The fit on these is starkly different than the "black hawk" version also being sold online. i could barely get my leg in those! i typically wear a 27-29 - a 28-29 in this brand of jeans - and the 29 fit great. i have very large calves, so most "kick out" cop flares don't really provide the full effect for my body type, but these worked really well and i could definitely see the flare at the bottom. i am 5'8" and these hit right above my ankle, just as pictured online.
