If you want to wear such plain outfits, you'll have to work out more.

Not actually WIWWT, but I wanted to post my KMW Rockers fit to contrast with Moo's a few pages back:

Reckon it's the difference between sizing down and TTS.

I would have sized down two on mine but the waist and the thighs just couldn't possibly fit. Sizing down 1 wasn't quite enough for me. Yours are quite new, aren't they? The fit will change after many wears and washes.

Nice fit. Mine are like 500 sizes larger than yours, making them roomier everywhere.

But the jeans will increase proportional to the (theoretical) increase of your body size as you go up in tagged size. Unless your lower legs are equivalent to a sz.28's lower legs while your waist is a 33, Rockers should not look like 501s

I love dale's pale ale. Best beer in a can!

Yeah, one-washes fresh out tha box. I actually find the thighs reasonably forgiving on these, at least relative to other jeans with a hem this narrow. And I'm definitely wearing them higher than I will once they stretch out. (FWIW, the top button was a bit of a struggle.)

Sorry, didn't mean to throw a dart at your fit (<3 that jacket, B.T. dubs); I had just seen your post before putting these on for the first time, and it struck me how differently they fit overall. I just wanted to illustrate how sizing makes two pairs of what are ostensibly the same jeans look completely different.

For reals. Ten Fiddy (also Oskar Blues) is even better, but totally a black-out stout.

^i've tried everything but the stout. Guess I'll have to put that on the list

^ Winter seasonal, the cold weather counterpart to Gubna (imperial rye IPA)

He's probably trying to trick us, they will turn out to be those 600 euro handmade ones.

Shoot Jay at Blue Owl an e-mail and ask him if he sold me Rockers or not. I really don't like that you are insinuating that, somehow, I am marsupialed and don't know how to read a jean tag, or that Jay is marsupialed and shipped me the wrong jeans. You've said this twice now... come on. My rockers are a size 36. They have like 1.5" more leg opening than a 28, or something like that. Extrapolate from there the rest of the size disparity.

So? Are your legs the same size as a sz.28? No, they're larger, but the increase in waist size should translate to a proportional change in other measurements as well

i don't know what you're getting at. moo isn't as skinny as some of the 20 year old asians like you and me? im pretty sure that 6" in the waist in moo's jeans isn't corresponding to a proportionally longer/wider leg, which makes his jeans not look or fit as slim.
