So I just snagged a black waxed stadium jacket, and it fits like a glove, but the cuffs are crazy tight. Anyone else with this issue...should I size up or will they stretch?


Having the same issue. Did yours stretch at all or did you end up sizing up?

I've heard that a few customers have put bottles/cans in the cuffs overnight to stretch them out until they're broken in. If the jacket fits well in all other areas, that might be a good method so that you don't have to size up and sacrifice the otherwise good fit.

Just did a thread search and didn't find anything super recent -- Bought a pair of SL-100Xs last week and only have like 5 wears into them. They fit great from the thigh down and the waist is great. My only concern is the seat. Can I count on 0.5-1" of stretch? They are certainly wearable now and don't feel all that constricting, but the slimmer seat does result in a considerable amount of pull at the front (not moose knuckle territory, but close -- I'm sure it will result in sick caulk fades). Looking for any insight. Thanks, doods.

Try opening the seam up a little by unbuttoning your fly.

A very San Franciscan solution indeed.

They've actually ended up stretching a decent amount. I was concerned that they were gonna stay completely rigid. Hopefully they will be perfect after another handful of wears.

This ^, my main problem with 3sixteens - they have no space **********.

Thats why i love my RT's. (Do still own 3 pairs of 3Six's, just wear them less now)
