Thanks Kiya! You've been super helpful! As a broke graduate student I'm going to have to lurk on the market place and ebay for my next pair, but once I get an income you've earned my business!

Hi all,

Lurker posting for the first time. I was wondering if anyone here could help me out with sizing since I don't have a measuring tape available. I do also apologise if this has been answered in the thread somewhere.

I'm looking to buy a pair of ST-100x's. I'm a size 28 in APC PS. What size would you recommend?

You'd be a 29 in the ST-100x, they'll be snug at first but will stretch out to be comfy within a week or two.

The ST fit, it comes in four types of fabric:

I know this sounds stupid but I passed on 3sixteen and had to get a pair of APC from a local store instead because I couldn't figure out the sizing. Self Edge and 3sixteen.com sizing charts don't really match blueowl's charts. So I called the Self Edge store and asked them to measure a pair of 29 ST-120X, and the half-thigh measurement (1'' below crotch) was off by a full 1'' (9.4'' instead of 10.4''). That's a huge difference in fit.
Then I emailed Jay @ blueowl and asked him to do the same, and he got 10.5'', which is actually closer to the SelfEdge chart!

Not stoopid, better safe than sorry. I have found that it is good to size down 1 on 3sixteens, but to each their own.

I bought a pair of SL-100x in 33 and a pair of ST-100x in 34 to try.

When I got the package, I pulled out a pair of ST-100x's in 33 and a SL-100x's in 34.

I was alittle suprised I couldn't even get the ST's in 33 on!

The SL's in 34 fit well for the most part but the back pockets ended about halfway between my knees and my glutes.

are the back pockets generally low on 3sixteens?

perhaps you are wearing them too low on your hip?

Yeah I wear a 34 waist in most pants and got the ST-120x in 34. They were very tight at first but now they fit perfectly. There's no way I would've been able to size down to a 33, it would've been much too tight in the thighs.

This is going to be my first pair of raw denim so I was looking for some help. I don't have any stores around me to try them on and the sizing seemed confusing to me after reading about if the jeans stretch or not etc. My measurements of my body are:
Waist = 35"
Hips = 35"
Thigh = 23.5"
Calf = 14"

My main concern is that I don't want the thighs to be really tight, but I want a more fitted look but definitely not skinny jeans. Any suggestions to styles and sizes would be great.

i'm gonna guess an SL-100X in 33 will work for you.
