Good Pants but Needs Improvement
Over time, the Women's Essential Ashland Pant is very comfortable. Initially the fabric is very taunt, but does relax and stretch over time. The pockets placement is great for most items. However, I ordered Tall/Long and they do not act like long pants. This is partly due to the tapering of the pants below the knee. It acts like a legging more than regular work pants. Not ideal for any type of work shoe. Honestly, I like the pants themselves, but hate the fabric style below the knees. I'd much rather have a straight leg pair of pants in this style. Also, for those with hips and/or curves, order one size up for comfort.

Best pants and customer support!
Super grateful for Carhartt customer support. I bought a pair from a local retailer. They shrunk after first wash even following the directions on tag. Told me I could not return them so I contacted the Support team who is kind enough to help me out and sent me a new pair of pants! Super thankful! They're great!!

Best work pants
These are the best work pants that I've ever worn. Absolute FAVORITE! And I've been doing blue collar work for over 18 years. These pants actually fit women.

High waist, please
I wish these had a high waist. Who wants to bend down and reveal your butt crack? They are work pants, after all. I like the useful pockets.

Fit is perfect! Wish they were as thick as the carpenter pants.
