Best most comfy skinnies on the market!
5.21.2013
"Love these jeans. I am 6'0 with a 29 inch waist and a FULL booty with real woman thighs. Getting into a pair of skinny's has been a challenge because I am far from a pixie type. I found that fabric made of 60% or more cotton makes all the difference for me. These jeans rock any bod and fit like a glove (size 31, regular inseam for me worked perfectly) They dont hang low in the rear actually they have a little more material to compensate. No CRACK KILLS here. Can you say LOVE? I have the ocean blue and couldn't be happier. Worth the price. Getting the white for summer. Material is thin for warmer climates and this helps make removal super easy too. Do yourself a favor and say Yes yes yes to these jeans!"

Officially my new favorite jeans.
5.21.2013
"These jeans are perfect. The fabric, the fit -- I want one in every color! I have the light blue (seaside blue?) and Abyss and I'm going to get two more pair. They fit true to size and the fabric is lightweight and hugs your legs perfectly. I want to throw away all my other jeans and buy these from now on."

flattering pants
5.10.2013
"I'm curvy, with a bit of a bubble butt and a small waist, so the waist is big and I have to wear a belt. But the pants are flattering and comfortable, not black but a charcoal gray, as other reviewers stated, and they have enough stretch to make them feel great on."

So Comfy & Stylish!
5.1.2013
"I got these in Seaside Blue & I really do love them! They are SO comfy & stylish at the same time. They are a little snug in the legs, but I expect that they will stretch out within a couple of hours. I think I'll buy all the colors!"

Sizing Inconsistent
4.29.2013
"I bought these in seaside blue about a month ago in 27 (5'9 130lbs) and they are by far my favourite pair of pants. I love them so much I bought abyss also in 27. The colour is beautiful but the fit is wayyy different. They are wider in the waist, higher rise and the legs were very tight. My butt looks bad and its hard to move my legs. I would give these a five for blue but can't overall since I'm mad about the black."

My favourite pair of jeans!
4.18.2013
"I had my heart/wallet set on these after I saw a blogger feature them in an outfit post. After reading literally all the reviews here I decided on getting a regular length size 27. Usually, because I think my butt's a bit big, I'd go for a 28. I'm 5'7" and 120 pounds and after reading a reviewer with similar stats to me went for the 27, I did too.
What they say about these jeans moulding to fit you in so true. When I first tried them on, they were a bit tight around the knees but literally 15mins later they had loosened to fit me perfectly. They really feel like a second skin. They're a super comfy, lightweight jean and I love the colour. I got the ocean blue but it definitely looks more like the seaside blue pictures (which is what I expected and exactly what I wanted).
Now I'm considering going back for other colours, they're just so lovely and a fair price too. This is the first time I've ever purchased a pair of jeans over the net so I'm really grateful for all of the reviews. None of the jeans I've bought in a store fit as well as these. Also, I might just add that they took about 10 business days to reach me in Aus :)

seaside blue jeans
4.16.2013
"These jeans are a really cute fit and wash. The length is a perfect look for sandals/wedges or boots. I'm 5'8 and about 115 and they fit me almost perfectly. I usually wear a 26 in fp pants and these are just a little tight in the knees. They definitely have the super skinny jean feel if that's what you want. I haven't worn them in much yet though so they will likely stretch into perfection!"

Lighter than pictured
4.15.2013
"I got the ocean blue and I am pretty disappointed because the color is a lot lighter than pictured. They look more like the seaside blue pictures. I almost sent them back but I didn't really have anything else to wear today so I decided to keep them. The fit is looser than some of my other free people jeans as well."

"the white pair i bought are great! but the black, not so much. i thought they would be faded black like in the picture, but they're grey! I'm taking back the "black" but ill keep the white! i would size up as well"
Response from Free People:By FreePeopleWeb4.2.2013
These do loosen up as you wear them and they literally end up feeling like they were custom made for you!! The "Abyss" is a dark grey -- we'll be sure to add this information to our product copy. xoxo

Seriously Awesome
3.21.2013
"These are without a doubt my favorite jeans! I am 6'1", 135lbs and I usually buy a 29 in FP bottoms because I like them a tad bit loose through the waist/hips. But I went with others' suggestion and bought these in a 28 and they fit exactly like skinny jeans should, gently hugging all the right parts without any muffin top or diaper butt effect. Super comfy fabric... gaaa... in love."

great fit!
3.17.2013
"These jeans truly are a wardrobe staple. They are a comfortable fabric and the fit is very flattering. I purchased the cloudy grey colour and the only thing I would warn is that it truly is grey, not a hint of blue as it appears in the picture. After reading other reviews I agonised over the sizing and ended up just springing for my TTS 27 and they fit great! I would suggest reading the sizing chart and measuring yourself before deciding on a size."

great jeans, off on the color scheme
3.14.2013
"These are definitely my new go-to jeans; I'm 5"10, 130, and got a size 27 in Abyss, wanting a black pair of jeans. The pair I got are a dark grey, and look nothing like the pair the model is wearing, which is a disappointment. I still like them, but when I order black pants, I expect them to actually be black."

INCREDIBLE!!!
2.21.2013
"These skinnies are amazing. I can't get over how well they fit. I am 5'1" and around 115lbs. I purchased a 25 in Cloudy Grey. They fit perfectly! I wish i could buy a pair in every color! The bottoms scrunch a bit, because I'm short, but I am willing to try these in a shorter inseam next time. Buy a pair!"

LOVE!!!
2.17.2013
"These are amazing! I ordered a size 26 Long in Seaside Blue; I'm usually a 26 and they fit perfectly-- were a little snug at first but quickly stretched to fit, and I got them in long because I like being able to either bunch them at the bottom or cuff them. I'm 5'7 so they were perfect for doing just that. The seaside blue color was more of a muddy wash than I expected, but the color is still great. Perfect for a casual outfit, and I've gotten compliments on how they slim my legs. Definitely worth the money, a great buy!"

Stark White
2.15.2013
"Just got these jeans in the mail. I already have them in another color and love the way they fit so when I saw they came out with "white" I had to order them! I've been looking for a good fit white jean for over a year now!! These jeans fit me perfectly. I ordered, size 27/Short. I'm 5ft half an inch tall and 110lbs. I really am so THRILLED they came out with these in white because it truly is hard to find a good pair of white jeans that fit you nicely, and are not seriously see thru! The only down fall is you can see the front pockets of the jeans, but I figure that's not a big deal as they are "white". Other than that you have full coverage and the jeans are thick, not thin like most white pants. Love them! Can't wait to wear them for summer and pair with a cute tank!"

Nice jeans, colour all wrong
2.10.2013
"I purchased these in a size 28, short (as I'm only 5'5") and they fit wonderfully. I guess the only downside for me was the colour. I ordered Cadet Grey and they are no where near as dark as pictured on the model. That's the exact colour I was looking for, so I was quite disappointed. Will most likely be returning these beauties."

really disappointed :O(
2.8.2013
"I ordered a pair in my usual size, I was really happy with the color when these arrived in the mail..when I tried them on they fit a little loose but I thought they would likely shrink when I washed them, but no such luck I have tried wearing them twice and after an hour they are literally falling off of me...so embarrassing. I wish I could return them. Plus, now I have to really think twice when ordering FP jeans since they are inconsistent in sizing."
