I wasn’t sure which way to go either but settle on the regular fit. The hem on the regulars is around 9”and the slim is around 7.75”.

I think either would work really, but for me it came down to which ones I could wear with my boots.

@Chibs said in OrSlow:

@freepickin I have tried both. The slims are like Levi’s 501’s. The straight cut would definitely be baggier than your 634s.

@freepickin @Chibs I have both and agree with Jordan. Personally, I think the slim fit is more flattering. Though these days, everything’s big and oversized—can’t go wrong with either!

@Chibs I've been eyeing the shorts but hoping to find someplace to try it on before I commit. They look great on you! Can I also ask what chambray you're wearing?

[akohut]

anyone have any advice on new yorker pant sizing? I'm a 3 in the fatigue pants and a 33 in most iron heart jeans – trying to decide between the 3 and the 4 for the new yorkers.

[Chibs]

@FireGX thanks, it’s from Buzz Rickson.

[labrat]

@akohut definitely a 3, unless you are really tall and need the extra length

[akohut]

@labrat no im 180cm, so i think i'll be good length-wise. thanks for the advice, going to order a pair

@freepickin

I’ve had both…I’m currently wearing the regular fit(green) as the hem on the slim was too small for tall boots.

I’ve noticed some differences depending on the color of the fatigues, the green regular fit seems to be slimmer than the regular ecru. So I wear the slim fit with the ecru, regular with the green. I wear size 5 so take this with a grain of salt as there may be larger differences in the bigger sizes???

Either way you can’t go wrong but personally I don’t like too baggy of a fit.

@akohut Good call—everything from Orslow is top-notch. I own a few pairs of their New Yorker shorts and pants, and I love them all. Perfect for summer with their relaxed fit and durable ripstop fabric.

Out of curiosity what color did you go with?

@Chibs are the shorts the same waist measurement as the pants? Like for like?

I just measured and compared both of them. So they’re the exact same size. The shorts are basically the slim fit fatigue pants without legs.

@Chibs thanks so much checking for me, much appreciated!

Love this brand, thanks @chibs for the enlightenment

[SKT]

@Brandrea pants look great man. Also wondering how you’re liking the madras?

[Brandrea]

@SKT Thank you, really love the fabric and how they wear!

The Madras is just fantastic, very nice on these hot humid days. I went with my typical XXL size, but could’ve gone down one if I’m honest … I always err on the side of larger is better (for me).

[SKT]

@Brandrea I think you’ll be happier in the long run with that shirt size. I wish I had sized up a few times in the past. Looks great and now you guys have me searching for some fatigue pants!

[Brandrea]

@SKT thanks man, it’s a summer shirt so I’d rather it be a touch large as opposed to too tight.

If you decide to go OrSlow you won’t regret it. Withered and Fig have a great selection of colors in regular and slim fit.

Thanks @Brandrea @Chibs for the recommendation. My black and brown fatigues came this week and couldn’t be happier.

@stitchdown-shell great work, I have an olive pair. Seeing the selection that Withered Fig have makes me want one of each colour.

Until I move house I don't have the wardrobe space, which may be a blessing in disguise
