These are an excellent pair of jeans. I originally bought the powerhouse jeans which is the darker pair in the picture. They fit great. Not too baggy and not too slim. I loved them so much that I went ahead and bought the acorn pair. They seem to fit a bit looser then the powerhouse but that might be because they aren't denim. I still love them. Size wise since I seen others say that different pairs are completely different sizes, both pairs being 32x32 lined up almost perfectly when compared. Definitely buying more in the future! Oh I'd take it that the modern series isn't just a name but that it implies the jeans are more form fitting but not completely slim or skinny if that makes sense.
