Pros: Fit
Cons: quality
I ordered a second pair of these in gray because I liked the fit. Unfortunately, the first time I wore them I was at work and I realized that the inner thigh seam was not sewn completely. I had to find a needle and sew them so as not to embarrass myself!

T3 Tummy = 3 x The Muffin Top
Date:November 30, 2012
Pros: Style
Cons: Fit, Comfort
I purchased these pants online, and couldn't wait to receive them. I ordered an 18P which is what I normally wear, and it usually includes a little wiggle room. I was expecting a little more of a snug fit but not to the point that you can't breathe. Not to mention the gigantic muffin top the flat panel and "elastic" waistband cause. I was very disappointed. I was hoping to wear these to a Chritmas party next week but I wouldn't be able to make it 5 minutes wearing them. I thought about going up a size but even then, I am not sure it would help much. I think I will be exchanging for something a little less concentrated on the tummy.

Not so good
Date:November 29, 2012
Pros: Style, Comfort
Cons: Fit, one pair has a bad smell
I bought one of each color, black and grey, same size. The grey one is too big, even though it says it is the same size as the black one. The black one fits perfectly, but stinks no matter how many times it is washed.

Want slimming this is a not so much
Date:August 6, 2012
Pros: rear view
Cons: Fit, Comfort, muffin top making
I bought these pants in my size and they run smaller than the other pants, though I prefer a looser fit. I did not think there was any slimming to the pant what so ever. Tighter at the tummy, yes but it only makes more of a muffin top. It does make my bottom look good so I almost rated it fair. If you carry more weight in your middle then I think you should pass, if you carry it more in your hips and bottom with just some extra control in the tummy this might be a better pant for you than for me.

Just average
Date:April 24, 2012
Pros: Comfort
The pants are comfortable enough, and the fabric is light so that'll be nice for summer (although I hope they don't wear out too quickly). The fit is okay - slightly tighter than I would expect from a 22 but not intolerable. The Tighter Tummy Technology is worthless - a wimpy nylon panel that has no effect whatsoever (I was already expecting this, based on a pair of jeans I've had for a while). Not a bad deal for the $50 I paid but definitely not worth $70.

fit not consistent
Date:March 23, 2012
Cons: panty lines visible, tigher than previous t3 trousers
I purchased a pair of T3 Tummy Technology black trousers back in November and have loved them so much I thought I would purchase a couple more pairs. Unfortunately, the supplier is completely different and the new pants (these) are too small compared to the older version and the material is thinner. I thought I was crazy and checked the size again on my older pair, and sure enough it was the same size I ordered of these. I wouldn't recommend these due to the thinner material (visible panty lines) and the fact that they are no longer a typical 20 but instead smaller than a typical Lane Bryant size 20. I tried both the charcoal and black. So disappointed! They are going back.

Cons: would like a little more slenderizing in the tummy
I really like these pants. I bought the grey color. They are comfortable. A perfect fit and very stylish. Perfect for work or a nice dinner.

Varying inseam
Date:January 11, 2012
Pros: Style, Comfort
Cons: inconsistent inseam, snug fit
I purchased 3 pairs and the fit, while a bit snug, is good. My complaint is of the three pairs I bought, only one seems to have a true tall inseam length of 35". The other two, while I have not measured, are at least 1/2" - 1" shorter.
The front pockets are difficult to get into, but it isn't a deterrent from the pants themselves.

Surprised
Date:December 8, 2011
Pros: Style
Cons: Fit
I've had these pants for a few months. I originally purchased the average length, which shrank about 1/2 inch once washed. So I exchanged for a tall & had them tailored. I like them well enough, they still look nice. There is a small amount of piling between the legs, but not bad. They are a bit looser than when I bought them, but I've been losing weight, so I wrote it off to that. Here's the unpleasant surprise, I went to the store yesterday to try the pants on in grey & they fit just as snug as the pair I own used to. So in 3 months my $70 pants have stretched out quite a bit. These pants are too expensive for that to be okay. I won't buy them again.

ok, but...
Date:December 5, 2011
Pros: Fit
Cons: poor quality of construction
The pants themselves fit fine, but I ordered 2 pairs of these pants and they BOTH had the hem come out of one of the legs. I am very disappointed in the quality of these pants.

Worse pair I ever purchased
Date:November 11, 2011
I bought these on 9-18-11 and had to take them to a tailor to have them hemmed up because the petite was too short and the average too long. After a few times of wearing them, they started "pilling" real bad in between the legs. I used a fabric shaver to remove them and they just keep coming back and now a month later they have a big hole in the inner thigh! These were $70 pants!!!

Date:November 3, 2011
Cons: quality
The first time I tried these pants on I loved the way they fit so much that I bought them in three different colors. Now I've had them for three weeks and I've noticed they have stretched and become really baggy. Also, the hem has completely come undone on one leg. Considering how expensive these pants were, I am very disappointed. Obviously my money is not going towards the quality if they can't even last more than three weeks!

Different fit between colors
Date:October 18, 2011
Pros: Comfort, material
Cons: Fit
I just received my order and tried on the Black pair first. They fit exactly as they should and I am pleased with them overall. However when I tried on the grey pair I could hardly even get them zipped. I had to check the tag to make sure I was sent the right size. Keeping the black but the grey are definitely going back!

Disappointed
Date:October 11, 2011
Cons: looses shape, stretches out easily, price
I bought a pair of these when they were on sale (and still too expensive in my opinion). The initial fit was pretty good, a bit higher waist than I prefer but not bad. The petite length was almost perfect @ 29 1/2" for me to wear with flats; I'm 5'5" tall & wear a 20P,(this was when I first tried them on.) After wearing them twice now, they are "behaving" just like the former Houston/Right Fit Red's....saggy baggy bottom & because of the stretching width-wise, they are bordering on being too short now (width takes up the length). I won't buy these again. I just can't pay that much for dress pants & have them stretch out as bad as cheaper brands.

Could be better
Date:October 9, 2011
Pros: Style
Cons: Fit
I ordered these pants online, because the stores are all phasing out carrying the tall sizes. Because of that, I did not have the benefit of trying them on beforehand, but these did not fit me well at all. I would definitely have to go up at least 1 size if not two from my regular size, mainly because the Tighter Tummy control is REALLY a snug fit - for reference I always wear the Red fit pants and jeans & usually have no problems. If you didn't have a muffin top before, you will after wearing these. The material is nice and while they fit fine through the legs, it was the waist that gave me issues.

Very slimming
Date:September 17, 2011
Pros: Style, Comfort
Cons: Fit
I did go one size up in these -- not sure why I am usually a size 16 and even tried on the regular pants in a 16 and they fit but I bought these in an 18. They are very slimming and the material is great. These are a great wardrobe staple for all my carreer sisters out there. Love them!
