These are the most comfy pants I've ever put on my body. I'm 5'8" with a 35" inseam and the tall length falls perfectly to the side of my foot. Pre-pregnancy I would have ordered a L or XL if I wanted them to fit loose. I got a XXL in these to accommodate the body changes like widening hips and they fit perfect. Hips are currently 47" around, thick thighs are 25" around, and baby bump/waist is 36" around. If you want them tighter, they do have an incredible amount of stretch to them. If you're a pear shape like me, don't expect to wear them for awhile because the belly area was loose. I'm just now barely able to keep them up at 18 weeks. Under a white shirt, they don't show that obviously. Pockets are a good size. Sides aren't ruched so they lay smooth, and they do NOT have that uncomfortable adjustable waist button and elastic hassle, which in my case makes them arthritis-friendly. I'll miss these pants after pregnancy. They're SO comfortable.
