Fits true to size. Light and fit like a jogger. They have a great elastic band that stretches well. The pockets are a plus and give these pants a nice look even in solid colors. What pleased me the most was that they didn't wrinkle like most lightweight running shoes. They are very soft and comfortable. My daughter wears them after every cleaning. I highly recommend them for spring, summer and fall. They're thin and you can't see the panties when they're on. Worth the price.
