Q: Are these petite size? For 5 foot women?
submitted by Ash - 7 months ago
A: They are regular but I believe are supposed to be cropped on average height. I am 5’1 and they are regular length for me - I love them!
submitted byjcros830 - 6 months ago
A: No, they are regular but they are supposed to be cropped. However, they are full length on me which I prefer and I’m 5’4”. Usually I have to get petite length in other stores. Hope this helps!
submitted bySandy26 - 7 months ago
A: I am 5’0” and found that the striped one is the perfect full length for me. It is not ankle length by any means since I am petite. The inseam is 28-29 for me and with a slight platform shoes or heels, it lays so nicely!
submitted byDidi - 7 months ago
A: No. They will be too long for a woman who is 5 foot.

Q: Do these sailor pants shrink when washing and drying?
submitted by Ro - 8 months ago
A: Yes. Typically, all denim fabric will shrink, especially when put in the dryer. Because these have some stretch, they shouldn’t shrink too much and will stretch out once they are worn.
You can always hang them up to dry them just a short time in the dryer to eliminate the wrinkles.
I hope that helps.

Q: I’m a 12/14 in jean’s depending on fit and brand. I’ve seen some say that they had to size up for this Jean. Should I get a 16 just in case or did the regular size work out for you?

Q: Is the red. A true red? It looks orange red in the picture.
submitted by Teacher - 7 months ago
A: They are definitely orange red.
submitted byNatalie M - 6 months ago
A: Hello Teacher - Great Question! Thank you for your interest in this amazing Jeans! The red appears to have warm undertones, leaning more toward an orange-red or tomato red rather than a classic, cool-toned true red. Hope this information helps! – Luke

Different than Last Year
I purchased the green sailor jeans last year and I had to size up and the fit was very stiff. I purchased these in the same size again and they run big, stretch out, and the length is longer. They’re very cute and versatile, but I would size down or stick with your regular size.

Perfect pant
These Fit true to size but most pants without front pockets make my stomach look bigger. These do not. The comfort is unreal. Perfect length and goes with so much. . I have them in dark blue and red as well as my "cart Hart " color. One of my go to pants .

What I've been looking for!
I love these. Comfy and trendy and hide my mom belly. I’m 5’2” so I had to hem the length a little bit. But they fit great around the waist and they’re very flattering.

Trendy sailor jeans!
I rarely wear red, but I decided to be a more modern, 74 year old athletic gal. I'm 5'5" and 126 lbs and went for the size 8 (on sale) after reading the reviews. Size 8 feels good and I would rather have some give in the waist than tight. It isn't a true red but not a "bad" red/orange, more red than orange. I haven't washed yet.
