I'm an athletic 5'2" 125 lbs and these fit GREAT.  I got a 4P and do not have to hem them.  The drawstring is stretchy and is necessary.  My only complaint is that there is only one pocket on the right thigh and it doesn't fit my Iphone 8plus.  The material is very lightweight and may show defects in skin if one wore these tightly.  I've had mine for about 4 months and worn them at least once a week without any pilling. I'm not washing them on delicate, but I usually  pull them out before drying as they are so lightweight even in humid Texas they will dry quickly laid on the counter.
