The cotton fabric! Sometimes synthetics just feel way too hot! </p> <p>I should probably check out the longer always skinnies again. If they are very similar in fit, then they may just work for me too!</p> <p>EDIT: I just went through part of the thread you sent about the gap skinnies! Thanks so much! I'll be reading the treat of the thread in a moment. They look fab on you, btw!</p> <p>Also I'm likely getting the size I got (8). I tried on a 10 and they looked a bit loose. The 8's were comfy and fit me very well with no saggage (as seen in my photo). Did the pants stretch a lot while you wore them? Debating now whether I should try a 6. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skinnies-at-the-gap#post-1045272 Sat, 05 Oct 2013 02:19:29 +0000 Diana 1045272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought the Ultra Skinny last month as a replacement for my BR Martins, which I like the look of but hate the synthetic fabric. &nbsp;So I was happy to find the Gap pants were cotton! &nbsp;I think they are actually the same cut more or less&nbsp;as the always skinny but are a slightly more cropped length (I don't mind though as they are quite fitted at the ankle). &nbsp; </p> <p></p> <p>ETA: Here's the post where I tried them and some other styles. &nbsp;I got the smaller size Ultra Skinny.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-slim-black-pants-should-i-go-back-for-any-of-these#post-1029506">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....se#post-10</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skinnies-at-the-gap#post-1045258 Sat, 05 Oct 2013 01:53:15 +0000 MsLuna 1045258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah that's what I gathered. For some reason, skinnies of most brands don't fit me like a skinny. The ultra skinnies look more like skinnies to me. </p> <p>I wish I can integrate the purple pants in the wardrobe. I'm sure I could because it is within my colour palette, but knowing me, I'd still prefer to go neutral in the bottom. Who knows? I might find a way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skinnies-at-the-gap#post-1045252 Sat, 05 Oct 2013 01:46:01 +0000 Anonymous 1045252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not familiar with the Ultra Skinny style -- from what I see on the website they might be between the legging and always skinny styles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skinnies-at-the-gap#post-1045248 Sat, 05 Oct 2013 01:42:31 +0000 MsLuna 1045248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Would the Ultra Skinny be considered a leggings style? </p> <p>I tried the skinnies once and sadly I was between two sizes again (a 6 and an 8... The story of my life). I experienced a lot of bum sagging on the skinnies though I wonder: did the skinnies you get have 2 way stretch? Maybe that's the key for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skinnies-at-the-gap#post-1045245 Sat, 05 Oct 2013 01:38:04 +0000 Anonymous 1045245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just picked up a pair of the Always Skinny coated skimmers and love them. I have six pairs of Always Skinnies now since I love them so much.</p> <p>I am not as enamoured of the legging styles, they don't seem to fit me as well.</p> <p>The purple looks nice on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/skinnies-at-the-gap#post-1045242 Sat, 05 Oct 2013 01:35:23 +0000 MsLuna 1045242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried both these pairs about 3 weeks ago and loved the way they fit. I tried them on again to see if I love them. I think I'm sold on the basic black Ultra Skinny Pants (I love the 2-way stretch cotton), but I don't think I'd be wearing the khaki skimmers often (despite the beautiful colour).</p> <p>I tried many pairs of skinny dress pants: Banana Republic's Sloan, J. Crew's Minnie's, Reitman's comfort ponte, to name a few. It was a toss up between these Gap Ultra Skinnies and a black pair from an independent boutique. I think these pants are winning due to the price and fabric content (95% cotton. The other pair is all synthetic). </p> <p>I'm wondering if these will still be available next month when I actually have the budget for it.</p> <p>Thoughts? Do you see any fit issues?</p> <p>1 &amp; 2: Gap Ultra Skinnny<br /> 3 &amp; 4: Gap Khaki Minis Skimmers (and me pretending to have attitude lol!) </p>
