Very happy with these pants. As some other reviewers have said, the color is much darker than shown in the picture, more like the name of the description, which is graphite, rather than the color in the picture. You could also call them a dark charcoal. They are a very nice heavier weight and I would definitely buy them again. I just wish there were more colors available. Sizewize, I'm 5'5" and needed to wear about a 2" heel with them. The size chart shows a 36" waist for this size (16W), I would say the waist was larger, possibly even 40", and the hips were around 48". I normally wear an 18 in most pants, and this 16W fit me very comfortably.
