I have a pair of ES Hutch in 33 that fit well. I have a pair of 5EP LDB in 32 in dark worn and they are a lot tighter--at first I thought too much but they are loosening up as I wear them. Make sure you try the Hutch first. The boot is really pronounced because of the narrowing in the thigh so you need to be comfortable with the flare effect. At some angles the stacking can sometimes look kind of leg warmerish. In contrast the LDB look skinny on me because the boot is so subtle.

Yeah, I've decided against the Hutch now, mostly because I don't think a 33-34 inseam will work with the bootcut. I can stack straight jeans ok though. So now it's back to the Fulton. Does anyone know if the Filson/Fulton are one in the same? And what about the Maz Dark wash? Is it really more of a medium blue? I guess I'm basically looking for something slightly lighter than my current rotation and maybe a bit looser for the Summer. Also something I can wear with black or navy polos. I'm sort of considering sizing up the Fulton/Filson to 32 for a looser look. I've checked out the Milk Blue online, but I'm thinking this will be too light!?

Bump....

Anyone have any experience with the Fulton 75 McQueen? Azalea has them for $116. I've read so many conflicting views on the fit of ES. Basically I was wondering how a 32" Fulton would compare to my other jeans in terms of slimness; as I said, I want something a bit looser, hence the upsize.
