These are excellent polar fleece pants. I live in Microfleece pants during the winter and these are perfect. The fleece is the perfect weight and the pockets are an absolute plus. The high waist is perfect as you can tuck a too easily inside. The wide legs are lovely and stylish. I'm 5'7" and the sm...all fits perfectly in every way. True to size. The front is slightly baggy and no part is tight. The bottom area fits well. Good cut. The xsmall would cling a little more in the thigh if you prefer a snugger fit. The jet stream is nicer than black. Looks black at a distance and under certain lighting but it's nice to have some color. Black is my second favorite color. There should be a dark grey color. Great pair of winter pants. Pairs well with the zippered jacket and sweatshirt. Love it!!!
