Mountain Khakis Women's Cottonwood Cords

These are my favorite new pants, and I've already been made fun of for wearing them for several days straight. They are incredibly comfortable, and are pretty cute (much better looking on you than in the picture). They aren't really fitted in the thigh, and are a wider leg with a nice drape. I'm usually an 8 or a 6 (and am actually a 10 in Patagonia), and I ordered the 6, regular length. The waist was slightly on the snug size when I first put the Cottonwood Cords on, and they quickly stretched a bit to be wonderfully comfortable. I'm about 5' 5", and they are ever so slightly long, but perfect with the right shoes. The berry color is great, and I'd say a bit darker than the picture. Now I want a pair in Slate Blue! I highly recommend these, and other Mountain Khaki pants.

Yes, this review is clearly not of the new design. Read my review above for details ...

I have a pair from 2008 that I love and I ordered another pair because I love the new green color but ended up sending them back because I hate the new fit. The waist is now super high, not the hip-hugger that it was before, and there was lots of room everywhere- the waist fit well, although much higher than I wanted it, then the butt, the front, and the legs were all really baggy. Because the legs were so baggy you couldn't really tell they were bootcut. Great new colors, lame new fit.
