that the back pockets were literally hanging off the pants.

I bought these because I loved the WOW cords so much...but the denim isn't tight to your leg all the way down like they are, so you can't really wear them with boots. Also the zipper is extremely hard to pull over the seam at the waist. It is too bad because the cords are so awesome.

Very poor quality. They remind me of the faded black jeans from the early 90s. They are also super short. Spanx may need to stick to the things they do well like the power panties and tights.

I generally wear an 8 in jeans. I may size up to a 10 in skinny jeans if they run small. I got a medium in these and really love them. Unfortunately, as other reviewers have mentioned, the zipper is a deal breaker. It has to go over a very thick seam that runs across the widest part of your hips. That is a double whammy that just does not work. It is also unfortunate that that is where Spanx decided to hang the merchandise tag. Maybe that is a sign that they are not the right size even though they fit perfectly everywhere else. I am going to take a chance and return them for a large to see if they work. I love the color and love the high waist. I am not sure why there is a zipper at all, other than to give the illusion that you are not wearing pants with an elastic waistband.

WARNING: Do NOT buy these leggings! I didn't listen to the reviews about the zipper. I just figured that I would be super careful... Great idea... Except the zipper was ALREADY broken when I took them out of the box! This just shows how bad the zipper is. Even if the pair you get is functional when you get it it's only a matter of time. I can't believe that at this price that Spanx can justify such shoddy quality.

I have all colors of the riding pants & they are great. They added a zipper to the denim which makes no sense at all. The size I normally wear fit in the legs but terrible in the waist and the next size was too big...forget the zipper.

Most comfortable leggings ever. However, the zipper is always hanging up. I have never seen such a finicky zipper. After 3 wearings I got tired of fighting it and sadly returned them. Thank Heavens for the great Zappos service!
