Really,really want a pair of those jeans. Have to see how things go the next couple of weeks. Maybe i can swing it.–Jett

My thighs are too big for these  Damn you cycling

First fitpics, shot clandestinely at work so not perfect.  Amazing fast turnaround (cheers Matt).  Love the denim, and the thighs work fine for me.  The only concern is the waist, they did up a little too easily (not the button, that was a bitch to do up), so slightly concerned they will stretch out and be too big.  Not sure I could drop a size in the thighs.  Will try on properly when I get home and decide

That looks like a good fit to me @Tidal but I understand your concern re. the waist.

Just wear a belt

If a jeans is too tight you can't wear they without discomfort..
But you can always wear it with a belt if they area a bit loose.

Or you could let em sag. Just providing options.

[Anesthetist]

Yup, a good belt will make em work. They look really good too [emoji106]

@Giles These have been an very much enjoyed addition to the wardrobe.  The waist has stretched out quite a bit tho.  I don't particularly want to wash them but would like the waist and thighs to shrink back up.  Any thoughts or suggestions?  Will they loose much color - bleed or anything??? thank you sir

[Giles]

You'll lose some colour with many washes over time…..

@Giles  ok cool.. as for "shrinking" them intentionally..? to tighten up the waist and thighs .. what would you do? tempurature wise?  and hand wash or in the washing machine?  Much thanks!

They're sanforized and overdyed.  I seriously doubt there's any shrinkage to be had at this point.

They have stretched an inch since I bought them six months ago…. you don't think they'll shrink with a wash? I am talking about shrinking 'back' to what they were new, not shrinking them beyond the waist measure when purchased.

[spitfiredealer]

they will shrink back but will again stretch back

It'll take about one day's wear as well.

Wear a belt. The waist can only stretch as much as the belt allows.
