Thanks. The fit needs to be much looser - it's as clear as day from Marley's photo.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1334010 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 12:49:28 +0000 bj1111 1334010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Back to this thread! Shedev, you and Marley have inspired me to pull them out of the donate pile and try again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333982 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 12:04:16 +0000 viva 1333982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have any experience with these pants and have just been watching the YLF R13 parade with interest over the months. Personally, I do prefer how Marley's fit, with the extra ease. But that is a lot of pant, which you may or may not want. I'd love to see you in a size up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333979 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 11:50:33 +0000 missvee 1333979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are such interesting pants. I think they would be way easier to style if you sized up and tried them boyfriend style like Marley has shown, but that might not be the look you're after. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333921 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 05:49:23 +0000 Deborah 1333921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great visuals from Marley:)&nbsp; So they really kind of fit like a boyfriend jean?? but with the cool cross over?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shedev do you see that look working for you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333916 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 05:31:33 +0000 catgirl 1333916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sizinjg up may work.&nbsp; For some reason with my body type I sized down one size and people still thought it was too much look, so I think body type plays a part too.&nbsp; I do think they need to drape more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333893 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 03:59:33 +0000 Marley 1333893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I own these jeans and love them and have not really had a difficult time styling them - and from what I know of your style, I don't think that you would either. &nbsp;I agree with those who are suggesting that you try a bigger size. &nbsp;I went up 2 sizes in mine in order to get the kind of baggy fit and fluid crotch area that I wanted. &nbsp;I also learned that they look much better with a belt and a semi-tuck in the front - so that the interesting cross-over part is visible.&nbsp;<br />I like the way that you have yours styled in the 2nd photo.<br />Attached are a couple of pics of mine - tried to find a front view and side view - side view isn't really a side view - but I think you can see in it how baggy the legs are.<br />@Deborah - I wear mine baggy and loose - I&nbsp;<i>think</i> that is the way they are supposed to fit - at least that's what works best&nbsp;&nbsp;for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333800 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 01:31:42 +0000 Gigi 1333800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these are really cool pants, but as others have pointed out, they are a difficult look to wear as far as figure flattery goes. When Una was trying them, &nbsp;I felt like the top of the pants needed to be visible so that the whole crossover feature could be clearly seen so that people see right away that it's intentional. Would you ever try tucking with a belt to show off the feature? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333791 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 01:19:49 +0000 Deborah 1333791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad Angie chimed in.&nbsp;&nbsp; Now I think I understand how they are meant to fit!&nbsp; Question... is the leg suppose to bit fitted or loose?&nbsp; I.e. should it read as a skinny leg or a straight leg? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333788 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 01:14:54 +0000 Suz 1333788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd love to see the size up for comparison. I like your styling option, and I think it's a good style for you to try. I like the crossover look myself a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333778 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 00:49:35 +0000 shedev 1333778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you one and all for your feedback. You all have good points, both positive and negative. I was after edginess and JFE is fine with me in this case. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333749 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 00:29:37 +0000 Angie 1333749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you like them, size up. They seem too structured on the thighs, which is making the crotch point bulge. They require a baggier fit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333740 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 00:21:06 +0000 Deborah 1333740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shedev, I was browsing these jeans last night:)&nbsp; I love them!!&nbsp; What I am unsure of tho, is how they are supposed to fit.&nbsp; Given the cross over, are they meant to be a more fluid fit??&nbsp; The fit does look good on you and I think the sizing is correct, I just find this style seems to flow best in a fluid drapey fabric.&nbsp; I do like the styling in #2 and I think with a flowing, draped topper they will work well.&nbsp; I would be inclined to wear either a high low topper, or even something with a sharkbite hem line that drapes at the sides but still features the cross over:)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333734 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 00:17:19 +0000 Caro in Oz 1333734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't love these on you;but if you love them then I think it is more about how YOU feel than about how I/we&nbsp;think they look.&nbsp;If you are talking figure flattery&nbsp;I prefer your HL pants by a mile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333715 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 23:54:33 +0000 claire 1333715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All right in the spirit of honest feedback here goes.... Are you after figure flattery or edginess? I remember how hard it's been for a lot of people to style these and get it right. If figure flattery is your goal, that's a tough one, are you ok with JFE? If that's ok or edginess is your goal then I like them on you and I like how you've styled them. But are they worth the struggle? Seems like they're a lot of work to style well, do you love them enough? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333671 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 23:08:21 +0000 shedev 1333671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One thing we all can agree on, these pants are highly controversial. Keep the comments coming. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333600 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 21:11:24 +0000 catgirl 1333600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know how I struggled with these - they are superhard to get right and I wanted to wear them so badly.&nbsp; I ended up selling them to bj1111, who apparently has not had better luck.&nbsp; </p> <p>So bear that in mind when I say I'm not a thumbs up - I think Marley and CocoLion and Anna's pictures convinced me of how they are supposed to look.&nbsp; But that is no reflection on you - I'm not sure there could be a more difficult cut to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333564 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 20:23:28 +0000 ironkurtin 1333564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you can do better.&nbsp; I know the allure of R13s - that buttery soft denim, the cool details.&nbsp; But they make other cuts!&nbsp; Depending on what size you are, I often find them on Yoox for way less than those crossover pairs.</p> <p>However, you can remember I have not liked these pants on any YLF member to wear them... I may be biased.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333562 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 20:22:10 +0000 CocoLion 1333562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the R13s so you get a Yay vote from me! &nbsp;I think the way you've styled them in #2 suits your style very well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333559 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 20:18:35 +0000 bj1111 1333559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have those pants. So effing hard to wear for me! I just gave up after a year. Your experience may be different.</p> <p>They do fit you well and i love the new ease in the pants....renembering your previous pants thread. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333558 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 20:18:22 +0000 Marley 1333558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm on my phone so I can't see your<br /> pics very well! I'll respond when I get back to my laptop, ok? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-r13#post-1333544 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 20:04:19 +0000 shedev 1333544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking for feedback on the pants. The shirt is likely to be demoted to undershirt status. All feedback is welcome. picture 1 is just so you can see what the pants look like. Picture 2 is closer to how I'd style them. </p>
