low straights are my jam.. I like the slim bootcut also but limited to the 4 pairs I have from when the fit was widely available.. hell I even like the straights! Slim look good but never tend to work with my footwear

Anyone have any idea what brand this jacket could be? In your opinion is it waxed or just dirty cotton customized for the show? About the jeans used in the show do you recognize a particular brand?

Jacket is Freenote Cloth - the Riders. The same character wears RRL waffle Henleys
Jeans - They use a lot of mainline Levi's, Wrangler and Kimes Ranch. Kevin Costner, as far as I can tell, wears exclusively RRL jeans. I don't think any other characters in the show wear RRL denim but I do think a few are wearing RRL + Polo pieces.

Yeah the jacket is freenote and waxed, though freenote made a joke in a post somewhere about his jacket needing rewaxing so it would need some wear to reach that point.

I went try to size. In most brands I'll order a 29" waist for a good fit and 30" waist for a loose fit.

I ordered 2 pairs, the 29 X 34 and the 30 X 34, and kept the 29" waist. As it is the fit is a bit loose for me. The waist measures 15.5" across (31" around). That's after one wash but there really wasn't any shrinking.

When I did the online chat with the RRL rep, they said that the 29" waist would measure 29" around. According to what I see that guy was off by 2".

I have 3 pairs of officer chinos and I had read somwhere that I had to size up from my regular chino size. I ordered one size up and they were too big on the waist. In my experience they fit the same as the other ralph lauren chinos.

I have never heard people size up on RRL chino for sure, was your slim chino or the older officer chino

hum on the older officer I downsize 2, i.e. true waist 30 wear 28 (and I wear TTS on regular polo ralph lauren, ralph lauren purple label, old ralph lauren black label etc.), guess it's just a mystery sometimes...

Does the more relaxed fit Field Chino fit TTS or should one downsize? Also, how voluminous in fit is it compared to the officer chino?
