Kim_KS Posted March 28, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Thanks! It is always so hard to find tall jeans at a good price. How is the rise on these? I hate that their details on the jeans don't give this information! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booboojoy Posted March 28, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted March 28, 2014 they weren't the low rise on the hip..i love the white ones for summer and they don't actually look like jeans and not as heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magandab Posted March 28, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 28, 2014 When tall girls ask about the rise on jeans, they usually are not referring to how high they fit (hip, waist, need-to-shave) but the length of the seam from the crotch to the top, up the front. With lower rise pants, it's less of an issue, but still a useful measurement. There is a difference, I've found, between pants sized as "long" and pants sized as "tall". Longs usually refer to the length of the inseam. Talls are designed differently to not only be long enough in the leg, but also longer in the rise, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booboojoy Posted March 28, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted March 28, 2014 noted.sorry. I didn't know all that. I just thought they were an awesome pant and price. I'm 5 101/2 and the 6 ultra fit me perfectly and felt wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedHeadTexan Posted March 29, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I am one of those long torso tall ladies, so the rise measurement is everything to me. Thanks for the link and I am going to check it out. Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skywench Posted March 29, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I used to buy a lot of clothes at Penneys, but not so much nowadays. Used to love getting their catalogs. When I look on their website, whenever I see something in tall sizes that I'm interested in, they are never available. I'm 6ft tall and Penney's was always one of the best places to get tall sizes as they had tall and ultra talls. I wish more retailers would carry clothing for us vertically gifted ladies!

dulcimergirl Posted March 30, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I can never find jeans tall enough. I ordered these in white. Can't wait to see how they fit. I'm weird in jeans, I can wear a 10 by one maker, all the way to 16 in others, although 16's are a bit large, after a couple of washings they are fine. I hope the 16 fits. We shall see.

magandab Posted March 31, 2014 #11 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I would have loved to try the Penny's Jeans, but, of course, out of my size. Hmmppphh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartmarshall Posted April 1, 2014 #12 Share Posted April 1, 2014 OP, thank you for posting this! Those are really cute jeans and I'm going to check them out. It's so hard to find pants that are the correct length for us tall girls. On the flip side, in Septemberish I purchased a pair of black "ankle" pants online from Target that looked really cute. When they came in, I really liked my new black capris :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dulcimergirl Posted April 10, 2014 #16 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Yes! I got the white ones, the last pair in my size. They fit well, and come to just about my belly button. Not quite as high as I'd like, but they fit well, and unrolled they are perfect. Love the skinny leg. Wish they had more in more colors. I vote thumbs up!
