WTB: Distressed Bootcut Jeans ~32x34

Looking for some bootcut jeans, preferably with distressing. I'm a true 32x33, so I may need to size down a little, especially for used jeans. Want to wear them with western stuff so a little ass-hugging might be in order.

Your best bet for this look is the Diesel "Fanker." You can usually find them on Ebay for decent prices, as these are obviously not trendy right now.

if you want highter quality, as in a jean you can keep around, i'd say look for diesel "zathan". fanker is long discontinued and can be hard to find. plus the washes tend to REALLY date the jeans, where zathan is still produced in a couple washes a year. i have some zathans in 32x32(and 34) i'd be willing to part with, but you may be a 30 in diesel. for size reference, what sizes do you wear in some other jeans ?

I wear a 31 waist in Banana Republic trousers and I have a 32 in Earnest Sewn Fultons which are maybe a tad bit big.

you would be a 30 or 31 in diesel zathans then, depending on the wash. honestforum.com is a good place for more info and buying them. yoox has a bunch too.

The problem I have with waist sizes smaller than 32, is the inseams i s never long enough. I need that 34 inseam. Looking on ebay now.

these look good but a little pricey for something I'm not going to wear seriously.

check nordstrom rack, if you have one nearby, they may have some nice Rock and Republics available. Some of their washes I really like, and the fit is pretty good.

then you may want to look for the washes that run tight in a w32 like:

89z, 70L, 71L, 60F (sometimes)

and stay away from the washes that run big or stretch a ton like:

710, 772, 8at

and beware of the fakes that are ALL OVER ebay.


personally, i don't like Rock & Republic because they have really shitty denim, terrible quality construction (which they acknowledge by having an oft-used replacement policy), and the big 'R' on the back is too feminine. but that's just me.

you could always go cheap and get some levi's 527. some of the washes aren't half bad for $35 jeans.
