7.5

they're still fairly new so maybe they just need to soften up some more? sometimes i get them looking right but they inevitably puff back out

Tough to stack on a 7.5 especially if the inseam is too long, when they start loosening up it will be better.

I have plenty of great jeans. I just wanted some black Diors because they hold their color so well. I guess I'll try the 19cms.

Honestly i don't think your body type is right for dior, even the 21cm's.

Ok guys.. what do you think of Alexander McQueen jeans?
I picked up white/cream pair that is made in Italy and the fabirc is gorgeous with some nice suble striping. It has that big silver tag in place of a leather patch which is fine, my belt will go over it.. but that big Q on one of the pocket jeans.. not sure if I like that or not. It is "camouflaged" so not noticeable.. but still.

Thoughts? Any of you have their jeans or is it SF faux paus?

Actually, they are not.
I know we are trying to steer away from the "SF groupthinking and uniform", but that Q is not out of the box. It is just tacky.
