Do these fit at the natural waist or are they "hip huggers"? Its hard to tell from the photos

They are not hip huggers- I ordered two of these shorts an XL and XXL. I am 5'3" and weigh approx. 212lb. I have only worn the XL, and it fits big. I didn't even bother opening the XXL. I put it away planning to wear during next pregnancy. They do go past my waist. So no, I did not find these shorts to be hip huggers.

I would say normal fit. They have elastic waistline. I have 34 inch waist and bought the large. They fit well. You will want to wash them a few times because they are a bit stiff at first. These will last you a lifetime. Made better than anything else I've bought for the woods.

Bill, They fit skin tight. I learned a trick on you tube for them. Bring your saddle bags in the house. Use a hair dryer to get the covers good and warm and they will stretch right over and when they cool they are nice and tight. Hioe this helps... Stay in the wind bro

It's a V going down so doesn't adjust around the waist. So no real size issues I sell a TON of these to contractors. They find them a little short sometimes if they are tall. But otherwise, all different people wear them! Hope that helps!

Mine are snug, especially when they are new. If you enlarge the middles picture for this item, it will show you the size chart on the back of the package. That is how I was fitted at a medical supply store before I ever purchased any online.

I think they are really thin. It's a good choice if you want a natural one.

Hi there, I would say they fit/sit just marginally below the waist... very comfortable shorts.

You don't "feel" them exactly - if they fit right you forget they are on. What you should notice is that your swelling is under control at the end of the day and/or your legs do not ache. HTH! As far as sizing, they sizing charts they provide seem correct to me.

These set on the waist you could push them down on the hips. They are nice and streachy so you could do what you want. Hope that helps, Helen West

They say you measure by "hip", but I have found them to be true to waist size. I wear a women's large pant and the large of these fits well.

I would call the fit a boyfriend kind of fit, but maybe a bit higher wasted. They aren't restrictive but they aren't baggy. They fit like my favorite jeans of my husband's to steal.

I ordered a size up and the waist was a little big, especially as I began to wear them more. They stetched somewhat. They still fit, but I definitely need a belt. If I had the chance to order again, I would go with the normal size (knowing they would be a little tight at first). Hope that helps!

I am also have a 33" waist, fairly thin (cyclist) build. I ordered the 32 and it was way too tight around the hips. The fabric stretches, so you could wear them, but I did not feel that they would be appropriate to wear to the gym due to the extra bulge in front. I returned and ordered the 34. A little big, but a much better fit around the hips. The drawstring keeps them from slipping down at the waist.

Yes, they are very natural looking. As long as you shape & fit them correctly, which is quite simple by the way, they're a keeper.

These pants are great. They sit at the waist and they have an elastic waist band. They run a little long. I'm 5'3" and had to hem them an inch. I'm also 63yrs. old so I understand about low rise pants and don't wear them myself. Hope this helped! Zumba on!!!

I bought a pair of them in different colours. Waist size is critical when selecting your item and fitts rather Ok. The feeling when wearing this wide built trousers is very comfortable although different if compared with other brands more fitted. If you want this garment to hike this is a good choice. I have been along Atacama desert and more then happy. Good luck hope having helped

The are flat front not pleaded. I think they are more classic not straight. They give your thighs breathing room, and the do not tapper at the ankles. I'm 46 and not buying anything straight fit. I hope this helps
