I am athletically built, with thick muscular thighs, curvy hips, and a butt. I couldn't even pull this over mid thigh. Either I received a pair that was miss sized or they are only for slender or petite women.

Nice pants but too tight

Great quality pants, I loved the look of them because they look very sleek and the fabric is thin. Unfortunately sizing is not consistent between the Backcountry on the go pants. I bought an XXS in the cropped version and they fit perfectly. But I wasn?t able to even get this version passed my thighs. The waist/hips region were so tight, I will have to return.

Nice pants

I'm on the petite side and have a hard time finding pants that can fit me. I love the material of the pants, very light weight and something i can wear around the house or on hikes. I read that the pants are on the smaller size so I ordered both an XXS and a XS. The XXS was too small as it couldn't make it past my butt, and the XS was perfect. It's a little tight around the thighs, but I can still move around in them.

Odd sizing for me, nice pants though

These pants have so much potential! Great material, love the colors and elastic waist band. They seem like they would be great for any outdoor activity in addition to lifestyle or work. Unfortunately they struck my three personal classic patterns when it comes to hiking/climbing pants: too loose around the waist, too tight around the thigh, and too long. I am 5'4", 125 lb with an athletic build - small stomach and waist with somewhat girth-y thighs from squatting and running. My legs may also be proportionally short for my height. Didn't find anything wrong with the pants themselves, bummer they didn't fit. Hope this helps anyone with similar sizing issues. By the way, I ordered a small and medium. The small had the issues I mentioned above, the medium was flat out too big for me.

Way too small

I ordered a medium without reading the other reviews. Wish I had! These pants were more like an XS than a medium. Could barely get them on.

Weird sizing

S

The S in these is smaller than the XS Stoic pant by almost an inch. Like other reviewers said, even with sizing up it can be hard to get these over your thighs/hips because the front (no elastic) has no give whatsoever. But once I did, it fit great on the waist! It was still a tad tight on the caboose, and the length was a tad short, so I decided it wasn't worth keeping.

Sizing off

I liked the on-the-go pants I got that had the elastic at the ankles. I checked with Backcountry via chat to make sure these pants were sized the same, just with a straight leg. These ones are a lot smaller. I was excited to have two more pairs of these comfy pants but they have to be returned.

Great pants

Love these pants. They have great stretch and are very comfortable.

Had high hopes

I had really high hopes for these pants, loved the mauve color. But the fit was horrible. The rise wasn't high enough for me, and I sized up for a L and they JUST fit. (I'm a size 8 / 29" waist) There's zero stretch and I could barely get them over my hips. If the elastic waistband was stretchier, or paired with a zip or something for a more tailored fit perhaps it would have worked. But the cut was too straight for my shape, loose at the waistband, tight thru the thighs, could barely get on, and I was just rather disappointed. Probably would have been too light of a fabric to do much aside from lounging anyway. Returned and did not keep

The sizing on these pants is way off relative to the size chart provided. I am normally a large and that's what I ordered based on the measurements in the size chart. I could barely put these pants on. I wanted them to fit so badly because they look very comfortable. I don't think athletic ladies were taken into account when designing these :/
