The Bottom Line

Great skinny jeans and a great value because they hold their color and shape so well.

Pros

• Loads of stretch. Very comfy.
• Waistline isn't too low. Fits my not-so-skinny body
• Keeps the shape after multiple washing.
• Kept the color after multiple washing.
• Mid-rise (not too low or high waisted.)

Cons

• Had to order a size larger than I wear in other Gap jeans.
• The butt gets a little saggy after a long day of wear. Not that unusual for skinny jeans.

• A bit pricey for moderate jeans at almost $70.

Guide Review - My Favorite Skinny Jeans - Gap's Always Skinny Jeans

I was hesitant to try skinny jeans since a) I'm over 40 and b) I'm not skinny. But last year I bought my first pair of Gap's Always Skinny jeans in a dark overdye wash and was impressed.

I bought the skinny jeans to wear tucked into tall boots for fall, and that's how they have mostly been worn.
