Flat front, Faux pockets in the back. Spandex makes everything more comfortable and fit better. These are beautiful pants. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any questions you may have. That's what I'm here for. Or, make an offer, I am NOT OFFENDED BY ANY OFFER. I can give you the absolute best price without hurting my pocket and if we can't reach an agreement then C'est la vie. Thank you very much for looking in my closet. Happy Poshing and God Bless You.
