Love these jeans.  Waist size seems to run a little large, I got 30" and I'm usually an 8, so I have to wear a belt.  While i don't like my jeans tight i will g down an inch or 2 next time.  If you're on the curvy side, I suffer from either a too small waist or too big of legs, you'll be very happy with fit.  I also went with longer size which is nice if you're over 5' 7" pants don't look like floods or capris.
