These are a great fit!  I normally wear a pants size 12 and I debated between the medium and large...very glad I went with the MEDIUM.  I have several extra inches in the waist, hips and thighs, they are baggy but not giant--perfect.  Nice to have the elastic in the back for extra give in the  waist but still have the look of the flat front so it isn't bulky around the middle.
