I??d say these are a mid rise, they sit 1-2cm below my belly button comfortably, and they aren??t super long. We don??t love jeans dragging on the ground, I??m 173cm and these are sitting just below the sole of my birks that I??m wearing whilst trying these on, and the length is good. I haven??t worn anything below my belly button for SO long but it??s actually a flattering height, the crutch sits in a good place. Pockets are functional, and they have a good amount of stretch.
