seriously. i dont get why the waist had to be that big. I bought the 36 and had the waist taken in 2 inches. This time I sized down to a 34. The other measurements are negligible but the waist is a whole inch smaller.

35.25 - 35.5. Picked up the 34. The thigh and leg are slim so I couldnt go any lower than 34

No kidding, the waist sizing on the cords is insane. Mistakenly bought size 30 in the navy and the tan last season. They aren't awful with a belt but I find I don't wear them that much because of that. Need to look at getting them taken in.
