From pics, they're meant to be baggy, though I wonder if I should size down (bought usual XL). Because of their loose, baggy nature, the legs can stick out at the thighs. (It's part of their look.) Very lightweight, I could even wear them on mild summer days, and they look better cuffed as shown, though you could wear them long. Back pockets are small and very low, designed, I think, to wear with your shirt untucked, but then you don't see the cute embroidered patch on the front (back pocket view depends on shirt length). They reach high-rise, but not sure if they're supposed to or they should sit at the waist and be extra roomy. I do like them, quirky, comfy, cute, slouchy, casual...but they require careful thought for coordinating tops. Plain front, elastic back. Pricey pants and expensive to return. Despite their oddities, I do like them, and when the weather decides to warm up, I imagine wearing them quite a lot. Wish the photos included the waistband with the shirt tucked to better exemplify their look. (Hint, hint...)
