Yeah, I ended up grabbing some WGs in a 29. Hoping they don't end up being too big based on the vanity sizing + stretching everyone's talking about. No big loss if they are, I guess, given the ridiculous discount.

I have Slim Guys and have been wearing them for about 4 months now. I sized down 1 and they were pretty tight in the waist upon first wear. Now with my belt on, I can slide them down from my waist below my butt with relative ease. Thinking I might be getting close to needing a soak to shrink them back up a little. Pics to follow soon!

if you're buying weird or slim guys you need to size down 2 to take into account the full stretch, should be the 1st commandment

If anybody is a size 34, I'm letting go a great-condition pair of Weird Guys for just $60. Check the signature.

Yeah, meaning a 28 might be better for me, but those sold out.

I think i've made the situation better, i went back to the shop and even though the jeans were supposed to be final sale, i got to exchange. I exchanged them for 31 Weird Guys in the same wash. I'm not too sure if the sizing is okay, but these feel tighter than my normal 29x30 or 30x30 Levis jeans...

So, what's the procedure on these?

Unfortunately, i can't get exc/refunds, and i'm a noob at this, didn't expect my cousin to buy raw for me...

also, if i use a belt, why does the back of my jeans kinda distort, is it because of the belt? or the jeans?

Or should i just ignore everyone and just wear em anyways?

same here. theyre a bit too tight in the thigh, but Im kinda used to the discomfort now. still freakishly snug after a few weeks of constant wear, hopefully theyll loosen up a bit more soon.
