Anyone tried these? Specifically, how do they compare to the Tummy Tuck jeans????

TIA

Yes, I've tried them. I really loved the ultra fit capris they had out this summer, but I can't say I love the jeans nearly as much. They help keep your tummy flat, but I found the rest of the fit to be unflattering because of puckering fabric in the bum/back of thighs (of course YMMV depending on your body type!). Maybe if they make a straight leg style it would be more flattering, but all I've been able to find is boot cut.

I have several pairs of dress trousers by Lee that have the same tummy panel in them and I love those as well. I'd say definitely try them on and see how they fit you! And FWIW, they seem to be running on the long side--I normally wear a medium length in Lee pants, but I had to go to a short in the Ultra Fit jeans and they were still a little long.

Thanks for the info -- yes, the length if important to me. I'm a long (34") inseam and the Tummy Tuck jeans I was looking at were 32's. That's why I was looking at the Lee jeans....

Thanks, I'll check them out.

Have you checked the Mark's Work Warehouse Curve Tech tummy control jeans? I tried them on and liked the effect. My only problem was that I am short waisted and really can't wear jeans that go higher than my hips or my proportions are off. They come in different lengths.
