Question regarding jean sizing?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

Regarding jeans, I have heard many things such as shrinking during washing, and stretching or expanding during normal wear after the wash. Now this confuses me when purchasing jeans. Do you suggest buying jeans in wear the initial fit fits just right or a bit tight to accustom for expanding, or do you recommend purchasing the jeans a bit larger to accustom for shrinking?

Are they sanforized or one washed? If so then buy what will fit or just slightly under. If they are raw they will probably shrink and inch or two in the waist and two in length but will give a little back. It also depends on the denim. Some stretches a ton from the washed sized and some don't. Also consider how you want them to fit. If you wear 34" waist and get a 33" they will be tighter/slimmer but will probably stretch out to fit well.
