It's such a relief to find a pair of trousers that fit both my waist and hips - no more dreaded gaping at the top. I found the length about right, I'm 5'4 but have a high waist. They wash well in my washing machine on a hand wash cold cycle and are getting lots of wear both at work and home. Love them!

Winter ready!
Summer is drawing to a close here in Australia. As sad as I am about that I'm so excited for Winter thanks to these trousers! The fabric is comfy and breathable and the shape is wonderful! One thing I will say is pay attention to the name, they are bottle green and not the dark teal pictured. Either way you won't be disappointed.
