      Do as Lando says, measure your fav. pair and check meas. on the website.  (tagged 32 measuring 36 is sick, and I mean really sick, who are they kiddin'?)

      I'd go with TTS. As said these will stretch, but if there isn't anything stretching them, it's minimal.

      Also measure/compare your thigh carefully, it's not just waist that matters.

      IMO sizing down ain't no good, I believe clothes/jawns aren't supposed to be stretched to fit. Can't do good for the fabric. That's just some odd phenomenon of 2K century.

        MOD, you'll be fine with the 34s. I was in a similar position, many pairs of 32s in other brands measuring anything between 34 and 36 (after stretching). I'm a TTS 34 - 35 and my size 32 634s were tight at first but now perfect after only a few days.

        There are definitely two schools of thought on this one - those who like their jeans to fit from new and those who like their jeans to stretch to their own individual shape. I'm with the latter. Denim is a woven fabric and so, by it's nature, will stretch and I'd rather they stretched to fit me than stretched to the point where they are too big. Each to his own though and I've not yet seen a pair on these forums that doesn't look very cool!

        Post pics when they arrive. You'll be very happy.

          Goldtop.  +1, in fact denim is a twill weave and thus naturally moulds to a persons shape.  It is one of the reasons that denim is such a pupular fabric

              W34 recieved today - they feel amazing, even better than i'd imagined. top button was a bit of a struggle (i 'm working on losing the paunch!) but they feel just right.
              feel like a good fit to me. i do have very short legs so they're double cuffed, i'm not that bothered but maybe get them hemmed?

              believe me i'm more chuffed than i look - it took a bit of concentration not to look too gormless.
              i'm impressed at how soft they are, that may even convince mrs.MOD that some busters are a good idea.

              i'm hooked.

                    somebody call me??? 😉

                    If you try search you'll find a good answer, but here we go again.

                    Hem them 2,5" longer than your normal hemmed lenght. That way you can wear them stacked or make a std (exactly) 2" cuff. (the extra 0,5" is for combing).

                    Or do whatever you like, their your jawns 🙂

                    There's fit pics of mine with std cuff (and Geo's I believe) amongst others…see what they look.

                              injunjack: they look great and a little bit tighter than mine. Although I like them kinda loose I will try one size down next time.

                              By the way: Here's my back (sorry for the bad pic). I like the way the back pockets get slightly worn from carrying around lotsa money  😉

                                      You need to size them so the thighs will fit.  If you have small thighs you can size down, if you have muscular thighs you can go TTS.

                                        I have small thighs, I sized down to a 32 and it worked.

                                          I think sizing down will work as well with me - recently I bought most stuff in 33" or 34", which is comfortable without looking too wide but as I have small thighs (think so, anyway), 32" should work.

                                          Thanx for the advice!

                                            after few days wearing the 634s, i decided to pick some bones out of the egg…
                                            The 21oz denim is beautiful~ so soft and still stiff. The hand pockets opening is a tad small, hopefully it stretch a bit more, i just cant get my whole hand fit into it comfortably, I have to really try to squeeze into them.

                                            I love the 634s so far, especially in winter now!
