Ordered a S/M, should have gotten the large.  Out of the package they look like capris but once on the fit like highwater leggings- about an inch above the ankle.  They are low rise, so ladies with a little pooch- not too comfortable.  I tried them on but haven't been out in the day with them yet so I don't know how opaque they really are.  Even though they are short in length, they will still work well with some mid-calf or knee high boots.  Nice dark grey color.

**Update:  wore them one, now have a very small hole in the crotch.  After wearing them all day, they started wrinkling at the knee, kept having to pull them up to straighten them out.
