Waht jeans do you usually buy? Most jeans I find hug my thighs and are tight. On top of that, ****** bulges out. Not cool! I recently purchased a pair of PDC in 31. They fit fine in the waist but are tight as hell in the thighs. Would Nudie Selvage Regular Ralf fit better? I also have a pair of true religions - again I have the same problem with them.

On another note, what brand of dress pants make roomier thighs? My thighs weren't this big before and express dress pants used to fit me fine. Now those are real tight around the thighs.

Ralfs aren't as roomy as some people seem to think, hence my ommision of them. My legs are only 21.75 and my 30" Ralfs were tight at first, but loosened up ok. They're still fairly slim through the thigh area and after their first wash they shrunk back a bit, but quickly loosened up. With only a 6 or 7" difference between your waist and legs, you're going to find all jeans a big challenge.

I tried on a pair of Nudie RR slevage today in 32x33 and they were fairly slim over the thigh area. I am hesitant to pull the trigger as a wash may shrink the jeans.

Where can I go in person to try on APC rescues? I am in nY/NJ area. Do stores like C21 or Filenes carry APC?

On another note, what dress pants do you guys opt for? Most of my dress pants fit tight over the thighs.

I recommend Nudie Straight Svens. They are a lot roomier than RR while still looking slim. Edwin Nashvilles also look modern and slim with roomy thighs.

Straight svens are slimmer than ralfs

dude don't give him bad information, i believe from the fit guide on nudie.com that regular ralf is now the leading biggest jean they offer and they are tight on me, stylin-1 and the op...

31/32 are the same exact measurements from what i read on contextclothing.com, he would need a 33 waist for thigh improvement, but then im sure the waist wouldn't fit to the op

The default "big thigh" jeans are:

Kicking Mule 1950
APC Rescue
Most repro jeans

I have Svens and Ralfs. the Ralfs are definately tighter in the thighs.
