Got it. Thanks. Should I go with my Escobar sizing (M) or the Ebisu sizing (S) for the Rios?

I don't have Ebisu but I find the Rio fit similar to Escos. I do large in both (both fit slim).

Question, if you have no butt will you still get the butt sag? Srs.

:) I'm not sure...I have a butt but I would think so. It's the material which is why I've given up on JE sweat but am also waiting to hear more about the LA sweats as a few members said they don't bag (but people initially said that about Rios too).

I'm starting to eye sweats that are made of tech fabrics like these:

Reigning Champ is solid, you could also checkout their sister company Wings + Horns for other stuff.

when u guys get ur jeans, i was thinking of putting in the washing machine with delicate settings on alone with cold water. then hang to dry.

also is it true that after u wash them, the fabrics tighten up and stretches less?
Washing in cold water and using the most gentle cycle is fine. Hang dry always. After you wash tehm they will tighten just a little. They will stretch back out after 2-3 wears to normal based on my experience.

Yeah that's how I wash and dry them (and all my clothes). Cold wash on gentle and lay flat to dry.

I'm 5'11 and 150 and the Rio(medium) are my favorite sweats, the hem has the perfect amount of stacking and the drop crotch is not too exaggerated. Really good for skinny athletic build imo.

I have some Lulu and Under Armour pants that are sort of a mix between soft and nylon-ish. Definitely retain their shape, but not as cozy as what I image some of these french terry sweats are to be.

Somebody buy the Bouganvillea or convince me why I should cop it! LOL

The black ones are sooo good, gah I don’t need a pair... I don’t need a pair...:brick:

Do it!

I didn't think I needed a pair until I tried them on. They are by far my favorite JE sweats. I still need to track down a pair of washed black LA Sweats in a size medium. I may cave in and buy the Oak pair to hold me over.

Both pairs of kicks go hard with the Sochi’s

Thank you!

The Sochi's pair well with bulkier shoes. I'm loving the relaxed fit as well.

I would totally buy Bougainvillea if they had my size in-stock.

I saw your fit pics of the Ivory one - you wear an M? Wondering if I could do the small, seeing conflicting things online

Thanks, I've had my eye on these, just copped both. I have the Ivory Bougainvillea and always get compliments on it when I wear it. Cop it.
