I tried these on in the store. The thighs and calves were fitted, just shy of tight, but the waist was enormous, like 1.5 inches to spare at least. I dint think I understand the curvesetter thing.

I used to love these pants, I have them in every color. After the color changes I swear these aren't the same pants. I'm not sure if the fabric changed or what but they are not the same and I'm not as in love with them. It's such a bummer because I used to tell everyone about them - they worked so well for farm work. These new ones do not feel as comfy or durable.
It is so good to find these pants and to have a pair of pants which are not blue or brown. Thank you for making these and they fit well according to size.
However, Duluth doesn't have a size that actually fits. I got a size 2 last time but I really need a zero. I also find it a little ridiculous that, in the name of inclusion and the great size shift, small women are disregarded. That being said I really like the FUNCTIONAL pockets, and they're really comfortable.
I've never had a pair of pants give me a blister until now. I love cargo pants, but the side pocket in these pants is the most uncomfortable pocket I've ever had to deal with. It has a thick upper edge that literally rubs your thigh in the wrong way. The waist isn't that great either, gapping open and there's no give in the hips. Overall, this needs a rethink in design.
