Smart Signature Ponte Pants - Black

Good quality, wish there were more length options

These pants are amazing quality and they feel great on! The only thing I would change is the length. I am 5'7 and the "normal" length is a bit odd (stop at my ankle so they look good with dress shoes and flats but if I wanted to wear tennis shoes for walking, it would be weird) but the the long length is way too long. They are good enough to keep though and I really do like them!

Great for short legs and waistband sensory issues. Plus zip pockets!

These are the only bottoms I wear to the office during the not-extremely-hot parts of the year, and I'm not above throwing them on for weekend grocery shopping/errands as well. I keep my phone in one zip pocket and my keys in the other and feel like everything is safe and secure. I have sensory issues with waistbands and the all-around wide elastic waist on these bothers me less than any zippered waist I've tried (I do pick the larger of the two sizes I'm between because I prefer a looser fit in the waist and elsewhere, but they still fit and don't look sloppy). I want to add some color interest to my pants but always end up feeling uncomfortable in any color other than black. The Slate Pinstripe color is the perfect compromise: black (or close to it) with just a little something added. I even got the matching Bianca Blazer to make a suit, though I rarely have occasion to wear one. I'm just-below-average height but disproportionately short-legged, which means I need straight or wide-leg pants (skinny pants are very unflattering) with a 24-26 inch inseam (I often wear "cropped" pants as full- or ankle-length pants). These are just a smidge too long out of the bag, but if I tumble dry them on regular heat once, they shrink just enough in length (there's no shrinkage in width). The fabric comes out fine too, though after that first shrink-dry I hang or rack dry them to preserve that quality.

Great pants!

Love these pants- they feel and fit great! I have several ponte pants from US and they are my go-to for work.
