I've worn the same size of this Levi's style for years and they fit fine. However the bottom 2 buttons were very hard to button. I had to do both of them while not wearing them. Almost had to use a pair of pliers to button them. Then I put the pants and was able to button the top 3 without any problem. Fortunately I can just keep the bottom 2 buttoned and get the pants on and off.
