My go to loose fit pants are double knee Dickies or Ben Davis pants if I'm feeling spendy, what about you guys?
I've been eying a pair of Carhartt B159s and was wondering if the fit was comparable
-
I've been feeling loose fit pants lately too. Only got Volcom Modown jeans and Volcom VSM Gritter chinos. Both I really like. Volcom pants always fit me good and have good stretch. Even with the looser fit I feel like stretch is essential. I'm open for suggestions though as I look like a total Volcom gimp cuz I have so much Volcom gear. :-X

I never had double knees but carhartt B159 are really nice.

someone in here suggested polar surf pants as breezy for summer and now I love em. I think I got a size down from what I’d usually get?
-
I get DC worker chino's when they're on special. You can get them under 30$ sometimes.
-
Artform Cargos. I love them and I buy XL. The pants are made by roth co and other brands use these pants too. No Comply skate shop has these pants also but they price them at $56 and artform prices them at $44
I bought a pair from No comply because they had a color artform doesn’t sell.
They still have a 30% off sale going on right now too.

I've been eyeing the Carhartt WIP Dallas pant, haven't pulled the trigger yet though
-
If you have a Nordstrom Rack near you, check it out. They usually have Volcom chinos in stock. They're loose, but not baggy. And they're like $25. Ended up nabbing 5 pairs one day because they've become my daily pants.

old navy.

carhartt wip a size up and big boys
Or just go to the thrift and just but some pleated chinos or corduroys
-
Levis 502 are nice and loose for me. Mine have a nice flex.

how are people skating in WIP? i cant will myself to skate in nice clothes even if they are skate brands...

I don't consider WIP nice, just sort of expensive. I typically keep a rotation so after I wear something for a while and it fades or gets stains or whatever I'll shift it over to the skate pile and buy a replacement.
-
I'm intrigued by WIP but I live in a small city so I never get to see the stuff in person. I do love regular old carhartt clothing though. Is the sizing the same? I wear an XL in other brand t shirts but somehow the Carhartt M 100% cotton pocket t shirt is perfect on me.

Do they taper at all or are they a straight leg loose fit?

I run Carhartt pants every day at work so here's a short review of the two types of loose ones in my rotation.
http://www.carhartt.com/products/carhartt-pants/Washed-Twill-Dungaree---Relaxed-Fit-B324
(http://shop.r10s.jp/auc-redwood/cabinet/04329087/imgrc0073774256.jpg)
The B324 is a nice mix between relaxed and loose fit and is the most durable pant I have ever owned. The photo on the Carhartt website is not accurate to actual fit so I embedded the second image that is closer to reality. These are kind of the perfect medium fit that can look good with cup or vulc soled shoes and whatever top you want to do. The olive is my favorite color followed by the khaki. The black fades quite a bit. Even working construction these will last me 3-4 years a pair.
http://www.carhartt.com/products/carhartt-pants/Carhartt-Force-Tappen-Cargo-Pant-101148
The Force Cargo is a great hot weather pant and something that looks different from everyone else's BDU ripoffs. The seams are kind of busy but not as pronounced as in the picture. If you skate in the summer they are the coolest and quickest drying pants I have ever found. They are lifesavers when working on roofs or concrete pads in hot weather. The fit is pretty baggy but not ridiculous and the pockets and tabs stay intact instead of flopping out after three washes.
A couple of fit tips if you're ordering instead of buying in person. I always add +1 inch to waist size on Carhartt compared to any other pant and since they need to fit over my boots I add +2 inches to inseam. They will high water on you over time if you do not. Cricketclub is right about their shirt sizing being all over the place. I usually order a size down from normal and it's still a little big. In person buying is best and Boot Barn, Sportsmans Warehouse, Bass Pro, etc. will almost always have them in stock and sometimes run really good sales.
Carhartt does cost more than some other brands but in my experience they last much longer and when I move it from the "work" to "skate" stack they still look good.
-
Levi's 550. Relaxed and tapered. In your regular size they're still pretty baggy, but I went a size up to the 34x29 and they're real nice and loose.

Not as durable as dickies/carhartts probably but really durable for how soft and lightweight they are. Had a pair for over 2 years, only one tiny rip on the side. Granted I don't send it and eat shit on rough asphalt but still

i literally just got them this week but they feel a bit more sturdier than they look, not overly thick like dickies/carhartt but thicker than sweatpants and more dense. soft and comfy

I've never tried the b159's but have loved several pairs of b151's (I think the main difference is material and utility pockets?). Mine fit loose all over and are super tough.
Has anyone tried the Ben Davis Gorilla Cut?

550s are great. I've been looking for the perfect pair of jeans for years after getting sick of wearing dickies for so long. Went out on a whim and bought some 550s on ebay just last week. They fit me perfectly.
-
550 Levis got the feeling back for me to. I was getting 559 which are a bit baggier fit but they are no longer available in Canada so 550 will have to do. The difference is a bit heavier / tougher denim and a tad less baggy.
-
I’m gonna have to try 550 next time I see em
-
When you got huge tree trunk thighs through genetics alone, Levi’s are out. Dickies Loose Fit Flex are the only thing that has worked for me. Cheap, last several years, never shrink just fade, and can be worn in a business casual environment no problem. Those artform cargos look loooooose as hell and super comfy I’m gonna grab some in the near future. Cheers for the review, johnes.

Levis 550's rear pockets make your butt look bad. The pockets are spaced too far from each other.

yeah I wouldn't really call them sturdy. but they are definitely the most comfortable pants I own.
I treated myself to some of their Denim Chinos around christmas time and they are the nicest jeans I've ever owned and fit is just perfect. the denim is definitely stronger than the surf pants material . similar style of fit though .

Funny you sad that. Today I was putting on my 550s and noticed this. At first I thought it was a defect or something. Still like the pants though.
-
I use to like levi 550s but now I wear levis 569 and simply love these. I've gone through many faces. For a while I only wore volcom pants, then I tried some dc pants and was all about them until I moved on to levis. A while ago I stumbled upon an ebay page where the seller sold pants like emerica, foundation, fourstar, and other brands from the 90's era. I bought a few pair but the only downside has been the cost for shipping.

those look great, wanting to try those now. a review called them "super dickies". ou get them in store? $69 is kinda steep though?

Just chiming in to tell everyone that Polar surf pants are very nice, light, baggy and pretty durable for their thickness and weight. They are pretty expensive tho but if you find them on a sale go for it I really like them.

I’ve never bought skate brand stuff besides t-shirts but these pants look super comfortable I would be willing to pay $69 if these are good quality and will last.
-

I really like these too, they remind me of the vans chinos but they don't rip as easy.
-
I tried on a pair of the Authentic Glide Pros at my local before eventually getting the Buttergoods Philly S pants.
The Glide Pros seemed pretty well made, had a nice fit and were comfortable but I wasn't wild about the high percentage of polyester in the blend since I'm in a generally warm climate. They are going to get some black ones in off the next run and that may be enough to convince me to try a pair.

Skate - Dickies 874 Flex Fit
Chillin - Levis 569

ive been running some levis 550's that i thrifted, double knee carhartt pants, some carhartt loose fit work jeans, and these nike acg pants i found at an outlet for 60 bucks ( https://www.nike.com/t/acg-mens-trail-pants-XzBrwB) if you can find them for like 60 or less then i would recommend them but u definitely need to go a size down cause they fit fucking huge. theyre great for skating tho, its a durable ripstop material but theyre still lightweight
-
Bonds trackies dacks.. brah
I back this, tho I run Insport trackies if I'm lurking the local Westfield.
I got the Polar Denim Chinos for Christmas and instantly bought another pair which I was stoked to find on sale. Other than that, Carhartt W.I.P carpenter pants are perfect as well.

Does anyone know how the fit of the polar denim chinos compare to their 90, 93 or big boy jeans? And what other differences there are besides the pleats and different shaped pockets. Seem to be sold out everywhere.

Check them out on the polar site. They have a guide up with the dimensions. I have the 93 jeans and the denim chinos and the chino fit are definitely looser and bigger. They seem to taper in a tiny bit but not as much as the surf pants. I’m a big fan so far. Would definitely buy another pair if I can get a good price. Best loose fit jeans that fit in the waist.

I've got a pair of black Levi's Skateboarding "Baggy" Jeans in 31 x 30 that I'm trying to get rid of. Brand new with tags, never worn outside of trying them on. Nice baggy fit, kind of similar to Polar surf pants but in a black acid wash-y kind of finish. Down to let them go for cheap, just shoot me a message.

Thanks. So far I've found the 93s to fit better than the big boys and 90s though I did size up slightly for it. Denim chinos sound like they'd be perfect going true to size so hopefully they stay sold out otherwise I'll have to spend even more money on jeans I don't need.

yeah kinda confused by the Walmart labeling too bc I grabbed the core version not flex of the 874 and they just have a more comfortable waist, sit lower which is welcomed.

Walmart sells a cheaper quality type of Dickies called “Genuine Dickies”. If the pants don’t have the same type of tag as the legit 874 Flex, I wouldn’t trust it to be the same quality. I’ve always ordered direct from Dickies and with standard shipping it’s always taken just two days to arrive. You can usually find an online coupon code for 20% off.
-
My Walmart Dickies have always been great and long lasting. I would get the basic cheap ones and the ones labeled with flex. go a size up from your waist and they are pretty comfy.

I like Wrangler Cargos recently (relaxed fit). Nice twill pants that fit perfectly loose, and only 25$ on amazon.

I typically go direct with Dickies, although I have experienced a lot of those sale codes don't work on 874 models but the codes that dickies send out with orders will. Fast shipping also.

Yeah they throw in 20% off coupons with every order so I can use it on the next one. But my dickies last me several years so it ends up expiring. I don’t really care for anything else they have to offer. I’ve tried shirts and hoodies from them and they fit weird.

I usually order 4 pairs of pants every fall 1-Black, 1-Grey, 1-Brown, 1-Olive. When it starts to get warm I hack them into shorts. Been on this cycle for a few years now.

I'm intrigued by WIP but I live in a small city so I never get to see the stuff in person. I do love regular old carhartt clothing though. Is the sizing the same? I wear an XL in other brand t shirts but somehow the Carhartt M 100% cotton pocket t shirt is perfect on me.
I cant speak for the shirts but the pants fit bigger than usual for sure. Im generally a 34, but go 36 on most pants for fit, but the WIP 36s fit like a 38 even after washing/drying. theyre huge.

Vans Glide Chinos are dope. The satin interior feels great except when it is humid and they're decently cheap.

They have measurement guides on both sites. WIP is a bit slimmer. I have a standard carhartt vest in a small and a WIP vest in a medium. They both fit exactly the same. I would say WIP is closer to the rest of fashion on sizing and standard carhartt is for burley dudes on job sites/have space to allow for layering

i have a couple pairs of WIP pants and a t-shirt and it all runs big, there's measurements for only some of the items on their website, ssense.com has a lot of measurements for WIP stuff too
also everyone's talking about the surf pants but they pale in comparison to the polar karate pants, that's the real good shit

Chef wear is having a buy one get one free sale. Their pants are fairly comfortable and loose enough to skate in. Just got two pairs of the rip stop ones.

Anyone ever wear Red Kap pants? Their website has lots of different fits and colors for reasonably cheap but I'm nervous to give it a try.

I've stopped by the Goodwill mid session between spots a few times and go through tons of $5 pants. I've ripped so many through the knee and blown out the seat. Oddly, I really liked black Old Navy Loose Ultimate Built-In Flex Chinos. Dickies are decent and everyone knows that. Most other pants get a hole in the knee after a mission (not session) or two.
I'm also advocating for the RVCA weekend pant. Really liked them but lost them traveling.
The other night, I hit a wet spot while taking a turn around a hill and rolled around in the Nike SB Flex pant in olive and surprised I didn't put a scratch on them. I went to the Nike outlet and found some clearance SB pants, hoping they'll hold up as well.
Polar Surf pants are great. I have the ones with the blue illustration over them. Feel great and look neato.
All of these are loose enough to wear long underwear under them too for winter skating. It might stick out the bottom but I don't really care.

Good looks, just got some of those DC relaxed tapered jeans in blue on Amazon for 15 bucks. Fit looks promising.
edit: nice quality, fit is real good, a tiny bit baggier than 93s. Though the leg opening is smaller than the 93, tapers towards the very end.

Just grabbed volcom frickin 17 in brown yesterday at local. 17” leg opening and relaxed rise/regular fit seem decent pretty thick but some stretch

Just got some Polar surf pants for cheap (compared to usual price) and they are pretty awesome. They feel and fit a lot like the Chef wear pants I listed above and also a lot like martial arts pants (specifically worn in Kung fu or Karate pants).
I would not ever pay full price for them, but if I can find them for $30/40 I’d grab them again

I like the Polar 93's would like to try the surf pants but they are expensive.
I recently got some DC relaxed tapered jeans and they are great, can be had for cheap too. Similar size to the 93's but are pleated and taper in more.

Good looks, just got some of those DC relaxed tapered jeans in blue on Amazon for 15 bucks. Fit looks promising.

Just look up DC Men's Worker Relaxed Taper but it seems like I might have gotten really lucky with a pricing error as it seems to have already gone up.

Some Levi's skateboarding baggy jeans 40 bucks. Loose fitting, straight leg with no taper. It's pretty good quality, and the material seems sturdy and keeps its shape.

the relaxed fit is good too, they have a slight taper. Unfortunately you get what you pay for with these though and they lose their shape relatively quickly and dump out.

Definitely. In terms of quality youre not missing out on much in comparison to levis in 2020. Levis have honestly gotten pretty poor and have incorporated stretch to almost everything which doesnt age well ether.

The XL big boys fit, but are too baggy for me. 36x34 93 jeans and 90 jeans also fit, but for some reason my pair of 36x34 93s seem a bit cropped.

