I prefer these to the women's jeans because 1. they fit as well and 2. they're less expensive.

Important note: if you can't comfortably wear your regular unlined jeans in the same size with long underwear underneath them, then you might want to order these in a size up or lose a couple of lbs first. I have 2 pairs of these, one in a 29" and the other in a 30". The 30" unlined is too large for me, but is perfect with the lining, whereas the 29" lined are wearable, but are just a little bit snug, although a 29" is what I wear for unlined.

Legs are definitely relaxed, fairly wide. I'm accustomed to wearing carpenter - type styles, so this is comfortable for me.

Otherwise, I love these and won't wear unlined jeans again until May. They're not truly insulated and I still wear snow pants over them when the temperatures are below 45, but they keep out the wind and the worst of the chill when I'm outside. Inside, they simply keep me comfortable.

They shrink slightly when first washed, but I've washed them 2x a week since I bought them last fall and they've held up quite well.
