They usually have a glut of black pants, and some of them are side zip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/machine-washable-minnie-alternative-with-side-zip#post-1301460 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 19:52:53 +0000 Emily 1301460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Checking out the Land's End and Talbots options now - thank you!</p> <p>I actually have a pair of ON pixie pants (in olive green), but the fit for me isn't nearly as nice as the&nbsp;Minnies. &nbsp;&nbsp;ON&nbsp;Pixies on me&nbsp;work well as casual pants with a bit of slouch, but I am looking for something more sleek and polished. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/machine-washable-minnie-alternative-with-side-zip#post-1301436 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 18:52:28 +0000 Beck 1301436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love my ON Pixies -- have a red sale&nbsp;pair headed my way right now to join their black and blue friends in my wardrobe. However, my black ones shrank like whoa and are pretty borderline in fit now. I think I might've accidentally thrown them through the dryer, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/machine-washable-minnie-alternative-with-side-zip#post-1301421 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 18:31:42 +0000 ATLynn 1301421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like elpgal said, the ON pixies are a good substitute, but they don't have a side zip. &nbsp;Mine showed some wear with wash, so they might not be a good long term option. &nbsp;But at a fraction of the price of the Minnies and no dry cleaning costs, I still think they're a decent option.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/machine-washable-minnie-alternative-with-side-zip#post-1301380 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 17:32:33 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1301380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to recommend something from either Talbots - the one Deb linked to looks great - or Lands' End. If you search for side zip pants on landsend.com there are several results including this one: <a href="http://www.landsend.com/products/womens-fit-2-portico-side-zip-ankle-pants/id_257428" rel="nofollow">http://www.landsend.com/produc...../id_257428</a></p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/machine-washable-minnie-alternative-with-side-zip#post-1301294 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 15:35:49 +0000 deb 1301294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have these and they wash beautifully.</p> <p><a href="http://www.talbots.com/online/browse/product_details.jsp?id=prdi31101&amp;rootCategory=cat70008&amp;catId=cat80010&amp;sortKey=Default&amp;section=Regular&amp;conceptIdUnderSale=cat70008" rel="nofollow">http://www.talbots.com/online/.....8;catId=ca</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/machine-washable-minnie-alternative-with-side-zip#post-1301272 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 15:08:46 +0000 Mia 1301272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've looked but yet to find the cut/fit and quality at a decent price point to rival the Minnie.

They are machine washable and I believe they fit me in my regular size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/machine-washable-minnie-alternative-with-side-zip#post-1301180 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 12:54:43 +0000 NDMom 1301180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes!
