These are certainly not my first pair of JB jeans, however they are officially my absolute favorite pair of JB's! I see now why they fly off the shelves and are frequently restocked because honestly, the fit in these is the most perfect of any I have ever had. (and they ALL fit great as the Judy Blue brand does!) The somewhat relaxed fit in the hip area and thighs is a bonus for me as that is where I carry any extra weight. Also, I can currently wear JB 7's (in skinnies) and 5's depending on the style, and the 5/27 fit is perfect. I weigh 125 and 5'0" for reference. I have about an inch around my waist, and roominess in the hips. The length and raw hem is spot on. Just love everything about these jeans!
