They're pretty awesome jeans for a good price. Hope you're really skinny in the thighs and calf or else go for SJs.

So I just got the thin finns and they are pretty tight in my thighs and calves. How much can I expect them to stretch out? I think I will need the slim jims.

They won't stretch much at all, if they even stretch any.

I thought dry denim stretches out quite a bit.

It can. But they might stretch minimally in the thighs and not at all in the calves. You bought a skinny fit pair of jeans. They won't stretch into a straight leg cut. I used to wear a pair of Nudie Slim Jims and they didn't stretch at all really in the thighs and they were fairly tight. A budy of mine wears Slim Jims and Thin Finns and the TF are still very skinny after over a month of wearing.

Thanks. I think I have to send the TF's back. Maybe I'll try slim jim.

31 or 32. I got 31x32 in the TF's

I wore my 31x34 Slim Jims for about 1 month and they don't have any fading but they've got a few slight creases. If you are interested I'll sell them to you for like $60.00. For comparison I am a 30 in APC NS and a 32 in RRL.

i got some prewashed as a gift and they're damn tight. i sized the same as other brands since there's usually some stretch involved. these mugs are damn tight, though.


anybody know about the stretch in prewashed?

 

[drizzt3117]

all jeans will stretch but you shouldn't have sized down in a washed jean.

in my experience (levi's, diesel, ernest sewn, etc.) getting my true size of 32, they end up stretching too much. 31s usually end up just right. the nudies just feel a but tighter

i have a prewashed pair of thin finns...they definitely don't stretch as much as earnest sewn washed pairs...but they do give a tad...not a whole lot though. i got my true size and am pretty happy with it

 

[grundletaint]

i'll be cool as long as i get .5" out of them.
