Shut up ghetto booty.

He's not 6' but I think the inseam looks pretty good. There are other things but I'll let someone else handle that.

How are you able to put them on? It looks painful beyond belief both in the thighs and also **********. If you wear them everyday for a month I'm sure they'll stretch out and look "better" but 2 other things to concern yourself with:

1.) the crotch area of the jeans may blow out

2.) it's going to be damn painful but I guess that's what you have to sacrifice for slim jeans.

To be honest, these are pretty comfy, no pain at all. If anything, people have been telling me that I should've sized down.

this is how I first wore them, sagged.

It looks pretty tight on the thighs in your earlier pics. But judging from your most recent pics I'm not sure 19cm are for you or maybe you just have to size down 1-2.

you rock them better than I do at least. Strange the leg doesn't seem that tapered at all compared to mine. I look like im wearing skinny ass jeans and yours look normal. And you're 5'4"... Actually I think it may be that you're so short the stacking at the heel is creating the illusion of a fuller lower leg.

The top block is too big for short people. That can't be hemmed.

btw...i was joking about sizing down. your current pair look too tight in the thighs, although I suppose they could stretch to accomodate. i would suggest another cut, but if you like them go with it.
