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...

5'1" or under? Petite length is still too long!

These pants in petite sizing have an inseam of 28 inches, which is way too long. I bought the Petite XXS RETREAT LINEN MID RISE WIDE LEG PANT in Calla Lily (white color) and I was swimming in them. I tried wearing these pants with heels but it defeats the purpose of buying relaxing linen pants in ...

Comments about Retreat Linen High Rise Wide Leg Pant

These pants a very comfy and aren't too thick or thin. They do get a bit more wrinkled than I expected after washing, even for linen pants. I purchased the tall and I found them to be a bit too long (5'9) but was worried the regular length would be too short so I will keep them and probably just hem them a bit.

Zippers!

I agree with all of the other reviewers who appreciate the fit and feel of these pants. However, the zipped front pockets are unique and a game changer, especially for travelers. I had to size down. They are also easy to wash and wear. Just a great pant.

Comfortably!!!

Usually it's a struggle to buy pants that I do not have to hem so I was thrilled when I tried these on and saw they needed no altering. The fabric is lovely, soft and flowing without being see-through . Perfect for an upcoming trip to a humid climate and I am very happy with these. Thanks Athleta for acknowledging that not all people are tall.

Almost as good as before

Due to some weight loss, I had to buy another pair this year in a smaller size. This year's version is not as soft and seems thinner. I'm sad to let go of my previous pair for that reason alone. The old version hung & draped better, IMO. They're also long for my 5'2" frame despite getting the petite. Will need to alter. Otherwise, fairly true to size, if not a bit big. Size down if between sizes.

I used the size chart and ordered an XL which is often my size. I'm 5'8" and 189 lbs. my hips are 44.5". I'll return and try both a large and a medium. I wear a medium in the high waist forever fleece wide leg sweat pants. Pants are also long, but that seems to be the style now.

I love linen; this is heavier material than I expected

I bought the pants and the jacket both in large even though I wear medium in Athleta products for airflow during my 4 weeks exploring Egypt,Jordan Tunisia, Malta. Linen is perfect for the hot dry climate of the region. Because I had bought this online I didn't realize that the fabric would be a heavier weight linen which was unexpected but doable. It's perfect for the long haul plane rides as well as the hops between countries.

Love these pants!

I wanted some comfy, cute pants that aren't leggings. These are a great color and fit, and I love the zippered pockets!
