Do you mean a wash should shrink them? I keep thinking I'm overanalyzing the size, then I put them on and have to pull them up to my belly button for them to look like they fit in the top block. I can pull mine down over my hips with a little wiggling. I went ahead and ordered a 31 to try out - I'll just return the one that doesn't fit. It's very odd because the waist is the exact same size as my 60/30 Loosies (size 32 also), but its like the top block on the SDs is so baggy in the front and rear, but not the sides. I think the gusset is the blame pushing fabric up and out in the front and rear. They are very comfortable though - if I keep the 32's, they won't be slim dungs for me, they'll be anti-fit dungs.
I'm 5'10 165-170 too for what it's worth.
I just got a pair of the Outlier SD and feel pretty much the same way as Velobran- perhaps I should have gone for a 31 instead of my usual 32. I haven't washed them yet, so not sure if that'll make a difference. They fit very well everywhere else (I'm 6'2" 165lbs) so I don't want to size down and mess up another area.
I have worn them for 2 straight days and they are very comfortable, close to a pair of TAD pants that are my favorites. Based on web reviews, a few more days of wear and perhaps a wash should help.
