I plan to experiment with an old pair of mine in cold water and hang to dry. They are terrific versatile pants and I always wear for travel if I can. I have tried the Gap ones and the fit is not as good for me so you may find the same thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-something-like-jcrew-minnie#post-759386 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 04:19:15 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 759386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Side-zip sounds like the kind of thing Talbots carries - if you search their website for side zip or hollywood waist there are some useful results, like this pair in washable bi-stretch in a few different neutral colors, sorry about the enormous link - <a href="http://www.talbots.com/online/browse/product_details.jsp?id=prdi29234&#038;mode=search&#038;backurl=%2Fonline%2Fsearch%2FsearchResults.jsp%3Fquestion%3Dside%2Bzip%26trail%3DSRCH%253Aside%2Bzip%26pageNum%3D0%26addFacet%3D%26removeFacet%3D" rel="nofollow">http://www.talbots.com/online/.....veFacet%3D</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-something-like-jcrew-minnie#post-759381 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 03:58:36 +0000 Anne 759381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks DonnaF, but I was hoping to keep that side-zip feature from the Minnie.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-something-like-jcrew-minnie#post-759371 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 03:36:35 +0000 DonnaF 759371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about the Gap True Straights? Not good if you have animals that shed, but otherwise fine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-something-like-jcrew-minnie#post-759368 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 03:26:30 +0000 Anne 759368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the JCrew minnie pants in stretch twill, but they must be dry-cleaned. Normally that is not a show-stopper, but I need them for a long trip where I won't be able to dry clean. Does anybody know of another pant like that one, but that can be washed?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
