OK, they arrived. I am not sure if I am going to keep them. The waist actually fits, because I like to wear my pants lower, below my waist. They are loose, but not bulging out in the back. It's the bottoms of the legs I am not sure about. I tried them on in socks and they are down to the bottom of my feet. Almost on the floor. I have to try them on with my hiking boots and my x country boots. However, the velcro on the bottom of the legs has me puzzled. They are already wide legged and the velcro was not fastened to the tightest part. When i went to tighten the velcro,the pant bottom looks awful. I am not sure why it's there.
After I try them on with shoes, I will make my decision. It looks like it would be expensive or hard to hem because of the velcro/hem on the bottom. My husband has similar Ibex pants, but his have zippers on the legs. I always wanted some like his, but now I don't know if I can justify the expense; I don't think I would wear them outside of sports activities.
