I love the pants, but I find myself reaching for the cotton or denim versions more. The brand recommends sizing down. I am normally a 12 and these fit fine. From the designer’s website: $450 Flat front, mid-rise, relaxed fit pant in stretch corduroy. Uniquely curved silhouette. Easy gently tapered legs. Seam detail at knees. Zip fly with hidden hook and bar closure. Hidden button closure. Top-stitched front and back patch pockets. Belt loops.