Ive only tried 32/32 in Polar. I wont wear pants too big in the waist, bcuz I hate when it bunches up. I also have a narrow waist of 31 (in Levis).
-
93s i think are shorter on purpose, theyre supposed to fit around the ankle, big boys are supposed to be longer. I have a medium and a large in the big boys and the large has a 34" inseam and the medium has a 32". I had 3 pairs of 93s but got rid of them all cause of how short they were and switched to big boys and they fit much nicer. Surf pants fit closer to the big boys length wise as well. basically if you want the 93s just size up on the inseam, if i had done that they would have fit just fine

I haven't seen them online but I saw some HUGE Vans chinos at Nordstroms Rack. Really thick material, light brown, beige.
Seemed like a 18-19" leg opening. I had a big pants, small wheels flashback.
Inseam must have been made to cutoff cuz it was 40-something. Put them on in front of me like chaps and the legs completely covered my feet and kept going.

34/36, 37 are impossible to find and know they’ll fit perfectly cuz I’m 6’2.

carhartt makes a 36, that's my usual go to. the b01 double fronts that are supposed to be "shrink to fit" are like a 38 inseam (and really dont shrink), so i usually cuff them. their pre washed pants are a true 36

holy shit, 36 inseam... my midget ass has pants stacking up on my shoes like crazy whenever i go 32 or up. i can't even relate lol. optimal length for me would be 31, i can wear these as it is or cuff em up when i feel like it without them looking like highwaters.
polar surf pants in regular cut length size s have the perfect length for me personally. best pants anyway.

Well I don't know the exact reason but I think that since women work a lot on their bodies to keep it in a good shape so they don't mind revealing it by wearing tight jeans.
Now men are also moving towards skinny jeans. I am a man from India and I recently went to buy jeans for myself, all the jeans that the shopkeeper showed me were either skinny or super skinny jeans. I told him that I wanted a loose fitting jeans, but he told that since men nowadays don't prefer loose jeans so they don't sell. So i though of trying one of those tight jeans.

Relaxed fit volcom "frickin" chinos, they've got the perfect amount of stretch. I'm still wearing an olive colored pair I got at the end of high school. Honestly volcom pants in general have been excellent imo. If you want sweats, nike sb "shield swoosh" pants are also really comfy.

Anybody has experience with the double knee pant by dickies? Does it fit baggier than the 874? Trying to step up my baggy pants game as the 874 feels slightly too tapered at the legs for me right now.
Carhartt is unfortunately quite expensive in europe (workwear & the WIP line).
Also, how do these run? I have a 34/34 in 874. Same story, different pants?
Thanks buddys

The double-knees are usually looser, but it depends on what kind you’re getting. The ones with flex are usually much looser in seat and thigh and a little looser in general. I have a pair of “genuine” (Walmart line) ones and even though they’re supposed to be relaxed fit, they’re looser than the regular line ones that are marked as loose fit.
Is 34/34 your true size, or do you go bigger in the waist? I can’t buy true to size waist dickies, the seat and thigh is just way too tight. Anyways, in general with dickies I’d recommend going at least a size up, if not two sometimes.

Straight from their website:
A comfortable men’s pant, the original 874 work pant sits at the waist with a traditional fit through the seat and thigh. Slimming flat front and slightly tapered leg look good on every body type. Available in 26” to 72” waist size and a range of inseams so you can find your perfect fit.
Not that i dislike its style. the 874s have been my go to pants since at least 3 years, but I'd be down to have 1-2 baggier pants.
And yeah I do fit 34 in dickies only., Usually ranging from 32 to 33 in carhartt.
The Dickies Pensacola Jeans is also a valid opportunity i may take into account

I have spent a couple of months in the Nike SB FTM Olive Cargo. They are made from lightweight ripstop with a 3% stretch. I would describe the fit as something like my beloved Carhartt B324, loose/relaxed but not ridiculously large. The material really is lightweight and stays cool. The stretch kept them moving freely and not gathering below the waist like mil-spec BDU pants tend to do.
The velcro stays on the pockets kept everything flush and non-bagged through repeated washings. They have stayed way crispier than a pair of Rothcos. They have ties in the cuffs that I just cut out and the seams where they were are not noticeable. While light and flexible, the material held up to a couple of slams. However they are still probably a little too thin to wear on a construction job site.
The only drawbacks are the retail price and I know not everyone loves Nike. They go on sale all the time if you are interested. I am looking to pick up another pair in black.

Yup Artformdoes better price usually than direct from Rothco. Once I realized artform was Rothco cargos I looked into it and artform does good sales still that make them $30/35 sometimes and they seem like a cool skate team to support.
No comply skate shop also has their own branded Rothco but that are more expensive than other people who sell them.

Go on www.polarskateco.com and look at the fit charts. It gives you a breakdown of the fit and you can compare. I think 93 jeans have a similar fit to 874 dickies, but a little looser. Big boys are real wide and taper in a bit.

on the 93 denim would you go regular size (usually i am a 32 or 33 width) or size up like i do in dickies 874 (i go 33 usually) or full size up like i do in 873 (34 width usually)?

thanks a lot for the info, will definetly do that!
since we talk loose fit pants though:
I got some Carhartt WIP DALLAS Pants. Went TTS on those so i got em in a 33 waist. fit a lil loose around the waist now but i like that. they come on the shorter side lenght wise but seem to be as wide as 874 dieckies- i'd say if you get a 33 width it is by 30 lenght- pretty perfect for dunk highs look wise i gotta say!
Fabric is softer and lighter than the Flex dickies but seem to be robust still. If we can ever go outside again and play our wooden toy i will report back

Can anybody tell me the difference between the polar 93 and the polar big boy pants? I want to treat myself to one of these but I can´t try it on for obvious reasons. I want baggy but not to baggy. Have the 90s pants at home and I like them a lot.
93's are the less baggy option, although both are very loose.
I bought a 34 in the 93's but for some reason they fit like a 38-40 waist.
May have been a mistake but got them tailored and they fit great.

Loved the Fourstar Carroll chinos, haven't found anything that's comparable yet.

Levis skate carpenter pants. Baggy, tough fabric with a little of stretch and triple stiching in a lot of places. They are great.

Maybe the greatest chino ever?

Thinking about buying the Spanky RVCA chinos- anyone try those out?
-
Fourstar Carroll Chinos are great pants but I would not call them loose fit, at least not the pair I got. Slim Straight for sure. For skating, I got so lucky one day at the Goodwill I found two pairs of huge cargo pants with ankle cinches and waist gaiters on the same rack. A pair of 2XL cargos by Outfitters Ridge hunting gear in Realtree camo and a pair of authentic Army surplus BDU cargos in Woodland camo, in size 3XL but shrunk and vintage they fit the same as the Realtrees. They fit baggy as fuck but that's what I like to skate in, with a stretchy rubberized belt that can buckle anywhere is the perfect set up for me. Thin vulc shoes, goofy boy baggy cargos cinched up at the ankles and an elastic belt is absolutely ideal for me to go screw around in. I think I'll go have an isolated sesh this evening

If you can find discontinued Old Navy extra loose on ebay those are cut great. I have like 6 pairs I horded.

I like Wrangler Cargos recently (relaxed fit). Nice twill pants that fit perfectly loose, and only 25$ on amazon.
This is the most underrated comment on here. I bought a pair from walmart awhile back and they are the most comfortable pants! I hate that I'm rocking cargos all the time and wish they didn't have those stupid extra pockets, but nothing compares. Great fit, great movement, great price. You don't feel bad fucking them up.
I always wear holes in my pant leg above my front foot from my griptape. Bums me out, but oh well. It's apparently just the way I skate.

Damn these look nice, and they come in multiple colors and got a size 29 waist? That's super rare. I have no hips and finding pants that fit without a belt is very very hard. I don't need pants right now but I'm saving these for the future.
Carhartt used to make these twill work pants that looked and felt similar to Dickies 874, but are way more comfy and durable. I got a pair about two years ago and wear them a ton, and they're still holding strong. They're hard to find now but I definitely recommend if you can locate your size.

I'm intrigued by WIP but I live in a small city so I never get to see the stuff in person. I do love regular old carhartt clothing though. Is the sizing the same? I wear an XL in other brand t shirts but somehow the Carhartt M 100% cotton pocket t shirt is perfect on me.
Carhartt runs pretty big but the WIP stuff is a bit more normal fitting. I got a jacket from them in a L which is my normal size and it fits perfect

These are the thrifted cargo pants I mentioned I've been skating in. Fuckin massive with huge leg openings, most of my pants for work and school are slim leg with 8" or 9" across the front of the hem but I need parachute pants to skate. I don't feel comfortable trying to pop high unless my legs are covered in something you could cut a jib out of and go sailing the high seas with.

So I became a recent convert to these:
https://deviumusa.com/collections/bottoms/products/toiler-chino-pant?variant=21871543582838
They're really well made, and very generously cut, without being too gangster baggy. They're long too. I'm 6'4 and they go all the way to my heels. They are kinda expensive, but you do get what you pay for.

I'm a 34 in most brands, which is right on the cusp of the medium and Large size for Rothcos. With my Rothcos the overall cut on medium and large is identical, the waist is just cinched in more on the mediums. I wear the large because they mediums are just a little tight in the waist.
Proper are a little more generous. A medium fits me exactly as a 34 would in the waist, and the legs are a bit wider overall.
Hope that helps!

I have a brown pair of 67s. The waist is a little lower and the amount of stretch in them allows for tts. They also don’t shrink like crazy in the way standard Dickies will.

Thanks for the input folks, going to try them TTS.
IDK if Levi's discontinued the skate work pants but they seem to be scarce and I need a new go-to chino.

Galls.com has some Rothco-like options and some more tech pants. Their ripstop is pretty lightweight. It's all relatively cheap, too.

The Levi skate chino was really well made, overbuilt even.
Every person in my life my age thinks I look dumb in dickies 874s. So I feel you on the not super baggy. I’ve given up on pants that I look appropriate in vs pants to skate in.
I should just wear rothco’s and Jordan’s and be done with it.

Honestly most of the pairs I have I'm fine with. I don't really like my pants THAT baggy and most of them are pretty straight with a taper. Like some are a little more slim than the others, but I specifically have a navy blue pair in the same size as the others that are too tight to skate in comfortably. For what it's worth the couple duplicate pairs I have of the same color fit pretty much the same. But like if you saw me wear my brown ones, my navy ones and my khaki ones they would all look like completely different pants, haha.

When you put it like that, I guess It's not too surprising. Levi's has done that same thing forever with their Jeans. Even with the nicer skate-branded 501s, the fit varies with the color.

Looks good, but I’m afraid they may be TOO loose. I don’t want to look like goofy boy. I just want comfy pants.
I've got a pair of the XL khaki ones that I recently dyed green. They're very similar to XL Polar surf pants, but a tiny bit slightly roomier in the thigh area, and the leg opening is a bit smaller so theres a hair more taper in the vans ones. Overall I prefer the surf pants fit, but they're almost the same, in fact they're so similar I'd say using the dimensions here as reference should be fine: https://usa.polarskateco.com/collections/pants/products/surf-pants-new-navy-1, just take off about half an inch from the "1/2 bottom leg" measurement

Volcom loosie thrifter pants kinda fit that bill but are cropped sorta
Vans embarcadero are also comfy and good for skating and taper decently
Domestics chinos are awesome
Cintas comfort pants
I really need to try some domestics pants.
How do domestic pants fit? I saw a few comments from a few years back saying they fit like dickies/definitely aren't that loose. A few pants on their site look quite good.
One of my locals has them and is doing curbside, considering going to pick up a pair this week and will report back.

Thanks for the feedback! I’m liking the Embarcadero pant better, because they look more like a the fabric they use for chinos. Do the Embarcadero pant have a drawstring? I’m assuming so, since they have the elastic waistband.

Yes there's a drawstring. I like the material on both, though I'd probably give the edge to surf pants as they're a little bit more comfortable. Surf pants are cotton and I've had several pairs over the years and they've all lasted super long and been amazing to skate and chill in. I haven't actually worn the vans ones thaaat much so can't attest to durability but the quality feels great and I'm sure they'll be good.
Looking side by side, it seems like the threads are a little finer on the vans ones than the polar surf pants. Both are super thin and perfect for summer and great for spring/autumn too, just probably a bit thin for super cold winter sessions where denim would be more appropriate.

Domestics is just a sick company.
I really need to be more mindful about spending money with a company like that, or DOA, instead of getting so hyper focused about minute details and then just buying the same old from wack big companies

I really love Domestics also. I’ve never had anything from them, and always forget about them somehow. I think it’s because I try not to buy pants, because I have so many pairs. I really shouldn’t be on this thread.

What size do you wear in regular pants to convert to XL in the surf pants/Embarcadero pants? I've been in a toss-up between both, and I'm not sure about size. I know Polar posted measurements of the surf pants, but neither brand has a size conversion chart (i.e. 'if you wear size 36, buy size Large in these').

Why do you need a chart? There's no size standard, in other words, a 36 in Levis might fit smaller then 36 Polar.
And Polar does have a chart with measurments... Ez

I'm 6 5 with a true waist of 34, but I always size up to 36 ish give or take otherwise most pants are pretty slim on me. Depends on the pant lol

I get that the same size would be different across two brands, but if they're following the numerical sizing format, you can at least take an educated guess. The S/M/L/XL format is a little more vague. The chart on the Polar site says L is 22" across the waist and XL is 23", but that would convert to sizes 44 and 46 in numerical sizes. I know they're made to fit loose, but those are full on big & tall store sizes - I don't think someone with a 44 inch waist would fit comfortably in size L Polar pants.
I'm 6 5 with a true waist of 34, but I always size up to 36 ish give or take otherwise most pants are pretty slim on me. Depends on the pant lol

I didn't have the patience to read through the whole thread so forgive me if these have already been mentioned... I find the top 3 in my opinion would have to be Levis 550, Levis Silvertab Baggy fit, and Polar Big Boys. Big Boys are very pricey but have an unmatched fit. Silvertabs can be hard to find, but you could find some on depop for around 50 bucks. 550s are everywhere, a crisp black pair of 550s is godly.

I copped a pair of these in red and just got them today. They're nice and loose, high waisted, and made out of a lightweight fabric that seems like it'll be nice for hot summer days. I would imagine that they're a little similar to the Polar surf pants or the Vans embarcadero pants, but maybe less tapered and more cropped. I'd recommend them for sure.

they are wide and they stretch, they kind of look like the wide dickies. The do seem pretty thin, though. Let's see what happens when I first bail in them.

