I was unsure about getting these and mulled over the decision for several months. But now that I have them I am glad that I did it! Size is dead on just keep in mind when putting them on (if your like me) and have nice size thighs that might seem a little snug bug once they are pulled to the waist they fit great ( this is to keep the waist from being to loose) . The ONLY reason that I am giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is because they need to come in short sizes, they are too long for my 5'3" self, but I love the anyway and you probably will to!
