I love the cut of these swim bottoms. They’re high waisted without being matronly. Back coverage I’d say is slightly less than full coverage but not overly cheeky. I do think they run a bit small. I’m 5’8.5 and 157 pounds, usually a 10, sometimes 8, in pants. I got the L swim bottom and considered going up to an XL. Ultimately, I think I’ll stick with the L but I wish it was just a hair looser in the waistband. If you’re between sizes, I’d go up.
