I (not Heather) had the PE Portfolio in 34 waist and liked them but lost weight and ordered a single pair in 33.  I did not realize that the Modern Fit (the 33) was NOT what my 34s were and was pleasantly surprised when these arrived.  The rise is lower, the cut it trim but not tight and they fit and look nicely tailored.  My non-modern fit of the same pants now seem baggie and sloppy by comparison. I bought two additional pair after receiving the first and came back online today to buy a forth color.
