Jeans, Size 8, Tall

Kyle

I have several pairs of nice jeans that I really don't think I'll be wearing again, and would be happy to pass them on to a new home. If anyone is interested, just let me know and I'll post some photos. If not, I'll just happily donate them locally.

you don't look like a size 8 to me... you look more like a 4 or 6- are they small 8's? I'd be interested to see pics...

My 8s are big, and I've been wearing them anyway, but I'm not really comfortable with that anymore. Do you want pics of just the jeans or would you prefer to see them on?

I'm tempted to say I'd want a pair of "goal" jeans, but that's probably a bad idea.

This is very nice of you, Kyle!

Wow, Kyle! Depending on the brand and stretch factor, I sometimes wear 8's tall. I have problems finding them long enough, usually need 34 inch inseam. My recent purchases are 10's but seem too big and baggy in the behind, I wish I had gone down a size. I'd love to see photo's too!

I'd be interested in some. I usually prefer long lengths so I can wear them with my tall heels.
And don't worry, Marianna, as soon as I lose a few more pounds I'll have lots of jeans (and other things) to swap out!

Ooh - I don't know how many there are to go around, but I'm definitely an 8 tall. I seem to need a long rise. Anything less than about 9" in front makes me tug and tug.

I wish I had something good to swap out! I have stuff in my closet that has to go, but needs to go to Good Will. I wouldn't try to foist them off on you savvy gals!

I'm interested too Kyle, patiently standing in line here;-)
Would it be possible to post details about the inseam too? I wear a 34 inseam with flats, but I have some Summer wedges with a bit of a heel, and I need a 35 or even 36 inseam for them.

You are looking fantastic by the way. And I love that shade of blue on you (in your profile picture).

OK, here are some pics. These are Banana Republic, boot cut, generous 33 inch inseam:

These are indie denim, custom made per my specs, boot cut, generous 34-inch inseam:

Both have some stretch, and a pretty high rises. I don't think you'd be tugging, Jenny.

I'm not worried about making it a swap -- if you can use the jeans I am happy!

I'm definitely interested, particularly in the second pair. I love the color of those! I wasn't the first to respond though, so I'll defer to Carole and Sarah if they think they will suit them.

I'll pass. I can make regular lengths work for me, so you tall ladies should get first dibs!

Jenny, you look too tiny for these jeans, but they are yours if you want them. And, Inge, the Banana Republics with the pockets on back are available if you are interested. E-mail me: kyle@bdnaerospace.com, and we'll make the final arrangements.

By the way, I got a new pair of BR skinnies that I just love. They have a really nice dark wash, the perfect amount of stretch, a 36-inch inseam and a nice comfy high rise. I couldn't ask for more.

Thank you for posting the pictures Kyle, and the offer is tempting, but I'm afraid the inseam is not going to work for me. I'm looking for jeans to wear with heels, so ideally a 35/36 inseam. I'm good as far as 34 inseams are concerned.

I hope you find a a good home for them!-)

I think Kyle and I decided that the jeans would be too big for me, so I'm out. Boo hoo hoo!

Kyle and I determined they will probably fit just fine, I'm so excited! Thank you so much, Kyle, for doing this for me!!! You are FABULOUS!
