This waist size was good, but the pants were a little long.  After hemming them up, they were the perfect fit.  I never thought we were short (5'7") but maybe we are shrinking in our old age.  The pants are warm, we wear them around the house during the winter and find them to be very comfortable.  They do good in the laundry.  It's been a while since we've had them, but I think we got these quickly and in great condition.  I would buy from this seller again.
