I think these pants are good stuff - the problem is I might have bought a size too small - even though the same size fitted with other pants bought here.
However, it looks great on my daughter!! LOL!
from durham,nc on 11/21/2008
looks very classic yet I didn't have to spend a lot of moey to look good
from Lincoln, NE on 11/18/2008
My only complaint is that the pants run long.
from chicago illinois on 11/16/2008
I have been ordering from chadwicks for years and have only once sent something back. I was very disappointed [...] These pants need to be advertised differently as they are not petite.thank you.
from Orlando, Florida on 11/15/2008
The description is inaccurate. The waist sits below, not above the natural waistline. The rise is short like a hip hugger, not long as stated. I could tell immediately by the length of the zipper. Consequently the length is too long. I ordered several pairs and each fit differently. Getting my package ready to return
from Minnesota on 11/13/2008
The pants were too short from the waist to the crotch area and it fit too tight around the hips. It also had too much material bunched around the front with the pleats. The results are not flattering around the hips and and stomach area. It makes my flat stomach look bloated all the time with the excess material.
from Minnesota on 11/13/2008
I orded a size larger and the legs were too long (they covered my feet WITH 3 inch heals) and the waist was still too tight. I knew the pants would be a little long since I purchased another brand a size larger to get more room in the hips, but those pants weren't quite as long in the legs for a petite size as these were. Also there was too much material in stomach area that gave you a "smile" effect and made you appear bloated. Also, the waist sat lower than advertised and even though I ordered a size larger in the Petite size, it was STILL too tight in the hips. I was very disappointed but at least I can have to have a seamstress use the extra material from the legs to let out the hips a little. I have had better experiences with the other brands of pants and maybe should just purchase those instead.
from new york, ny on 11/11/2008
this was one of the worse purchases i ever bought. i was so disappointed when i saw them i didn't even bother to try them on.
from Glendale, AZ on 11/11/2008
Even though I ordered them in petite, I will have to have them hemmed a cuff-length.
from Pennsylvania on 11/6/2008
I have bought many pairs of slacks from Chadwicks in petite size 10. You have a nice inseam length in most petites (29"). However, I had to return these due to the slacks did not fit me properly.
from NY, NY on 11/5/2008
I liked the styling of these slacks but needed some in fabric that could be worn fall into winter. These didn't fit the bill
I bought 3 pairs of these pants and they are not as presented. They are basically hip huggers with a 3 inch zipper. They are cut tighter across the hips so the pleats bulge out, and are too big around the waist, so the crotch sags. I did like the length because I wear heels with my slacks. Would not recommend, would not repurchase, all packaged ready to return to Chadwicks.
from Fresh Meadows, NY on 10/31/2008
Was difficult to close. Not true to size. Other pants in that size fit properly.
from CO on 10/30/2008
I think the front button and clasp are a little goofy. They cover up with a belt, but it just is more work. I also don't like the pockets only because my PDA falls out easily, but that might be a big deal for others.
from Burbank CA on 10/30/2008
GOOD: color (hunter green); finishing on the inside & fasteners; waist fits well. Great price.
NOT SO GOOD: slightly tight around hip/thigh; pockets too small; and length (inseam) too long for a petite size. Fabric has a slightly rough/stiff feel.
SUMMARY: Because of the price, I don't mind getting the hems altered to fit. If pants cost more I'd be more frustrated with this & would probably send them back. Would love to see similar item in a blend with more rayon or tencel, for softness.
from Dayton, Ohio on 10/29/2008
The button for the opening of the pants fell off the first time I tried them on and they were not as comfortable or as attractive as they appeared in the cataloge.
from Houston, TX on 10/28/2008
Didn't keep the pants. First ones that I've gotten from Chadwicks that just didn't fit. the waist was too big and the hips too small. I'm very hard to fit anyways and have had good luck in the past with their pleated pants, just not this time.
from Ohio on 10/22/2008
These pants were a big disappointment. They did not look or feel the way I expected them to. They are cut long in the legs yet feel too tight in the inseam. While I like the color and style, I doubt I will get much use out of them.
from Prineville, OR 97754 on 10/22/2008
Nice fit
from Bentonville, ar on 10/18/2008
I wear them to work
from Big Spring,TX. on 10/10/2008
The fabric was great,but way too short in the stride.
from Wheatland, WY on 10/9/2008
The J.G Hook's Pleated Pants were too long in the Petite size. I like the brown color very much. The pants are comfortable to wear.
from Goose Creek, SC on 10/9/2008
None
from Courtland, Va on 10/6/2008
I wanted a deeper green.
from Phila, PA on 10/5/2008
Fit is horrible. Sat too low, run small. Fit in hips & thighs extremely uncomfortable.
from virginia on 10/4/2008
The pants were advertised as "traditional fit - sits above natural waist. This was not true. They had the new style short zipper and sat below
my naval in the front. Not a bit comfortable.
from Bay Shore, NY on 10/3/2008
Pants sit lower on the waist than indicated and tend to be just a bit tight in the crotch.
from Walnut, CA on 10/2/2008
I like these trousers and have found them quite comfortable. They are dressy looking but lightweight so are good for summer and warmer winter days. I did have to shorten them even though they were petites -- I am 5'3". One of the buttons fell off right away but that was an easy fix. Outside of that, all was well.
from rochester, mn on 10/2/2008
I was very excited to see these pants come in a 16P so ordered in multiple colors. When I tried them on, the patterns were cut VERY different from the solids. All were WAY too long and more like a standard length and all were also very tight in the hips. The were almost the equivalent of a size 12P in other brands. I was very disappointed.
