@specmvl:

But maybe a lot of the big players do 'vanity sizing'  - what are your experiences with that?

I'm pretty sure all the mainstream brands do it to some extent or another.  Based on your measurements, I'd agree with IJ and recommend a 34.  Seul's right, too.  They'll be snug for a while.

@Chipper:

Hello all,

I'm about to order a pair but would like a little advice on sizing.

I normally wear 34 levis that are a little on the tight side when new but stretch perfectly. Have just measured a couple of pairs and they are coming out at 36 inches to 36.25 inches. I don't like jeans loose so should I be ordering 34 or 36?

I don't want to have to turn them up. Any off the shelf jeans with 32inch leg fit perfectly so what length should I have them tailored too?

Would appreciate some advice

@Giles:

Go for a 34, we'll look for the largest we have here before shipping.  They'll be tight for a while, but you will eventually force them into submission.  Go for 32.5 inseam…...

Just found this conversation between Chipper and Giles in the older parts of the thread. Sounds comparable to my situation. That leaves me between 34 and 33.
I just wonder if all the other guys looking for their first pair of IH´s and referring to their usual size were talking about a number on the patch or actual measurements…

specmvl ve pm'd you!

[injunjack]

actual measurements of best fitting jeans is the key. Forget the tag size.

They look fantastic!

very nice SharkSkin-Man

[SharkSkin-Man]

Thanks, guys.

The cuffs and ankles are looking a bit sorry for themselves and the crotch hasn't got much more to give, so they'll be retired sooner rather than later I would think.

very nice Mr SharkSkin. They look so good, man I want my pair look like that too

[SharkSkin-Man]

Wear them all the time, disregard your personal hygiene and good things will happen to your jeans.

Great job Siri,  it seams of all the ih jeans these seam to fit and look best in the top block.  Only thing is I don't like how big the hem is otherwise I would be all over them.
