These jeans fit well. I weigh 159 lbs. I ordered a size 14, and I have a size 33.5 inch waist and about 43 inch hips. They do not feel big in any way or too small. They are the right length. I am 57 tall. I do not feel they lift your butt, but they are nice jeans. And yes, they are comfortable. They do not gap out or ride low in the back when I sit down. I would order these again in different colors. Very good quality.
