I’m more on the thicker side and i’m approx 5’10 in height. i usually wear a size 9 which fits pretty snug but that’s how i like my jeans so they don’t get that weird sag look in the front. anyways, i kept seeing reviews saying to order 2 sizes bigger and they were right! even with me ordering a size 11 the waist area is pretty snug but tolerable and the length just perfectly hits right below my ankle. being a tall girl i despise high water jeans and these are not! i love them!!
