I think a 28 would have been perfect waist wise, but pulling them up I'd hit a blocker with my thighs & hips. my waist is smaller compared to those two. it may be a bit hard to tell, but thighs and calf are pretty fitted (I think it's more noticeable in the calf). overall it works and since after ~30wears it should open up. my only concern there is the waist becoming too wide since its already loose to begin with. I need to check back on my heavily worn cast 2's and see how much those opened up to see if these will be manageable.

Yeah, my thighs and calf’s are definitely bigger than my waist and typically with 30 Cast 2’s they’re pretty tight all around but stretch nicely. I actually have more room in my thighs and calf’s with the Cast 1 28’s than the Cast 2 30’s which is obviously the intent with Cast 1’s.

Yeah, check back in later and let us know how it stretches out! Nothing wrong with wearing a belt lol, do that with my 31’s cause they fit perfectly in the thighs and calf’s out the box.

delete, nevermind found it. :rotflmao:

As much as I liked the Sequoia Crew, I'm going to send it back and have some credit available for a future drop.

Going to return it tomorrow if no one is interested.

Also putting up for sale the BNWT Corduroy Shorts sz 2 Medium, love them too but never going to wear them, sell them for $130 as well.

that's pretty interesting that you have more room in cast 1 28 than cast 2 30s. This initial fit seems snug for me, like most cast 2's I have. are you also talking about corpus? or another cast 1? I know corpus is 100% cotton, but not sure if that would make such a difference.

Yeah, I actually have the Squalls, which are 100% cotton as well. If you look back in the gallery I put a few pics up, which I believe you saw and they're pretty snug lol. Can even see the pocket lining, doesn't help that's they're white lol. However, I do LOVE the leg opening, it seems to be the perfect size.

Well my theory was right. Whatever the model wears go two sizes up. Smh the hood on the spruce hoodie is way smaller than normal. I’m 1-4 on BF.
the spruce surplus hoodie is so small. i dont get it lol. every je sweater i own fits me in the size i ordered INCLUDING villain...

Tracking froze for a solid 2 days. I come home from work and see that 1 of my packages on my doorstep.

Fit pics when I can later but I do like the tie dye Camo crew.

I think I could’ve gone up to a medium so that it wouldn’t be as cropped but small still fits well, Also the texture of the crew is really rough? Idk how to explain it.

if anyone wants to trade a size small for medium, let me know

If anyone is interested, it's a Size 2 Medium, I'll sell it for what I paid ($118) + shipping ($12) = $130, CONUS ONLY

Going to return it tomorrow if no one is interested.

Also putting up for sale the BNWT Corduroy Shorts sz 2 Medium, love them too but never going to wear them, sell them for $130 as well.
I will gladly take the medium. Could I give you store credit + whatever is left over? I have a size small that I may return if you want to go through with this

Last of my BF orders came in today: Cast 2 Nimbus, Fireside Shorts, and Himalayan Sweat Pants

Keeping all three pieces.

Nimbus and fireside have been around a while so not gonna do fit pics or reviews.

Himalayan Sweats:
  • My stats: 5’8” 172lbs

  • Initial Thoughts: These are THICK and COMFORTABLE. Thick is an understatement lol, they’re gonna do well for me when I crank the AC or go up north lol.
  • Sizing: Typically a 30 in JE Cast 2 and Medium in Escobars, went with a Medium on these and fit great. Could’ve even sized down 1
  • Fit: Relaxed, A LOT of room in my thighs and calf’s. The waist “belt” is pretty cool honestly, no worries at all with the waist or ass bagging out on these, especially with the thickness.
  • Hem cinch: Really really like the cinch where the hem is, makes these extremely versatile, if I want to wear with a thicker boot, uncinch and put over. If I want sneakers, cinch to taper and bring them up a bit, super super cool.
Fit pics: Did several, one with high tops (AJ1’s) and lows (700v2)
