I've never had success before with Everlane pants but a couple readers (thanks Page and Henny!) convinced me to try these stretch ponte pants. And well...I like them but I'm pretty sure I'll like the cropped ones more (I purchased these before the cropped ones were released). Take a look below:
{wearing: Grana chunky merino rib knit sweater (review here), Grana oxford shirt (review coming soon), Mansur Gavriel Sun bag (review coming soon), M.Gemi Felize loafers (review here & yep that's my third pair--I love them that much, lol)
I really like Everlane's stretch ponte material. I have both their original dress version and their stretch ponte skirt. So I was expecting to like their pants. Which I do, except that the ponte material tends to cling or hug every bump and curve, so when these materials are made into pants you can see some VPL and general ab and thigh bulges (see pics below). I don't have the same problems with the dress and skirt, probably because those clothes don't hug the butt and legs. But this isn't as much of a problem if you wear longer shirts or sweaters, or treat these pants like leggings (which they basically are, just thicker than the normal leggings). And on the plus side these pants are super duper comfortable and stretchy (great travel pants). They're also quite warm, so they're perfect for the winter.
"Darn no thigh gap"
"Oh VPL, the shame" lol
I purchased these in a medium and they were a tad loose on me. The cropped version comes in sizes 00-12 so you can get an even better fit with those probably. The pants have an elastic waistband with a button and zip closure. Like I said I like these pants, but I'm looking forward to trying on the crop version (which I was able to get in black too--even better). If you're interested you can find these pants here (referral link--thanks for your support!) and you can find all my other Everlane reviews here.