I got a similar pair from uniqlo with the same fit, they were heavier weight and had pleats. I had a last minute courthouse wedding to go and had to find something super fast. They're a little too "goofy boy" for me personally but the quality was surprisingly very good.
Edit I actually found them, if you're into this type of fit check them out they're very affordable.

nah it's not cropped at all. i'm 6"2' and these were surprisingly baggy(and long, it also doesn't stack good on top of ur shoes so it swallows it/had to cuff a couple)! even if it sits at waist. i got a size L on them too, i wish they were somewhat tapered on the bottom like the surf pants but for the price that you can get them at. It's pretty much a steal. when shit clears i'll take it to tailor and have it hemmed/tapered like the surf pants.
However the Men's "U" Work Utility Pants fit like Carhartt's Double Knee Front Work Dungaree's. More roomier and baggy on the thigh and through the legs. It depends on the waist size that you get them tho.

What size do you wear in regular pants to convert to XL in the surf pants/Embarcadero pants? I've been in a toss-up between both, and I'm not sure about size. I know Polar posted measurements of the surf pants, but neither brand has a size conversion chart (i.e. 'if you wear size 36, buy size Large in these').
I'm 6 5 with a true waist of 34, but I always size up to 36 ish give or take otherwise most pants are pretty slim on me. Depends on the pant lol
Went with the surf pants based on this sizing discussion. I got XL's. I'm 6' and wear 36 in most pants, or 38 in Dickies. They fit comfortably in the waist and loose in the legs. My legs are pretty thicc, so pants always fit a little slimmer on me than they were intended to - they'll be pretty baggy if you have chicken legs. With the drawstring, I'd say XL surf pants would probably fit someone who wears between 34 and 38 in regular pants. Inseam feels 32-ish. The rise is maybe 1-2 inches little lower than Dickies 874's (which is fine, but I wouldn't call them 'high waisted'). The taper below the knee is noticeable but not excessive - if the Vans Embarcaderos do taper more than these, they might be a bit MC Hammer-ish. They aren't cheap, but they seem pretty well made, and if you have a good local skate shop, now is a good time to show them love.

The rise is maybe 1-2 inches little lower than Dickies 874's (which is fine, but I wouldn't call them 'high waisted'). The taper below the knee is noticeable but not excessive - if the Vans Embarcaderos do taper more than these, they might be a bit MC Hammer-ish. They aren't cheap, but they seem pretty well made, and if you have a good local skate shop, now is a good time to show them love.
The Vans ones taper just a tiny bit more but the main difference is the leg opening is a tiny bit smaller. I skate jordan 1s and notice that that the vans pants will stack on top of the hi top shoe a little more often than the surf pants do (which they still do) due to the leg opening difference. This exaggerates the tapering effect. But besides that, when standing straight, you can barely tell the difference.
Though I have one or two clips of the vans pants where they stacked on top of my shoe and as I bend down to pop the thigh area looks even bigger and there's definitely a slight MC hammer vibe going lol... but thats the worst case scenario. 90% of the time they're pretty much the same as surf pants, which in the worst case angle/position also have that kinda look to a lesser extent.

Anybody know what the deal is with these?
https://www.vans.com/shop/embarcadero-pant-military-khaki?variationId=Military%20Khaki#hero=2
Looks good, but I’m afraid they may be TOO loose. I don’t want to look like goofy boy. I just want comfy pants.
I've got a pair of the XL khaki ones that I recently dyed green. They're very similar to XL Polar surf pants, but a tiny bit slightly roomier in the thigh area, and the leg opening is a bit smaller so theres a hair more taper in the vans ones. Overall I prefer the surf pants fit, but they're almost the same, in fact they're so similar I'd say using the dimensions here as reference should be fine: https://usa.polarskateco.com/collections/pants/products/surf-pants-new-navy-1, just take off about half an inch from the "1/2 bottom leg" measurement
I returned these after showing my wife and she told me I looked like the Monopoly man.
I’m gonna pull the trigger and get ready to look sophisticated. I’ll make the return if I have to. Fuck it.

I copped a pair of these in red and just got them today. They're nice and loose, high waisted, and made out of a lightweight fabric that seems like it'll be nice for hot summer days. I would imagine that they're a little similar to the Polar surf pants or the Vans embarcadero pants, but maybe less tapered and more cropped. I'd recommend them for sure.
Look a bit too cropped for me, and knowing that its uniqlo I doubt the thigh room compares to surf pants but it could work great for some people
nah it's not cropped at all. i'm 6"2' and these were surprisingly baggy(and long, it also doesn't stack good on top of ur shoes so it swallows it/had to cuff a couple)! even if it sits at waist. i got a size L on them too, i wish they were somewhat tapered on the bottom like the surf pants but for the price that you can get them at. It's pretty much a steal. when shit clears i'll take it to tailor and have it hemmed/tapered like the surf pants.
However the Men's "U" Work Utility Pants fit like Carhartt's Double Knee Front Work Dungaree's. More roomier and baggy on the thigh and through the legs. It depends on the waist size that you get them tho.
I'm around that range so it doesn't feel too snug on the waist. this has drawstrings and a button clasp with zipper too. basically a hybrid jogger/chino but wider fit and no bottom stretchy cuffs. they're pretty long and baggy if they're not tailored or only if you go above ur regular size. i think if i had went with a medium it would've been perfect for me as far as length go. They're a little MC Hammer'ish depending on what shoe you got on. Cuffing them helps a little but i wanna get them hemmed an inch and get it tapered somewhat.

vans chino glide arrived and skated in them quick and got a sweat going but the nylon liner thing feels a bit weird, like more hot than it should have been in 60 degree weather. is that normal? maybe wash them first?

they will shrink a small bit if you wash them (in warm water at least), but it doesn't change how they feel in the way you're asking about
i personally don't have an overheating problem with them, they're basically my favorite pants as far as fit

Got some Polar 93's today. Holy smokes they are baggy. 34/34 size.
As expected, they are too big in the waist, but the length was good, which is my usual struggle. I wish they came in 32/34 tho. That would have been perfect!

My Vans Embarcadero pants came in today, and they do not disappoint.
Inseam is perfect. I didn’t have to roll them up. Very comfy and not too loose at all.
Gotta get them in Black now. And I’m wanting to try some Polar Surf Pants now. Haha
If anyone had any questions about sizing, let me know.

I bought this double knee pair of rei pants that I’ve been super happy with. I definitely have chicken legs and even at 6’3 874’s look huge on me personally. Definitely not a baggy fit pant but good if you got noodle gams.

Oh and a friend has the altamont Ryan lay pants and loves them so that’s another for the list
Dome pants are awesome, but I would not considered them to be the least bit loose fitting.

They definitely don’t feel as heavy duty as carhartt but I wouldn’t be afraid to slam in them. I think on the website it says they would make good rock climbing pants. Also glad to hear domestics aren’t terribly baggy, been eyeing some up for a bit.

First off, they’re not chinos. They’re cut like jeans. They have a slim/straight fit. Aren’t stretchy, and can fit inconsistently pair to pair. They also feel pretty fragile. They use really soft, comfy materials. I never skated in any pair I’ve had.

I know they're not the loosest fit, but anyone skate dickies 67 work pants? I need to know if the waist is true to size or if you need to go up one like on the 874s.
idk about the work pant but I have the '67 slim straights and as much as I love them, the fit really varies with the color. I have a bunch of pairs and some are kinda baggy and a couple are almost skinny.
Dickies has the worst QC, their auditors must just be like "yup those are pants, PASS!". No two pairs of Dickies fit the same, they're like fucking snow flakes or finger prints no two alike.
Honestly most of the pairs I have I'm fine with. I don't really like my pants THAT baggy and most of them are pretty straight with a taper. Like some are a little more slim than the others, but I specifically have a navy blue pair in the same size as the others that are too tight to skate in comfortably. For what it's worth the couple duplicate pairs I have of the same color fit pretty much the same. But like if you saw me wear my brown ones, my navy ones and my khaki ones they would all look like completely different pants, haha.
This thread inspired me to order a pair of 874s in navy and they're great. I got the FLEX ones cuz I think that's what the '67s use for their skate line. They feel great.

I wear 36 in most normal pants (or 38 in Dickies 874's) and find XL to be a comfortable, loose fit. I think I could fit in L's if I lost a few pounds, so you should be good in L.

Tryna buy those domestics x Al Davis pants... wondering if anyone can tell me if the waist is true to size or should I go up one?

can't wear pants that don't have room anymore. usually wear a 32x32 in all my pants, my waist is probably a 30 though.
for surf pants the large fits best for me, the mediums were just a tad too short but I only wear those around the house anyway, they look fucking stupid with blazer mids for me. larges go great with all my shoes and stuff and you can cuff them if they're a little too long.
usually for skating I go back and forth between regular Carhartt pants you get at dicks, and dickies stretch 874, got a pair of dickies LP810s that look fucking stupid but are nice and thin and breezy for summer, the surf pants seem perfect for skating but at like 70 bucks I'm not doing anything other than slashing curbs in them when you can get LP810s for like 8 bucks at goodwill or stretch dickies for 30 bucks online.

Try the polar 90s! You can usually find them on Depop in great condition for under $60 (if you dont mind second hand jeans)
Im also a 30x30 and think the sizing is pretty true in the waist on them. They’re definitely a higher rise than Levi’s though.

Just get those powder boxes of rit dye and some rit color stay dye fixitive to prevent bleeding and fading. The bottles work too but I've heard anecdotally that the powder is better.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wL6NFLL8NI0&t=53s
Just follow these instructions, though I'd recommend you leave it in for at least 30 mins, probably closer to an hour if you have the patience just to get it to really soak in. The final colour will be a lot lighter after soaking and your initial wash and then the pants finally drying.
It'll be easier to get it to black as opposed to the perfect shade of navy. But in my experience (with another pair of much thicker pants) its quite hard to get them pitch black, you can get very close though.

I’m with you. I once bought some bigboys from the web (they were like half the price) and even in my regular size I felt like I was wearing some JNCO’s. Shit looked so ridiculous on me. I ended up selling them to a friend of mine that is not as skinny as me so they look fine on him.
Other friend of mine got some Polar 93’s the other day and those look like a much more reasonable fit to me. Might try to find a pair on sale.

It'll be easier to get it to black as opposed to the perfect shade of navy. But in my experience (with another pair of much thicker pants) its quite hard to get them pitch black, you can get very close though.
Awesome, thanks a lot for the tips and video, that’s super helpful! I got the dye and fixative a couple days ago so I’ll try it over the weekend!
My girl friend and I got heavy into dying stuff during lockdown. Its really sick to take your old white tees and make them wearable again. Definitely inspires me to buy less

Vans embarcadero pants are my current favorites (Polar surf pants close second) and are on sale at the moment. They do an extra 30% off if you are signed up for their email I think

Good looks! ordered a pair and super digging the fit! I may just order another pair of these.I wish they had them in Navy.
No problem! For sure, Navy would be awesome. I already had one pair of black from eBay and grabbed three pairs of green from this sale. The color isn’t for me but I figured they were cheap and I don’t think it will be too hard to dye them
I dyed the khaki ones into an army green ish and it worked out great, the green ish ones can probably be dyed black or navy or a dark green.
Nice! For sure, I was going to dye them black but you got me thinking about Navy now. May give that a shot
I just grabbed some Rit as I’m fairly new to dying stuff and it seemed easy enough to use
Just get those powder boxes of rit dye and some rit color stay dye fixitive to prevent bleeding and fading. The bottles work too but I've heard anecdotally that the powder is better.

Dang, that’s a good idea! Didn’t even think of dying other clothing items. My only experience dying stuff was about ten years ago, dying some fabrics for martial arts belts I used to make
-
man this beings me back to...I think 90? Where I found a rack of Girbauds at a discount store...$40 a pair.... I bought three pairs....and over the next year or so, bleached and rit dyed them.
Pretty sure the Girbauds were the prototype for a bunch of skate jeans, they had the little loop for the belt.

surf pants are super lightweight. Their canvas pants options Im sure are pretty light too.
Slimmest to baggiest out of those options:
90s, 93s/surf pants, big boys.
Surf pants vs 93s depends on what size you get specifically, they fit a bit different. Surf pants have a lot of thigh room but taper a good amount down at the leg opening, 93s taper too but it looks straighter. They have size charts on their site if you want to compare the details.
-
thanks alot man
-
Polar's size chart is very legit too. Compared to many other brands who's sizes are all over the place
-
also worth noting on the polar pants, In my experience the light wash version of each jean is slightly bigger then the other colors. Not sure why this is but Ive had 2 pairs of light wash big boys and one pair of 93 and compared to other colors of their respective jeans they all fit noticably bigger
-
I ordered a pair of Surf Cords. Size XL, it says 42cm waist, which is rather narrow for XL?
Oh well... Perfect for me :D Even Polar 32 is a little too big for me in the waist.

I’m 5”10 and wear 32x32 pants, larges fit me pretty perfect. Mediums are a tad short, but not too short.

Their size chart says 30 inseam for size L, but the inseam measurement starts at the crotch, and the cut of them is pretty high-waisted, so it would depend on how you wear them. They'll only actually fit like a 30 inseam if you pull them up near your belly button. I have them in XL, and would say they fit a little longer than the chart says because of the long rise (the distance from the waistband to the crotch). You should be fine in the L's unless you plan to wear them pulled up pretty high.
-
Inseam + Crotch = Pants length, roughly.
So a size L Surf pants is 31" in length

Most definitely not, 93s are definitely much baggier than 90s. Unless the fit has drastically changed in the last few seasons which I doubt it has.

I got a pair of Surf Cords in dark navy. Most comfy pants for sure! However, I do have some worries about durability. I did take a slam without getting a hole, but cords tends to easly become bad looking.

Polar stuff is made to a higher quality and aren't made in China. My surf pants are from Poland.
Those vans pants look like raver 90's pants and are probably made in Taiwan.
If you like them just get them if you have money, although I've had issues with Vans pants being too slim in the past.

