No grund looks great in the jean.
You look good too , however you SHOULD NOT go down a size.
These jeans aren't APC's you don't want to get them butt ass tight.
This is a luxury denim with a luxury look. Do get sucked into painted on jeans.

Yours are fine let them fall out and take the look they are ment to do. Trust me I do this for a living.
Best,
Mauro

Luxury look = clean ,sophisticated, proper fitted...etc

yes you can wear it like street wear and rock but not like a pair of cheap Mondays.. Do I make sense??

i have a gap like that in almost all of my pants and you should too unless your spine protrudes out. i think it lessens as they break in and soften up, anyways. y

joel, yours definitely look a lot tighter than mine. i'd stick with the pair you have. also, wear a belt if you want to minimize waist stretch, which i think will be minimal anyhoo.

Very helpful feedback grundle (and Mauro)! I cut off the tags and read the insert about the design, care, etc. Should I really wash them before getting them hemmed? Or can I just wear them for a week or two and then get them hemmed?

Did you guys order true size? I'm ordering a pair and I was going to go down one from my normal size as I have very skinny legs. Even my PBJ xx-005 are fairly loose around my legs compared to other pics I see.

I, myself, ordered true-to-size.

I got my Pipe legs yesterday. Very nice jean - it feels very lightweight and I love the ultra-smooth hand. They fit a little loose on me and I could have easily sized down to a 33 but I'm gonna roll with the size 34. The fit is relaxed but the silhouette is slim. These have a similar cut to the ESEF Sky and Ande Whall Grifters - in other words, the perfect silhouette for me. Slim, mid rise, modern. Aces.
