I really love these jeans... I was skeptical to buy based on the reviews for specially the black color way. In the other reviews I see the black jeans ripping on multiple people. I did the try before you buy, so I figured I would give them a try since I'm desperate for a new pair of black jeans. I typically wear a size 10/30, 5'9, but I sized up to a 31 and they fit perfectly...I'm thickest in my stomach so I think that's why they fit me better than the other reviewers. & don't get me wrong the quality is cheap, they are much thinner than the true Levi's jeans, but for $50... I'll take them. I've worn them a couple times since purchasing & they really are good. I can see why people had problems with them ripping since the material is so thin, but since I sized up I haven't had any issues yet. I would buy again, but only for $50, not $98.