I am surprised I don't see more people skating in Uniqlo U pants/jeans, it the cheat code. I've got a super thick pair of work pants and then a pair that are a work pant silhouette but are jersey/sweat pants material that are super comfy.

they are wide and they stretch, they kind of look like the wide dickies. The do seem pretty thin, though. Let's see what happens when I first bail in them.
They turned out to be pretty good quality. I am still skating them and so far there's not a single hole in them.

Been on the hunt for some good baggy jeans to skate other than Polar.
I got some Levi’s skate Baggy jeans last week. https://www.skatedeluxe.com/en/levi-s-skate-baggy-jeans-jackson_p131905 Bought my TTS and although they are cool, I feel like they could live with a bit more space at the waist. They also feel quite thick and not that flexible (they do say it has spandex, but not super noticeable), I think it’s mainly because they put double layered back pockets in the skate range pants, makes them really stiff.
Yesterday went to my local and ended up getting some Carhartt Simple pants and the first impressions are really positive. https://www.skatedeluxe.com/en/carhartt-wip-simple-pant-norco-jeans-blue-worn-bleached_p125974 They are wide, not too thick, and have a high rise waist that gives it a more generous range of movement. Looking forward to wear them out but I’ve been on shorts life for the last 2 weeks or so. Too hot for pants.

Went with three pairs, black, white and grey.
Quality - lightweight material, quite thin. not the best but for £35 it’s as good as expected. Made in pakistan. The stitching was a little hit or miss. On one pair there were obvious mistakes where the stitching was undid and redone. The biggest bummer was on the grey pair (the only ones I opened) there was some markings , one that looked like residue from a sticker, the other was a faint logo looking imprint up and down both legs which ive tried to show in the pics.
Sizing - Im heavy. 230, 5’10. Size XL (the biggest they do) is 34-36. These did not fit me at all. If I even gently bent over I would have torn these in two. With that said, thats a me problem not a them problem. I would not buy these if you are over a 34.
Ive sent these back for a refund now but if I wasnt so thicc & they fit me I’d he hyped on them honestly.

is there inseam/crotch area reinforced or double stitched? thats my biggest need in a skate pant

Whoever was shilling the Ben Davis pants probably turned off the thread to them but they're my favorite pants to skate in when weather permits.
Too thick for summer wear in most places though.

Anyone able to recommend pants similar in fit and material to the Levi's Skate work pants?

Philly Santosuosso doing a denim colab with Butter Goods. The cargoes they did were great and seriously baggy. Interested to see how these come out.
Some good stuff from his timeline on these.

new rule if you can take your pants off without taking your shoes off, they too baggy.

That's not it.

Dickie's loose fit cargo pants are dope.

Izod relaxed fit are just baggy enough. I work in them and then go skate in them.

I like my pants like I like my men: loose with shredded bottoms and shoestrings holding them together.

Anchor Blue "BAGGY" Jeans are the move.

501 fit, with slight taper, will always look good. Its just facts. Skinny, or even slim, doesnt look good on everyone.
I've gone baggier aswell, tho only Polar '93 and surf pants. 100% more comfy to skate with then slim jeans, which I used to skate.

Nah, they don't look bootcut or anything.
But, I have a long torso and short legs so I always cuff my mine and it works out well and looks good enough.
Sidenote I got 12 pairs of work pants at my job a few months ago (through cintas) and they are the best pants I've ever skated in, hella breathable material look like Dickies cargos but breath so much better and wick moisture so you don't have hella swamp ass post session.
Fixing to quit this job today but keeping these God damn pants.

can anyone speak on recent polar 93 denim fit? I dont want big boys but levi 550 aint cutting it

They fit a lot like 550 with more of a taper- more thigh room and smaller leg opening.

straight up how do I get that Hamilton Harris look from Mixtape

When I go for my nostalgia fit, closest I can get is 550 but up a size or 2 on the waist

They're not the same, but I recently found a pair of their pleated denim chino they did awhile ago and they feel really great. If the denim on the baggy 5 pockets feel at all similar than they're a great pair of pants.

Anyone tried the Levis skateboarding baggy 5 pocket, or Highland chinos/cords?
I have a pair of the baggy 5 pocket jeans. The material is pretty heavyweight, so I only break them out during the winter. They fit kinda like surf pants without any taper at all below the knees, so the leg opening is wide. Got a 30 inseam but the pair I have feels a little shorter than my other pair of 30 inseam levis.
-
Anyone tried the Levis skateboarding baggy 5 pocket, or Highland chinos/cords?
highland cords look great, but i need some sort of review first on durability before i'd take the plunge for that price. i usually blow the ass out of my cords or they do this thing were they get transparent. but i saw these are even double kneed and the cord seems thick so they might be good for the winter.
-
Gonna throw out there I just got some Levis 541 Athletic fit denim.
They're tapered more than 550's, but the upper legs are looser for people with big butts and thighs.
For me, they're nice because they look baggier, but the leg opening is not as big so my pants never go over the tongue of my shoe minimizing the baggy raver effect.
I usually go 32's, but got 34's and think you should at least size up a bit to account for the tapered legs if you're going for baggy.

I cannot talk about the cords but I have a pair of the carpenter and 2 work pants, both of the skate line and they are great durability speaking. Also both on the heavier side. I would give cords a try, look on eBay, I used to see them around 20 bucks.

they don't make them anymore, but if you can find a a pair of the polar chino's , they were an inbetween of the polar bigboys and 93's for anyone looking for something like that.

yeah i bought a pair of their carpenters like two years ago when they were on a mad sale, they're really sturdy, i cut them down though into carpenter jorts. i probably wouldn't skate those pants anyways, so i might actually not blow them out this time. thinking more of these or some carhartts with flannel inside as winter pants. unless i stock up on thermal underwear.

looking for lightweight, tapered, loose fit pants. something a la polar surf pants I guess. I have some slim taper dickies I like but they’re a lil hot and don’t stretch for big meals. any rec’s?

I have a pair of 541s and really like them, but getting them true to size is definitely close to a slim straight fit. At least mine are. A lot of my Levi's are pretty inconsistent.

They now have some weird hemp baggy or loose fits but the denim looks weird.....it's funny how by the end of the 90's dudes were buying girls jeans to get them tight....I'm eyeballing girls jeans right now just wondering.....I'm guessing by the end of this year there will be more options.

I’m a 32” waist and so are the pants, no need to size up for them to be baggy, unless you want even bigger! They’re quite high waisted, but it gives a bit of room to wear them higher or lower depending if you want them slouchy or not!

Army Navy stores are the only places I can think of. I’ve had pairs of the originals, and of the current knock-offs, and the originals fabric is so much of a nicer quality and lasts much longer. It’s got a bit of a sheen to it, the replicas all pill.
Good luck.

They're really nice, I went down a half size as some people had said they ran big but I wish I just went with my true size 10 instead, I think I'd love them even more had I done that. The tongue isn't as puffy as the accel og or the scheme they re-released, so that's a plus as well. Not a lot of board feel but honestly I prefer the puff and support. After so many vulcs and trying different brands, I think I'm just gonna stick with the eS re-releases for now on.

Balloon fit is kinda... difficult to find. Just look for a tapered jean, or get make a tailor taper them for you. Its not too expensive.
Carhartt Newel is the most balloon like pair I have, but they are not very baggy per say.

I know theyve been mentioned in here a lot of times but Levis silvertab baggy may be the best for that, Can usually find em pretty cheap on depop/ebay/poshmark etc. Id go with your true waist size on those as theyre already pretty baggy to begin with.

I hear you, thanks.. It's hard, cause tapered pants are usually not that relaxed in the thighs so it just comes off as slim or "carrot fit". I'll keep lookin, I might get the carhartt double knees anyway..

Silvertabs are tapered if that might help.

Well I went in blind on these Levis engineered baggy tapered....and theyre odd. For fuction theyre perfect for skating as roomy where you need it and tapered so no drag, and theyre flexy as well and great strong material. But the seam in the middle of the sneakers twisting awkwardly, one back pocket, and overall fit seems off. I am a levis low loose guy, polar surfpants, older silvertabs. Maybe you may be and theyre on sale down from $100 to $48...but I just cant get used to that seam in the front

Yeah I had those too, but in a much darker wash so I didn't notice the twisty seam until a few wears in. Was pretty hyped on the fit at first but then it started to bother me, probably didn't help that my pair was a bit on the short end for me too.

Maybe you may be and theyre on sale down from $100 to $48...but I just cant get used to that seam in the front
https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/apparel/clothing/bottoms/levis-engineered-jeans-570-baggy-taper-jeans/p/72. 7770009
Yeah I had those too, but in a much darker wash so I didn't notice the twisty seam until a few wears in. Was pretty hyped on the fit at first but then it started to bother me, probably didn't help that my pair was a bit on the short end for me too.
Yeah. I have the dark dark blue wash ones too. The cuff, if you cuff, makes the seam very visible. Just looks weird with the cuff seam in the middle of my feet and theyre fine if you dont mind that, just a lil weird design and not my best looking jeans but the design is great for skating with the extra area on top, flex material and taper. I may just skate in these since I wore them for a few sessions.

Balloon fit is kinda... difficult to find. Just look for a tapered jean, or get make a tailor taper them for you. Its not too expensive.
Carhartt Newel is the most balloon like pair I have, but they are not very baggy per say.
Argubly the safest & best fitting jean for most people.
I hear you, thanks.. It's hard, cause tapered pants are usually not that relaxed in the thighs so it just comes off as slim or "carrot fit". I'll keep lookin, I might get the carhartt double knees anyway..
just saying, carhartt double knees are kind of wack to skate in imo. bought em for work mainly, but of course went skating with them to style on everyone. they look great, but unless they are 5 years old, they are too thick and stiff to skate in. maybe good for the winter. one thing that straight sucks is that the rivets will fuck your leg up when you slam.
ben davis gorilla cut is obnoxiously baggy, like raver-, i can't see my shoes, where the fuck are my feet?-baggy. seriously, i bought a pair on a whim because they were going for a tenner and i could barely see the tip of my shoes. cut em into shorts.
al davis skates carhartt carpenters for sure, the regular denim might be a bit softer than the duck material on the double knee pant. i'm talking workwear here, not w.i.p. forgot the double knee item no. (b-51?)

How do the original 874s compare to the flex 874s as far as fit and quality? Dickies tend to pill rather quick.

Really baggy / loose denim
That's the one Simon Bannerot is rocking all the time

Thanks for the input. You got the duck canvas ones though? I like my shit ttthick but I can't imagine skating in that material, you can seriously get dragged behind a car for 6 miles without them ripping... The denim ones look like they have a lot more mobility, too bad I can't see them in store anywhere.
And yea, workwear line is the way to go for Carhartt. I heard Edwin Jeans has the license for WIP (but not 100% sure) and its overpriced trash nowadays.

yeah, it's the unwashed duck double knee.
crazy, i thought w.i.p. was it's own thing. not sure if they are related to edwin in my country. have to look into this. some of the w.i.p denim looks really good on websites and people, too, but i'm also not sure if the quality holds up compared to a pair of the workwear stuff. w.i.p used to be pretty good a few years back. back then it was also harder here to find actual carhartt workwear, since carhartt didn't really sell it here. totally different now since w.i.p is also outside of europe you get the whole workwear line without problems here, too. before that you had to look for special workwear shops and those would sometimes only sell to you if you have a job certificate and stuff. so you could often only get carhartt workwear if you'd work in construction or something and your boss could order some. or at least it was hard to find and there was little range to be had. this all changed in the last ten years.
what i heard a long time ago that w.i.p was basically a german dude licensing carhartt designs to sell them as streetwear in germany/europe and it went from there, but i have no idea who owns or runs it now or if it is actually part of carhartt for real.

874 Flex are awful. The fabric looks shiny and cheap, doesn't actually stretch, and shrinks like crazy in the wash. I didn't wear my pair enough to see, but I assume they don't hold up long because they're noticeably thinner than the regular ones.

Im looking at the size chart for the polar ‘93 denim, and it says the waist for a size 30 is 17 inches across. So that means a 30 is a true 34? Seems kinda crazy, do they fit that big in waist?

In most brands, the size on the tag is a couple inches smaller than the actual measurement - it's called 'vanity sizing,' and almost every brand does it. The 93's are made to fit loose, but I would say they also run a little bigger than average. I have them in 36, and they fit more like 38's in the waist, so 30's probably fit like 32's in other brands. I would get your regular size or one size down, depending on how loose you want them to be. If you're unsure, I would say take a tape measure to a pair of pants you like and compare it to the Polar chart.
-
Hey I know this has been asked around but if I wear 36 waist pants with a belt what size should I get with big boys? I’m torn between medium and large.
-
Speaking of Polar 93's, I found a pretty good alternative for people looking for a cheaper option. 'Barrel jeans' from Gap - https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=604867002&pcid=999&vid=1&&searchText=barrel%20jeans#pdp-page-content (https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=604867002&pcid=999&vid=1&&searchText=barrel%20jeans#pdp-page-content). I have both, and the fit is very similar. If you have the 93's, order 1 size up in the waist and the same length. Compared to regular pants, order your regular waist size and 1 size up in the length.

Really sorry if this has been spoken about before, but what are people's thoughts on the big boys? Are they too over the top baggy?
I usually wear a size 34, and can't find a accurate size guide online, would a medium be correct? Cheers!

Unfortunately they only ship to Japan. They’re Uniqlo’s sister company so I hope they make something similar in Uniqlo’s lineup. Luckily bought two pairs before coming back for school. Should’ve bought more though

If have the athletic fits and they are decent...have stretch in them too....strangely the back ones feel tighter.
With the barrels I'd buy the 34 and cuff them or hem them.

Ordered these because they ended up being 20 bucks plus tax. As a member of Team Thiccboi, can confirm they give you room like a 90's skate jean, but fit at the waist. Would say if you wanted extra baggy, go a size up.

After buying Levis 550s over and over on eBay I finally caved and bought some Polar 93s.
(https://i.imgur.com/WCEmFnp.png)
I'm into them, crotch drops a little lower and they stay far straighter throughout than a 550.
I think in the past 93's were overly cropped compared to the advertised length but now fit true to to size. I'm 6' 2" and these 32 30s are just are just the right length for me..maybe a little short for some but nothing too drastic.