from Ringgold, GA on 10/1/2008
have never been disappointed with your product
from Wyoming on 9/30/2008
I like pants that fit right on the waist. These are lower on the hips.
from Fresno, CA on 9/30/2008
The slacks look nice, but I bought the larger size hoping they would be more comfortable. The waist is still too small, seems the same as my other slacks from Chadwick one size smaller, yet regular department store I can wear up to two sizes smaller in most slacks.
from Raleigh NC on 9/28/2008
I was very disappointed in these slacks. They were advertised as "traditional" fit to sit above the natural waist. When I tried them on they barely came to my natural waist let alone sat above it. When I measured the rise against a pair of pants that I already have with a higher rise and that fit above the natural waist there was quite a visible difference.
from BOSTON, MA on 9/26/2008
I LOVE THE FEEL OF THESE TROUSERS. VERY SOFT AND SMOOTH. THEY FIT LIKE A GLOVE. I NEEDED TO HAVE SOME DRESSIER SLACKS TO WEAR FOR HOLIDAYS ETC. AND THESE ARE PERFECT. THANKS CHADWICK'S!! I CAN FINALLY BUY DIFFERENT STYLE SLACKS ON LINE WITHOUT RETURNING THEM!! I HAVE TRIED MANY DIFFERENT STYLES FROM CHADWICK'S AND THEY ARE ALL CONSISTENT IN SIZE AND COMFORT.
from Rossville, Ga. on 9/25/2008
These pants fit perfect
from Kissimmee, FL on 9/24/2008
I prefer the traditional fit, above the waist. These were not traditional. Overall, they are very nice slacks if you like the modern fit. I found it to be misleading, though.
from Camarillo, CA. on 9/24/2008
Purchasing a petite size usually means the length is perfect for me. These pants were too long and the fit in the waist too small. I have purchased other pants from you and have never experienced this problem.
from Redwood City, CA on 9/24/2008
Easy wear and care
from Birmingham, AL on 9/23/2008
I love your products but I do wish there was a 'short' petite selection. I would definitely recommend these pants to someone a little taller than me. The style did not lend well to hemming.
from Albion, IN on 9/17/2008
Definately NOT true to size, order a size larger. Very narrow across hips, gives you that unwelcome 'smile'. Fabric more appropriate for a skirt, too thin and flimsy for slacks. Like the style and color.
from Orange, CA on 9/15/2008
Works great for a Friday or casual business attire. Low waist makes an overblouse or sweater best. Cut for slim hips and derriere.
from Duncansville PA on 9/10/2008
I like the color and the fit. I didn't need to hem or make any alterations. Appeared neat even at the end of a busy day!
from Upstate NY on 9/9/2008
Trousers were described as fitting above the waist, but the rise was too short didn't even reach my waist. I was especially disappointed because I dislike the current trendy fit that falls below the waist and I was hoping these trousers would avoid that. NOT!
from Media, PA on 9/4/2008
Wanted a pair of slacks that would be worn to work. These were too long for petite and waist too small. Need to check the sizing.
from ny on 8/18/2008
The pants are not true to size. 6p fits like a size 2p. And they are to long in length.
from in Colorado on 8/16/2008
These are great trousers in a quality material. They should be very versatile for me as a teacher.
from Pennsylvania on 8/15/2008
I thought these trousers would be great for work, as casual business attire. I feel most uncomfortable in pants that sit below the waist. The catalog stated that they sit above the waist, but they don't, they sit below the waist. I have them packaged and ready to return. [...]
from Shelby Township, MI on 8/15/2008
They are described as sitting above the natural waist. However they sit below the waist. The waistline would have fit if they sat higher, but because they were below the waist they were tight.
from US Military on 8/13/2008
I wear them to work and they makes my day pleasant and worry free.
from The World on 8/12/2008
They are very lightweight so I can wear them in spring and fall. In winter I will need warm fuzzy stockings or long johns, for outside.
from Denver, CO on 8/12/2008
The pants are very classic and have a very professional look.
from Kingman KS on 8/8/2008
Pants look nice and fit fairly well
from North Florida on 8/1/2008
The petite size fit perfectly for a person 5'2" who needs comfort room in the hips (relaxed fit). The length comes down to the top of my heel, which I love.
from Holden, MA on 7/24/2008
I have purchased this product in the past with complete satisfaction. However, it seems that another manufacturer is being used and the same trousers have a very different fit, which is uncomfortable and unacceptable. For a petite size, the inseam is inches too long and from waist to crotch is too short.
from Houston on 7/23/2008
Even though it sits below waist, it fits nice and is true to size. Makes a nice business casual pants pick. Needs an extra belt loop at the mid-back.
from Pennsylvania on 7/22/2008
Great for casual and work with nice blouse. I have found no ironing needed. Do not wrinkle when packed, great for travel. The white fit a little tighter since they are lined.
from Chicago, Illinois on 7/22/2008
I wear petite trousers and may or not have to cut hem, J.G. Hooks are extremely long, it's a shame I have to cut off so much fabric for these trousers to fit me.
from MI. on 7/18/2008
I bought the pants for my daughter for school. The pants fit very nicely on her and the pleats add a dressier flare
from Richmond, VA on 7/15/2008
Am returning above item today, because of back pockets which are too masculine and make hips look larger.
from Claymont, De. on 7/13/2008
I was very pleased with the pants. Nice fabric.
Didn't wrinkle easily. Very nice!
from Clifton, NJ on 7/9/2008
I returned both pairs of pants. I liked them both but was very disappointed in the sizing. They were way too small and I even ordered a larger size than I normally wear and they were STILL too small.
