Where to start first? Let’s start with comfort fit. I bought four or five pairs of these jeans last year and this year the jeans have a much better softer more comfortable stretch to them so much so that I could immediately feel the improvement. Now color, I bought three different variations of the color black and the denim granite black was the color I decided to keep. I have five cats so I don’t own black colored clothing items, until these! The denim is amazing and doesn’t create a lot of static electricity (I have wood floors though) to attract pet hair. I was wearing these on numerous occasions while cleaning, dusting, and vacuuming, which is a daily Olympic event with five cats coming in and our of the house. I really hope that the color doesn’t fade and I will be hang drying or low heat drying these to help prevent color fading. I absolutely love the granite black and I didn’t realize how much I needed this color for my wardrobe!
