As anyone seen stretching more than 1 inch?

A size 30 would fit better in the legs but a size 31 would fit better in the waist. If the size 30 would stretch to 32.5in it would be perfect.

Fiddy, what size do you wear in IH 634 (you got a 30 in these, correct)?

I'm not sure about a 2.5" stretch, but I'm pretty sure they'll go more than an inch. I wear a belt with mine so they don't stretch out beyond 1".

I don't have 634's, but I wear a 30 in the SEXIH07's.

I wear 32 in IronHearts and went tagsize 31 for the Jungle Cloth.
A little tight in the beginning but will soften up and provide a better long term fit.

I would need a 1.5in stretch since the size 30 has a 31in waist.

Thanks for the info Fiddy and Arrow.

I just received the jungle pants. Thanks to the above suggestions, I got a Size 30. The fit is perfect! I was a bit worried about the waist being too small but according to my measurements it's approximately 0.75in larger than the advertised value, so no problem there. They are a little tight when I lift my knees high but I'm sure they will loosen up a bit.

I am approximately 5'11'' (180cm) and 155lbs (70kg). I take a Size 31 in IH 634.

Nice fit, Dr.Pat -
Are you going to hem them?

Now your Jungle Cloth adventures begin...

You need a leopard fur coat for these.

The shininess is.. interesting... but a lot less noteworthy in the wild. Take a look at the beach photo for a good example- once you pay attention you can see sheen, but it isn't really attention drawing.

I wouldn't be so sure, they have quite a sheen to them. I haven't worn mine enough for it to go away (they are tight, and haven't stretched out at all yet), but my roomate already refers to them as my "gold pants," and a few of my other friends have brought it up as well.

I'll probably get them hemmed so that I can cuff them once. But I think I'll wait until I've washed them a few times.

The flash in the photo makes them appear more shiny than they actually are. And it's definitely not something which bothers me.

I think they get commented on because the sext11's are charismatic pants: they are just tan jeans in the same way that a black leather moto is just a dark jacket.

My NdG khaki jeans have always had a bit of a sheen to them. It's mostly gone away over time, but I have only soaked them twice (no washes). If you wanted to dull the sheen more quickly, you could just make a point of washing them often, and doing something in them other than sitting on your butt.

Any updates on these things? Thinking about buying a pair, but it's a lot of store credit if they don't work out. Worried about them being excessively golden and / or shiny.