I got the stonewash jeans in my usual size. They're slimmer than I expected, and the waist fit a little tighter as well. There was a little too much taper for my liking with the pants stacking on top of most of my shoes vs. fitting over them, which is usually my preference. Overall, they're kinda like a slightly roomier 501.
-

I don’t know about the tapered fit but I’ve been into a Carhartt buying spree pant wise so I’ll give my 2 cents. I got like 4 pairs in less than half a year and been rotating them daily. (I’m usually a 30w/32L for reference)
1 pair of double knees in nylon (30/32).
The collab with PoP trading co, relaxed straight fit with basically no taper. Love the look but a bit too stiff and sweaty for skating IMO. The twill/corduroy is probably better to skate in...
1 pair of master pants in twill (30/32).
To me a best fitting answer to Dickies 574’s and maybe my fav skate pants right now. Relaxed straight fit that tapers a bit under the knee. They broke in super quick and are mad comfortable.
and 2 pairs of Simple pants, one in Light Denim (30/32) and other in Twill (31/32)... I thought they should fit the same, but I found the Twill to feel a bit slimmer, so I got a size up than usual and now they fit and look really similar to the Master pants I got. Actually maybe a tiny bit more tapered at the bottom. The Denim version looks and feels baggier to me dunno why, but I love them like that.
I think I will keep buying Carhartt pants for a while...
-
+1 to you all. Thanks for the feedback. Think I'll go size up on the relaxed tapered but def going to check out the master pant.

just got some of these, and for someone who likes fitted pants with a little extra room, these are great. mine are a little long, so I'll probably cut them and hem them myself if i can figure it out.
also toying around with looser cuts for skating, and just got a pair of the Carhartt Logger Jeans, and they're awesome. lots of room and wide leg opening, without feeling like I have fabric flapping everywhere. got a size up from my usual.

I found some pristine 90's Tommy Jeans at the thrift for $9
They fit so perfect. Nice, roomy, and not stiff like a lot of vintage jeans. They got a nice bit of baggage but fit more like 1995 than 1998. Very excited on these.

Found a good discount on the simple pants online, and thinking about pulling the trigger seeing that the fit sounds similar to the Dickies 574's (which fit me well, but I'd like to get that fit in a little nicer quality/fabric). A big plus on the 874's for me is the high waist/long rise - are the simple pants similar in that way? I usually size up 2" in the waist on Dickies, but I'm assuming the Carhartts would not require that?

I ordered a pair Polar Big Boys size M. I've had the '93s, but sold them duo to being waaaay too big in the waist. I have issues with finding good length duo to my long legs, and Big Boys seems to be longer in length at same waist size.

Whats your waist size? The 36x34 93s fit me good besides being way too big in the waist and I'm contemplating getting some medium big boys. Had some XL big boys and sometimes I felt like I could pull them off but they were honestly ridiculous sometimes lol.
-
Proper waist size is between 30-32, depending on brand. Polar runs big. I'd need a size S in Big Boys, or 28/30 in '93 for it to fit close to not needing a belt. I'm fine with wearing pants too big in the waist, but when its bunching up alot with a belt, its simply not comfy, and looks stupid aswell
-
Carhartt B11. The Newel pant and Simple pant are Carhartt WIP, the streetwear brand of the same name that's half as tuff and three times the price. Can usually find some B11s for real cheap on ebay secondhand, and they're already softened up and preshrunk, so no weird shrinkage issues etc.
Another good one is the Levis Silvertabs. Again, find them cheap secondhand on ebay, as they're a vintage 90s style. Nice and roomy through the thigh, crotch not too low, and a nice even taper so they sit nicely on your shoes. Great for skating. B11's are good too but very straight. If you like highwaters with a slim shoe, B11's will suit you.

From my previous experiences the 574’s don’t fit me TTS which is a 30 waist, I would probably have to go with a 32w to not have my waist too constricted. On the Carhartt ones I have I got a 30waist in the Denim and 31w in the Twill. Tbh I could go with a 30 on both but I felt that the twill was a tad slimmer so I sized up just a bit. Both feel really nice anyway... 👌

Do they taper as much as surf pants? Surf pants are great but I feel like if denim had the same cut as surf pants it would be a little extreme since surf pants have a LOT of thigh room and quite an aggressive taper, at least in XL.
edit: just saw on the website that the 34 waist leg opening is 17 inches which is definitely on the tighter side, taper probably quite aggressive then.

I have been taking the measurements of pants for years, this is basically what I've found as far as how different fits have different size Leg Openings. Here's a rough breakdown of sizes 32" to 38" and the approximate measurements across the front of the bottom hem.
Super Skinny Jeans- 7"
Skinny Jeans- 7.5"
Slim Tapered- 8"
Slim Straight- 8.5" (Levi's 501)
Regular Tapered- 9" (Dickies 874)
Regular Straight- 9.5"
Relaxed Tapered- 10"
Relaxed Straight- 10.5"
Loose Tapered- 11"
Loose Straight- 11.5"
Baggy Fit- 12"

Pretty sure I commented this on Gilbert's Insta but leg opening is the wheelbase of pants.....

But has anyone tried the BEN DAVIS™ pants?
Can’t recommend the Ben Davis original fit enough. More roomy than standard dickies and way better made IMO. They’re only slightly tapered but I find cuffing them helps with that. My favorite pants by far.
-
Dickies Loose fit Cargo pants are my favorite. Even with the waist being a little small on my they are still pretty loose.

Speaking of Polar 93's, I found a pretty good alternative for people looking for a cheaper option. 'Barrel jeans' from Gap - https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=604867002&pcid=999&vid=1&&searchText=barrel%20jeans#pdp-page-content (https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=604867002&pcid=999&vid=1&&searchText=barrel%20jeans#pdp-page-content). I have both, and the fit is very similar. If you have the 93's, order 1 size up in the waist and the same length. Compared to regular pants, order your regular waist size and 1 size up in the length.
yeah got mine in they’re good for the price. I think I should’ve gone longer tho
-
Alrighty! Got my Polar Big Boy's today! Their leg opening is really big, and is a straighter fit compared to the 93's. They also dont have that inner lining that kinda annoys me with 93's. Big Boy's are just pure denim. And they are also longer at the same size, so 10/10 for me with long legs.
I'll take them to the tailor and reduce the leg opening and taper them a little more.

Got some dickies duck canvas carpenter jeans, went one size bigger in the waist and tts for length. Looks like they’ll be great for the colder month. Pretty much perfect fit; not too loose, not too tight

Update: went for a skate in them yesterday and really enjoyed them; not super baggy but they give you enough room to move around in. Probably wouldn’t rock them in summer but they’ll make great pants for the winter. I especially like that they are 100% cotton too as opposed to regular dickies which feel Teri Le when you sweat in them (and collect way too much lint).

Someone mentioned earlier in this thread "Red Kap" brand pants as a Dickies alternative. Dickies is sold out of a ton of stuff on their site it seems, so I couldn't order my usual pants. I ordered the "utility work pants" which are their equivalent to, say...a Dickies 874, but these actually fit way better with a bit more of a loose fit. Made in Mexico and they seem to be of equal quality, if not better with the same poly/cotton blend. Highly recommend to those who want to root for the underdog and try something besides Dickies.

I prefer red kap to dickies. IMO fits better, fabrics thinner and more Durable/comfortable similar pricing and they don’t sit super high on the waist like the 874s. I got a few pairs I’ve had for 3+ years still look great. I bought a pair of dickies double knee flex and the left pocket showed considerable wear from my wedding ring rubbing on it after only 2 wears.

After buying Levis 550s over and over on eBay I finally caved and bought some Polar 93s.
(https://i.imgur.com/WCEmFnp.png)
I'm into them, crotch drops a little lower and they stay far straighter throughout than a 550.
I think in the past 93's were overly cropped compared to the advertised length but now fit true to to size. I'm 6' 2" and these 32 30s are just are just the right length for me..maybe a little short for some but nothing too drastic.
So the 93's are baggiest than 550s so to say? I am not ready to pay 115 euros for a pair of polar jeans so im thinking about copping some Levis 550s on eBay instead for some bucks. Do they fit anything similar? If so, how do they compare in Detail if I size up on the 550s? I usually run about 32 true waste size but thought about buying 36 on the Levis.

yeah, same. i don't really wear my dickies that much in the summer anymore, too hot. been rocking the longjohn/dickies combo in the winter for a few years now.
i'll probably always have a few dickies in rotation but nowadays i'm not about keeping a whole catalogue of colors in my wardrobe. black and brown basically does it for me. my stock is slowly fading as one pair after the other disintegrates on me. i'll probably get some more in the future but would like to see better fabrics, especially organic would be nice.

I wear a small in surf pants and have size medium in the stamp pants.

Anyone have a hard time with Rothco BDU sizing? I love the look of these shits so much but damn I think there's a bunch of variance in sizing from pair to pair.
I'm a 34 waist but when I got the mediums per there size chart they were way too tight at the waist. So I sized up to Large but they're fucking massive. Like, way too big in every dimension.

Anyone got the details on the comparison between Levi 569 and 550? I’ve only had 569 but it seems like 550 is a bit more popular and has taper to it. How much is the taper and if you want it to look baggy do you have to go up a waist size? I’m running my current waist size (34) on 569 and it’s just a little bit baggy not too huge or with a low hanging crotch really

I’m running my current waist size (34) on 569 and it’s just a little bit baggy not too huge or with a low hanging crotch really
at least in europe, depending on when they were made, some 550s also come straight or even in a bootcut.
tapered is what's probably considered the classic cut for the 550 among skaters. they aren't super baggy like big boys, and the taper is so the pant rests more on your shoe than falling behind your heel, if that makes sense. good choice if you wear slimmer vulc shoes that have slim collars but don't want to step on your pantleg ends while having a baggyish look. i personally go up one inch in the waist in all levis, i feel like they run mostly small. if you want them really loose i'd even go up two sizes. i'd try them on though before by all means if you can. levis changes their pants up too much tbh. there's like over a dozen different types of 501s at this point alone, like what's the point.
if you want to look for them on the internet, check that it says tapered (or straight, if you are more into that) and, of course stay away from the bootcut. or not, you do you.
never had 569s so i can't compare, still hope this was somewhat helpful.

What are some good pants if you have a big butt?
I feel your pain brother. My go to's are polar Surfs and 874s 4 sizes up that I take the waist in.
general notes:
~double tuck pants are always gonna have more room in the seat than flat front pants at the same waist circumference
~draw string pants like the surfs are always gonna have more room
~wearing pants at your natural waist when possible will help

A review from the Uniqlo corduroy wide-fit pants
"If you like Polar skate pants or that 90s baggy feel (levi's silver tab), these are an ideal match. These are high waisted so if you want them to sit on your hip, make sure you buy them a little bigger. I'm usually a 30 or 31 so I went up to 33 when 32 wasn't available. While I was recommended the 32, I'm very happy with the 33.
I'm 5'10 and 155 with a slim build and they are a little long when you put them over bulky shoes like Nike SB Blazers. However, cuff 'em like you're Dylan Rieder, but not too high, just one cuff, and you're looking like Carl Aikens out in NYC. (Note* LOOKING, you won't be skating like him, but you'll feel that flow). Highly recommend if you want to be the envy of your friends and end up on the @whatpantsarethose instagram page. What a great fit!"

Probably just has to do with how wide a waist you have. There’s pretty skinny dudes that rock 36s.

~wearing pants at your natural waist when possible will help
Damn I JUST learned this after getting Dickies 874's and Ben Davis Original's in the mail and being so confused trying them on.
When pants (like dickies 874) say they sit AT THE WAIST that means at the natural waist. Which is NOT around your hips. It's way higher -- just below the belly button for most people.
I have shorts, and pants that are supposed to be worn below the waist, that I wear really low, like just above asscrack. This has thrown me off for years, thinking I was supposed to wear Dickies and other high rise pants that way and finding them SO tight in the waist. I was just wearing them too low.
Dickies even threw me off because their 873 sits below the waist, like most other bottoms I wear, so I thought that waist size was going to fit me in the 874 if I wore them that low. They won't, because they're not meant to be worn that low.
Maybe this was obvious to everyone else but I'm literally just now discovering that alot of these pants are made to be worn high as fuck.

A pants/denims rise is very important, and this trend before of a low rise (short distance between groin and top) is terrible. Mid/normal to high rise is superior. For comfort, high rise is the best. Especially if you have a fitter/bigger booty/legs.

I sung some praise on those Red Kap pants being comparible if not better than Dickies. Not so sure, I've had two pairs just randomly rip down the leg seam not even skating. I recently purchased those Vans Authentic Chino Glide Pro pants and these things are amazing. Not too loose of a fit but loose enough for my tree trunk thighs so they still have a relaxed look to them. The inside lining and pockets are like silk.

https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/clothing/men/jeans/stay-loose-cottonized-hemp-mens-jeans/p/290370014
Bought these Levis stay loose as well as some non premium/cottonized hemp ones in a darker wash. They're quite good. I got a 36x32 (I'm a true 34 waist) and they're a bit baggier than 36x34 550s, and a little less baggy than 36x34 Polar 93 jeans. Not sure how they compare to silvertabs.
The taper is pretty noticeable. Thought it was a bit much at first but because they kinda run a bit longer than I expected (my inseam is 34-35 ish and 32 was long enough, though I probably sag them a little more than intended since I sized up) the way they stack on your shoe makes the taper a bit more subtle. So even though I'd like the leg opening to be a tad bigger, it works out quite well in practice.
-
Levi's Stay Loose has 17" leg opening, which if you ask me is pretty much ideal. I actually want to taper my Polar Big Boys down from 20" to 17". Look at Brad Cromer & Trent Mcclung. Perfectly draped pants (They use Levi's 550s, Silvertabs etc).

