Thanks for the sizing insights!  After too much analysis paralysis I decided to just order the size 30.  I can’t wait to receive them!

Hello, while waiting for the 555 version to restock I’ve recently come to the conclusion that I’m in love with high rise cuts after buying a pair of Oni Secret denim in the 926 cut size 29.  Waist on the Oni’s are 29.5 and thighs are 11.4.  I feel with more wear the waist will stretch out to at least 30 as the denim feels like it has a lot of give in it.

I want to size down to a 29 for the IH 888 Bc I feel like the measured 30s in stock will eventually stretch out too much and I’m trying to keep the thigh and knee as tight as possible if my waist can handle it.  You guys think post initial wash that I can get the 28.9 to 30? Or should I buy the 30s and  try to shrink it as much possible so post wash and stretch they won’t go over 31?

Thanks

Thanks for the info guys!  I did some pretty heavy research into the 777’s but I’m missing a pair of nice slim straight jeans In my collection.  Also, a mid/high rise sounds very appealing to me right now.

Sizing and stretch question

I normally wear a tagged size 29-30 in Oni and PBJ’s slimmest cut.  I have an actual 32 waist.  All my jeans when measured using the  IH method measure approx 31-32.  I like my jeans on the slim side and I’m super picky about how rear pocket spacing looks like when the seat is too wide.

So, do you think I should go for a 30 or 29 in this cut?  After reading this whole thread I’m leaning towards the 30 but I’m so used to picking jeans with a 29 measured waist (measured by blue&green, Denimio, self edge) that I’m afraid to pull the trigger.  I’m fine thigh-size in either side but don’t want the droopy bum effect once fully stretched out.  Tia
