Troubleshooting
Trousers feel too long or too short.
These trousers have an approximate inside leg length of 69cm (27 inches). Compare this to your preferred inseam measurement. If it's significantly different, consider if a different style or custom alteration would be necessary, though they are designed specifically for a petite fit.
The fit feels off, either too tight or too loose.
The trousers are designed to be a 'regular fit' and 'true to size'. Double-check your measurements against the brand's sizing guide. If you are between sizes, consider if the stretch fabric allows for flexibility, or if a different size would provide a better fit.
Fabric appears to be creasing easily.
While ponte fabric is generally wrinkle-resistant, excessive creasing can occur if left folded or packed tightly for long periods. Try hanging the trousers immediately after washing and drying. If creased, use a low-heat iron on the reverse side.
Fabric shows signs of pilling or bobbling.
Pilling can sometimes occur with synthetic blends due to friction. To minimize this, wash inside out on a gentle cycle. For existing pills, a fabric shaver or lint roller can carefully remove them without damaging the material.
