				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thanks, Angie. I’m still considering because of the ironing. I’m not sure how often I will reach for them if they have to be ironed first, tbh.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I have these and LOVE them, &#060;b&#062;Kelly&#060;/b&#062; :)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;It's a good brand. But you have to iron them after washing if you want to look polished.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;They are a top pick. I got the 0/24. And they are still roomy like how the model is wearing them:&#038;nbsp;
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;They look like they'd work well for you, and could see them with your leopard moto!&#060;br /&#062;
No help with sizing though. Juniors are cut much straighter, in theory, but sizes are all over the map now....
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Flashback! I had a pair of Dickies carpenter pants in Kelly green in the early 80s... loved them!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thanks, Fabbers. It says relaxed fit and the reviews say size down or order your normal size. I think I'll order the size that corresponds with my measurements and the next one up to be safe. Will report back!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I just bought my 17 year old son a pair of Dickies carpenter pants for work.&#038;nbsp; Purchased at a work wear store, not the Gap, but I assume they are the same thing.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;His thighs are disproportionally muscular and large for his waist size (hockey player/baseball catcher).&#038;nbsp; The Dickies carpenter pants are cut more generously through the hips and thighs and so they worked in his usual pant size.&#038;nbsp; He tried the other styles and found them too narrowly cut through the hip and thigh for his build.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Hope this helps.&#038;nbsp; Hope they work for you!&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Junior's sizing starts usually with 00 size - 23 in a waist size;&#038;nbsp;&#060;br /&#062;                1 size - &#038;nbsp;24 waist or 00 in women&#038;nbsp;&#060;br /&#062;                &#038;nbsp;3 size - 25 waist or 0&#060;br /&#062;                &#038;nbsp; 5 size - 26 waist or 2&#060;br /&#062;                7 size - 27 waist or 4 &#038;nbsp;and so on.&#060;br /&#062;It depends on the brand and style of jeans/pants and approximate at best. I like the idea of carpenter pants - looking forward to updates on your search.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I'm not familiar with this brand, but I see that there is a conversion given on the product page. Does this help?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Juniors' to women's:&#038;nbsp;0=24, 1=25, 3=26, 5=27, 7=28, 9=29, 11=30, 13=31, 15=32&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I have found that juniors' sizing seems to run a little narrower through the hips than misses', so I might start with the larger of your two sizes if you are curvier.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I tried the Gap version which I didn't care for. I would like to try these in brown. I don't own anything in junior's sizing. What's a good starting point for size? I'm usually a 4-6 in bottoms at Gap/BR. Thanks in advance.&#038;nbsp;
