Yeah you may have trouble with those. I'm 32-33 and a M is big enough on me that I wish I sized down.

Yup you’ll need a small or medium. I’m a 33 and need a small. My olive green herringbone in medium is going back or whoever wants it.

XS. I take a 30 in cast 2 and small in all other JE bottoms/shorts.

It’s important to refer to height as well; I’m 5’11”. I’m a 30 in cast 2 but if I wear a small in the sweats it’s like midway up my shin.

this is where it gets confusing...because I can wear an L in the ebisus but potentially an XS in the cargos. Lol.

I know it’s obvious, but it sucks that we spend all this money sometimes for it to not be ideal.

 

[Jbidwal]

That’s what I should’ve done lol. I’m between a small-medium and went with a M. It measures 26.5” from top to bottom.

If it’s the same terry as the chrome hoodie you can size up. The terry runs small.

I guess the herringbone cargos do run big... I did everything I could to try to make it fit. Wore cord shorts underneath and folded the waistband once. But can’t be doing that all the time so will be returning them. If anyone has an XS and if anyone wants this size small, hit me up!


This is a size small and I’m usually 31 in cast 2

Indigo

What jeans?

Looks like Cast 2 Raw Indigo, think that’s what he meant by indigo.

Hmm did the sizing change on the cargos or just the herringbone? I wear 32 Cast 2 and these are M grey cargos from last year.

Yep, raw indigo. About 5-6 months of wear no wash.

Nice. Any more pics?

Did you get your regular cast 2 size

I copped those awhile back and only wore them a handful of times. I need to make them in a permanent rotation

 

[jclark216]

I get my cargos in Wednesday. Keep you guys posted.

Maybe it's my aesthetic, but all the pics of cargos I've seen posted so far seem to look fine to me. I can relate to the drastic difference in how they feel when being used to really tight jeans though. Have you all tried squatting or bending on one knee and taken that into account? Without stretch, the room is necessary IMO. I might be preaching my concerns for the value of wearing clothes that don't limit your range of motion.
I'm about 5'10" at 170 ish and wear a (very tight) 31 Cast 2 carbon, and have 2 pair of the OG cargos in L, ordered herringbone in each color and another olive in the OG, but I admit I'm going for that more comfortable approach, reminiscent of when I could cop Wtaps BDU's.

It's not the relaxed fit around the legs, it's the waist being literally too large to even pull tight with the drawstrings. If I pull the drawstrings as tight as I can, fold the waistband over on itself to make a crimp, then it sort of stays up as long as I don't move too much.
