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...

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.

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.

I have these in two other colors and the shorts in the beige color that I purchased this time. This linen is well made and comfortable. It gets softer with age. The white color is somewhat see through and the beige is a bit as well. Wear neutral color undergarments and it is fine. The fit is true to size and close to the body but not tight. Would recommend!

Too Big!

I purchased my normal Small (5'6" 120lbs), they were way too big. I tried to exchange for a XS however the website only allows for returns so i returned it. Then tried to purchase XS however the sale was over and couldn't get original sale price so i will not be reordering.

I like this pants. They are made of good quality linen and I love the details however, I CAN'T wait for Athleta to make normal waist pants. I am done with high waisted linen pants. That is why I am giving 4 stars. They run big but all Athleta's pants run big except leggings.
