More like 5/8, but still great at this price

I love 3/4 bottoms for skiing, they're perfect mid layers as I hate having crap in my boot or stuff scrunched up on my calf. The quality of these is top-notch, the merino is soft, stretchy, supportive, all around great.

Fit is good and true to size at the waist for me (usually a women's M, 30" waist ~37" hip), but the leg length length is a little bit short. As shown on the model in the picture it really does fit just below the knee. If you're bending your knee a lot (either free-heel or climbing) they tend to ride up a bit and allow a gap above your ski socks. I usually use smartwool ski socks and they are pretty long, but not knee length. It's not that big an issue, it would just be nice if they were ~2" longer.
