But thank you so much for the recommendation Von! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1049182 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 17:28:51 +0000 Von 1049182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Has anyone else noticed that BR seems pretty low on the selection of Jackson fit pants lately? I wonder if they're trying to phase them out on the hush?&nbsp; Sometimes I can fit the Martins, but it all just depends. </p> <p>Lauren, have you tried the Ann Taylor tropical wool pants in Signature fit?&nbsp; For some reason, the Signature fits better than their Curvy, and the Tropical Wool fits better than the cotton versions.&nbsp; The Tropical wool is a nice feel + falls nicely on the leg.&nbsp; I have noticed that their pants seem to have shifted a size - all of my old ones still fit, but in store, I'm now going up a full size in the same cut from a year ago - so beware of that if you decide to try them again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1049174 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 17:10:40 +0000 Lauren 1049174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hope it helped everyone! If anyone else has any other less-mainstream-branded recommendations, please let me know. I can't seem to fit into any of the BR, Ann Taylor, etc basic styles. Pearshaped problems! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1048310 Wed, 09 Oct 2013 17:33:41 +0000 Lauren 1048310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ladies!

Crew to save my life. &nbsp;Relieved to hear I'm not alone! &nbsp;I love how they look on the long, lean girls. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1046311 Sun, 06 Oct 2013 22:32:33 +0000 Lauren 1046311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Full review coming soon but upon first try on, i'm really not a fan. And I agree with above, i HATE j.Crew pants for curvies, so was hoping these would be an alternative </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1044496 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 03:16:53 +0000 MsLuna 1044496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been looking into sloans myself lately. I'm an Inverted Triangle with apple tendencies and personally, I find that they are just OK. I'm actually in between two pant sizes (6 and 8) so I'll still need to make minor alterations. Im likely not going to get them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1044493 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 03:10:23 +0000 Kyle 1044493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my go-to pant right now. I'm a tall rectangle and these are available in Long, so that's a plus. They might not work on curves, but perhaps are worth a try. The fabric is wonderfully substantial with a bit of stretch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1044465 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 02:31:27 +0000 rae 1044465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am curvy on bottom and have 2 pair, wanting a 3rd. Great for a low rise, esp. in petite. I hate hate hated the J. Crew minnies for curvy thighs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1044433 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 01:58:47 +0000 Anonymous 1044433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am 5'5, and curvy. I just bought the banana republic Martins and they are my favourite pant EVER. Not cheap, but beautiful!! I can't say enough about them</p> <p>Oddly, I wear the short, which needs hemming with flats</p> <p>I often try curvy fits if the label makes them, these are great I also tried their Jackson but they didn't have any of my size, I have never tried their other </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1044359 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 00:08:14 +0000 Mia 1044359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We ended up with my pear tendancy&nbsp;mom in the Martin yesterday. &nbsp;I am a pearish rectangle myself and I am a loyal J. Crew "Minnie" wearer which is a similar silhouette to this pant.&nbsp; I must give this one a&nbsp;&nbsp;try though and look forward to your report! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1044351 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 23:57:55 +0000 Lauren 1044351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooo I guess i will have to update everyone when they arrive!

I wear Martin's as well. I have a 10 inch difference between my waist and hips with let's say muscular thighs. I think the Sloans are better on a straighter figure. I've also had good luck with Eddie Bauer curvy fit, Ann Taylor curvy fit, Talbot's Heritage, and LOFT Julie fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1044270 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 21:13:25 +0000 Diana 1044270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They don't work for me, and I am a figure 8 pear shape (high, wide hip).&nbsp; I wear the Martin fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-tried-banana-republic-sloan-pant#post-1044265 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 21:05:12 +0000 Anonymous 1044265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm 5'7".
