I'm loving these, even if they are a wee bit tight. i'm 5'6" 130 lbs and they hit well above my ankle, as in the photo. ordered a 29 (i vacillate between a 28 and 29) and am finding a little muffin top spillage even after wearing a couple of times. the good news? these babies stay pretty well exactly as they come - as opposed to stretching out a ton. the denim is durable and stretchy and i would totally recommend them.
