hi i play soccer and work out so i have some pretty big thighs.
So my question would be if 7 for all man kind and diesel jeans cant fit my legs what are my other choices... I know this is blasphemy on the board but it seems that the ezra brand of abercrombie and fitch are the only decent jeans that fit me.... I was especially upset about the 7 for all man kind jeans because the material is so good... please some recommendations would be nice... I put on a pair of 40 waist jeans in seven for all man kind and the legs fit but i usually wear a 34 to be a little comforable.... I spend all day trying on all the different kinds of styles and cuts and nothing fit... i like it be a little baggy in the legs not really tight. but not rapper baggy. so anyway i didn't end up getting anything so i would appreciate some help...

So how about you take out a tape measure, measure around your thighs. And then give us some waist and inseam measurements? That should provide a good starting point for others to give you suggestions.

Now, if you'll excuse me...

Any Levi's '47 style (LVC '47, Cane '47, any other of a thousand copies) will be a loose straight fit, if that's what you want. In terms of bootfits there's equal selection. What are you looking for?

BTW, a soccer player on SuFu had something good to say about Samurai S5000s. The unfortunate thing is they're hard to try on unless you live in NY or SF

Did you try the Seven relaxed fit or the standard? The relaxed should still fit you unless you're Ronnie Coleman

PC Rescues should do the trick. If you're a 34 waist, you can either get it in 32 or 33. 32 for them to be straight, 33 for them to be baggy. I'm only saying size down 1-2 because a 32waist rescue will measure about a 34 because of bad vanity sizing. If you want them baggy go with 33, if you want them pretty much straight, go with 32. I've never seen rescues anything but large so they should be ok for working out. You can email www.thedenimbar.net for thigh measurements for 32 and 33 rescues to make sure.

John Galliano. He works out three hours a day and his jeans are phenomenal. I bought a pair at his flagship boutique in Paris last year.

Gap Gough could work, if they're still around.

We really need to know what size those massive thighs are to give you a good selection. This thread reccomends 5ep - they do have a bigger thigh than most brands.. Samurai's are super nice, but I've never tried them on. Have you thought of Earnest sewn?

I had around 26.5in thighs when I played and trained all year long. After an injury I'm down to maybe 24. I wear Samurai jeans without any problems, I have the s0500xx (competition jeans) and s5000 and I have a 32 waist. Unless you're Roberto Carlos I don't think you should have much problem finding well fitting jeans.

Isn't drizzt a pretty big guy who also works out? He has an interesting jeans collection and might just be the person to ask.

I'm pretty sure the OP is kinda full of it, if you read the post, but yeah, I have reasonably big thighs and work out, and can wear most of the jeans that people here like (with the exception of the really slim stuff like Grifters, Slim Jims, Thin Finns, etc...)
