      @Chris:

      Denim will almost always stretch back to original dimensions, given some time and pressure.  I'd lean toward the 32, all other factors being comparable.

      True… It’s just that, while half an inch or so is neither here nor there, if they start off at 32” and shrink by 1”+ to south of 31, it might be impossible to get them on to start the stretching process.

      @Niro was it so that you are another true 32.5”-waister, who also happened to own these jeans in their 24 Oz. incarnation? How did you size? If it wasn’t you then I apologize for the unnecessary holla, I’ve been doing lots of forum-reading and might have got some usernames mixed up.

        I was a 32.5" waister, but do not own the 24oz 710 (i've got the 18oz 710bkb)

        and no worries on the tag. I agree with spitfiredealer. You would probably get more help on sufu. Don't be shy  😉

                      I just pre-ordered a pair of the 25oz straight 20th anniversary jeans from Denimio. Here: https://www.denimio.com/s510og25oz-20th-25oz-20th-anniversary-limited-model-regular-straight.html#

                      Here's a discount code they gave me if you would like to do the same and save a little~~:  REWARD-8055-KOQV7-ANEA~~

                      Code doesn't work.

                        @Filthy 21/23oz junkie that code didn't work for me, but thanks anyway.

                        I bought the S710XX16oz-18 20th anniversary pair from okayamadenim instead  🙂

                            Great fit. Extra credit points for being punk rock and wearing them with Creepers.

                            When I was a Little street punk I wore the shit out of some creepers.

                              @match Looks great indeed! I'm looking at these at the moment, but I'm a bit puzzled. What does "unsanforized one wash" actually mean?

                                A pair of jeans made of unsanforized denim which was washed once to get the shrinkage out of the fabric.

                                  The master  beautiful_FrEaK explained already. In fact, SAMURAI I don't remember Sanforized denim. And just a few in the OW (one wаshed). Usually, pre-shrinkage is done to reduce the risk of the buyer. The basic parameters practically do not move at washing. Sometimes the shrinkage is very tough. So I bought PBJ XX-009 in which Insеаm reduced to 85 cm, and the belt-up to 78 cm. And it's in w31. These pants were seated delicately. I moved inseam another 3 cm, wetting them in very hot water. Up to 93 cm.

                                    I see that Okayama Denim and Denimio have these in stock - do you find their size charts to be accurate?

                                      Nope! In my experience okayama denim have the more accurate size charts, but even then it's usually not accurate.

                                      I usually email denimio to ask them to measure an actual pair. Their staff are very polite and helpful

                                          At Denimio happen flaws, but in my case own measurements almost coincided with the table of the site. However, I bought them by pre-order, almost at random. The error is very small.

                                            Thanks @match that's very kind of you! Measurements look promising. I wonder only how much shrinkage is left, but I guess I won't know it if I won't try.
