These pants are great! My husband bought them for me for a trip we had planned. Very comfortable, stretchy and easy to move in. Despite a more technical/rugged, they are flattering on my frame. They wick away water in light to moderate rain. The only thing I would change is adding a second button to secure the waist. Either a stacked double button, or a second “hidden” button. Despite having a little room in the waist, the single button always looks like it is coming undone.
They are true to your normal size! I was worried they would not fit, because my waist is a 28.5” and hips 41”, I’m 5’7” 160lbs and normally wear a size 6. I went with a size 6 based on the hip size on the listed size chart despite the waist being big. They fit well! Which is good considering they cannot be returned.
