I don't need spandex in the jeans. I need jeans that are cut for a short, 50+ year old woman, not a 17 year old stick girl, and I don't want "Mommy jeans."
My old jeans (no spandex) fit just fine. Slightly below the waist, no bagging in the back of the waist, the back pockets are where they belong too. Why do they discontinue the stuff we like?

Lainey, I'm keeping up with you on posts today. 
Can you tell it's been raining non-stop all day here! What other problems of the world can we solve besides figuring out how to supply jeans and shoes that fit to the masses? You'll have to do it without me. I'm getting cabin fever.

ok lainey, then take your measurements based on the list I gave you and go to various jean mfg sites. They usually will have their measurements available online. If they don't, just send them an email with your measurements and ask them which style and size they mfg that will fit you best and who carries it.

ps If we can dress a Princess in Norway in a formal gown using nothing but measurements, we can do you too.
Would you like to know what the Obama's give as Presidential baby presents?

Those are the exceptions to the rule. We don't sell any jeans at all.
I'm sorry for giving you a bad time but I'm probably the only guy on here who can appreciate your frustration.
I play with 10+ different sizes ranges.
It's all in the measurements and that is the secret to fit.