On their size chart it says the inseam for a 34 is 28.75
Best bet is to probably size up and have them sag down so they reach the bottom

I have both, and the fit is very similar. If you have the 93's, order 1 size up in the waist and the same length. Compared to regular pants, order your regular waist size and 1 size up in the length.
These are $22 with the black friday sale going on now. Anyone else got any opinions on these? Deciding between these or some levi's stay loose jeans.

bought 36x32 and I returned them, weren't long enough for me but I'm tall. probably going to try the 34" length. Button fly is kind of a bummer though. Also it doesn't say much about the "tall" sizing difference?

Speaking of Polar 93's, I found a pretty good alternative for people looking for a cheaper option. 'Barrel jeans' from Gap - https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=604867002&pcid=999&vid=1&&searchText=barrel%20jeans#pdp-page-content (https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=604867002&pcid=999&vid=1&&searchText=barrel%20jeans#pdp-page-content). I have both, and the fit is very similar. If you have the 93's, order 1 size up in the waist and the same length. Compared to regular pants, order your regular waist size and 1 size up in the length.
Literally bought the GAP jeans seconds after seeing this post... Thanks for that!
Hows the thigh room/taper etc compared to other pants? do you have to size up much?

Bought these a while ago and love em. Not quite as roomie as the 93's, but still big. Taper is perfect for me, but I'm short. For 22 bucks, you literally can't go wrong.

How does taper and leg opening compare to 93s? 36x34 93s fit me great, except the waist is too big. 34x34 fit good and true waist but I'd like them to be a little roomier. If I got a 36x34 in these, do you think they'd look more like 36 or 34 93s

Just got my Levi’s 550s in the mail. Really liking the fit with the slight taper. Honestly would not be mad if there was a fit that was still relaxed in the thighs and butt and tapered at the bottom even more kinda like sweatpants style. Still definitely recommend it even more than the 569s. I’m a size 34 waist usually but I got 36 and it would not have fit if I’d gone any smaller

They def taper more than the 93's. If you like em with a little extra room, id go with the 36 waist. Mine Gap jeans fit a little tighter at the waist than my 93's, but just barely, and then the thigh and calves are perfect, and then it tapers. My wife hates em, so I know they're good :D :D :D

Slightly more tapered than the 93's. I have the Gap ones in 38x32 and the 93's in 36x32. I took measurements on both (laid flat on the ground) to compare.
Gap
Waist: 19.5"
Rise: 14"
Inseam: 27.5"
Thigh: 14"
Leg opening: 8"
Polar '93
Waist: 20"
Rise: 13"
Inseam: 28.5"
Thigh: 14"
Leg opening: 9"
I have short legs, so I have to do one roll-up on the cuff on the 93's, but the 32" inseam is just right in the Gap ones. They're not the exact same fit, but very close if you get the sizing right. Definitely go up 2" in the length from what you normally wear. I find the Gap ones a little more comfortable to skate in, probably due to the slightly higher rise. I still like the Polar ones, but I find myself wearing the Gap ones more just because I don't want to worry about wrecking some $100 pants.

Thanks, leg opening sounds a bit small but still manageable, Inseam sounds really short though, perhaps I could have gotten the 36x36. Hopefully won't have to exchange. Thank u!

Yeah, I wear a 30 inseam in most pants. I originally got 30 inseam in the Gap ones, but exchanged them for 32's. The rise is pretty high, though - if you wear them lower on your waist, you may still be good with the 30's.
For me, the rise is the wheelbase of pants. I have a long torso and short legs (I'm 6' tall, but only wear 30" inseams) - a lot of pants fit me like 2003 Britney Spears jeans because the rise is too low.

Anyone familiar with the difference between the dickies 873 and 874 ? I have a few pairs of the 874 but Nothing of the 873, they SEEM similar.
-
874's sit on the waist and 873's sit below the waist. 873's are also slimmer in the thigh. I think the leg opening on the 873's might be slightly smaller?? Not too sure on that
-
873's are definitely slimmer. Not "skinny" or anything, but definitely slimmer than 874s.

I'm generally a 30" waist in most of my pants, but I've been skating in some 34" waist silvertab levis. I ordered some 34x32 Polar 93 jeans from the Atlas Black Friday Sale. Should I expect them to fit similarly to levis I've been skating in or did I get too big of a size (waist plus overall dimensions that go along with it)? not really familiar with the fit of these, but I know that they're not as baggy as the big boys.

Idk how silvertabs fit, but other Levis in 34 fit me ok, do need a belt. 34 in Polar? I can get my whole fist and more between the waist :D

i would recommend taking fabric measuring tape to the waist of those silvertabs while you have em flat on a table. whatever number you get, just use that waist measurement for reference when looking at the 93s’ fit guide

My 36x34 ones arrived, they're super nice and soft and the waist isn't oversized like some other brands, thigh room is perfect too. But given how much it tapers at the leg opening it's a bit too short for my liking. Exchanging them for the 36x36 ones and 99% sure those will be perfect.

Got the same size in today after trying the 32 length and returning. the 34 is definitely better but i probably could've pulled off the 36 length as well. the 36x36 is only listed under "tall" sizing on the product page, i wonder why that is. Considering grabbing them in black though now too.

Yup, the inseam is definitely shorter than advertised, probably because it seems like its meant to be a cropped pant. I got them in black, but note that they're not true black but rather a very very dark indigo (with a very slight teal tint). They definitely look black unless you're staring up close, I quite like the colour.
Its a steal for 22 bucks, I wanted to get the light wash ones there seems to be a bit of artificial fade in the thigh/knee area at the front which I don't like. Is it like that in hand? The black ones have a perfectly even wash.

yeah they do a bit, its not bad and doesn't bother me while being worn, think it might be worse in those pictures, but there's definitely some. I think the fading around the rear pockets is a bit more noticeable. Good to know about the black, that indigo tint sounds good. Did you return your other pair in store? I mailed mine back and haven't heard back shit. I have $20 in gapcash whatever that is and its not good until dec 4 i wonder if these will be the same price

I think the cyber monday deal is ending soon, but who knows they'll probably keep it going for a while like a lot of places. I got my 36x34 in black this morning and dropped them back off at the post office right away after trying them on and got the 36x36. I was happy with the 36x34s, they're good, but the 36x36 will be a bit better.

Any one here have experience getting relaxed fit pants tailored? Just bought the brown theories cosmo pants in a 34. Was hoping they would be closer to 550s but they are massive on me with little taper. Never done it before, so wouldn't even know what to ask for besides shortening the inseam. The pants are great though so would like to have something done so they are wearable.

Go start a taper' pant thread....
I've gone to dry cleaners/tailors for adjustments. It's kinda pricey but can be worth it.

what’s an average price per pair?
And what’s your preferred leg opening? I know crockett recently said a pair of his were 9.25”

The pants are great though so would like to have something done so they are wearable.
ask the trailer to taper. And I’d think you would want to give a measurement of the leg opening for how drastic of a taper you’d want. Or in the past when I’ve had a suit or tux tailored, they’ll pin it to the measurements while on you for a fitting.
-
Go start a taper' pant thread....
I've gone to dry cleaners/tailors for adjustments. It's kinda pricey but can be worth it.
;D I like em loose not MC hammer pants loose. Pants look great so it'll be worth it to get them fitting properly.

Got these two pairs on black friday for 25€ each from Bershka. Not sure if this store exists outside Europe tho.
These are by far the biggest pairs I ever owned. I usually go with 874's but these are a new level of bagginess. Weirdly the black pair is way to tight on my waist.

anyways, I´m thinking of buying those Dickies EDS Scrub pants! anyone ever tried them? They look good on the pictures and seam to be as light and comfortable as the Polar Surf pants. I usually wear size 34 or 36 in waist, should I go with M or L?

I thought large Big Boys would be comparable to 36 Silvertabs, these things are comically large. Wonder if the wash shrinks em up, probably gotta bring em to a tailor if not.

I like them too. Made in Bangladesh which sucks.. just threw mine in the wash for the first time. Will probably hang dry. I got the lightwash but considering going back for the black but with 2” more inseam. They’re more like a washed black?

Not exactly, more like a very dark blue but slight teal tint. From far away, or with light colour shirts they look black. But if you're wearing a black tshirt you can tell these definitely arent a true black. Still good though
-
Got mine.....the wash is just ok....I kinda wanted black. Otherwise they are sick...I'm skinny and 5'9. Sized up to 32 x 34, washed them...one roll and they are good. They are high waisted like an 874 but they sit on my hips...may not wear a belt....perfect. I'd rather they were a bit rougher with stretch but they are nice and soft which should skate just fine. I'll prolly keep an eye out for the same fit.
They aren't super baggy like big boys....
-
even if the pants are baggy and oversized I still like my pants with a little stretch, theres a comfort you cant match when that is the case.
-
Definitely because if you sweat you still have some give. I'm liking jeans this winter over dickies because they are a bit warmer....summer...ill prolly wear something thinner.

If anyone is interested in four pairs of Vans Authentic Chino Glide Pro pants in 38 waist shoot me a PM. They aren’t as stretchy as I thought they would be but overall very durable with a loose fit. I only wore one of the four pairs casually, not skating. Other three have only been laundered, so they’re all basically still new.

Been getting back into Ben Davis. Same size in Ben's is way baggier than Dickies.

nice, i dig vietnam tiger stripe, actually think it's one of the cooler camo patterns. classic bdu pants for me is where it's at. i have this pair i bought second hand at a thrift shop over ten years ago, that pant is the sturdiest piece of clothing i ever had. haven't found another one like this since then, they are all thinner, or rip stop. the one i have is like carharrt carpenter pant thick and seems to be og military stuff.
i got a carhartt wip cargo pant for free once and that one was ok, a little softer, but the second hand one is still miles better. and i cut off the pockets because it had these knoblets to close the pocket and that shit hurt when you fell on it while skating. actually managed to run one of these into my leg once, same thing happened when i was skating in carpenters and had a stud shooting me in the upper leg. shit looks like bullet holes now. not shalom.

i have a bunch of pairs of the dickies scrubs from when I was in Lab tech school, and i liked them a lot. a little baggy for my taste, but this is the loose pants thread, so I think these would be what a lot of people are looking for. I'm a solid 36 and I wore large.

Would you be able to post a pic with the charcoal ones? Any other pants you'd say they're similar or compare to? Good to know they aren't skinny, but my legs fill pants out a lot somehow, so even straight pants tend to look slim on me. Not after anything super baggy, but relaxed is ideal.

Got some Polar Karate pants. XL. They fit is pretty much an XL surf pant with much less taper. Surf pants have a huge amount of thigh room, but the taper makes the manageable, though from certain angles they can look a little bit mc hammer ish.
Karate pants don't have that problem, but because there's much less taper, they look a lot bigger overall. These are a bit much for me, a L would have been better but would have been too short. Possibly gona try tailor it and slim it down by a fingernails width. Good material though and very comfortable. Can't really find any clips of people skating in them unlike other polar pants.

Correct.
Also, and I don’t know this to be the case with Polar, but spending a little bit more, on quality items that have hopefully been made in a more responsible way, and purchasing less often, well that’s gotta be the way to go.

I normally wear 33x32 in the Old Navy ultimate straight chino, which is loose but not super baggy. Tried out a pair of their relaxed jeans and they fit amazing - definitely baggier than the chinos. Today I picked up some Dickies relaxed cargos from Walmart for $40, in navy blue. They're too baggy in the lower leg so I got the sewing machine out and tailored them to a better fit, and reinforced the ass seam for good measure since they don't for some reason. Probably my first pair of Dickies since the early 90's. Would prefer 100% cotton but I like the basic design. Some cargos have too much going on.
Side note: I assume the Walmart Dickies are a lower tier product. These feel pretty cheap and the 32x32's I got were so tight in the waist I took them back for a 34x32, and when I tried them on they were the exact same size. Must have been mis-labeled in the factory, haha. I have a knack for finding fucked up product.

I just got 2 pairs of the CCS Plus Relaxed Chino Pants and liked them so much I ordered 2 more. They are on sale for 2 for $65 and free shipping. They are thick and sturdy pants but soft with a perfect amount of stretch. Nice loose fit and super comfortable. The fit is true to size on me.

Whenever Volcom has sales I look at the fricken modern stretch chinos and size up from 32 to 33. They're probably still the best pants I've ever worn/skated in.

I'm kind of in a pants limbo right now trying to find something good. Holidays has everything sold out everywhere, but I just need a flat front chino type pant that is actually loose in the butt and thighs with a high amount of stretch. I'll either find something that's not truly "relaxed" or "loose" or I'll find something that's so loose I'm swimming in them, which isn't the look I'm going for. Not built slim, always been meaty and now with WFH+winter I'm carrying some extra pounds. Any other beefys who can recommend something? 38-40 waist.

Yo. I got you. The only question is this for work? Also, I know you are in a cold weather state so do you need thick material?
I have been wearing the same pants for work for 5 years. I just wait until the go on sale and buy 3-5 or so.
https://www.macys.com/shop/product/nautica-lightweight-beacon-pants?ID=773314&CategoryID=89&swatchColor=Tuscan%20Tan
They are baggy around the waist and hips but normal in the leg so you are not looking down and pajama pants.
If you need thicker material you might want to try a different Nautica pant. They are made for 40 something dudes who don’t work out and like pants that are relaxed.
Also, I have always had luck with Old Navy for skate pants. Gap also. Both companies have baggie skate board jeans right now. Went and checked them out and the homies are correct, they are straight up Big Boy pants circa 1993.
Some pants I can’t wear are as follows:
Dickies
Carhart
Polo
J Crew
Levi’s
LL Bean
Basically, any pants that are made for men with narrow hips. I also need pants to hit at the hips as I can’t stand wearing pants at the waist.
Good luck.
-
Thanks man, those Nautica's are kinda intriguing. Problem is they don't list the material used. Do they have spandex woven in? I ended up ordering these Carhartt's and I'm hoping the waist wont be too tight. Supposed to arrive tomorrow...

Yes they have 2% spandex I believe. They stretch really nicely without looking wrinkled. I am a traveling sales person, at least before COVID-19, and I like to have pants that are easy to iron and I can eat lunch and dinner in with customers without feeling waste bite so take that as a yes they’re comfortable.
-
Gotcha, yeah I have a corpo desk job but it's not a strict dress code just have to not come in looking like a slob and that's good enough. I stick with flat front pants because of the versatility for being able to go skate or if I need to dress up a little bit. I try to do a cotton/poly blend because the 98% cotton/2% spandex you typically find with office slacks shrink easier and one scrape against the ground and they get shredded up pretty fast. If these carhartts suck I'll probably order those Nauticas.

