I tried a pair of premium jeans and I am sold. They are exquisitely soft and comfy. I plugged in my measurements into Truejeans and Red Engine jeans was one of the suggestions. The jeans fit well in the waist and the 8" rise is perfect and comes to still under my navel. They are baggy in the thighs and the fit in the butt is strange. I am embarrassed to post pics, but here they are:

Any ideas for others premium jeans that are likely to fit me? I am 5' 2" and an apple.
