I love this brand & style of pants. I bought the same pair/style 2 years ago in a Walmart store & they seem to fit better than the recent ones I bought from Amazon. Maybe because after 2 years the first pair is a little more close fitting in the leg, which is what I wanted. But I really thought the new pair would be tighter & the old worn out pair would be...well... worn out & loose. Strange. I can't wear skinny jeans & the first pair of store bought jeans fit more like close to my ankles so I can wear cute slip on shoes etc, but the Amazon pair are loose & the legs are wider. Really nice comfortable fit thought, loose & moves with you. I have larger hips & these pants fit great without being overly stretchy.
