What size Gorecki and Double Knees are recommended for a typical size 34-35 (EU 50-52) waist? That is, for the intended designer approved fit.
Here’s my experience, I sized up to a L on the Goreckis (Typically a M) but I feel like I could’ve easily gone with a XL or XXL.
The seat is still surprisingly snug in the L..Maybe a little too many squats.

I think you’ll be fine sizing up 2 from normal alpha. And this is coming from the same person who walked around in size S Goreckis last year.

I'm a typical 35-36 (eu 52) and I have XL Gorecki's and they're very baggy, in a good way. But I'm sure I could also wear a L. You guys talking about them being snug, I very much don't relate. I don't think a M would be snug on me. But I have skinny legs and no ass. I think I could wear anything from a M to an XXL and pull them off.

Size down if you grab some

FWIW, I've been wearing them all summer and am glad I did not size down. They are meant to be really easy to slip on and off. When you first put them on, they will feel big, but that's part of the intended fit. If you're a true half size though, then yeah go down to nearest size.

In the same boat. I am a 34-35 and the xl goreckis fit well. I imagine Antonio might say xxl for this size. My issue is that even though I like to wear my pants baggy, sizing up too much makes the seat too big and they sag in an unflattering way.

Any update on when stuff from last drop will ship?
I don’t want to sound like that guy, but 18E is basically Antonio at this point. I mean, dude drops stuff off for us himself. And TBH none of us need something right now. Let’s be the ones that make my man feel good about what he’s doing, knowing he’s hustling for our jawnz, and be pleasantly surprised when they come.

I thought they were shipping out of studio now? But yeah this was a big drop (with another big drop incoming), not to mention all the work that came with the pre-ordered hats and BLM tees. Especially with the shipping situation with COVID and all, we should all be patient.

interesting yeah it sounds like we have a similar waist size but my voluminous gluteus maximus necessitates a much roomier seat
