Hi Folks, I'm looking to get my first pair in the next week or so and have decided on the 634s (I think), but just wanted to get some advice on sizing, most of my jeans are 36/38 waist, so just wanted to know if people size down on these or buy spot on.  I'm guessing there is no shrinkage but they do stretch up and inch or so….?

Any input appreciated. Thanks

Go for a 36 if you are at the upper end of the 36/38 scale. If you are the lower end of 36 then you could consider sizing down to 34.

[hectic]

I.e.: You will definitely see stretch.

[Pulpdiction]

Definately the upper, any idea how much stretch I can expect and fi they are spot on for size, or if they are bigger than 36 as standard.

Standard advice:
Take your favorite fitting pair of jeans, measure according to the methods shown on the "How We Measure" thread, check the sizing numbers for both the 36 and 38 and purchase accordingly.  Keep in mind that the 21oz denim does stretch, so with some wear, they will loosen up a bit.

Hi, yeah done that and came up with between 36 and 38, hence the question.

36 will probs work for you after some stretching…

Hey, I measure the same as you, I have the 634's in a 36 and Raw Busters in a 38. The 36 definitely fit better in a traditional sense, but I dig the slight sag on the Busters. In other words, go for a 36.

thanks guys, just wanted to get some confidence before ordering.

Sorry, I got the wrong impression from your posts.  Like Seul and Megatron said, go with the 36, you should have enough stretch from them to fit really well.

[hectic]

36 dude, should be fine. Don't shit yourself if they are tight in the waist when they arrive, they will be fine (unless they are crazy tight). However, if they are very tight in the thigh come back here and post for more advice (while the jeans are still returnable for a larger size).

To me, the combs always look worse after wash, every thing else looks better
