      volcano, injunjack is right.
      do not be so obsess about the perfect waist size.
      belts exist for…
      look much more at the tigh sizing 😉
      it is the way to go.

          OT: sizing up might explain that, and I think even W38" can be slim built or is "lanky" correct expression?

          Short and sturdy folks just should admit that they are short and sturdy.  But hey, if you like what you see in the mirror, then it's all good. I guess… and again IM(H)O.

                    hmm. does anyone know how much the leg opening shrinks by post soak?
                    I think the 666OD fit is perfect, main thing thats stopping me from buying a 666s right now
                    is the wider leg opening,

                    but looking at fit pics of other users with size 33 im rather encouraged, it may not be as big as i think
                    im just used to wearing slim tapered denim such as 301s…se05bsp etc

                      I would never call these jeans "skinny" or say they are only for skinny people. All of that is relative. The only thing I can say with certainty is that the 666S fit is slimmer than the 634S cut. I would say that the 666S cut in waist size 34 and above actually gives "chunkier" guys the illusion of what the size 32 634S's look like on "skinnier" guys(which look great IMHO).

                      I'm 5'8" 225lbs and could care less whether I wear a 32 or a 36 or a M or XXXL, I don't give a fuck.
                      The 666S fit me WAY better than the 634S. I've had the 634S in size 34 and 36 and they are just not for me. I feel like once you get to size 34 waist and above pared with size 32 inseam and below, the wider/straight cuts don't do that person justice compared to a slimmer thigh to hem ratio. Maybe I got lucky with my pair of 666S after they soaked, I honestly don't know. But they are my favorite pair by far.

                      I've owned(if only for a short time) the following cuts.
                      634S sz34 and 36
                      634XHS sz34
                      666S sz36
                      666od sz36
                      9634 sz33(stretched to 36in waist) Fit amazing
                      B01SBG sz36

                      Rant over.

                      My new/raw 666S Measurements:
                      Waist: 36.2
                      Front Rise: 11in
                      Back Rise: 15in
                      Thigh: 13.1in
                      Hem: 9in
                      Inseam: 37in

                      Hot Soaked 30mins
                      Waist: 35in

                      Hem: 8.75in
                      Inseam: 36in

                      Going to get hemmed now.

                            so true,,,thats the good thing about these types of Japanese jeans,,,they can all be traded/sold/moved on a damn sight easier than mass produced shite,,,my mums words not mine,,,she hates the washed out look thats around now,,,much prefers the dark indigo of the stuff i wear,,,apart from when im sitting on her white throws on her sofa

                                Did you stretch the inseam at all while drying, to reduce shrinkage? Interested that you only lost 1 inch in the inseam, I would have expected a little more.

                                  Na, just a 30min super hot soak. Nothing else. Hung dry.

                                      Good to know. I'd like to get mine hemmed before soaking (because I like the effect), but gotta be careful about how much shrinkage occurs!

                                          hemmed at extra 1-1.5inches of your normal inseam. Sould be fine..
