Loose woven cool grade cotton with bold tie dye art. Each print is unique so yours may differ in detail, colour, and pattern from that pictured but will be similar.

Measurements
- 1 inch (1") = 2.54cm.
- The given sizes are approximations only, exact measurements may vary.
- The items label may not match the advertised size, Asian labeling can be non-standard and we will often market an item according to European standards.
- To compare sizes take a similar item of your own that fits well and lay it flat, smooth it out and make sure it is buttoned or zipped if applicable. Use a tape measure to measure straight across, making sure the tape measure is tight.
- You may need to leave extra room for bulky items or for movement.
- Mao hill tribe pants are suitable for both men and women.
- Mao pants have wide baggy hips and thighs, and the inseam is extremely low cut, so these do not need to be considered when judging the size.
- Waist is measured around the pants at the absolute top. We have given the full range of waist measurements we judge this pair can be worn by.
