They look true to the pictures, I love the length, the style, and the design. My waist is 62cm/24in and it fits just right, however with a lot of room still left. I would’ve preferred it to be tighter so it could ‘hug’ the shape of my body (I’m built like a door). The belt really doesn’t do anything lol, it doesn’t make it tighter, just purely for design. My opinion in this is that a lot of the jean’s features is just for aesthetics and style, not so much functionality. But that being said, with some styling I’m sure it’ll look amazing!
