IH-666Sod - Devil's Fit Overdyed - Super Slim Tapered

[Increase]

My size 32 in my current pair is both the tag size and the current waist size, I was not giving an arbitrary tag size. I was simply asking for fit advice outside 'stretches 1 inch'.

I am surprised that the actual waist size of a pair of 32 301S meausres 32 after some period of wear, I would have r=thought it to be more like 33.  Anyway, the top block of the 301 is very boxy.  I'd be tempted to go 33 in the 666Sod.

I tried to clarify in another post that I was not talking about 301S, but another pair of non-IH jeans which are actually size 30, which is an arbitrary tag size in this sense. They measure 32' and fit well, so I guess 33 is where I should be at?

[Giles]

Sorry, I think 33 is the way to go.  G

@Increase:

Alright so after being jerked around on Selfedge with two purchases of the 301S overdye being sold out but not updated on the main site I came across these. Before I order I just wanted to ask everyone how they feel about sizing. I currently fit fairly snug in a 32 in. waist so I figured I would go for the 33 to hang them on the hips like Dior 19cm, would that work out or should I size down to 32?

I actually wear Dior 19cm (MIJ) size 28 and 666od size 30

for oiling your patches, do u guys use Obenauf's heavy duty LP or leather oil? What is the difference between the two?

[georgeel]

HD is good for protection, oil for maintenance.
Obenauf's Combo Pack contains both products.

I put Obenauf's LP on my patch early on and at least once since then, using the hair dryer technique.  It's held up pretty well (9mos).

Sometimes cracks hide, I could send some beaver lure;)

@Bigbertha,  nice fit !!

[Bigbertha]

Thought I'd throw it out there…my size 32 666Sod (32 inseam) are actually a little too snug in the thighs. I'm concerned I'll blow out crotch prematurely unless I size up. If someone has a pair in 33 and looking to size down, let me know. I'd even consider trading for a different model/cut. I've only wore these a few times and never touched water.
