“Size Range is not Quite Right”

“These pants are fantastic, I ordered two of them, the fabric is so nice, but they are in the lower end of the stated size range. I ordered a Large which they say is a 36-39. I wear a 38 comfortably in Wrangler Jeans, as in my 38's are getting a little lose on me. I can get these zipped, but they are very tight and right now, not wearable. A Large in these pants are definitely a 36, at least comparing them to Wrangler's. It's okay though because I've been aggressively losing weight for a backpacking trip that's coming up in four weeks, which I think they'll be great for, so I'm keeping them. They'll be good motivation to lose one more size! :D”
