If you need a belt at 36, go for a36

@seanocono:

I'll let other members that own a pair of 705s weigh in on the fit, but I just wanted to say: Welcome, sabergirl! Glad to have you on the forum.

Cheers, thanks!!

girly ponyboys doesn't count

My recommendation is to size down one in these. Personally, I'd size down 2. This fabric stretches a decent amount.

[joesaintjohn]

I should size down in mine, eventually.

^i'd vote for a "yes!"…38 should be doable for you and knowing that you're still going to drop more and more weight, wth not

[trail and arrow]

if i understand i right,
the general canon is to size down with the 705?
THANKS

[D97x7]

I did and I'm very happy with the result!

[trail and arrow]

thanks man,
was thinking about the last 38,
but i would have to gain a lot wait to fill them.

if anyone wants to get rid of a green 36, please pm me!
cheers

I couldn't resist the sale and (contrary to everyone's advice) jumped on that 38, myself.  I measured a pair of old baggy cargos that I still like to wear, and all the measurements are similar.  Hopefully I'm not totally crazy!  I'll post pics when they get here.

l am looking forward to that!

No chance, sorry…...We actually (and rather surprisingly professional of us) did a stock take before we started the sale...

[sabergirl]

UPS came and caught me asleep, with no money in my wallet to pay the (surprise!) import fees.  Laaaaaame.  Anyway, I'm stoked on the fast shipping from IHUK, and the UPS guy said he would come back later.  Now the wait is even MORE unbearable after having seen the package!

[Giles]

Sorry sabregirl, we do our best to get under the "radar", and usually we succeed…..

[sabergirl]

Hey, no worries.  I've found that Mexican customs are all over the map with what they decide to charge for, and when.  Just lucky to have snagged these during the amazing sale!  Thank you.

I also think UPS is getting more rigorous about hitting customers with fees lately.  Corporate profits must be down this quarter.

[Giles]

Hmmmmm, interesting, we have not noticed that…..

true…30CHF fees for me and after having 3 invoices in the mail, since they always try to reach me while i'm away at work, i've finally changed the delivery address to the work address and so i should receive the famous blue bag by tomorrow, friday...instead of tuesday -.-

[Giles]

Not true.  Getting anything into Switzerland without charges is almost impossible and always has been.  Most of the customs staff are customers of VMC, they know what the stuff is and what it costs.  Hiding is virtually impossible…
