It's hard for me to find good pants, especially after having kids. My postpartum belly is so sensitive to anything tight. Initially I didn't like the wide leg look (I prefer boot cut or flare). But the material and loose fit make these pants so comfortable. I originally got the small (I'm usually a small in other brands), but the waistband was too tight for me. So I exchanged for a medium. The medium almost seems a little loose, but at least I can tie the string tighter or fold the waistband down. The pants don't have the cropped look like on the model, but I prefer them longer. I also got them in the light pink color (conch), and those ones are a little bit tighter in the waistband than the bone color, which is actually a perfect fit for me. It's funny how different colors in the same style fit differently. I also got the conch quarter-zip sweatshirt in medium (which I'm wearing with the medium bone pants in the photos). I normally wear a size small in tops but I sized up in this brand. I'm 5'6" and 132lb and 32D bra size.
