These jeans have just the right curve.  I don't have a small waist and these fit well without a whole lot of "overflow".  I wear a 14 and they were true to size, a little short, but that is common for me (32 too short, 34 too long).  I like the pocket position on the backside, they aren't too low and on the thighs.  These jeans actually make my butt look good.
