I have autism and I really don't like having pants that are above my waist line. My family members have tried to help me find low rise jeans at different stores in my town and in other towns, but they're always medium rise or high rise. When I look for jeans on Amazon they were also always medium or high rise. This is the first time I've found low rise jeans in 5 years. I will say that the waist size fit me (36) but it was several inches too long for me, but I know I can just hem the jeans easily to my size (5'2). As someone autistic that is sensitive to clothing texture and the way it stays on your body, I couldn't be more happy. These are low rise jeans!
