The True Shape Jeans are generally well-received for their quality, comfort, and fit. Customers praise the classic straight-leg style, high-rise waist, and stretchy yet durable denim fabric that retains its shape well. The jeans are reported to be true to size, with the petite sizing working well for shorter customers. However, some customers note inconsistencies in sizing between different color options, and a few found the fabric to be a bit thin or stiff compared to previous versions. Overall, the jeans provide a flattering, comfortable fit for a wide range of body types.

Smaller and shallower front pockets
Fit: True to size
I love LLBean jeans, but this last pair I noticed the opening for the front pockets isn’t as wide or big, nor as deep as my other LLBean jeans I have. I carry my iPhone in my front

Fit: True to size
To get a slim fit in the legs and butt, I had to buy a size that is too tight in the waist to tuck in my shirt.

I like the jeans but wish you would make the front pockets deeper. Women have stuff they need to put in the pockets. Mens jeans have much more space.

Fit: A little large
Little full on the shape. A bit of a sloppy look rather than polished. Maybe going down a size would help.

Washing does not stop the black dye.

No matter how many times I was these jeans the black still comes off in the wash and on my white car seats.
