True to size, high/waisted, not much stretch. I am usually a 26 and sometimes wear 27, especially if I want them extra comfortable. These were great in a 26. There is not much stretch but I liked that for something different. They are still comfortable, hold your tummy in smoothly a little, if needed. I am 5”8 and about 125 with long legs and these came a few inches above my ankles and I liked that length with almost any shoe. I also liked that they weren’t total skinny jeans, not too tight at the bottom for something different and since they don’t have a lot or stretch. Overall, I love them!
