They look like a great pair of pants, but clearly not the right fit for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771768 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 16:53:11 +0000 Thistle 771768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know, as hard as it is for me to find pants in particular, I am realizing how lucky we are here in the US to have the choices we do.</p> <p>keep looking. You deserve much better fitting pants.</p> <p>And remember, it is the clothes fault. They don't deserve to be on you if they are not perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771717 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 15:18:54 +0000 Angie 771717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There lies your problem. They offer that style in petite in the US, and the rise length is shorter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771706 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 14:59:13 +0000 Kirti 771706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie: Nope, regular.

You are too fab for this!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771674 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 14:11:46 +0000 modgrl 771674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep looking! There's a pair of pants out there for you. Sadly, these aren't it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771664 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 13:47:13 +0000 Janet 771664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think sizing up is the solution -- you'll just get more fabric in the crotch area, and i dont think that will help. It just looks like the cut is not right for you -- a combination of the rise and hip cut that is not playing well with your body. Do you have a relatively short rise? I do, and I see this kind of bunching sometimes too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771659 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 13:37:00 +0000 Anonymous 771659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one more thought on the subject. In order to find the one pair of skinny pants that I own, I did try on no fewer than six pair. I completely disliked the first five for one reason or another, but the sixth pair was golden. I find that with Gap pants, I have to be willing to try on five or six pairs each time to find the one that fits. Time consuming, yes. Worth it, generally yes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771652 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 13:28:06 +0000 Kirti 771652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mary, thanks! I will :)</p> <p>Jules: I have a pair of the Gap legging jeans that fit pretty well. I actually have a bit of a tummy and a high hip so no idea why the crotch would be so crease-y.</p> <p>Karie: I guess I will! Hopefully I will find a fab pair </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771640 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 13:09:28 +0000 Karie 771640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sizing up might help, but I would keep looking. Every store sells them (my JC Penney has an endless variety, as does Macy's) so you shouldn't have any trouble finding the perfect pair. Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771634 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 12:59:25 +0000 Jules 771634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually gave up trying on Gap pants entirely years ago because of a similar issue - the rise always seemed too long (I think??) sometimes with a similar effect. Before kids I had ample hips and thighs but a fairly flat tummy. Is that you? Do you have other Gap pants that work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771628 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 12:41:50 +0000 Anonymous 771628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have these pants and really like them a lot. I did not notice a problem with the crotch area, but I am 5' 10". </p> <p>Never settle. Keep looking. That motto has saved me from making a lot of mistakes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-really-skinny-pants---my-verdict#post-771623 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 12:17:49 +0000 Kirti 771623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think these pants are for me. :(</p> <p>The pros are that they are made of a stretchy, comfy material that isn't too thin/thick and that they fit well in my butt and thighs regiob (or so I think).</p> <p>The only con? The front view is terrible. The crotch is creasing and it gets worse throughout the day as the pants stretch a bit. They're also a wee bit long but that could obviously be altered!</p> <p>I'm returning these for sure. Would sizing up/down help the crotch issues? </p>
