Looking forward to more reports.<br /> Out of curiosity I did their quiz (but did not sign up for the ‘results’ as I don’t plan to order anything, I was just curious what kind of questions they ask). I am surprised how confident they are using such limited questions. I’ve done a size<br /> recommendation quiz before and it asked not just what size you normally take, but in which brands, which I think probably gets at fit better. In that case they weren’t promising a great custom fit, just recommending a size in their brand, yet they asked more/better questions IMHO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2256101 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 20:15:56 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2256101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's amazing!

I'm really hoping for perfect jeans in the end ... and then they'll have my sizing available for future orders! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2256090 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 19:19:46 +0000 Becoming Alyssa 2256090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How disappointing Jenn, I'm so sorry for you, hopefully they can correct their error. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255985 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 07:48:37 +0000 Zaeobi 2255985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry it didn't work out, but hope the remade version does! </p> <p>Sadly agree custom isn't always perfect - the custom leather jacket I ordered off Etsy is too big on me everywhere, despite them sending photos of the final product before shipping to double-check all measurements </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255980 Tue, 22 Mar 2022 05:06:21 +0000 Anonymous 2255980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is so disappointing. &nbsp;I hope the next try is a dreamy fit. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255856 Mon, 21 Mar 2022 16:29:20 +0000 RobinF 2255856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How disappointing! It really sounds like they don't know how to make jeans fit which is very odd since that is what they do. Hopefully they make it right and you end up with jeans you like.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255674 Sun, 20 Mar 2022 03:44:21 +0000 Bijou 2255674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How disappointing - the picture looks like a great style which should not fit like a skinny jean. It is perplexing at how they could get it so wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255658 Sun, 20 Mar 2022 02:41:06 +0000 Jaime 2255658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm sounds like a good concept with a lot of execution issues. Am curious with you how they manage the situation from here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255647 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 22:48:15 +0000 Jenn 2255647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the commiseration, all! Sene has what they call "fit specialists" who help diagnose the fit issues based on photos and, I'm guessing measurements, so it will be interesting to see how that process works. &nbsp;<b>kkards,&nbsp;</b>I didn't quite trust the few questions that were asked, so I also provided waist and hip measurements with my initial order.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>doggeh lover,&nbsp;</b>I had good luck with the eShakti custom sizing and owned several dresses from them years ago. My style has shifted since then, though, and they've all been passed on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255625 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 18:50:24 +0000 Style Fan 2255625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How disappointing, Jenn.&nbsp; I agree with Angie that having things custom-made is like throwing a dice.&nbsp; I do hope the jeans get fixed for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255611 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 16:39:34 +0000 Angie 2255611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry, <b>Jenn</b>. That's very disappointing. Having items custom-made can be a crap shoot. Rotten luck :(</p> <p>Hopefully, as <b>RoseandJoan </b>suggested, the retailer will help out and get it right! And can learn from the process. Keep us posted.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255596 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 15:24:40 +0000 kkards 2255596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, I hope that the fit issue can be resolved because this is a great price for custom jeans. &nbsp;<div>I had not heard of this company, and was really intrigued, so I thought the fit quiz…and honestly I’m kind of baffled by how few questions they do ask, and how Loosey-goosey the questions they do ask are. It’s really dependent &nbsp;on you the customers truely understanding what high rise vs mid rise vs low rise is. &nbsp; I sort of wonder what % of orders need to be remade. &nbsp; Other customizable company’s I’ve seen on line, for example amazons made for you, require that you include phots that show your body shape. Hope it works out for you.&nbsp;<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255590 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 14:55:22 +0000 unfrumped 2255590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Best of luck with remake!</p> <p>Jeans are so hard for me. Best approach has been to try on lots and lots in real stores because is such a low success rate online, but that still takes multiple stores, racks, sizes and is ever changing, so I get the heebie-jeebies and put it off. So I see why you’d try custom creation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255589 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 13:56:14 +0000 doggeh lover 2255589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack! I'm so sorry to see this......I bought a dress from eShakti.com where they also do custom clothes, but there you can change length, neckline, sleeves, etc. 1st time they sent a 2nd skin dress, it was so tight! I wrote/sent back item, they added a few inches everywhere, much improved. Dunno if they do pants, haven't been there lately, but otherwise quality was decent and shipped quickly. You might wanna check them out too. Fingers and paws crossed they fix it right for you, please let us know </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255586 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 13:19:39 +0000 cat2 2255586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So disappointing! When Levi’s had a made to order booth in New York, my husband and I were measured and had custom jeans made. Both pairs were unwearable. So I share your pain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255583 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 12:21:53 +0000 Staysfit 2255583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ugh! &nbsp;I hope they are able to alter them to fit! &nbsp;The concept sounds so nice! &nbsp;It’s obviously in their best interest to get them right. &nbsp;Their business will fail if this happens frequently! