      how much stretch are in these? I recall a lot but can't find for sure?

      Looks like an inch each way looking at the sizing and comments in the purple variants chat.

      Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.

          @ShopatIronHeart not sure what size my purple were as the sizing has faded off but are these measured with the waistband loose, not pulled tight?

              @ShopatIronHeart is the thigh measurement to the index finger or the middle (which is where it goes when they are laid flat) please?

                  @Alex yes but when laid flat it goes to the middle finger and the measurements don’t compare to the size chart. When I measure from the seam it does compare including the waist. This is on my pair from the last run. Sorry photo didn’t load

                    I see what you mean here!

                    The thigh is measured from just below the seam from where the fabric starts. It's best to make sure the thigh you are measuring is completely flat.

                    It helps to pull the other leg up slightly so you can get full access to the flat side but this isn't vital to get an accurate measurement.

                    I've added a photo to illustrate the best position to measure the shorts and hope this helps!

                      @Tyler thanks Tyler. It looks like the new shorts are slightly smaller in the thigh compared to my medium from the last run?

                          @Gavin666 Once that's pulled taught (measuring tape) 12.5 approx - looks to be pretty on size I think so would be similar to what we've measured as a size Medium 🙂

                              @Alex no shrinkage ;-). tight tape measure and they are 12.9”. Have a bit of room in thigh to spare so these should be bang on. Shame they weren’t here a week early!

                                I suppose because the waist does stretch I could pull these off in XL? I wear 38 in both the duck and denim double fronts with a belt.

                                  @Northman I doubt you can get 4" of stretch out of these. this run comes in significantly smaller than the previous one. I compared with the old measurements over in the purple thread.

                                    @tody Okay thanks. If the stockist list is up to date I might be able to try them on before buying so will probably do that. The other measurements look fine but not worth the risk ordering I guess. My waist could squeeze into 36s in the denim double fronts but sitting down they were too tight. I wear 38-40 usually in jeans, but It is mainly to do with the fact that I have thicc thighs and glutes from lifting.

                                      The stockist list is NOT up to date.

                                      We do not update the stockist list on restocks.

                                        @Northman your best bet is to contact your closest retailer directly. They will be able to tell you if they are getting the restock
