I have these in size 28 and I have a 27" or 28" waist, 5' 7" 135 lbs and they rest comfortably on my hips and reach just above my knees. The cotton exterior is a bit thick, thicker than the Jett Raptor's soft brushed exterior at least, and not stretchy. I'd say the fit very true to size and they do not have velcro adjustment straps on the waist like the Lightning. I've sent mine through the washer machine on cold and hung dried them--they measure 12" inside leg end to crotch and 22" outside leg end to the side of the waistband. I loosely put a string through the belt loops, stretched the shorts, clipped it, and it measured 33 1/2", but it is a contoured cut with a higher back. I figure these measurements should help if you compare them to measurements of similar pair of shorts that you already own.
