I’m 5’7”, currently about 170lbs but more fat than muscle. I purchased these when I was probably around 200lbs. The slightly elastic waistband and long cinch cord mean they have fit perfectly the entire time.
They aren’t as high waisted as I prefer, but not to the point that I can’t wear them. I can have my shirt tucked or not. It is just a slightly different sensation to get used to.
They are a light fabric. I run hot and wear them year round in Florida. I have worn them during winter in Virginia, from 40s - 10s F. (Not if I will be outside for a prolonged period of time. They’re fine for coming and going, but would need a proper insulating layer to be winter weather appropriate.)
Love having pockets on the sides and one on the back. Although I don’t use them often, I haven’t had any issues with sitting either my phone in there, nor with it pulling my waistband down.
I wash on cold and dry on low-medium heat. If there was any shrinking at the beginning, I didn’t notice. I don’t see any difference in the color.
