Customer Reviews Wrangler Retro Mae Mid-Rise Bootcut Jeans

I love my pants but they make the waist band way too tight with no give so had to cut all the bands and add elastic. Hopefully, in the future, they can add more elastic stretch to the band around the waist

I don't think I've purchased a new pair of jeans in over 15 - 20 years. However, after losing over 100lbs, nothing in my closet fit anymore. I searched everywhere for 100% cotton jeans, but they do not exist for under $100 anywhere. The Wrangler Alaina is the closest thing to the jeans I loved in the 80s. The Alaina is 99% cotton and only 1% elastane (stretchy material), but it's not that thin, awful fake denim stuff...these jeans have the look and feel of real denim. I measured my waist and hips and bought the jeans. They fit....kinda....they were not tight or loose, but kept sliding down (it's the elastane), however, because of the stretchy material, you can actually go down a size. I am 5"6', 209lbs with 38in waist and 43in hips. I initially ordered a 34/32 (I like them a bit long, but not stupid long), but found this was not as snug in the butt as I wanted, so I bought 33/32.... PERFECTION! They do not slide down or get baggy/saggy in the butt after wearing, they are comfortable in the thigh and knee and look great with or without a belt. They are mid rise so they hit right at the bottom of the belly button. I still wish Wrangler would make 100% cotton jeans (ARE YOU LISTENING, WRANGLER?? BRING BACK 100% COTTON JEANS, PLS!).....these can also show a little VPL (IYKYK), so make sure you are wearing your seamless undies underneath, so you have a smooth backside (if that's important to you). I will buy these again but will keep my eye open for pure cotton jeans. Giving these 4 stars only because they are not all cotton material.

I bought the jeans hoping they would fit better than they did. I am not one having to pull up pants because they are riding down.

These jeans fit so well! They are comfy, durable, and my favorite jeans ever. I started wearing them 7 years ago, and nothing else has compared or been nearly as comfy.

I have an older pair of Retro Mae jeans that fit perfect. The waist/hip is appropriate. The newer ones I've tried so far have a smaller waist. More like the higher rise jean dimension. Kind of like the manufacturer forgot that these jeans ride at the WIDEST part of the hip area. Not higher where the waist gets smaller. So now the size 26 fit the hips perfect and I'm afraid the 27 will sag after wearing a while.

I bought a 28 inch waist. They were a little loose but couldn't go to smaller size. Love the color. Don't understand why they were cheaper

17yo athletic teen needed jeans. Short (5'2"), curvy athletic build. Normal pant size of 6 or 8, normally wears size Medium otherwise. It is hard to find jeans that fit well, and look good. Teen loves these, was very happy with them, so I'll order another one or two in length 30" but may try a slightly smaller waist in 30.

great for work riding horses

They fit pretty much perfect, but the rise is a bit lower than I'd prefer.

Haven't worn these yet but did try on and they fit as expected.

These are great quality but not much stretch at all even after going up a size

I love the pair of jeans I got but never received my second pair for the bogo sale. So I'm not happy with that

Quality is good. This specific one I got was made in Pakistan. Some previous ones made elsewhere did not fit at all I could not get them up over my hips but were all the same size. I always order 25x34. I am 5'6" and like my jeans fitted but not so tight I cant move in them and long enough to cover my boots even when riding. I have a small waist and full booty so its challenging to find a good fit all around. Usually it will be too tight or too loose in one of those areas. These are a little tight at the waist but fit nicely compared to others.

I wore them once and they tore on the left and right side

Was surprised that these jeans fit as well as they do. I was pleasantly surprised that although the rise was less than what I wanted, the fit at the waist was very good. The material seems very light for a denim jeans. I hope they will hold up to working with horses and dogs.

They look weird in the but area

Too much stretch. I best like the CASH 100% cotton boot cut jeans, but you do not offer them in my size and length

I am very happy with my pants. I have ordered two more pair. Great quality, fit and fast shipping. Thank you Wrangler.

The jeans fit perfect, but I ordered boot cut and these are flare more like bell bottom jeans..

Everyday jeans for everyday chores

I would size down in these jeans as they run large compared to other jean brands. I love the jeans, but the pockets are super low and make them look a little bit like they're falling off in the back even thought they fit right. Otherwise I love the fit and they are comfortable.

I'm 5'7", 145 lbs. I ordered 29 x 34. Good length, but should have ordered 28" waist instead. I'll keep them; will be good to bowl in .

The jean fit my wife perfectly. She adored it!

I love the fit and feel of these jeans. I will definitely order again.

Love these jeans!
