My pair of the Grand Canyon buckle back pants arrived today. Man, these are slim in the thighs! I think I'm going to have to return them. Reminds me of slim fit jeans - though not quite that slim.


They are pretty slim fitting as opposed to other years where they were a much looser fit. The problem with this material is they won't stretch out like denim will. If they're uncomfortable, you should definitely return them.

I think I will. I tried them on in the store, but underestimated how much I'd have to size up. And there is definitely no give in them.

Thanks for the info!

It would be awesome if Kanye and Jay-Z stopped wearing RRL jeans. Mine, mine, all mine! :devil:

I'd just settle for people to stop posting about them when they do.

How much do RRL jeans stretch in waist and thigh from their original measurements, before they are worn/washed, etc?

I need a pair of jeans whose waist measures 17.5" once it's broken in (or whatever it's called) and thigh measurements between 11.5-12".

I agree with 99% of what u say except this.. That comment reminded me of ur boy RRShop. We all have the right to buy/wear what ever we like that makes us feel good. Only we knew they were RRL jeans, not the average person.

I feel u that it's better that fewer people know about it but they're are at least keeping the brand alive by paying full price for **** we never would. We salivate at the idea of our favorite pieces hitting the outlet.

I agree. I just dont want the quality to go down. I fear that as the popular becomes more popular, their will be downward pressure on price and consequently, quality.

$30 RRL shirt

Too bad that shirt isn't in my size. As ugly as it is (and is it really from the Everest collection???), I'd rock the hell out of it.


+1. At that price, I wouldnt think twice about wearing it

If you're looking at the "1 Wash" I would suggest the Slim Fits or Low Straights in a W32-33" depending on what you're looking for and how tight you like it... but of course, I may be wrong.
