I love these shorts but sadly they no longer fit. The perfect Jean short. I have a smaller waist and larger hips and a butt and they fit perfectly. They have a slight flare/a-line fit in the leg. Button-fly closure as well. From Madewell’s Website: Freshly updated (cuz we heard you like a little less "mom" in your Momjeans), these superhigh-rise shorts are fitted through the waist with an easy A-line shape. Made of 100 percent cotton denim, they come in our best-selling ultra-light wash. High rise, easy fit through hip and leg. Front rise: 12"; inseam: 4". Do Well: For each pair made at the Fair Trade Certified™ Saitex factory, we contribute to a Community Development Fund managed by the workers. 100% cotton denim. Machine wash. Import.
