      I couldn't do the top button on my first pair either, but they stretched a good inch, and now are super comfy….. they're now also significantly shorter as I had them chopped last summer 🙂

        The guys are right, the waist stretches a bit. That, and the buttonholes get more easy to button up.

        But if it really bothers you and the tags are still on it, you can always return them and  get one size bigger, with the risk of a baggier fit ofcourse.

          Hey folks! Sorry for another sizing question, but I've read through the thread and my situation's different from most. I measure a 37" waist at jean height, but I've also got pretty beefy thighs from cycling/martial arts, about 25" around. My question is, will a size 36 fit a 37" waist with enough room in the thigh/crotch area? Would a size 38 be too loose? I know they stretch nicely, just curious if anyone out there has a similar build.

          Thanks!

            As you have surely read the whole thread etc…
            Measure your best fitting pair like IHUK does. Compare measurements.
            Then you know....That is actually the best way to determine sizing without actually trying them on.

            Do not care what your actual/physical waist measures.

              IronStomach, as one fellow cycles to another, I feel the beefy thigh pain.

              A pair of Sz 36 based on your measurements will give you a fitted look. Your thighs will fit, with about 2" to spare. Maybe a bit of buttoning up pain to begin with. They will stretch 1-2" easy over time (a month of 'work').
              A pair of Sz 38 will fit straight away and will end up an inch or 2 wider in the waist. This would be a relaxed fit, at best.

              In your position, I'd like go the Sz36's and work through the 1st month and have a really nice pair of fitted, but not tight, jeans. YMMV.

                  IS, I used to have nearly the exact same measurements. I went with a 38, and it was a mistake. Go with the 36. It may be slightly uncomfortable for a couple weeks, but the end result will be a perfect fit.

                        Hello, I'm looking at buying 634S very shortly but I'm not sure on the length.  The jeans that I'm currently wearing are at 34". There is some stacking on the front but maybe one crease on the heel. Should i just order them with the 35" and see how they are.  I don't want them to be long to where I'm stepping on them when I'm not wearing shoes.

                        Thanks for your help everyone.

                              I'd say to hem 1-1.5 inches off of them.  I'm the same height, and I chose to leave the original length on mine.  They've gotten sort of chewed up in the back because they drag.

                                Thanks Chris,  the 34" i have now don't drag but i measured a different pair and those are 35" and those drag alittle bit and go under my foot.

                                Whats your inseam?

                                  About the same- usually around 33-34".  Back when I bought mine, Giles didn't offer hemming, so I just left them full length, rather than sending them off to someone else to do the work.  I won't do that any more- I like to make Giles work extra for my cash.

                                    That works for both us then…..

                                    Personally I would go 35, because of the combing.

                                      but are you saying that so you don't have to work.  😉

                                        I just wanted to say that, after lurking here for awhile and reading all about sizing and whatnot, I pulled the trigger and bought a pair of 634s' from Self Edge's online shop.  They arrived today and I put 'em on about two hours ago.  I don't want to put on a different pair of jeans or pants ever again.

                                        Great fit.  These things are incredible.
