ditto! I saw them and thought the same thing about the pleats. they also looked a little too wide for my taste.

Other then the pleats, what was your opinion?? Well made?? Well cut?? etc...

I though they were nice except for the pleats. I have never seen a woman's body flattered by pleated pants.

Yeah, I've never been much on pleats. But these looked a little different, I guess with the dark color and texture. Most tops I wear are longer so the pleats wouldn't be as noticable. I'm not one for tucking shirts in much. I don't mind the pleat down the leg, I have several Gap/Banana pants with the pleat down the leg that look fine.

I think the pleats down the leg are fine, it's the ones on top that make the pants unflattering IMO.
