I wouldn’t feel right with that creasing either. We have a really good and inexpensive tailor here—Astrid recommended them. That’s where I’d be going with these, to ask if there was anything they could do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153811 Fri, 13 Nov 2020 16:43:24 +0000 nemosmom 2153811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Thank you everyone so much for weighing in!&nbsp; I checked the measurements in the size chart and I don't think a size down will work :(</div><div>There is enough stretch to prevent them from bunching MORE, but I want to LOVE them... meh.<br /> </div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153802 Fri, 13 Nov 2020 15:46:21 +0000 Jules 2153802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fit on Style Fan was really perfect, honestly I find that the exception these days. Stretch has improved fit in some ways but not in others IMHO...I miss properly lined pant pants, but that's another discussion :)</p> <p>My first reaction was honestly that they look great on you, I did not see a problem even as someone who is self conscious about that area and often prefers just to cover the whole thing! But on second glance, in the first photo it looks like there's actually excess fabric such that it's almost folding over? I would at least try a size down, you never know, they might be perfect. For reference, I think they're too tight on the model, so I'm not suggesting you aim for that look unless you like it. I just think it's possible a smaller size will work better for you without being super tight, or at the very least clarify for you whether these ones actually work or you're just unfortunately between sizes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153801 Fri, 13 Nov 2020 15:40:53 +0000 Carla 2153801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Put it out of your mind, and enjoy wearing the pants! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153799 Fri, 13 Nov 2020 14:58:03 +0000 Janet 2153799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see nothing wrong with the fit at all, but I have much wider hips than you do and can’t avoid this in any pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153765 Fri, 13 Nov 2020 06:06:37 +0000 Bijou 2153765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They do look fabulous on you and far less whiskering on you than the model. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153752 Fri, 13 Nov 2020 04:58:13 +0000 kellygirl 2153752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look terrific!

In my case, sizing down (which yes, I was super worried they’d be too tight), fixed the problem. The rise in the longer size was a smidge too long, and that’s what was causing the bunchiness. I did get lucky though, since my local store had the full range of sizes. If I’d ordered on-line, I probably would have given up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153730 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 23:57:54 +0000 Minaminu 2153730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coulnd't agree more! It's a nightmare to buy trousers! </p> <p>I wonder, could you try another pair of those trousers in the current size? Maybe it is a matter of stitching ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153729 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 23:54:18 +0000 nemosmom 2153729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Gigi and minaminu: I worry that a larger size will bunch more and a smaller size will be too tight in the thigh and possibly cause wrinkles in the rear/back of leg. Pants are a pain to fit </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153728 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 23:49:15 +0000 Minaminu 2153728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with Gigi, I don't think that that effect would change if you size up (the model in the picture has a similar llok). </p> <p>The trousers are a good shape I like how they elongate your legs but the question is if you are happy to live with the horizontal lines across the front pockets and zipper . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153727 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 23:46:22 +0000 Angie 2153727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Nemosmom</b>, I hereby crown you Queen Acrobat.&nbsp; </p> <p>You ROCK that high rise!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153722 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 23:12:29 +0000 Gigi 2153722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, I didn't know a Team Terrible Lighting existed. I am definitely a member! ;)</p> <p>I am with you,&nbsp;<b>nemosmom.&nbsp;</b>I have a very low tolerance for bunching of fabric in the crotch area. If the fit is perfect everywhere else, then I doubt that sizing up or down is going to help much. At least that has been my experience. So I do think that you will either have to accept the lines or else return them.</p> <p>I would wear them around the house a bit to see if the wrinkling gets worse as the fabric loosens up. If there is additional bunching after wearing them for a while, that might go over your threshold for what is acceptable.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153699 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 20:17:25 +0000 LaPed 2153699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great!

I feel that I cannot advise you accurately without a visual because whiskering is a tricky case by case thing. Could be the high-rise as <b>Phoebe</b> suggests, or the wrong thigh and hip fit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153672 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 18:13:26 +0000 Anonymous 2153672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe it's something about the high rise fit? I actually think the lines are kind of cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/everlane-cords---whiskering#post-2153668 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 17:52:25 +0000 nemosmom 2153668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div>So, after seeing how great the Everlane cords <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/review-and-outfit-lab-everlanes-cheeky-straight-corduroy-pant">looked on StyleFan</a>, I had to order a pair.&nbsp; They are incredibly soft and comfortable and don't seem to be AS much of a lint magnet as I feared.&nbsp; But, I DO have a question about fit:</div><div><br /> </div><div>On me, the pants have horizontal wrinkly lines across the front pockets and zipper (exactly like what is pictured on the model of the brown pair). I am not sure how much tolerance I have for these as it seems to draw attention to an area I am already self-conscious about...&nbsp; </p> <p>Will sizing up/down help? Or, is this a case where I need to either accept the lines or return them? My other cords do not have the lines, but they are either skinnies or wide legs, so the fit is different.&nbsp; The Everlanes fit great everywhere else, so I am hesitant to exchange them.</p> <p> </div></p>
