I have been looking for 3 years for a good comfortable jean that is not a skinny jean, that does not bind, that is LONG ENOUGH that I can wear some Doc's or Chucks with a sweater in the winter, and not look like an OLD lady (even though I am old). I am 6ft tall, and I bought the 22W. I am a 22 in just about everything, some I am a 20. I could size down, but I really like the way the legs fit across the thigh in these. I will be buying more.
