After much back and forth due to the USPS and my beloved daughter being a tad forgetful, I finally received my long awaited Pride Shop Pants. Well- worth every week I waited!

Thanks to the revamped fitting system and the very useful sizing tips, I chose a 14/32 (I know, right!) and they look great on me. I especially appreciate the generously sized coin pockets on both sides -a woman can never have too many generously smallish-sized pockets in her clothes.

The fabric finish feels wonderful and if it weren’t so stinking hot down here in New Zealand, I’d wear them all day long.

I had ordered the pride shops pants previously when they were being discontinued in a previous fit. I was totally disappointed when they came in at the wrong size. Dovetail so greatly let me keep the purchase to gift to another Sister in the Trades and provided me with a full refund. I was stoked when the pants were re-issued and didn’t realize they weren’t my usual cut and fit. When I got them after a sizeable delay in shipping they didn’t fit! So I immediately sent them back. Re-ordered for a smaller size and got them again after another long shipping delay. I wasn’t pleased with the feel or quality of the pants. Ive had 5 pairs of the Brit Utility pants having destroyed 3 I’m down to my last 2. Absolutely love these pants! Get compliments on them all the time. I was really disappointed at the material of these, it was very “spandex-y” lots of long threads hanging off the pants and an overall “cheaper” feel. I love Dovetail but for $160 a pair I didn’t love these so I returned for a refund.
