get smaller balls.

BTW, are any ways to minimise stretching in waist of denim? Will wearing a belt help?

For my 3sixteens's straight, the legs fit fine, but I have a flatter ass so its loose in the rear. I can pull it up to commpensate slightly but theres this problem.

if you wear a belt then stretching should be minimal, as long as you wear it tight enough

What is the fit like for the Uniqlo T-000? Is the fit extremely skinny like the Levi's 510?

I'm also wondering if It's cool to get STF's and not soak them, and once I need my wash, I could just get in the tub with them. does that make sense to do? Please give me some guidance.

Absolutely not.

Can you elaborate? is the unsanforized denim weaker before you soak it?

soak them first dude. if you wear them they're not gonna fit right and then once they hit water, all teh fadez and **** will move....hence, shrink to fit.

Ball room will depend on the cut and the manufacturer (expect some stretching), but by your description, yeah, too tight. How do they fit elswhere (especially throught the seat)?

33 or 34 stf will work for you in the waist(33 will stretch some, and the 34 won't stretch much since it won't be really tight). Look at the thigh sizes and go with what will fit you better there (large thighs go 34, small thighs go 33). I have 22-23" thighs and a 32.5" waist and went with a 33 sanforized (equivalent to 34 stf). I could of went an inch smaller in the waist, but the thighs would definitely of been too small.

I already have a pair of APC's that are pretty beat, if I can't find anything similar that I like I think I will just get another pair of those (

I've got some new unworn Momotaro jeans (similar to APC NS in cut and incredible jeans) for sale on EBay right now. Size 30 waist, 32 inseam. I've dropped the price to something competitive with APC.

See my above post re: Momotaro jeans FS... ^^

Another point (to elaborate on fortysomething's here), is that there's a direct correlation between the jean's rise, waist tightness/stretch and crotch, um, 'snugness'.

For example, a pair of jeans with an average 11" rise but a very tight waist on you will sit higher on your hips, hence, the crotch will sit higher until the waist stretches. A lower rise jean, but with a looser waist on you may actually sit lower on your hips and give you a roomier crotch than the higher rise jeans.

A lot has to do with waist tightness, which may work itself out as you wear them and the waist stretches. Give them time, since you can't return them now anyway.

Right now I'm looking at a pair of LVC 1944 501's and I'm having trouble which size to get with these. My Crate Route's in size 33 are a perfect fit for me if that could be a reference point. The measurements are the same minus the higher rise on the 501's. Should I get the 34's in the 1944s?
