So, I finally took the plunge into dry denium on Saturday. I picked up some Slim Jim dry blacks. I have a question about the amount they will stretch. I have pretty athletic thighs, yet a small waist. So I got a 29/32. Now the waist has already stretched out a bit, but the thighs feel as though they are painted on. How much will they stretch, I'm worried that if i go up a size, the waist will be too big, I still want that slim look, just not the nut crusher look i have now. thanks for the help! Best Regards.

keep the 29s. I just got a 29/34 sjdb a month ago, and they've stretched about an inch in the waist, and the thighs have stretched enough that they are now quite comfortable. After a few days, the denim will soften up enough that it won't feel nearly as tight.

That's good to hear. Thanks for the help, I can't wear them all day because of work, so I'm sure the break in time will be a bit longer, but I'll keep working on them. Best Regards.
