Pleats were the answer all along.

What is the best way to minimize the appearance of big thighs if you are also short? I'm a healthy weight but my big thighs ruin any chance of a perfectly slim silhouette.

Embrace it! Also don't cuff as that can exacerbate the short stumpy appearance.

namu shop has restocked a bunch of their denim. both hatski and kaptain sunshine have a decently sized thigh. hatski has a much more substantial taper though. i have the KS east coast denim and really like the fit.

I met Ronnie around 2003 or 2004. I was surprised that I dwarfed him. He was surprisingly short.

I’ve been searching for a pair of slim straight selvedge denim with decent but still trim thigh room (34” waist, “13 thigh, slightly tapered leg). Surprisingly, the John Elliott Daze in Raw Indigo nailed my preferred measurements all around (hoping the size chart is accurate). If you’re above 6’2” they may be too short though. They’re on a flash sale right now, down from $328 to $139 if you order by midnight.

The Daze / Raw Indigo - JOHN ELLIOTT

15 oz heavyweight Japanese selvedge denim in raw indigo. The fabric is sanforized and crafted from a low tension weave combined with mixed slub yarns, resulting in a unique and rigid hand feel. Five pocket design with a button fly. Classic straight leg fit with a medium rise and slight taper...

This seems to be a dead thread but I have to say that I'm thankful it exists, and that I can't believe I waited this long to look for something like this. Much appreciated.
