Great pants-poor quality control

These are my all time favourite pants. I have 2 or 3 pairs in every colour, all the same size. For reference I am 5 ft 4", approx 120lbs and I purchased in a size XXS as I find they tend to stretch out quite a bit after wearing for a while and they do fit big overall-just not in length-see rest of r...

Love the pants, sizing is infuriating

I love these pants. They wash and wear well. They don't shrink with washing and don't stretch out during the day with wear but the inconsistency in sizing was mind boggling!!! I tried on a pair of XS in the stores and they fit great. Decided not to buy that day and bought them online at the next sal...

Not like my khaki or black Paris

Washed once and looked like I spilled bleach all over them. We don't use bleach and I've had my khaki and black pair for about 2 yrs and still going strong. Very disappointing.

Love this pant!! Pink Sand is beautiful! Being 5'0, 110 lbs, XS Petite is my go to size for Athleta pants. Ordered XXS Petite based on reviews, still needed approximately 3 inches taken off in the length.

Way too big

I got these in a petite XS and it was ginormous. Style is cute but holy cow, you'll need to size down 2-3 sizes. The cut is ridiculously wide.

Too roomy in hips on a slightly hippy girl

I loved the color of the undyed linen however the width of the pants overall is too wide. I have shape. I am a curvy 5'8" I ordered the medium and they are too big overall. I washed in cold water to see if they would shrink. They did- in length only. Which made them too short for me. Back they go.

Love the quality! Please have in plus size!! 💙💙

I love the quality but why do the plus sizes sell so quickly and they are never back in stock? Please provide more plus sizes! I would love to buy more but all the cute colors are out of stock.

#sweepstakes I was never able to get the linen pants I wanted last year so decided to give these a try. Ordered XXS Petite (5'3" 105#). The pants were unbelievably long. I asm not a heels person and wasn't comfortable wearing pants that dragged on the ground. Returned.

Retreat Linen is my summer go-to

As a thick-thigh gal, I LOVE wide-leg, and Athleta's petite generally works for me, 4'11". In past years, these were sold in numbered sizes, and I have a few 10p and 12p. I ordered both Medium and Large petite, and definitely need the medium. They are 3" longer than the ones I currently own, which is sad. But maybe they'll shrink up a bit? Here's hoping! I wear these almost exclusively all summer, and they DO wear out. I've retired multiple pairs for wearing through in the chub-rub region. I wish they'd last longer, but you cannot beat the airiness if you're a hot chick (age 45 here). I also get O.N.'s bc they are cheap, but Athleta's are much better looking because the wide leg is still tailored, rather than pajama-pant-balloony.

Love these!

These are good quality pants. There's zippered pocket, very airy feeling. They are still slightly too long for me. Very slightly. I'm going to get them hemmed a touch. I don't like pants that are baggy in the butt or inseam, so I took a chance with the medium.

Don't bother, bought a year ago and they're fully worn through in the crotch.
