My favorite jeans! This style and wash, in particular, are hard to come by, so I bought 3 pairs from L&L They really snatch you in. They are stretchy but also substantial, so you know they don’t loosen as the day goes on. If you own the “stiff” 100% cotton Pinch Waists, order these one size down from those. L&L sent me a handwritten thank you card after pair #3 and I thought that was exceptional.
