I wish I could give 0 stars. The waist band has no elasticity and unless you tie the drawstring your pants will hit the floor every time you stand up. The tie has no give so you can't tie it loosely and shimmy the pants off when you're undressing. These pants have 2 options: tied tightly or forever falling. Maybe you like that, but it's not my thing... The material also snags very easily. I have to be careful putting it into my dresser or walking past a coffee table or resting a book on my lap. Horrible. My advice: pay a little extra for something that stays on your hips and will last longer than a month.
