There's one review of the Jeanius Jeans on PR. Has anybody else tried it?

I'm wondering how much ease the Jeanius Jeans have. Are they a snug fit like normal jeans or do they have more ease like trousers?

Also, will they work with a heavy denim? I have some in my stash and would prefer to use it rather than buying more fabric. However, the pattern recommends medium denim so I'm not sure...

It's a custom-made designer original. I made it myself.

I made them and I love them. You can see the review Here on PR. Two things to note - I will probably go down one size next time I make them. They are trouser style jeans (i.e. they fit a little more loosely than true jeans style). The other is that I will add about an inch in length to them. They are long enough on me so that I can wear them with low (<2 inch) heels, but if I wear them with high heeled boots or shoes, I want them a tad longer. I'm 5' 6" and a little, with a 32 inch inseam.

Did you think that overall there was too much ease? If these were trousers would you be happy, or were you looking for more of a jeans fit?
