I recently bought these BDG pants on sale at Urban Outfitters for $20, usual retail $49 (same product, different colors)

I really like these pants overall, the fit runs a tad small (I am usually a 24P) and the length, 25.5" is very appropriate for my height. I am wearing size 25 but an SA said they go down to 24! No waist gap, though I am relatively straight figured... and the rise stops 2" below my belly button. I would like the ankles to taper in a bit more, but I think that's the fit you get when you intend to wear ankle jeans as regular length pants.

My only complaint would be that the twill fabric (98% cotton 2% elastic) is very stretchy, so you start out with skin tight jeans but eventually get that baggy legs look by the end of the day. They are very comfortable though, I don't feel restricted at all. I also tried on the denim version, which doesn't seem to stretch out as much. Unfortunately, if you want colored pants, they are only offered in twill... the "jeans" versions are your typical denim blues and black. However, I am a student at a large university so I walk at least a mile a day to and from class. So maybe for others they wouldn't stretch as dramatically.

I wore the pants in these blog posts in case you need more views, but they're not intended to be "review" posts...

Saggy legs!

And a last picture to show the true color.. it's an electric blue. I didn't see them available on the site, but that's probably because it's on sale... and in-store stock is different.
This picture more accurately shows the fit at the beginning of the day.
