I love these. They are just the right fit...not too tight and not too looseJust the right fit.My wife tells me that these are generally very nice pants, and the material is very soft and comfortable. She wears them when going walking with friends, and around the house.She mentioned two downsides: the legs are a bit too long in her size, and while the waist size is correct the elastic is very strong, so much so she doesn't need to tie the string. She prefers a looser fit at the waist, so she can tie it to her desired amount of snugness.I love the thickness and softness of the pants. The cord used in the elastic is a nylon cord that won't split or shred.The pants are smaller than I expected. The elastic does give some, but I should have ordered up. They are also a little longer than I expected. The bottom of each leg is more fitted to hold them in place. I am 5' 3" so they are perfect for taller people.These sweatpants are comfortable and very soft. The bands around the ankles are made of the same material as the rest of the pants, so it has some stretch but isn't tight enough to press into my ankles. (I'm on the shorter side and the ankle bands keep me from tripping over extra fabric, and the extra fabric means there is no pulling about the knees when I sit.) The two pockets in the front are deep enough to tuck my hands into or hold my cell phone. Overall, these are cozy and nice jogger-style sweatpants suitable for everyday wear and the dusty purple color is pretty.Sizing: I'm 5'5" and 160lbs, and the large fits me perfectly. The waist is easy to size down with a functional drawstring and solid elastic band wide enough to be comfortable and secure. If you're between sizes, I'd error on the larger size.Packaging: The pants came in a zippered recyclable bag, but the thing that caught my eye was that the bag is made of recycled and biodegradable materials. Printed onto the bag is "I am keeping the earth in good shape" in attractive block letters, which is helpful if you want to re-use the bag for things like sending a change of clothes in with your pre-schooler or separating items in your suitcase.Very comfortable and stretchyThese sweatpants are perfect for me. I'm 5'2" tall, and regular sweatpants are almost always too long for me. I could wear these pants every single day! Yes, they're that comfortable!Product was as described. The sizing seems to be standard, but perhaps a bit looser than expected. I wouldn't say they run large, but they do seem to have a little extra room-- no problem for me as I'd rather have them slightly loose than slightly too tight. They were very comfortable.They washed well per instructions and I'd considered ordering them again.These are really comfortable! They are more of stretchy material and nice and thick. For reference I am 5ft 6in and 153lbs. I normally wear a medium, but for these I actually wanted a looser fit when I just want to be really comfortable. So I would say they run pretty true to size. I’ll be definitely buying more!
