I have owned sweats like these before, and I loved them, but I received these and put them on and they were so unflattering. They kind of made me look like I was wearing a diaper. The waist fit, but the area with the elastic and tie was a little bulky too. If you're just usign them to lounge and don't care about the fit too much, then they would be comfy and warm, but I had to return them unfortunately.
