For context I am 5’3” 130 lbs with a small waist but a large bum. I’m a typical size SMALL in most all brands for both tops and bottoms. I originally purchased the size small and was dismayed at how large they were on me! But the length was perfect. I think ever since Mountain Hardwear was purchased by Columbia?, the sizing has become inconsistent. Luckily it seems that the quality of material is still there. I then purchased the XS. The fit seemed like it would be tight, but once I pulled it over my bum, fits comfortable and snug - however - the length is noticeably shorter - almost like “petite” sizing, which is disappointing. I will keep this pair though, as I mentioned, they are still good quality pants for winter!
