Very similar to the old grey Christa DIYs!
I've been hoping Dovetail would bring back the grey Christa DIYs, and even though these are a tad different, they still fill the need of a comfy weekend pant that I can lounge on the couch in but also run to the store or studio in. With the new thermal lining they are a tad warmer than the old ones. I could do without the thermal quality, but I mostly wear these in the fall/winter anyways so it's fine. I'm 5'2" and typically wear size 6 pants and the Small fit perfect. With the the 31" inseam I still have to roll them up three times. An ideal inseam for me would be 26". They fixed the tie in the waist band a bit so it has a smaller channel, though I really wish it tied on the inside instead of the outside of the pant for a cleaner look. Overall the fabric has a similar stretch and feel to the old grey version. I'm satisfied with these, especially since I searched for something comparable when the old ones were discontinued and never found a replacement.
