The fabric composing these pants is a thicker cotton, and does not have stretch at all. This is not a problem, however, because the way the pants are built does not restrict range of movement. I am 5'5" and I can wear these low on my hips, the ends hitting my ankles, or up on my waist, resulting in a longer capri style. Sometimes the pants ride up from my hips to sit at my waist, such as when I drive. Doesn't bother me much. The pocket(s?) are large (can hold my kindle) and the drawstring keeps the waistband up even when the pockets are full. Great pants. I have black and red, love them both!
The pants are awesome, but they are capris on me. I am 5’10.5 and they are capris on my height. I still love them, but would definitely order the tall next time for this specific design, if you are as tall as me and want pants not capris. I have other pants from here that are much longer and fit great, even without the tall. Maybe I should have read more reviews and ordered the tall prior. I don’t think it’s the companies fault and the customer service is awesome! Definitely a solid company!
