The material and construction of the pants are great, but the length is just plain awkward. i'm 5'4" and the regular came to just above my ankles, and looked as though they had shrunk in the wash in a really bad way. a couple of inches longer and they would've been fine, or i could've gotten them in petite and worn them as true ankle-length pants, but the regular just didn't do it for me. also i'm usually a size 6 (5'4", 125lbs) and these were a little baggy around the waist and hips.
