In a size 2, the rise to the waistband is 8 inches. They sit about 2 inches below the natural waistline.

If I'm measuring correctly, I coming up with a rise of about 10 inches. For me, the top of the waist come a fraction of an inch below my belly button.

It will open up a very long way. I too have a large waist. I am a size 18 and it will go out much bigger than me. Mine is different than the one shown tho so I can not answer for that one. MY waist unfortunately is about a 42.

I'm 5'2 and it comes to my waist. They are standard size. Don't doubt the buy. They are all that and more!

I'm a 36 waist too and this is rather snug. It's bearable, but only for an hour or two until my back begins to hurt, so you may want to go a size up, depending on your intended use.

There is a drawstring to adjust to fit your waist. I've been wearing for the past 2 years, and I have never had a problem with them falling down or not fitting well.

I ordered a size up and the waist was a little big, especially as I began to wear them more. They stetched somewhat. They still fit, but I definitely need a belt. If I had the chance to order again, I would go with the normal size (knowing they would be a little tight at first). Hope that helps!

It does raise you up some off the seat to the point where you have to adjust the height of your seat for your legs to be comfortable.

If you'll be concealed carrying using an in-the-waistband holster (IWB), then definitely go up an inch or 2 more than your regular size.

I get these for my mother and her waist fluctuates between 36-40. They might fit larger too. They have a good bit of stretch.

I would go with a longer inseam. They tend to be low rise . The waist maybe one size up because of additonal layers of clothing. Depends on what you want to use them for. For ice fishing, it's good to have a little more room to work on tip ups, etc.. ( lots of bending over..)

The general rule of thumb is to have 3" additional over your actual waist size. That's what I did and it works fine.

I will say about 3 feet, it can be raised pretty high, I am 5'9" and it can come up to my waist.

It depends on your body /chosen size combination. In my case it went up to 1 inch below belly button. All these shorts are higher in the back for better coverage while in the bent cycling position. Hope this helps.

They fit right below the natural waist. They allow you to walk bend and sit without dropping low. I'm in my sixties and find them both comfortable and modest.

If its too large it will go up. If its the right size for you and it will stay fit on your body than you will have no problems.

Whatever is most comfortable for you would be the best answer. I would wear it so it was at the bottom - near my waist.

yes the shoulders with doesn't really matter and the waist adjusts from 30" up
