Okay, let me say, these pants feel amazing! They are nice, thick, and feel of good quality! They feel good against the skin when wearing them throughout the day in the cold winters here. They don�t feel rough or unpleasant, even when doing some running on the treadmill.
As for the fit, let me start off by giving you a brief on my body type. I have a mommy pouch, larger through the hips and smaller around the waist. I have bigger legs and calves, and I�m on the short side, standing 5�2� tall! The length was the biggest issue. I did use a hemming hand held machine to shorten the length a good bit before I bring it to the tailor to get hemmed. And through the hips, the side pockets don�t sit flush against my skin because as I stated, I have wider, bigger hips. Nothing that is truly bothersome, but worth mentioning.
If I had to change anything, instead of button snaps for pocket closures, I would have done a zipper. First, because it�s more secure, and secondly, it would take away the bulges for those with slightly wider hips like myself. I do appreciate the length as I am aware I am on the shorter side and do like the flare leg. Now take into account, if hemmed, the less of a flare it becomes, but still evident.
Considering all the pros versus the cons, I would rate these pants a ln 8/10! Very much a fan of these!
