I like them because I'm short and on me they sit a little bit higher like normal jeans do on taller women.

I"m with you! I hate them as I am short waisted, so they just look foul on me, I mean really foul and yeah, they don't look good with a belly at all. ezibuy have loads of high rise capris, maybe google them and have a look?
I don't like them because I always seem to end up with a muffin top - no matter what size. I got some good mid rise 3/4 at Big W. I still always have to take the waist in cause I have a larger bum and thighs than waist.
I cant stand high waisted pants i feel like im suffocating so im all about the hipsters though skinny leg jeans seem to be much more flattering on me (well i like to think so)
I don't like them at all, they make me look short(er), but I also don't like high rise.....so I wore mens levis for years. They seem to be juuust right.
Oh Trill yeah! The last pair of jeans that I loved to death and wore to rags were from ezibuy.
OMG before I got pregnant I LOVED them, now I hate them. But I don't like high waist because then I can't breathe (or are my high waists too high? LOL! I am a short-ass) and find myself most comfortable in mid-waist (lol mid-waist I just made that up I think!). Thanks 'overhang' and damn hip fat! lol

Hehe no, Just Jeans does 'mid-waist' jeans, I bought a couple of pairs after having DD2 because I now have some savage apron-gut and need something a teensy bit higher than hipsters, but high-waisted jeans are soooo unflattering on me.
I used to love hipsters... when I actually had hip bones and a flat tummy :/ Now I have to wear one of those big baggy batwing-style tops with jeans because they're either giving me a muffin top or falling down around my ankles thanks to me having no bum![]()
I think it's more to do with the cut of the jeans and the fabric rather than them being low rise. I've tried on every pair in just jeans to find the right cut. Also a softer denim with a bit more give when it warms up might help.
I do love the low rise jeans but they are probably more suited to my shape now.
I recall the high waisted look of the 90's quite vividly and even more vivid in my mind is how unflattering it can look when someone is chunkier in the middle region and the jeans were buttoned up over it. I can't fit into my old 501's anymore because I am no where near as slender in the middle anymore but can't bear to part with them![]()
I'm a low rise, boot leg or flare kinda girl. No skinny jeans, and no high rise- they make me look like a midget.
Good denims are hard to find. No wonder people wear them till they go all holey.

i like hipsters but not low rise, and bootleg preferably.
