        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
                    Front Rise: 10.5in
                    Back Rise: 14.5in
                    Thigh: 13in
                    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.

                                    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!

                                          I am not sure about them cause they are really tight in thighs.

                                            I think they look good but fit is of course a personal thing.  If you don't feel comfortable in them then that's what matters.  However, if they are new, they are going to stretch and settle.  Mine certainly did - on one leg they were pinching my thigh at first but after a couple of weeks that went away and they are completely comfortable now.
