Product Insights
The Pleated-Waist Thick Crepe Wide-Leg Pant delivers a tailored, structured look with four sewn pleats that double hip/thigh volume and expand when seated, trading a stretch waistband for a dressier silhouette that still flexes via spandex. Its mid rise and 29-inch inseam create an ankle crop that flatters shorter torsos and eliminates hemming for petites, while the heavy crepe blend of recycled polyester, viscose, and spandex provides wrinkle resistance, controlled fluidity, and breathability. At $79 CAD, it undercuts competitors like Petal and Pup, offering an exclusive sustainable construction with trompe-l'oeil pockets and eco benefits from recycled materials.
Verified claims
- Pleat engineering
- Four sewn pleats create nearly double the hip/thigh volume and expand when seated for comfort.
- Waistband tradeoff
- Fully sewn pleat waistband trades stretch for tailored look; spandex adds flex.
- Rise positioning
- Mid rise (11.5-inch) positions pleated waist below belly, flattering shorter torsos.
- Rise and inseam
- Mid rise and 29 inseam create an ankle crop that eliminates hemming for petites and suits shorter torsos.
- Waist and pleats
- Structured waist has no stretch, but the four pleats expand when seated to prevent pulling.
- Formality
- Structured wide leg with four pleats reads as more formal than elastic-waist high-rise competitors.
- Value
- At $79 CAD (~$55 USD), it costs less than Petal and Pup's $79 USD Clark pant.
- Ankle-grazing length
- 29-inch ankle-grazing crop avoids pooling with flats or heels.
- Fit
- Petite shoppers can wear as full-length without hemming, saving $10–20.
- Inseam comparison
- 29-inch inseam is 1.5–2 inches shorter than A New Day and Petal and Pup.
- Structured waist
- Non-stretch waist trades fit flexibility for a structured dressier look.
- Comfort features
- Pleats expand for lap comfort and spandex provides hip stretch.
- Pocket detailing
- The trompe-l'oeil sewn piped back pockets mimic the look of functional welt pockets.
- Pleat structure
- Heavy crepe prevents the four sewn pleats from collapsing, maintaining a sculpted wide leg.
- Eco performance
- Recycled polyester matches virgin performance for wrinkle resistance and shape retention.
- Drape and shape
- Heavy crepe drapes with shape-holding weight and moves with controlled fluidity.
- Fabric performance
- Matte pebbled texture resists wrinkles and recovers quickly after packing.
- Seated comfort
- 6% spandex gives crosswise stretch so the pleated waistband feels comfortable when seated.
- Fabric fluidity
- Viscose and spandex give thick crepe controlled fluidity without cling or sag.
- Breathability
- More breathable than 100% recycled polyester pants due to 6% spandex.
- Wrinkle resistance
- Crepe weave and recycled polyester let wrinkles release with a shake.
- Care
- Machine washing cold and hang drying help maintain wrinkle resistance.
- Eco profile
- Recycled polyester cuts water 90%, energy 59%, CO2 30–60%, and diverts plastic bottles.
- Performance parity
- Recycled polyester matches virgin polyester in durability, color retention, and wrinkle resistance.
- Material
- 72% rPET/22% viscose/6% spandex breathes and stretches better than 100% rPET alternatives.

Nice, deep burgundy colour. Very
Nice, deep burgundy colour. Very on trend.
Had to return
Nice pants/ nice colour. However, ( and l ordered my usual size) l had to return them as they were too small.
Wow!
Il fait super bien. Avantage la silhouette. La longueur du pantalon est parfaite pour moi, compte tenu mon 5p3. J’ai pris la grandeur small, je pèse 127 lbs. Le seul bémol c’est que je trouve la taille très haute.
Photo non conforme au produit
Ce pantalon est pleine longueur alors qu'il apparaît court sur la photo. Et les jambes sont TRÈS TRÈS larges alors que le pantalon apparaît modérément large sur la photo.
Great style
Ordered 1 size up so would sit lower and this pant looks great. Very comfy and Wonder hang to the fabric.
Feel and fit perfect.
Feel and fit perfect.
Belle qualité
Très beau pantalon, belle qualité de tissu qui tombe bien et qui avantage la silhouette malgré les pinces et les jambes larges.
Nice colour
Love the burgundy red colour, flattering wide leg cut. A bit small around the waist.
