Alright, so I’d been hearing a bit about these Good American Good Waist Palazzo Jeans. You know how it is, you see something pop up, people talk, and you get curious. I’ve been looking for a pair of jeans that are, well, a bit different from my usual rotation, something with a bit more flair but still comfy. Palazzo style seemed like it could be the one.

Getting Started: The Order and Arrival
So, I went ahead and ordered a pair. The usual online process, click, click, add to cart, done. Then the waiting game started. Not too long, thankfully. The package turned up at my door a few days later. Standard stuff. I wasn’t expecting fireworks with the delivery, just the jeans.
I brought the package inside. Took a moment, you know, life happens. Then later, I finally got around to opening it. Pulled them out of the bag. First thing I noticed was the denim. It felt pretty substantial, not flimsy, which was a good sign. The color was what I expected from the pictures online, a nice classic blue.
The Moment of Truth: Trying Them On
Okay, here we go. The actual trying-on part. This is always where you find out if all that online browsing paid off. I slipped them on.
- The Waist: They call them “Good Waist” for a reason, I guess. It did fit pretty snugly around my waist, higher up, which I actually like. Held me in without feeling like a corset. So far, so good on that front.
- The Hips and Thighs: Through the hips and upper thighs, they were fitted but not super tight. Enough room to move, which is key. I can’t be doing with jeans that cut off your circulation.
- The Palazzo Flare: And then, the palazzo part. Wow. They really flare out. From the knee down, it’s a proper wide leg. I mean, seriously wide. I stood in front of the mirror for a bit, turning this way and that. It’s a look, that’s for sure. A definite statement.
Walking Around, Getting a Feel
I didn’t just stand there, though. I walked around the house a bit. Up and down the hallway, into the kitchen. I wanted to see how they moved, how they felt in action. They swished. A lot. The fabric felt good against my skin, and because they’re so wide from the knee down, there’s a lot of airiness, which is different from my usual skinny jeans, obviously.
Comfort-wise, I was pretty impressed. The high waist stayed put, didn’t dig in when I bent over to pick something up (the ultimate test, right?). The denim had a bit of stretch, which helped with the overall comfort. I could see myself wearing these for a decent amount of time without feeling restricted.

Final Thoughts and Impressions
So, the Good American Good Waist Palazzo Jeans. What’s the verdict after this little try-on session? They’re definitely well-made. The waist is great, lives up to the name. The palazzo flare is no joke; it’s a genuine wide leg. If you’re looking for that dramatic silhouette, these will deliver.
Are they for everyday wear for me? Hmm, maybe not every day. They make a statement, so it depends on the occasion and what I’m pairing them with. I’d probably wear them with a more fitted top to balance out the volume on the bottom. But for a day when I want to feel a bit more dressed up or just different, yeah, I can see myself reaching for them. They’re comfortable, the fit on the waist is excellent, and they certainly don’t look like every other pair of jeans out there. A successful experiment, I’d say. Glad I gave them a whirl.
