I would suggest the same size. they will stretch in the waist quite a bit. I highly doubt you would be able to sz down to a 34 to the fact the thighs will probably be to slim.

Yea I guess TTS it is then. And do these have a mid rise? Cause low rises aren't for me

the slims are very slim and low in my opinion. I think it would be smarter to go with straights and have them adjusted if need be for tapering

How is the cut of the Krause pop over. I find alot of popover to be fitted in the chest and shoulder while cut too generous in the mid section. Also is it med weight rigid denim or a lighter weight ?

I felt like a complete noob asking that here but I've never seen it fully explained. I've heard the "double r" explanation but it didn't clarity. Ricki and Ralph Lipschitz makes much more sense.

I highly doubt the L stands for Lifshitz and not Lauren. That's just my opinion though.

Thinking of pulling the trigger on this Striped Popover Workshirt. Have any of you seen it in person? Curious if it has more of a classic fit compared to other RRL shirts.

Thanks! I ended up getting a pair of low straights after using the fit guide on the RRL site and you just confirmed it for me. I have muscular quads so I need that room for sure.
