Oh my God!  I have had so many jeans not fit me, I didn't want to get my hopes up.  I have a 26" waist and 37" hip/butt and every other pair always had a huge gap in the back.  I hated sitting down as it would show my butt crack.  I couldn't wait to try them on.  These fit like a dream!  Just enough room to wiggle them over my widest area and the hidden draw string closes the gap.  I love that these are boot cut.  I am never comfy in skinny jeans that pinch and pucker.  They are soft like advertised.  They are not sweat pants (believe me, I wear a few of those).  Not gonna sleep in them but great for lounging in and casual workplaces.  Fingers crossed they hold up long term.  They seem well made so if they hold up I will be replacing all my jeans with these.
