The ScoopNYC.com site seems to carry unique sale items in longer inseam lengths.  Is this site ok, or is the customer service poor overall?  I remember reading posts on fashionhag about the bad service.


Revolveclothing.com has great prices, a 30% discount, free shipping, and free returns.  I'm not sure if this is a site for the tall woman, being 5'11".   I have a longer torso, which sucks, compared to really long legs.  So I really don't need more than a 34" inseam, but do need stretch, and at least an 8" rise.  With this combination, it's hard to find the perfect pair of sale jeans.  Especially now that the "Joe's Jeans Jagger Trouser" is only available in a size 24.  In a larger size, they would've been good (a bit short at 33" inseam to wear with anything but flats).


Is Scoop NYC's merchandise worth paying the shipping fee?  Do they have restrictions on returns?  I couldn't find anything on their website about returns.


Thanks!

I have not had any problems with scoop but beware that all sale items are final sale.

casey, I think you're better off with revolve. Especially because sometimes stores will say jeans have a 34" inseam, but they really don't. 


If I were you, I would just order a couple of pairs through revolve and then return the ones you don't want. Their returns are free and their shipping is really fast. 


I'd try Salt Works (the Orchard style is the best...they're stretch, not too low and the inseam is at least 34), or True Religion (the inseams on these are insane...like 35") or even PD&C.  In my experience, 7 and COH inseams are closer to 32-33" if you're smaller than a size 27, no matter what the description says.


PS - they have tons of PD&C and James jeans on sale at Revolve. Plus, Salt Works are only $84 after the 30% off code.

james jeans also have a really long inseam, 34.5" on most pairs, and revolve also has a bunch of pairs on sale.

rock and republics have a super long 35" inseam and they'd only be around 80-100 with the revolve code too. HTH.

I have my eye on james and rock & republic.  Have had 3 pairs Joe's Jeans.  I bought two 1/2 price that did not have stretch, and had to sell them on ebay, since they were too tight.  Another pair was in stretch and a size up on Ebay for only 28, but they were a bit large.  So, they were sold, also.  Plus, they were kind of short.


Are the rock & republic jeans more fitted than Joe's?

All the rock and republic jeans I have tried on are really stretchy (97% cotton/3% spandex), so they're very accomodating. I would go one size smaller if you wanted a really fitted pair.

I second Rock and Republic. I ordered a size down than normal and they fit awesome. Stretched out perfectly. And the inseam is longer than all of my other jeans. I got the Skynard style.
