I think these jogging pants run a little small. I'm 6ft 2" tall and wear jeans with a 34" waist. I have these jogging pants in sizes L and XL. I chose to buy XL for a "more comfortable" fit after L as they fit, but felt the stretch wasn't quite there, both in the pant material itself and the added waist features. The XL is longer and a bit roomier, but still has a slimmer waist, which I don't really like in jogging pants. Overall a good product and appears to be quality, maybe you just want to go bigger.
