Mid-Rise Stovepipe Jeans in Leman Wash: TENCEL™ Denim Edition -- Cut-offs

Mid-Rise Stovepipe Jeans in Leman Wash: TENCEL™ Denim Edition Size 28 ***New but HEMS CUT-OFF*** I just purchased these new from Madewell, washed them on delicate in cold water, and cut off the hems to make them the raw hem style. I like the way they turned out, and they are super comfortable and flattering, but after trying them on again I think the rise is too high on the waist for me. I should also mention that these run large. I’m usually a 29 in jeans and these are 28 and still very roomy and stretchy. Approximate Measurements: Waist 16 inches across when flat Rise 10 inches (says 9.5 on website but this is what I measured) Knee opening 8 inches across when flat Leg opening 7 inches when flat Inseam 26 inches (was 27 before I cut them) From the website: The cut: Complete with the holds-you-in sorcery of our Magic Pockets® in front, these stovepipe jeans have a 9 1/2" mid rise for a laid-back vibe (they're great for everyone, but an absolute must if you've got a shorter torso). The fabric: Premium Orta stretch denim woven with TENCEL™ lyocell so it's both soft to the touch and perfectly structured. Premium 44% cotton/42% TENCEL™ lyocell/13% polyester/1% elastane Orta denim. Do Well: For each pair made at the Fair Trade Certified™ factory, we contribute to a Community Development Fund managed by the workers. OFFERS ARE WELCOME!
