Any chance you bought OD 18oz? Those will be smaller bc of the shrinkage from the OD

Am I understanding correctly that you sized up to 34 in the 18oz? That would explain part of why the whole jean is roomier. Even though the measurements may look the same on the site, these are usually published after measuring one or two pairs. My guess is your 14oz 32s were on the smaller side, and the 34s in 18oz were on the larger side.
Also, ymmv but I’ve never found self edge’s measurements to be very reliable.

Excited about this pickup. Tried them on in Portland a few months ago and have thought about them ever since. Jumped on the SE sale this week, wasn’t able to get exact measurements but it seems like it worked out. First ever pair of IH denim, after many tops. Very excited about this 21oz.

Great fit on those!

@sabergirl That’s correct. Yeah, seems to be the case.

@Anesthetist thanks man! Those are looking unreal.

@Plant-Life i don’t know if things have changed but it used to be the case that no other retailer in the world was as precise or as organised as IHUK with regards to measurements. While SE is a great store they did not have a great rep regarding that aspect of things.
Also @sabergirl is bang on. Measurements can never tell the whole story. Even one differing measurement is going to skew all the others as you need to take account for what happens between the points measured. The different tag size combined with the points I mentioned is going to give you a different fit, no doubt.

I reworded this to make it in present tense, because I think that it holds true today.
