Hmmmm....
I'm not sure if these pants are supposed to be super high waist or if they have a low crotch. I didn't like them when I first put them on, but they looked better when I pulled them up to the point that the crotch fit. The fabric is lightweight and has no stretch. There's a zipper and a hook closure. The leg is very wide. The top of the thigh was a bit snug, but I have disproportionately large thighs. I usually wear a size 10. I sized up to be on the safe side. I definitely needed the extra room. For fit reference, I'm 5'6" and 153lbs. The 12 was a good choice.<br /><br />Thanks so much for taking the time to read this review. I hope the information that I've provided makes your decision a little easier.
