*The
"Rise" is the distance from the bottom of the crotch
to the top of the waist.
If
the top is just a touch too big, just sew a tuck at the top in
the middle of the back when you hem them. They'll fit like a
dream.
NOTE: THESE
PANTS ARE CUT LOW!
The "actual top of pants" measurement
on these will not match the measurement of your natural waist!
So measure below your navel - not right at it.
VERY
TALL WOMEN TAKE NOTE:
The inseam (inside leg length) is 38"
on all sizes - plenty of fabric there to hem
regularly or make nice cuffs no matter what your height.
