Could somebody who wears around a size 30 in the 5010's post a side fit pic for me (similar to the one above)? I know that's an odd request, but since I have no chance of trying these on before buying, I want to be sure about the fit.

wish it's that simple. ppl are built differently. best route is to check & compare measurements to yours. but, if it's to any consolation, sizing on this particular cut/model is 1 of the easisest to figure out, if you like the look & fit. the top block is quite protean and pliable once the fabric softens up. some [on the waif side] even dare to size down beyond 1.

I have a 30 that has three days of wear. Top block is exceptionally snug, but I'm already seeing it loosen. Waist is true to measured size as stated on websites.
I'll try and get a picture today if I can.

The build of the person hardly matters as far as the side profile of the leg from the knee down is concerned. That's the reason for my request; I'm aware of the differences in builds. Also, kiya (along with many others) has consistently suggested that people order TTS, while some people suggest sizing down. I wouldn't say that's one of the easiest sizing issues to sort out.

Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. Do you normally wear a 30, or did you size down?

now this is going to be beating a dead horse... but are these sized what they are actually tagged...f or example i wear
36 in nudie AJDH
35 in apc
34 in jean shop classic
would I really need a 38 in these or would it be more like a 36?... my average jean size
I just ask becasue it seems very few jeans actually run what they are really tagged.

those are "vanity" sized. most raw *** jeans are [sized] shrink to tagged or shrink from tagged.

stretches back out to raw measurement on waist... even beyond is a possibility once they're more pliable from wear. edit: if you're able to button up a tagged W36 [w/c are 37.5" raw] , then you're good.
