The pants are longer than I expected.  I am 5'6" and normally wear 18.  They are very roomy and very long.  Maybe they will shrink a bit when washed although I am not very hopeful based on the material (not cotton).  Otherwise I like the lightweight material and the pockets.  I tried them with my hiking shoes that have a taller sole and they are still a bit too long, so it looks like hemming is my only real option..
