Probably could have sized to 33 on these to account for stretch, but they're still great

i love the jcrew urban slims buuut the consistency varies.. my one pair is an inch smaller at the waist and almost 2 inches shorter.. same size..

i just found out tho that jcrew will tailor anything you buy with the jcrew card... for free.. i ordered the "essential chinos" since i could get them in a 27" inseam (im short) but i could take all my 30's in to have hemmed for free. i say its totally worth it..

urban slims are nice taper and knee, but with out having such a tight upper half that you look like a cowboy when you tuck in your shirt.

Just got my Dickies Skinny Double Knees from dickies.com today. They are pretty damned skinny. I oculd size down a bit in the waist but my calves completely fill the lower leg. Softer than standard dickies, which usually have that polyester feel to them? I'll have to wear them a few times to get an idea if I like them or not and most likely I will be investing in a seam ripper in a few days to rid them of their logos.

Alternative chinos fits pretty well, it may taper too much for some though, but for it fits very well.

^Where did you get those from?

I ordered a couple different pairs from Urban Outfitters yesterday since they have 10% off and free shipping. I'll let you guys know how they fit once I get them. I was looking for a light pair and a slightly darker beige.

Got those from Macys. Some might find the inseam too short though, I am not particularly tall and the length is just right on me.

Topman has a really slim mustard chino out know--the skinny fennel chino in stone. I ordered it because I wanted a darker khaki, but it's actually mustard.

I like those, although if the inseam is as short as you seem to describe it they probably won't work for me (unless they come in longer 32-34 inseams...).
