Great pants-poor quality control

These are my all time favourite pants. I have 2 or 3 pairs in every colour, all the same size. For reference I am 5 ft 4", approx 120lbs and I purchased in a size XXS as I find they tend to stretch out quite a bit after wearing for a while and they do fit big overall-just not in length-see rest of r...

AWFUL, What the heck Athleta?

I bought these last year and they are long gone to the Second Hand Store nearby. The waistline either sits up so high or the crotch seam is half way down to your knees. Bulky material across the stomach and the pockets on the backside were unflattering. I can't believe they are still for sale. ...

I do like these pants,bought these in natural.Im normally size 8,can wear small or medium in pants..The medium was huge ,the waist was fine but the hip area was huge and the rise was long…Salesperson said the small looked better on me..Tried them on at home ,sat down and the rise and waist were so tight that I had to return them. The rest of pant fit well…I ordered medium petite (Im 5'5")..It fit better in the rise. Not sure if Im keeping them.

I see you Athleta. You raised the price and substituted a lighter weight cheaper linen from last year's pants. The barrel pants are also made with the same cheaper fabric.

If I could pull them on...

The waistband does not stretch very far to allow pulling the pants on! When I unwrapped them from the bag, it appeared that they would fit, but I couldn't come close to pulling the waistband over my (slightly curvy) hips. I did size down from S to XS because they're flowy, however I don't think sizing back up to S would even help this situation. Back they go!

Polyester pockets—really Athleta?!? So disappointing. I will look elsewhere.

Great pair of pants that can be dressed up enough for a casual work day but also great for a weekend or travel. They do stretch out during the day (like linen tends to do) which changes the fit, but overall they are a good and versitle pair of pants. True to size, but run long.

Super comfy!

I am 5'7" and typically wear sizes 10-12 in pants. I ordered both a large and medium, and found the medium fit better. I love the pockets, and the bright blue color. Really excited to wear these on vacation!
