I bought a pair of these (from Doc of course) in size 33 and found the waist to be a tad small, but no problem to let out about 1/2". Seat and legs, though, are quite slim, so keep that in mind.

ok then, if they're slim already, then I'll have to pass but PLEASE keep me in mind for any flannel flat fronts in light or medium grey in a size 34

I really need to replace some that are worn

also, if Doc or anyone knows where I can still find them at retail, please let me know
