        I was fearful...skinnies are either perfect or disatrous. I'm 5'11, 130 lbs and the 6 is great. I like the above-the-ankle length for summer and the green color is fantastic--very unique and original. I want to get full length boden skinnies now!

          Good fit in the waistband but gaping across the stomach and crotch. Bizarrely a good fit in the thigh but far too tight on the calves so the jeans would bunch and gather. Sadly they didn't work for me and are going back.

          These jeans have the potential to be really great, if the fit is right for you. The length was perfect for me (I'm 5'5") and I even liked the higher rise - it eliminates any muffin top or flashing when you bend over.

          However, I found the crotch to be oddly low. Even when I pulled these jeans up as high as they could go at the waist, the crotch still felt a good 1-2 inches too low. And, while the fit at the waist, thigh, and calf was nice and slim, the knees were oddly baggy.

          The fabric and construction of these jeans are very nice - the dark indigo is an attractive, classic dark denim rinse. I'd recommend trying them, but the fit doesn't seem to be universally flattering.

          I ordered two pairs of these jeans, one in eucalyptus and one in indigo. I tried on the Eucalyptus first and they fit great! maybe a little bit tighter than I'm used to in pants, but still comfy and flexible. I love where it hits on the waist and even though I have short legs it hits me at the ankle. However, I tried on the indigo next and I couldn't button them! it was weird. the leg part was just a half an inch too skinny, not allowing me to pull up the pants all of the way! So I'm sending the indigo back and keeping the other ones. I'm going to wear these with loose blouses and flats to work and maybe chambrays and converse on the weekends.

              I'm a busy mom, so comfort is key. However, I still like to look nice. I love these because they fit beautifully, the color is fun and stylish. Great to mix and match with other wonderful colors & textures!

              I keep coming back to try Boden pants, but find that many fit well everywhere except the waist. I am petite at 5'2'' and 100 pounds with a small waist and yet the waist in the petite size 2 of this pant is too small compared to the rest of the pant. It fits and looks fine, but just does not feel comfortable. The rise is also way too high. Going back I am afraid.

                Perfect white pants - after looking everywhere for them - I had to buy another pair in white, for the future when these are no longer clean-looking (the inevitable fate of white). I also ordered the pink, I like them so much. A little higher rise in the back so no gap while sitting issue there. Another reviewer said they are too high of a rise, but I do not find that. And I definitely do not like a matronly fit. The length is shorter than ankle length - I am 5'4" and they come above the ankle. The fabric is thick enough so that the bulges do not show, but still quite comfy. The pockets are made of a flesh-colored fabric, so they don't show through (a pet peeve of mine in white pants). The first time I wore them, I walked through a puddle and they got spotted. Happily, the stains came out in the wash. After washing, I did give them a quick going-over with the iron. They do run small - I am a size 0 in US sizes.

                  I ordered a US size 6 and 8 because I wasn't sure how they'd run. I'm 5'5 and weigh about 121 but have a slightly athletic build and have found Boden size 4 skinny jeans to be a little snug in the past. The porportions on these jeans were just way off. Huge in the waist and thighs and then tight from the knees on down. Also, the color (white) appeared really dingy, not the paper white I was expecting. My most unhappy Boden purchase to date.

                    I ordered one pair and they fit so well that I had to order them in another color. They retain their shape and also wash well.
