I've worn this style for a couple years and was thrilled to find them on Amazon.  But the sizing has changed. The first pair I ordered was an 8, the size I had and loved, fit well in the thighs and seat, a little loose at the waist. The new pair was significantly smaller through the waist, almost 3" less, than the pairs I owned. They were also longer by app 2 1/2", enough so that I checked the inside tag thinking the wrong size had been sent. I ordered a second pair last week in the next size larger. The length is great and the waist is identical to the smaller size pairs I own. Fit is a bit looser through the thighs and seat but I'll take that over being pinched at the waist. While not an issue for me, note that the denim is lightweight.
