Back in the late 80s I bought a pair of OTR pants at Gieves & Hawkes. The fitter asked me on which side did I wear myself. Befuddlement on my part; somehow he got the idea across, but I can't remenber how.

has anyone tried www.bonobos.com

I went to HS with the guy who founded the company. He played hockey and has a hockey players build (big ass and thighs) and makes pants designed for that cut. Its been getting a lot of press lately, but I dont know anyone who has ever worn them.

Interesting that they expanded away from the boot cut, which was a dealbreaker. I'd buy it if it was on sale and I could try them on IRL, but that does not look likely on either front.

Exactly, it's a zero sum game in the top block. I have a large ass and as a result can't rock the slim incos or the borrellis, it's moose knuckle city. My tailor got a good laugh out of it.

How does everyone order from Uniqlo if not in New York or Japan. I am wanting to try some of their clothing.
