DS asked if we could go to Winner's tonight so he could practice his driving and get underwear (they carry the brand he likes) so off we go. I'm browsing around while he's picking out his stuff (heaven forbid we be seen TOGETHER in the men's UNDERWEAR department!!!) and here were these saturated red ankle pants. I was holding them up and looking at them when he came back over to my side of the store and said "you should try those on Mom". I reminded him that I was on SYC when he said "well I'm not. I haven't got your Mother's Day present yet so if you like these, I could buy them for you as my present". I couldn't say no to either trying on the pants or to his smile of hope so off I went to the change room. They have since come home with me for a game of keep/return. I did tell DS that if they didn't meet with YLF approval regarding fit, I would have to return them. He said that was fine and didn't want me looking "goofy" anyway (lol)!

They are Larry Levine ponte knit with a seam down the front, welt pockets on the back and a nice wide waistband. I think they fit pretty well - the size down was waaaayyyy too tight. These are very comfortable at the waist and I like the somewhat relaxed fit of them. Let me know what you think about the fit - I'm holding my tee up so you can see the waist (not holding up the pants in case you were wondering). If the fit meets with approval, what about the length - leave as is or shorten?

Thanks for your guidance!
