NMWA. Are the unbranded (don’t see a maker) easy pants in early access strictly dry clean only? If so I’d assume it has something to do with how the waist band is constructed? Does this style work with tucked in shirts? I currently only wear more casual easy pants (typically untucked shirts) but I really like this style and want to see how they would fit in my wardrobe.
Thanks!
They do have interlining in the waistband but since the waistband is fully drawstring, I'm not sure that a gentle cold wash would do much damage. I do think it works well with a tucked shirt but it is a drawstring trouser with a visible drawstring. It's not a style of easy pant where the drawstring or elastic are hidden or stealthy. The styles is very much defined by that drawstring waistband IMO and that's what makes them so attractive.

Thanks that was it. I was using the app to browse the website has the brand and the size chart. Now that I see the measurements the rise looks a little low for my liking.
Periodical reminder that rise is always measured below the waistband, just in case.

Yes we received two styles of easy pants and they'll hopefully be up next week.

Quick question on the DBF linen tees, do those shrink, esp in length, after a wash? It’s what I’m looking for but a little long…
From personal experience, they do shrink, but not much. Not like a full size or anything

I have two from previous seasons, one direct from DBF and one from SSENSE. The one I bought direct shrunk a touch in length only, the other one pretty much was unchanged. Laundered cold in mesh bag on delicate, air dried. The latter looks better tucked as a result IMO.

Also someone could have told me that I rolled my left cuff once more than my right cuff. I don’t want to be starting a trend or something

XOP stuff is awesome. Wish I had bought the other set. Measurements look trim, but shirt is really comfortable and sculptural. The shorts are really slim IMO. These fit nicely but I could go up a size (if such a size existed). This set is very, very fine - fit, fabric, and finish.

And the Sublime hat may be my favorite thing I’ve purchased in a while. So much fun, and something I’m sure I’ll grab all summer.
