If the 25s feel a little tight - walk around in them for a while. They stretch out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799406 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 15:49:20 +0000 Tanya 1799406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the input, Angie. I will order the 25 as well and compare both when they arrive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799405 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 15:47:28 +0000 Angie 1799405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, you need the 25!&nbsp;</p> <p>Bonnie, love yours. They are these.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799404 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 15:42:21 +0000 Bonnie 1799404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My Rayners are in the Hope wash and they won't load for me either. I guess they must have sold out. They are not trouser jean style but look like regular high waist jeans with wide legs. Mine were on final sale so I took a big chance that they would fit and I was happy they did.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799402 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 15:39:59 +0000 Tanya 1799402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have just hopped on the Rayner bandwagon, too, could not resist them at this sale price. I did go with my usual size 26, since I gained half a pant size over the winter. Hopefully they will fit and I made the right choice vs. sizing down to 25. I guess I will see. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799399 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 15:22:32 +0000 Angie 1799399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Confident.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799387 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 14:44:41 +0000 Elizabeth P 1799387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, one more question.&nbsp; I just clued in that I can return these to the J. Crew store in Ottawa, as I'm going there for work this weekend.&nbsp; This will save me significant return shipping costs.&nbsp; The downside is that I won't have the smaller pair in my grubby hands before then, so won't be able to compare.</p> <p>How confident are we all that the smaller size will fit better????</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799381 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 14:18:22 +0000 Angie 1799381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It was a good decision to size down, E.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799375 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 13:55:20 +0000 Elizabeth P 1799375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the input everyone.&nbsp; I'm feeling better and better about reordering... although I want to wear them NOW!&nbsp; </p> <p>Well, I thought that yesterday...&nbsp; now I'm back to winter coats and boots, so I guess mother nature is helping my impatience. </p> <p>Angie, I got the same, the trouser version.&nbsp; Glad to know you sized down too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799373 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 13:52:14 +0000 Angie 1799373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I sized down to a 24, and they are <i>still</i> big. I popped them into the drier to shrink - which helped a bit. I also got them on super sale for $35. I bought the TROUSER jeans version - see below. I like them a lot despite the bagging out. Nice architectural drape.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799367 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 13:04:14 +0000 Suz 1799367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look super on you! I can't order down a size, it looks like (all gone, sob) but maybe I will get lucky in store.&nbsp;</p> <p>Staysfit, I've had some issues with the sizing at J. Crew lately, also. For me, with tops, it's been a bit of the reverse -- my normal size isn't working and I should size up! Very weird. I think sometimes it just comes down to the cut of the item. Some are too narrow in the shoulder for me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799345 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 09:22:41 +0000 Style Fan 1799345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great.&nbsp; A smaller size might fit better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799331 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 07:17:58 +0000 Anonymous 1799331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these on you, in this size, so maybe the others will be an even bigger wow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799308 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 04:06:24 +0000 Staysfit 1799308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, I'm struggling with JCrew sizing recently, it has become wonky for me. Things have become strangely large in the size I typically order, which is a 4, or a small, and I'm having to size down to a 2, or extra small, but doing this in tall sizes gets tricky, and mostly doesn't work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799300 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 03:41:15 +0000 Anonymous 1799300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm also glad that you ordered a size down. Those look too big, especially the back view. I don't have these but find that denim will soften with washing. You might try fabric softener in the rinse as well as dryer sheets and dryer balls or clean sneakers to beat on them in the dryer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799296 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 03:26:41 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1799296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you ordered the size down, Elizabeth. I also thought they looked a little roomy in the front view, photo 2. Otherwise they do look like a fantastic style for you. I love how you've shown them here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799274 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 02:14:48 +0000 Elizabeth P 1799274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Denise! </p> <p>Lisa, these are my normal size. And I've just ordered one size down. I'm really not sure what to suggest, as these are good in the waist for me, but they feel loose in the butt. And I'm a bit concerned about bagging, esp as the denim is quite thick. I think I'm going to really enjoy wearing them, so am swallowing the shipping to get it right. It's one of those situations where I think every time I put them on I'll wonder if I should have tried both sizes. </p> <p>Bonnie, your find looks different. Are they Rayners in a different wash? I can't get it to load. Anyway, glad you are enjoying them. Emily, I hope they work for you, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799244 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 00:14:36 +0000 Emily K 1799244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also ordered...have not yet received them. &nbsp;I am curious about everyone's wash and wear experiences. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799242 Tue, 18 Apr 2017 00:06:48 +0000 Bonnie 1799242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My JCrew Rayner wide leg jeans just came in the mail today. I ordered my regular size and they fit perfectly. I love the sale price, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799224 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 22:37:19 +0000 Anonymous 1799224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woah, are they ever on sale! &nbsp;I'm tempted. &nbsp;Did you order your usual jeans size? &nbsp;I'm out of it now with JCrew sizing and forget how their jeans fit. &nbsp;Stupid shipping charges too. But I quite like these! &nbsp;They look great on you, too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799177 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 20:39:59 +0000 CocoLion 1799177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A great style for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799175 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 20:35:53 +0000 Elizabeth P 1799175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's too bad, Jane.&nbsp; The quality of them is lovely, although I guess i'll see if I still feel that way once I experience the "bagging". :)</p> <p>thanks Jenni.&nbsp; Yeah, it's a hassle, but the truth is it happens very seldom (one learns to be VERY good at asking questions, reading reviews etc).&nbsp; And it helps keep me under a bit of control. Ha, sort of. </p> <p>Thanks Glory. I know what you mean... some pants it bothers me, others it doesn't.&nbsp; Guess we'll see!&nbsp; I figure if Angie is good with these, they are probably fine.&nbsp; That's the reason I'd like to know if this fabric softens... stiff fabric that bags can look really clumpy.&nbsp; Softer ones can be more drapy, and easier to tolerate.&nbsp; For me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799171 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 20:27:09 +0000 Glory 1799171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them on you but agree they look a bit big. And if they stretch - then who knows how you will feel about them. You may not reach for them quite as much. I just returned a pair of jeans that did this within 20 minutes of wearing. They stretched so much I could feel wind...hahaha. I have no clue why some pants do this. I love how you styled them with the striped toppers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799152 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 20:02:34 +0000 Jenni NZ 1799152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great on you Elizabeth. I agree from the back view they do look baggy which is not obvious in the other pics so sizing down may help. I am amazed at the hassle some of you ladies go through. I mostly shop in B and M stores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799122 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 18:15:51 +0000 Jane 1799122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahh! I ordered these, but the size I need is out of stock - so I am looking on with envy! I am glad that you managed to get the size you need.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799120 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 18:08:55 +0000 Elizabeth P 1799120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, ordered!&nbsp; They are on more of a sale now than they were, so the shipping hit won't be as painful as it might have been.&nbsp; Sometimes it's a pill one just has to swallow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799099 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 16:50:55 +0000 Angie 1799099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah. I'd try a size down.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799093 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 16:30:41 +0000 Elizabeth P 1799093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie!&nbsp; Should I be concerned about the bagging?&nbsp; It's not too late to send them back and reorder.&nbsp; I'd rather not, but I want them to be right.&nbsp; I'm going to add in a view of my butt :)</p> <p>And did they soften up with washing?&nbsp; Sounds like you've washed yours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/qs-about-the-j-crew-raynor-wide-leg-jeans#post-1799073 Mon, 17 Apr 2017 15:44:45 +0000 Angie 1799073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I AM WEARING THESE NOW.</p> <p><b>HAH.&nbsp;</b></p> <b><br /> </b> <p><b></b>They look GREAT.
