Jeans Waist Size Question

[ap3265]

I have a pair of Nudie Jeans that fit perfectly around my waist after I wash them, but after wearing them a couple times the waist size gets too loose and then they don't fit correctly. I am guessing the jeans shrink a little after I wash them and then stretch back out. I want to get the waist size taliored to make it smaller but then I am afriad that when I wash them the waist size will shrink too much and they wont fit. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can fix this? Thanks.

Wear a belt.

If it is just the waist, if you are afraid of washing them too much you can soak only the waist and run it through the dryer.

That's the nature of denim. They'll always shrink with a wash and stretch back out. If they're too big stretched out, size down next time, or wear a belt, as mentioned.

Sizing on jeans can be trickier because of this.

should have researched how they would fit before purchasing.

best you can do now is gain weight, or wear a belt.

Have them tailored to fit after wearing. There is the I have a jean question thread for this question type.
