I absolutely love Paige jeans. My favorite pair of jeans are Paige jeans from Nordy. I took a chance on these since they were on sale and loved them at first. That is… I loved them until I saw myself in a three-way mirror and realized I looked like a stuffed sausage from the back. I do have a big butt and thick thighs, so this likely won’t happen to the average person. It just didn’t look very good on me from the back… Or sides. From the front it looks great!I am 5’8”, 135-140 pounds, athletic build, big butt, small waist, pants size small/27– size 4 in normal retail and size 8 from specialty athletic stores.Hope that helps!