Patagonia pants are expensive as fuck but they're high quality, durable but not uncomfortable material like carharrt work pants, wick water, and if the company is dope about repairs/giving you new clothes if they rip. Prana makes a good pair of pants too, you can get the Bronson model for under $50 online at various retailers right now. Super comfy and durable.

i'm not replacing mine anymore since i can't get em as cheap as i used to.

Ben Davis Trim Fit are exponentially better than 874.
-
Dickies 874 = simple, sturdy, long lasting and fits what I need in the pockets without being too bulky. Given the advice once, they fit best in a size up with a belt and that definitely works for me.
I buy them exactly fitting so I don‘t need a belt. Never put anything in the sidepockets, because stuff tends to fall out. Strangely I have to buy size W33 on the dark grey ones whereas I need W34 on the beige ones. :o
-
Dickies feel and fit like shit. Tried 874s once and it was like permanently credit carding a cardboard box.
-
Don’t like the regular dickies anymore. I do like their relaxed fit carpenter pants. It comes in a tough max stretch variant too but they seem low on stock on their site. The regular fit of the stretch carpenter pants, if sized up, are a good option too, just not as baggy.
-

yeah, that's why everyone sizes up two notches with them. i think the croch is really short on all the ones that are shorter than 32 length. so even though i fit 30 in most pants, i gotta get them in 32x32, and then hem off like one inch in length. 30x30 is way too tight. it fits at the waist, but there's no room for balls and ass and legs.

From my experience, the OG cut is similar to the 874s at least with the waist, both pants (874 and Ben) I've had were 31s in waist. The length you can take the same as your Dickies, just bear in mind that the leg opening (or hem or whatever) on the Ben Davis runs a little wider compared to the 874. Not too sure how they fit compared to 550s or surf pants - I have not skated in denim in forever.

The Trim fit are about the same as 874 they are not trim at all. Normal Ben Davis are quite massive. Neither taper. I wear the same waist size, but I have weird birthing hip. At most go one waist size up. They do seem more true to length tho.
-
Hmmm so it sounds like due to no taper and just a wider cut in general, lets say a 36 in dickies 874 fit you good, a 34 in Ben Davises would probably give the same sihouette?
-
I got the Ben Davis slims....way too tight and weird....is it weird how fixated we are on workwear? Like these companies are the experts......
-
Never heard of nor seen that Ben Davis logo before, I think it's rad. Based on the pics alone, they look higher quality than Dickies. Wish they had some spandex woven in though, ever since companies started doing that with pants I can't go back to normal ones.
-
Recently have been into the Dickies 874’s in flex fit & the 67’s in regular fit. They are true to size and do not disappoint. Softer and you can opt out of a belt. Other tip; don’t dry them in the dryer. Did that & they shrunk; thankfully dickies sent me a new pair no questions asked. Hang dry ‘em.
I go TTS for a slimmer/more straight fit BUT there is still room.

Try Gap or Old Navy. Or even Rustler at Walmart which is the senior citizen jean of choice—my dad and father in law both rock dem shits.The cheaper the Jean the baggier they tend to be around the thigh because they are trying to accommodate a wide percentage of the population that do not have skinny legs.
I have never owned a pair of Levi’s, Carhart’s, or Dickies that fit my thighs properly. Buying 2 sizes up feels silly to me. Always felt Gap/Old Navy was made with adult bodies in mind. I don’t wear skate pants cause they are made for boys. Also Gap/Old Navy Relaxed hit below the hips. They even have a baggy cut now which a few posters on the last page are fucking wit. I hate pants shopping. Good luck.

I'm 34-35, XL. L is much too short. Depending on whether you want to sag them a bit or really have them high waisted, even XL can be a teeny bit cropped sometimes.

I got these and they're basically like a Dickies 874 but way better quality. You have to order one waist size up, just like Dickies. However, I ended up having to order two waist sizes up just to get a more desired loose fit in the thighs and butt. The bottom half has a slight taper so you're not totally swimming in them like a loose fit Dickies or those Ben Davis pants with 20 breaks going up the leg.

6 foot 3, 165, wear a 32 waist cuz of wide hips but my actual waist is 28. Polar 32 in 93s, M Tall in surf pants is perfect. In the future I might go up 1 size in Ben Davis so my cell phone in my butt pocket isn’t as annoying

If you're looking for jeans specifically, I know Carhartt has "straight leg" and "tapered leg" relaxed fit options that might suit you-I'm wide 'til I die, so I can't comment on them from first hand experience though. Tapered pants are also in fashion right now, so you might also have luck getting some cheapo fast fashion pants sized up in the waist.
Do you have a leg opening that you're targeting?

What’s a good pant that’s baggy at the top but the leg opening is much more tapered. I thought Levi’s 550 would be the ticket but they still feel really big at the bottom
gap barrel beans. Super tapered and get a longer length if you don’t want them cropped. $20 shipped still, they actually just went down in price- I bought my second pair for $24. They’ve been posted in last 2-3 pages

What’s the waist sizing like? True to size or size up for baggyness

I went true to size on the waist, and it wasn't as baggy as I would've liked. So I'd say size up if you want them baggy. Definitely size up on the inseam though.

yeah, I’ve been buying 36 in everything and there’s a little room. Search this thread, 2-3people got them in on page 22 and also prior to that to read some thoughts.

Carhartt WIP Master Pant: just a nice pant but you should go down a waist size. Worth it. Not a loose pant but a nice straight fitting pant.

I know polar made a “karate pant” but has anyone tried just buying generic martial arts pants off Amazon and skating them? They seem like they’d be nice in the summer as they are super light and flowy

The fit is great but some might need a little tailoring. Also many of them are poly/cotton blends or straight up poly so if you're someine that only rocks cotton that's something to consider.

I bought a black kimono pant with elastic waist from Decathlon last spring; A bit long but it fits perfectly once cuffed enough, and I like the weight it adds so it's not overly flowy. The only big drawback is the lack of pockets

Just copped a pair. Sadly didn’t have a waist size up in stock so I had to go tts but I did make sure to buy up in length.

These are Old Navy Loose Pants. $40. Available in light, medium and dark. I wanted light but were out of my size.
They hit below the waist so normally I wear a 32” but 30” fit me with very little break at the shoe.
1% spandex which I am not a fan of but I guess I’ll get used to the stretch. Should be fun to skate in.
On a scale of slim to loose they are about a 7, but very comfortable.

Thanks for the recommendations. I wasn't able to find any 565s and I was hoping to get some Uniqlos cause I remember they were posted in the past but they don't have them in my size. How are the gaps?
-
The gap ones I got are the 'wide leg' they are in fact that....wide and short....a bit of swim for sure which is what this thread is about....the one thing I've forgotten about baggy pants is crotch sag.....these have that for sure. The uniqlo ones look similar. I think they are worth taking a chance on.

Awesome bro! Appreciate it a lot. I'm hoping that I can find some in my size.

There was some positive talk about Red Kap earlier in this thread and I want to confirm that these are sick.
I was thrifting and found a pair of double knee pants they make (have no idea what they're actually called) but they are nearly perfect. They have a very slight taper that's still loose and baggy in the thigh and knee, but the leg openings are small enough to cuff easily and don't eat your shoes.
The canvas they're made of reminds me of like a standard Carhartt duck canvas pant but more flexible and soft, they're comfy but the material seems durable. Only complaint I can make is the logo near the left knee, but it's small and could be removed with some careful work. Gonna have to look into buying more!
Also found an older but only slightly worn pair of black Levi's 550's, I swear these are the holy grail if loose pants for me. If you find a size or two above your actual waist size, you've found the perfect loose fit.

Can confirm, I just came up on some 550s at the thrift for mad cheap. Got em in a 38 (im a 34) and they fit perfect baggy.

I bought a pair of Vans A.V.E Washed Denim Jeans with the waist being a couple sizes bigger than what I typically wear and they have been perfect for a loose-fitting jean that's not overly baggy

What belts?

What belts?
Honestly, some cheap fucking pleather belt I got once when buying a pair of dress shoes. There's gotta be a better way lol
-
What belts?
if you size up, belts that are wider and span the width of the entire loop are better at reducing bunching than skinny belts or even worse, shoelace belts. Open to good suggestions too
-
Yeah anything with a buckle messed with the gut/stomach. Wondering web belt? Shoelace not holding up if sized up
-
What belts?
Check this out... https://toolbelts.com/product/hook-loop-closure-pants-belt/
I hate buckles too. Fell hard on a buckle once. Once
-
I kept getting a blister from my metal belt buckle rubbing so I made a couple of belts for myself.
than some of my freinds wanted them, So I made more..
i just use webbing and a plastic clip all purchased from Bunnings I'll post a pic later if I remember.
-
I have a simple grey webbing belt from Croakies that I bought at REI years ago with an aluminum triglide closure. Works really well.
I went on their website and saw that everything has a stupid bottle opener designed into the closure now. Why does everything need a bottle opener. I hate that so much.
There is a brand called Arcade that makes really nice belts that have a bit of stretch in em. They are like $30. If I had a need I'd like to try one of those.
-
I’ve got an arcade belt. Used to wear leather belts while skating, once I switched to arcade I’m over leather belts. The arcade has a little flexibility to it so it’s awesome for moving around. For reference, the model I have is the ranger slim.
Pants wise, check out ASOS I got a pair of baggy cords they fit similar to 93 denim if you buy them in your regular waist. I’ve also got a pair of ultra baggy denim which fit similar to big boys I’d assume since I don’t own big boys.

Maybe belongs in the sale thread but these loose fit premium levis are super cheap right now with code last call if you make an account, ran me about 37 post tax and shipping. The material on these cottonized hemp ones are super soft. Bit looser than 550s, tiny bit less than 550s of the same waist and taper a little bit more. But they're longer and so the taper isn't obvious as they stack a bit.

36" inseam for bottoms. kinda stupid that they cut all the lengths off at 32.5 even at xxxl
-
These simple web belts have been perfect for well over twenty years for me.
I found this random pic showing the ones with teeth clamp, because I found the other ones with the rolling pin inside don't hold as well.
Doesn't matter what size you are, they still do up fine, and if you have extra tail, use an elastic hair tie to hold the tail in to the belt so no issues any which way.
Just fold it back in under itself, learned that in the military. Or you can always cut it to length and put the metal end bit back on.

polar surf pants and some long johns ruined 874s for me. dont think i can go back after this week.
Local shop was closing and had -50% on all clothing, they had some Surf pants but they looked like pyjamas so I grabbed 874s instead. It was funny, I hadn’t tried on different dickies before and they were low on sizes so I tried a pair of ”slim fits” (873 i guess?) in 31” and they were exactly the same size when worn at the hips as 33” 874s, I think some noted earlier in this or another thread that the measurements differ between ”worn at the waist” and ”worn at the hips”. But the slims where so disgusting, they felt too low, like the old school low waist jeans, and were tight around the thighs but loose (straight) below the knees so they looked like bell bottoms.
So the question is, do the creases on Dickies iron out?

they didn't when i tried that. and they don't just go away with time either. you'll probably destroy them before the crease goes.
slims are terrible, the crotch is so short, even when you wear em low your dick and balls will eventually migrate to one side and get stuck between pantleg and real leg. totally agree they feel like bell bottoms. also slims run at least one size larger around the waist, which makes no sense to me.
i was fine with dickies when i got them dirtcheap, but nowadays without shop discount i'd rather pay for some nicer pants tbh or hit the thrift shop.

If you ask me....874's don't even belong in this thread....they are traditional fits...less the leg openings, I've never felt they were loose. I like them but if anything I find them kinda tight in the thigh....
That said....I just got the stay loose Levi's... 32x32 vs. Gap Barrels 32 x 34's
Barrel: slight taper, higher waist, soft denim, a bit of sag, 2 rolls
Stay Loose: less taper, normal waist, baggier than barrels, 2 rolls
The stay loose is not as big as what polar is doing but up the same alley Overall I think I like the barrels a bit more, to me the denim is just more wearable, and honestly I put the Levi's on and thought...maybe these are a bit big....that said...I'm used to wearing 874's...

Same, the leg opening a bit small and a bit short, but the thigh room was good and the material was nice. The stay loose definitely work better for me, not as much as some polars big bit more than a 550. Good sweet spot.

Barrels have been good, just got my black pair with 36 length. i am 6'4" and even I am making the 34 length work on the blue pair. @hobochimp how high you wearing on your waist? The pics on the site had them at a cropped fit from the get go. The leg opening is a bit narrow. They do break in and loosen up nicely, too. I dunno, exactly what I was looking for at $20 each.

I'm 6 5 and the 36 inseam ones were just long enough. Most pants 34 inseam suffices for me. They're definitely made to be a cropped kinda pant.

I fell victim to the hype and I bought some of the polar 93 jeans unfortunately I think they look really stupid on me. I usually wear Levi’s 550s or vintage carhartts jeans that fit similar and I’ve always really liked how those fit, I’ve even worn the loose fit Dickie’s work pants which I think are wider in the leg than the 93s. For some reason I just think the 93s look like jnco raver jeans on me maybe it’s the light blue wash but it’s looking like these are receiving a thumbs down and it’s back to 550s

All comes down to sizing. If you ordered the size you typically wear they are probably huge. I order a size down and they fit like some relaxed dad jeans.

I'm on a loose pants crisis currently, nothing is working out. I have Ben Davis original fit pants on the way, anyone have these? Are they pretty gargantuan compared to the "trim fit"? I read somewhere the trims fit like an 874 but slightly looser and am wondering if I should have gotten those instead, in case these might be like parachutes.

I'm your same size. I really like the fit of the stay loose, can't speak on relaxed taper. they only have x32 so they are definitely a little baggy on the ankle but they are perfectly baggy with pretty much no form on the leg. if that's what you're going for, highly reccommend.

