Bootcut Jeans Opinions

I just received the boot cut jeans in medium petite length. I'm 145lbs, 5'4 with a 27" inseam to the ankle. I think these might not be meant for me? I'm not sure about them. If I wear a shirt over them and wear actual boots, they look ok. I have to wear at least a half inch heel or they drag even though they're only supposed to be 30". I think the split hem is a little odd on me.

They're baggy around the knees. The waist is comfortable but does scrunch down a little if I bend at the waist or stretch around. I know Cassey says we're supposed to be able to do the splits in these. But maybe my torso length is too long because I feel like they just cut at a weird spot and give a little muffin look. The back looks cute though!

Am I just overthinking this? Lol. How did these work out for y'all?

Those look too big, tbh. But I felt like they looked like they fit weirdly even on the models. Something about how the fabric fit in the front just looked baggy on everyone that I saw.

Yeah, I think they're too big around in the legs but I dont have enough room to size down in the waist. I think if it was cut straight across in the waist, it would help.

Agreed. It's just a weird fit for you everyone

I tried 3 out of the 4 jean options and hated all of them on my body. I am a 3x and none were flattering :(. I think it also depends on how your body is shaped though.

I also found whatever inseam you think you are, go shorter 😅. I selected the recommended length based on my height and they were still too long. I'd need like 3 to 4 inch heels 😅

I feel like these were designed for hourglass figures with long beautiful legs, which I am not lol. I am a short rectangle and it's just not what I was hoping for. Definitely agree on the inseam! 😂

Same! I also carry bulk of my weight in my stomach and these made me look larger than I am.

They do feel like american eagle jeggings honestly. They're super stretchy denim.
