      Best answer is to measure your best fitting pair like IH does, and compare the measurements.

        Get the 32, not the 31… I tried to do that with my 634s. They fit okay now but only after I lost 10 lbs.

          Yeah, the discussion above is slightly confusing as Hectic agrees with Giles but actually suggests something different! If you want BB that will stretch out to a 32" waist, buy the tagged 32 which measure 31" in the waist when new.

              My general point is that the 21oz is very amenable to some stretch.

                Well, I chickened out and ordered a size 32 on sunday. I got my Beatle Busters yesterday and I'm quite happy. The jeans fit very comfortably, but they should probably have been a size 31 for that perfect fit when they stretch out. The fabric is not so stiff as I expected, being new to 21 oz and all, and that is a bonus. I also like the feel and texture of the denim. Another plus is that the pants are really warm here in Oslo where it is minus 10 degrees c.

                The service from Iron Heart was quick

                Yeah, I know the picture quality is craptacular. If you don't like it you can bite my shiny metal ass! Anyways, the other jeans in the pictures are my 3sixteens SL-100. They are about to get their first wash after six months and moved to general rotation.

                  Honestly, that's a really good fit. I also bought Busters in a tagged 32 and although the waist was a little too big, the fit elsewhere was exactly what I wanted. Better than to have a larger waist than spray-on thighs in my opinion. If you wear a belt, it's not like the waist will stretch an enormous amount and it will tighten up again with a wash.

                          That quote is from the episode "That's lobstertainment" right? Bought the t-shirt in a shop in Reykjavik, Iceland. I'm such a Futurama nerd.

                                    I'm still to buy a pair of Iron Heart jeans , I've tried to measure what I wear and like to get to the pair right for me , and I think these may be the ones ..
                                    I like a tapered look , think I may need a 40 going off the measurements , the hunt continues ..

                                    You only live once , if done properly then once is enough
