I'll start out by saying these are very comfortable and well made
pants. The size can be a little tricky...I am 5'9", 178lbs, athletic build and the Med is too big! They are very long (3-4in on the ground) and have a bungee around the leg open that can be tightened but this gives you so much extra material around your shoes, it looks ridiculous. They are also extremely baggy in the legs and I don't have small legs. I would say that if you are just buying them for around the house or as
pajamas, they would be good. But if you want to wear them to the
gym or out anywhere, you should size down (unless you are one of those who likes to wear your clothes eight sizes too big and hanging off your backside). I will be returning for a small when available.
