I've done a few searches in these forums using the keywords "slim fit", "pants", "chino" and have yielded lots but mostly irrelevant results. Thus, here I am in need of some answers and advice.

I'm looking for slim-fit, slightly tapered pants/trousers/chino/cargo pants with a long-ish inseam and small-ish leg opening . Specifically, an inseam of 32"-33" inches to 36" and a leg opening of between a 8" to 14".

I know that H&M and Engineered Garments carry such pants, but I'd like to know if there are any other brands that has such specifications.

Just for reference, I normally wear a size 33 Self Edge X Iron Heart denim:
Waist: 31.8", Thigh: 11.2", and Leg-Opening: 8"

Thanks all.

What's the word on Tretorn Strand sizing? Also, just a heads up, these are on sale on the Tretorn website for $53.00 (with or without shrimp or beets printed on them) as well as a bunch of other sneakers. Pretty good deal, I think.

I have some button-up shirts, some jackets, and some hoodies that I want to shrink. If the tag on them says "wash cold" or "tumble dry low" or "do not tumble dry," are these rigid guidelines that I have to follow?

What I want to know is: can I give clothes with these tags a hot wash/hot dry if I want them to shrink?

Thanks in advance for any input!!

Question here!

Will the width of a shoe/boot have any effect on the overall length of the shoe? I recently purchased two pairs of boots (same brand) but the narrower boot (C) is notably shorter than the other (D).

Does anyone know what glasses James Dean is wearing in this photograph?

^ Looks like a classic Wayfarer. Word.

I was thinking the same thing at first, but the frame doesn't look as thick as wayfarers.

Aren't they part of the new BoO x Sperry thing? Probably won't be on their website.

Barney's has some models, but not in that particular color pattern: http://www.barneys.com/b/browse/cate...egoryId=882252

Looking to add a jean with a taper to my rotation - any thoughts on the Iron Heart for Self Edge Cyclists (http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.p...roducts_id=245) or the Samurai S710XX (http://blueingreensoho.com/site/inde...mart&Itemid=28). Samurais are 19oz and Ironhearts are 21 oz.

How about these Imperials:

It seems like you want some really heavy denim but with summer coming up I'd recommend something a little lighter. Those Imperials still look very nice if you've got a slim figure. If you are a little heaver you'll probably want something with a bit more room.
