i just picked up a pair. the rise is so low and tight in my crotch area that i feel like my balls are about to explode. this is disappointing, since the material feels nice and the price was great on sale =(


Agree, the rise is too damn low. They are supposed to be BB's slimmest pants so I guess there isn't a milano with high rise? It sucks because they're great on sale as you said.

I''ve an inseam length of "30, and I was thinking on doing this with my next pair of chino:
Buy a chino with "32 length, then I can cuff it up when needed, but also hide the fabric on the inside for the uncuffed style.

Opinions?

I get chills, I just hate tight chinos, but hey, that's me. I have bought two classic J Crew chinos, the perfect combination between slim and regular fit , atleast for me. :)

Dunno if I should've pulled the trigger on these Alpha Khakis. These are sized down two from my true waist size, to 30x30. My only gripes were the mid-rise and the really deep pockets.

Thoughts?

To each his own. There is actually still space between my leg and the fabric, but I can imagine anyone else with bigger legs getting the circulation cut off wearing these. :lol:

Others have complained about the Milano fit from Brooks Brothers, but I just kopped a pair of the garment dyed chinos and found them to be excellent. Good quality material and the fit was spot on for me -- low rise and all. Overpriced @ full price but you can probably get them w/ a coupon. They're not quite as tight as the Dockers Alphas.
