I bought these to wear it to my gym and hiking on open trails during the winters. The fleece lining keeps my legs very warm and the size and shape of the pant hugs my body wells. It is not very loose like it looks in the photo. I also sometimes wear it around the house as it is very comfortable. I also noticed that it does not shed and is color-fast during the first wash. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to own a comfy pant to wear during exercising.
