I love these pants for summer and lounging around. I have four of these in sizes large and ex-large, both fit well. I am 5'5" about 200lbs. These look nice with a plain t-shirt and sandals. The waistband is very comfortable.  The elastic around the legs is the only thing I don't really like, but it is not tight fitting. I have taken the elastic out of a couple of pairs of them and like it much better. You have to be careful removing the elastic because the fabric is delicate and prone to fraying, but the main seam is easy to locate and open up. I tried to find some without elastic, but they were very expensive for some reason. If these were made without the elastic legs, I would probably own more.
