I normally wear a 38 and like the fit to be slightly loose in the crotch and thigh area, also prefer shorts that stop at knee, these fit the bill?

The sizing is "generous" and should be loose. As to the length...well, it depends on how tall you are! I'm 5'6" and the shorts are just below my knees.

I was told to get the next size up which I did and I LOVE these...very comfortable, and glad I followed the advice.

Based on your preferences, I would have to say that you would not be happy with the Propper tactical shorts. I don't think they are overly tight in the crotch or thighs, but they aren't loose. I will say, at least for me they stop at the knee. Try some TruSpec brand and I think you will be pleased.

I wear a 33 and sometimes 34 waist. I have a couple size Large zoot shorts and they fit nicely. They fit pretty snug - probably exactly the way most triathletes want them to. But all of my tri shorts seem to shrink a little over time. So I purchased the XL's for these and I am very happy with them. I would buy an XL again if I had to and I'm guessing that is probably what you should go for. I don't have any issues with any parts sagging or fitting loosely. Depending on your height you may want to go for a shorter inseam as these land an inch or 2 above my knee (just personal preference).

The medium I ordered was a good fit with plenty of room for adjustment, expand or contract. I have biker thighs. A small size would probably work

I found the tightest fitting part of these thermals was the calves. The waist actually fit my 38" comfortably with room around the hips for my standard issue under-roos.

The size was fine for me. The cut of the shorts is loose.." relaxed fit" through the hip.

Yes but they do not have padding on the outside thigh and hip area like sliding shorts do. I use these for MMA fighting. I love them. Mediums are between 32 and 34.

I purchased my actual size and they sag down my knee...I would buy the tighter ones if I purchased them again....

I wear a large for size 36 (waist). I would order a medium for a 32 (waist)

I wear a size 8 in regular pants, and the Size L fits a little bit loose on me. Also, the crotch is quite short, so I thought a medium might be a little restrictive for me.

I have a 35 waist and bought XL. They fit well. My legs are not thin, probably medium to above average.

These shorts run small, a large should be good but it also depends on your physique and the way you wear clothes

I wear a 32 waist and about a 32 inseam, and medium regular fits me great with a little room for expansion. a medium long should work.

Hey, I'm out of town right now, but I ordered size 2, and they fit fine. I'm 5'5", 24" waist and about 35" low hip/bum, 20" upper thighs. Were slightly loose, but not at all sloppy. Hope this helped some.

I'm sorry but don't think I can help. Being 5'8" I took up the stretch in the length so they were too small around the thighs. The company was very kind to return them and refund my money. I wish they would have fit, I liked the style.

The shorts do run small so, I would go up 2 sizes. I know size 40 doesn't look good on that rear tag but you will enjoy the fit.

I usually wear 33x32 pants and Large is perfect. Not tight around the waist, and legs are 1/16" above the ground. They do have an adjustable drawstring, so sizes should be somewhat flexible!

I'm a size 32, and I wear a Large. They are meant to be tight, but I gave myself a little extra room. I wear them under my board shorts when surfing, since it prevents chaffing from my shorts.
