I agree that these are pretty tight. I usually take a 32, wanted to try a 31 cause I took a 32 in the Washed Black Mr. Porter's from years past and they're so loose now. In addition, people recommended trying down a size on the Carbons. These are what they look like with a slimmer boot not the chunky 500 but overall I'm most likely going to return them the 32's.

Looks good from that angle with the boots. My Carbons stretched out after few wears so you might alright if you’re willing to wait it out.

Here are some comparison pics of the Sahara vs Coast 2 denim. Saharas are a bit more stiff compared to the Coast 2.

Although I really love the subtle distressing of the Sahara not sure if I can justify keeping both pairs

I have the Coast 2s and really want to get the Saharas because the feel and fit is alot better but those washes do look almost identical.
