I don't know whyyy no one is mentioning how big these run. They are really long and flared and are super duper stretchy. Like 360 stretch and issh.. I'm bottom heavy, wide hips and big butt and they'll pull up easy. If you are bottom heavy, I would size down 1.. if you aren't bottom heavy I suggest sizing down 2. If you are tall these are perfect, If you are shorter like me, you're gonna have to get them hemmed or cut them. Overall, a really nice looking jean, but you might have to return it a few times to get the right size.
