I tried a few pieces but the fit was bad and I did not like the style of most of the rest of the pieces (i.e. no interest in wearing paisley and polka dots or orange colorblock when I work out).

The pocket placement makes them fit weirdly snug across the hips, and though they stretch out with wear, the tension across the front results in a saggy 'pancake butt'...I only wear them with tops long enough to cover the pancake! cagliari67https://www.blogger.com/profile/16618905266377358932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-6056105695057126442017-01-18T10:35:53.943-05:002017-01-18T10:35:53.943-05:00Quick note to anyone considering these pants:
Pe...Quick note to anyone considering these pants: <br /><br />Petite skinny stretch cargo pant with zippers<br /><br />item F9641 - I think only one color is currently Final Sale.<br /><br />In any case, i had to buy and exchange these a few times because i was having problems with the fit. I bought the Stretch Cargo pants from last year (ones with the flaps on the backside) and those fit me perfectly in P25 (I'm 4'11", 110#.) This latest version, sans butt flaps, with added leg zippers are really cute, but they seem to have more of a high waist and as a result the P25 was obnoxiously tight. Snug at the waist, crotch and even the calves -- I felt like the Incredible Hulk ready to bust outta that thing. (Honestly worried I was going to rip them when i was taking them off!) I went up to a P26, good fit initially, but overall baggy/big in the waist, stomach & back. Disappointing, as they fit like mom jeans & i couldn't wait to take them off when I got home. Recommend buying your regular size and 1 size up to see which fits best. <br /><br />@jan, if you're reading this, you were right, the Fiery Sunset flannel shirt is super cute! Love it, TTS. I really like how Boy Shirts fit.

I had ordered some bras and tops over the summer directly from NB and the quality was good but I didn't care for the fit. Their shoes are always too narrow for me so they've always been a no-go. I can see why J. Crew collaborated with them, though, because I think they've had a lot of success with their shoes on their web site over the years. They always seem to make the wrong move when it's a big move, though. Small collaborations sell via J. Crew, but they're a risk and J. Crew should keep the collaborations small to keep the risk small. And I'd be more inclined to at least try the NB line on if it were in J. Crew stores, but I'm not going out of my way to order workout gear by NB via J. Crew when I can try on workout gear at a dozen different stores and save myself the trouble of returning what doesn't fit. That's where they're really off the mark. If they want to sell something, it needs to be in stores. I assume it's in some stores, but not mine. catehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17121234545386465542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-11835465722673676042017-01-18T06:27:37.292-05:002017-01-18T06:27:37.292-05:00I like their classic line of sneakers.
