You should expect compliments when wearing these trendy women's Jennifer Lopez skinny ankle jeans. The zippers at the waist are pockets and the ankle zippers do work. They are Lightweight Stretch Denim construction with 4 pockets...These are size 12.... Waist measures approx. 30.5", Hips measures approx. 41.5", Length approx. from top of waistband to hem 36 1/2". Never Washed... I have many Jennifer Lopez pants I love them... They look great with short boots or sandals!!!
