Can anyone advise if the cafe capri pants in wool stretch a lot? I bought a pair of the bright dahlia on sale, size 4 which fits great but I'm afraid since there is no lining on these pants they may strech and appear baggy in the rear after a few hours of wear. I'm sure there are a lot of you who purchased these in the past. Please advise!

hi Karolina - i bought the wool cafe capri in bright dahlia too (i reviewed them here) - i haven't found them to stretch and have worn them to work (sitting at a desk for 8.0 hours). hope this helps!

i've never even thought of trying on the 00 (not even sure if they have it in my store!) but i think i'm going to try again, with the smaller size -- love that i'm the same size as you and get to use your reviews!!

it's a no go...my legs are...heftier than yours...can fit in the 00, but the pant legs cling to mine and emphasizes that the knee break in the pants is not where my knees are, if that even makes sense. I'll have to try the petites.

I have two pairs and they have NO give. They will not stretch, although I would like if they did a bit! :laugh:
