Hey guys need some JE advise while sale is going on.

Ive had the Escobars for a while, the old style with the thick waist cord. I’m 6’2” 180 wear size 31/32 in denim. The escobars are size 4 and I was fine with that for while but I feel like I want to go slimmer. They sag A LOT in the back and just generally look sloppy and very baggy now. Should I be getting a size 2 or 3? I don’t want skin tight fit, I’m just apprehensive cause I feel like a size 3 will just stretch out and be baggy as well.

just looking for input.

Thanks in advance ??
Definitely not a size 2 at those measurements, it'd be skin tight. You should be safe with a size 3. All cotton sweatpants are prone to bagging out, there's not a whole lot you can do about it unless you buy a pair with elastane or a similar material.

I had Deist / Archive Rust.

They suck. Weird mid wash with stains on them, sposed to be rust, that just look like mustard stains. The amount of comments I got from people thinking I’d spilt my lunch on them.

I moved them on via Grailed for about 50 dollars. I’d avoid if I were you

I'd recommend going with size 3, I am 6'1"/180lbs and I comfortably wear size 3. I tried wearing size 2 at once point and as @jstrath406 said, they were skin tight and I ended up selling them.

Got some new with Barney's tags Odeons from eBay for $105. Not sure if I will like the knee blowouts, but that is a pretty good price.
That’s a great price on those, if u change mind on those what size are they ? I personally love my Odeon’s..

Anyone here have anything to say about the Himalayan pants? I'm looking at picking up a pair from nordstrom sale. I am looking for a casual pair of pants to throw on when I don't feel like wearing jeans...wondering if these would fit the bill. Would appreciate any insight!

I've got the Himalayan cargo's. I went TTS. I wear a M in those, Cargo pants, and sweats.

******* Nordstrom is confusing with "fit small, go up one size" :)

I talked about how similar the colors Cadet and Lapis were in my mind...here is my Cadet Uni tee on the left and my Lapis AE tee on the right...turns out there is more of a difference than I thought

I got the Himalayan Cargos in a S. I’m an S in game shorts, 29 in Cast 2 and M in sweats. Anything that has a 29 waist size fits me so I’d look at the size chart on JE. For reference I’m 6’1” 155-160.
