A high-waist slim straight-leg pant in waist 28–38, listed in gray and described in the catalog as a stretch, anti-see-through fabric. Brand-level buyer claims cover Ralph Lauren pants generally, not this SKU, so confirm the color and your waist size with the seller before ordering.

Pros
Cons
Fit notes
The listing runs waist 28–38, skipping 35 and 37, with S–3XL spec sizing. A long-term reviewer who normally wears a 34 tag reportedly needed a 32 in Ralph Lauren's straight fit, so sizing down is worth considering. Nothing confirms the measurements of this exact pair.
Buy if
You want a high-waist, narrow straight-leg casual pant and you fall inside waist 28–38. Brand-level reports that the straight fit runs large suit you if you are willing to size down or confirm measurements first.
Skip if
You need waist 35 or 37, which the size run does not include. You also want to skip this if you need buyer evidence tied to this specific listing rather than to Ralph Lauren pants as a category.