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255582 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 11:50:05 +0000 RoseandJoan 2255582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hopefully they are able to resolve or remake the jeans for you Jenn, small brands like this are reliant on good word of mouth and so I am optimistic still.</p> <p>Regarding how the fit made you feel, wouldn't it be nice for a moment if our bodies and minds could be friends? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255571 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 08:51:54 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2255571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, my goodness, how awful. I’m sorry, but I’m laughing, particularly at this sentence “they steadily slide downwards if I so much as dare to waddle”. Comedy gold, not a color you want to wear. Those jeans sound like the deformed monster to me. </p> <p>It sounds like they’ll have to totally remake them since the legs are tight. I think there are companies that say “super straight” when what they mean is very fitted legs/skinnies. But I guess you know that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255548 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 03:23:06 +0000 DonnaF 2255548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How disappointing. Keep reminding yourself that it’s the jeans and not you. But so weird that they fit worse than ready to wear. My fit issue is that I get a lot of horizontal folds below my seat in the back, probably because I have a pancake caboose. Sounds like Sene may not have the skill to address that issue.</p> <p>Best of luck in the second go-around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255543 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 02:40:26 +0000 Zaeobi 2255543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting sounding service - from what I've read, it seems they guess the fit based on your stats (height/ weight etc) rather than pure measurements, right? </p> <p>In your case, would maybe offering up some measurements help (like with the rise etc)? Good luck - I know how frustrating jeans shopping is lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255540 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 02:29:24 +0000 rachylou 2255540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sounds terrible! But if they get it right… maybe the next time would be easy… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255536 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 01:59:32 +0000 Jonesy 2255536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What rotten, rotten luck! I think I would cry if I opened up the package and discovered that mess--after feeling so hopeful that they would be custom and a perfect fit! My fingers are crossed that they can make this right, but what a bitter pill. It seems like their process could use a little tweaking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255529 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 01:43:43 +0000 LaPed 2255529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yikes! How disappointing. I'm curious to hear how the alterations process goes, and I hope you end up with a great pair of jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255519 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 00:21:06 +0000 Jenn 2255519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It seems like remakes are a part of their service that they pride themselves on, so I still have high hopes it'll work out. They're just SO far off from anything approaching a great fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255515 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 00:11:45 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2255515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that's too bad! I had high hopes<br /> for these. I hope they can remake them closer to what you want. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255513 Sat, 19 Mar 2022 00:06:42 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2255513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that sounds disappointing and frustrating. I hope you aren't stuck with the product if they can't get it to fit right! </p> <p>As a sewist, I can't imagine making a fitted garment for someone with just a collection of measurements. But I'm not a pro.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sene-studio-custom-jeans---initial-review#post-2255512 Fri, 18 Mar 2022 23:59:39 +0000 Jenn 2255512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A few weeks ago, I decided to try a pair of custom-sized jeans from Sene Studio. The premise with them is that you answer a few fit questions and send in your measurements, and they create a pair of jeans custom-sized for you, in the style/fabric you request.</p> <p>I ordered my jeans--the "slim straight" style, full-length, high-rise, in a dark wash--on March 2 and they arrived today, March 18, which I thought was GREAT for a custom item.</p> <p>Unfortunately, the fit is awful. Just terrible. In fact, it's way worse than just about any off-the-shelf denim I've ever tried. The supposed straight-legs cling to my thighs and calves like the skinniest of skinny jeans. &nbsp;The rise droops several inches below my crotch, refusing to pull up any further, while the front waistband dips well under my belly button. they steadily slide downwards if I so much as dare to waddle in them. It's so bad that I haven't included a photo here, even though I took several for customer service.</p> <p>Sene offers free alterations and up to two remakes if the fit isn't right, so I'm working through that process now. I haven't heard back from them yet, but I can't imagine that these fit issues will be solved by alteration, so I'm expecting to wait another three weeks for the remake.</p> <p>Soooo...the jury's still out on whether this was a worthy experiment, but so far, it's not at all the experience I was hoping for. Putting on jeans that fit so poorly made me feel like some sort of deformed monster. I'm so disappointed. Hopefully, they'll be able to work some magic to make it right.</p> </p>
