These jeans are comfortable to wear yet they are sturdy thick denim. I wear size 38 inch waist jeans and these "Relaxed Fit" fit well; but I would think the regular size 38 inch would be too small for me. These jeans feel good to wear. The fabric is broken in evenly; though still have new denim qualities. They are not loose or baggy on me; but fit well. They cover my knee caps in length. They feel well made. They have nice uniform stone wash hues.
