The 2's were a bit loose when I got 'em, but I figured the 0's would be too small so never even tried them on. I've lost a few lbs. since, and now the 2's are falling off me. They are also stretchy so the 0's probably would have been fine. Funny too, the old zip-off pants I have from them (at least 10 years old) are 4P. So there is is size inflation there like so many other places, but at least they carry smaller sizes now.
And they're about the only outdoor retailer that carries larger women's sizes -- a lot of them don't have anything over 12 or 14.
