We returned to an elastic waistband at your request. And we removed the back pocket you didn't care for. What stayed the same? We knit ours extra thick, making the soft fleeced interior comfortable to slip into after a workout or a hard day. That extra heft means they'll last longer too. We kept the side pockets for car keys and other essentials. And to control shrinkage, we give our sweatpants a gentle garment wash before sending them to you. No "sizing up" needed. Full elastic waistband with drawstring Sits at waist Relaxed through hip and thigh Tapered leg Knit plush for maximum comfort Garment washed to hold back shrinkage Two handy side pockets for whatnots Inseam: Regular, 30"; Tall, 32"
