EXCEEDED expectations.
I had wanted these pants for a while but wasn't sure how they'd fit me (big hips, soft tum, etc.) Took the plunge and bought the whole set with the pullover. OMG these pants. They are perfect. Warm, soft (I love that the waffle on the inside is smooth and flat and feels so good against the skin). The espresso color is so chic and the pants fit like a dream. My only dilemma is now I want another set and they are a bit $$. However, for the way these fit, feel, and look, I am so happy with this purchase. Great pants, NEGATIVE!
