Rugged Flex™ Relaxed Fit Double Front Straight Jean

Love my new pants!!

I bought these a few years back and fell in love with them. I was so excited to get my new pair after 3 years with my last ones, until I tried them on and realized the design changed significantly. No more hammer loop, useless side pockets, and much much baggier than before. Seemingly all women's gear from Carhartt has been changed in the last couple years to less flattering and less practical designs for working in. These are fine jeans if you haven't worn the previous designs, but will have to be returned since the sizing no longer fits me. As a gardener, these jeans served me well and I'll miss what Carhartt used to offer women before all the changes.

True to size, I usually wear a size 2 at 5'7" and 135lbs, slim hips but thick thighs. The size 2 fits snugly but in a good way, not too loose or tight anywhere. These are pretty stretchy but also thick, which is really nice for field work. I get compliments on them all the time. I've had these for a couple months now and they've held up well to medium duty use, I will buy more pairs if they don't change them. I'm seriously disappointed that Carhartt no longer offers the duck canvas or Crawford double front/knee pants for women anymore, they were the best for working in, stiff off the bat but broke in well, but I guess they had to cater to folks who want to wear Carhartt for fashion over function these days.

Sturdy and well made. They fit well (I'm 120 pounds, 5'5") - size 6 fits me perfectly. I work a lot in the yard; I find that these jeans stand up to a lot of hard use.

Excellent quality, however, not as thick as I thought it would be.
