When I state somewhat large, I am referring to the LEG OPENINGS. These are very comfortable and wash up great. But once on,I can feel the looseness of the leg holes and that feels uncomfortable. I think I should of bought a size smaller. The other thing that I notice is the material sticks to my clothing. In spite of these things, I think they are good quality material and are quality made. If this will help anyone to know what size to buy, I weigh 110 lbs. and I bought a size 6.