Dungaree loose fits and the simple pants for sure. I recommend getting the Simple pants that are just from the regular workwear line and not the WIP line as from my experience the WIP are a bit less loose fitting.

don't buy that stupid WIP shit. the cotton/canvas work pants are heavier than a regular pant/denim and run long in my experience. Also, there's no freeballing with em because the canvas chafes. Otherwise, they're good pants that last a while. I've got a couple pairs of canvas double knee and a pair of, I guess twill ones. Twill is definitely softer but not as durable, however, try to find that shit 2nd hand on eBay or something because they might be broken in better and far softer/flexible. I found a pair on the sidewalk last week, cleaned em up, and they're comfy as fuck.

Round two - made some jeans this time. Tweaked my old pattern a bit for a more relaxed fit, but it still needs a bit of work. Really happy with how they turned out though. Now if I can just figure out why my machine all of a sudden won't zig zag stitch evenly when I'm using top stitching thread - fucking annoying. Had to forego my usual back pocket style for some plain old straight stitching.
Anyone else actually making pants?

Just got my Juki DDL-8700 setup, but need to get my gravity feed iron going. Stoked to get to making some stuff soon. But to answer your question, no, not yet; but soon...

Round two - made some jeans this time. Tweaked my old pattern a bit for a more relaxed fit, but it still needs a bit of work. Really happy with how they turned out though. Now if I can just figure out why my machine all of a sudden won't zig zag stitch evenly when I'm using top stitching thread - fucking annoying. Had to forego my usual back pocket style for some plain old straight stitching.

Nice. I just have a cheap domestic Brother machine - only ever used an industrial machine a few times many years ago. Gotta say, I'm always impressed that an inexpensive domestic machine can sew through the thick parts of a pair of raw denim jeans. I've definitely broken a few needles though!

Making your own jeans seems sick. I don't have that skill, but it must be nice to be able to make your own measurements and fit exactly how you want.

Just bought some Ben Davis Gorilla Cut. Ben Davis is 10x better than Dickies. I now only wear my old dickies gear when I know I'm gonna get shit dirty.

Here's a better look at the fit of those jeans. Not quite as baggy as a relaxed fit, but slightly looser than the average regular fit jean. Gonna go baggier for the cargos I'm making next.

Carhartt pals what’s the best fit if I need some baggy bois in the rotation? Dungaree loose fits? Simple pants? Single knee fits? Never owned carhartt pants. Going for 100% cotton always. Never that stretch shit.
B11 is the way to go, B159s are alright but shrink heavily in the wash and are lighter weight

I have a pair of these I got for $20. They're really nice for the price, they're a loose straight fit pant. Not the baggiest if you get them true to size like I did, but still roomier than 874s or other pants like that. They are very cropped though, so depends on whether you're into that kind of thing.

does anyone have a recommendation on corduroys that have a drawstring? (aside from Polar)
also, anyone with the Levis 550 hemp denim- fit pics??
Mine just came in the mail, here's a pic geared up to Brave the sub 20 degree elements for a flat ground session. Copped em on sale woth the link posted earlier and it came out to 50 bucks after taxes and shipping. More than I usually spend on pants, but not a bad deal compared to other "premium" jeans bought new. I sized up in the waist and fit is a lot like some khaki "baggy" silvertabs I have. Somebody said there isn't much taper, this is true! They're also pretty soft which is comfortable but they don't stack like traditional denim. All in all, great pant for skating. Can't wait to wear em in the summer, they're airy :)

if im considering grabbing a pair of ben davis pants and a tts dickies double knee is my favorite pant in terms of bagginess and comfort, should i go OG or Gorilla cut?

edit: when I say that the OGs look oddly tight on the leg, I am specifically referencing the upper thigh/butt area, which is where I like extra room.

I would say either fit you're still good. I have beefy thighs for my size and have plenty of room in the regular ones. But be 100% about your waist size on those because there's no wiggle room there, they don't stretch.

The taper on mine are very very minimal, if not non-existent. I'm not 100% sure if they're supposed to taper at all. I personally wear my jeans with my Crockett Highs a lot (inspired by the man himself lol) and they're a good looking combo.

I honestly have no idea what kind of giants wear the 40 inseam. I’m 6’6 with pretty long legs and 34 in 550s is plenty long especially if you’re not gonna be wearing them pulled up all high. If you want the extra length you’d be fine with a 36 inseam. I’d say go with 38/36 or 38/38

I ordered Ben Davis Originals and they were definitely small in the waist with tighter fitting thigh/ass area compared to Dickies relaxed or loose fit. Most photos of models are men with skinny legs so the pants looks very loose but for beefier guys like me, it wasn't the case. Ordered the next waist size up, waiting on them to ship.

I’ve been on the Ben Davis train since the 90’s and I’d say that 1 size up often does people the best. They’re work pants first, which are designed not to need a belt or sag at all. When you squat down they get tight in the butt so the bottoms pull up and don’t bunch behind the knee/limit mobility.
I do the trim fit now, which aren’t trim. Recently went up 1 size from normal and it’s a bit comfier and not really any baggier (33 vs 32, normally a 32).
Anyone try 559? I don’t find 550 that baggy, thought about them.

For anyone curious about those Old Navy Ultimate Loose Khakis, I got some yesterday and although they're a bit thin compared to dickies, they're still a poly cotton blend that is nice and loose yet professional looking, soft and stretchy for full range of motion. Cancelled my Ben Davis order because I love these so much. They're on sale right now, I got 6 pair for $150 and that's with faster shipping option.

same size waist, feel like the levis have a tad bit more room compared to the Gap Barrel but it could be that wash I got was stretch material. as for length I kept my normal length in the Levis opposed to sizing up in the Gap Barrell.

Can anyone comment on how Carhartt Single Knee Pants ( https://us.carhartt-wip.com/products/single-knee-pant-hamilton-brown-559 ) fit compared to Levis 550? I get 33x34 in the 550. Carhartt website says the sizing runs big and to order a waist size down. My true waist size is a 32 I just go 33 in the 550 Levis for a baggier look. Now I'm wondering if I should get 33 or 32 in the carhartt single knee. I'd rather get too baggy than too tight so I'm leaning towards size 33.
I have to import these from carhartt wip usa because no one in canada stocks 34 inseam pants. It will cost me a bit of $$ so I'm trying to make sure I don't fuck it up!

Why not buy normal carhartt pants for a fraction of the price?

I wasn't able to find any product like this on the regular Carhartt side of the line... everything is tapered down and normy looking.

I do own the single pant and quite like it. I usually wear size 34 in Dickies 874 and ordered a 34 in Carhartt, which is sized up at least once. Does run big and fits baggy.
Can only recommend the pants, but as I'm from Europe the WIP stuff is easier to get a hold on than the actual workwear of Carhartt.

loose dungaree fit double knees for $40-50 is the answer. It’s not tapered nor is it normy. That WIP shit at almost triple the price?! Fuck that

Yeah these Butter Goods Philly Santouosso pants are the shit. Perfect taper, if you cuff em the cuffs do not move. Drawstring on the inner waist is great. The denim quality is great.
I can literally fit a 1500ml wine bottle in each pocket with ease. It’s hilarious.

Kind of a crossover with the sale gear thread but I grabbed a pair of these Levi’s stay loose carpenter jeans on sale for $40, colourways are pretty nice, the fit looks like good and they are a hell of a lot cheaper than the polar big boy carpenters.

However it’s very worth it. Very durable, thicker material and they don’t blow out. Just got two more Master Pants. These and the Dickies 67 & 67 Flex Straight Fit are the absolute best. Not necessarily as far as loose pants go (if you size up, sure) but just reliable and nice looking pants.

I haven’t tried the 93 denim or surf so I can’t speak on those comparisons exactly, but I have 93 cords and they're comparable. Bit baggier in the thigh & knee than the 93s. More crotch room. By the shin they are pretty damn similar, and by the ankle the Santouossos are obviously more tapered. I think the taper on them is very appropriate, not excessive at all imo. I have to french cuff the fuck out of big boys if I want the cuff to stay all day, and a lesser extent to 93s. With these I can cuff them once and not worry about it at all.
To further explain the taper, the bottom of my pant hits the 3-4th lace hole on Sk8-His, and the 93 cords can eat up to the 2-3rd lace hole. Philly did post the shops carrying them on his instagram, so you could theoretically go to one of those and try them on yourself.
That was more than I intended to type about pants.

Anyone got any leads on good black denim jeans with white contrast stitching? Looking for a loose straight-ish fit, but I'm open to anything ;)

If anyone could point me in the direction of some loose fit cords, I'd sure appreciate it.
LL Bean natural fit cords. Have a couple pairs and they're solid. Had to go a size up for the perfect loose fit though.
good looks gonna try to find some in my size

That is a great recommendation. LL bean is the best.

I have some nice brooks bothers ones, polo makes them...loose/relax/dad style....check Gap/uniqlo for wide....

polar 93 cords might be my favourite pair of pants i own.....fit great! i had the 93 jeans and the did not feel that good. i guess that comes from the cord is lighter and moves up around the hip easier when skating where the heavy jeans restricted my movement i feel. had both in 32 wich fit me quite well around the waist.
got some levi's 550s in 34 width in the mail yesterday and they seem quite similar in fit but i can move easier/ not feel restricted. Might fuck around and get a 36 next!
Edit: Fucked around and ordered some size 36/32s.......should go great with my tiagos in spring 8)

I got some $20 550 a few weeks ago in my my size (34x34), and just yesterday I got some one size up. Great pants, I can’t believe I neglected the Levi outlet nearby for so long.

How are the Dickies Carpenters (Rlxd fit) compared to the carhartt single knee's?
Would like to have a chocolate brown pants and there's no way to get one from carhartt. Thinking of checking out the dickies
Do they run big? I usually go for a 34 and thought about ordering a 38, as 36 is taken

Man i really want to add a nice loose fitting pair of Denim to my wardrobe but there are just so many options its overwhelming lol.

Posted this multiple times, so apologies for the spammy nature:
Any recent leads on pants similar in fit and material to the Levi's skate work pants?
I have 4 pairs and little desire to wear any other pant as of late.

If u want your jeans to be slightly baggy, then get your size because they are tts. When i get them my size though, they arent very baggy tbh i usually get a bigger sizing. Try to get the older ones, they are better quality.

Not all Silvertabs are created equal. There’s regular, relaxed, loose, low + loose, baggy, boot cut, pleated, and of course they all fit differently.

I go up a size or two in silvertabs, or aim to get the "oversized" style tts. But then again I want them to fit like polar big boys. If you like Polar 93s, tts should be fine.
I also noticed depending on what era (you can tell by the tags designs) the "baggy" cut differs in fit.

It also depends on the years they were made, some of the new ones i feel arent as baggy as the older baggy/loose 90s product.

absolutely.
i had a pair of those in olive and those, along with some volcom chinos i had back then, were the best pants i ever had. the fabric was thick and kinda velvety. they were really really nice. if you found the same ones you absolutely should get them.
i was obsessed with these pants as a kid. my mom insisted i buy them upsized so i wouldn't grow out of them so fast because they were so expensive. can't remember what happened to them, but i've been wearing them for a long ass time and if i still had them they'd probably still fit since i haven't grown an inch since age 13.

I'm just going to start wearing martial arts pants because they're cheap and made not to restrict leg movement. A lot of the leg openings are too wide but that is easily fixed.

Whats the inseam on a 32 and do they taper at all? Leg opening seems decently wide, how bout the thigh room. My true waist is a 34 but for Levis 550s I have to get at least a 36 or even 38 for the right thigh room, and I'm not even about crazy baggy pants.

Didn’t measure the inseam id say it’s 30 or 31. Once it goes over 31 I have to start cuffing. Absolutely zero taper. And thighs are very roomy. I don’t believe my thighs are touching fabric in any of the photos.

Got my silvertab baggy’s in the mail today that I ordered off Depop, fit is perfect and the wash is insane, very similar to the “black/brown” polar big boys that’s came out this winter. If you can find a pair for cheap these are probably the perfect skate jean

Damn thank you for the offer, I appreciate it! But I normally wear a size 29/30 so I'd likely get these in either 28 or 30 :(

No problem, I was looking at them but didn't want to commit either. Figured it could help us both if one of us got them in hand.
Anyone have experience with the FTC Pier 7 jeans? I have them in my cart just can't find any confirmed on body pictures to get an idea of the fit.

It looks like Butter Goods heard me asking for those jeans and their newest drop has a pair that fits almost exactly what I'm looking for: https://buttergoods.com/blogs/q1-2021-preview/overdye-denim-work-pants
I've heard a lot of good things about their pants (especially in this thread lol) so I may look into these when they drop. Not stoked that they'll probably be like $100 though...

Just pulled the trigger on these Brown elastic waisted butter pants. I figure fuck it I'm 32 years old all I want to dress is comfy anyways at this point. I've maintained a baggy pants attire even when everybody was cuffing and before that wearing skinnies but these pants are much more comfy than baggy denim. These specific butter pants are 100% cotton I would say they are true to size I wear a size 36 waist and I got large and they fit comfortably in the waist and in length. For reference in Dickies I'm a 3630 and my pants sit right at my ankles. Yes they are ridiculously expensive I cannot justify spending $85 on cotton pants besides throwing out a couple old pair of Dickies and telling myself I'm going to be wearing these non-stop for the next year skateboarding , leisure etc. honestly the quality is on point I saw a tag inside this is made in China which kind of bummed me out. I would like to try to pay it pair of the polar corduroy pants but they didn't have my size at my local shop.

Anybody know when a new batch of polar 93 cords or denims will come out?
I just got two pairs of carhartt work in progress “master pants” off eBay used for cheap and these things are baggy and have a great taper. I’d say perfect. The black pair works perfect with my black accel ogs.

I am begging for Butter Goods to give more detail in their sizing charts. Most of them don't even list the inseam. They usually just list the waist and the outer leg length, which doesn't even tell you how long the pants are unless you also know the rise.
I'm fine with the 'skate brands selling baggy jeans for $100' trend, but the brands have to understand that the only people buying those pants are people who are absolutely obsessed with pants. If I'm having $100 pants shipped to me from Australia, I want to know the waist circumference, rise, thigh width, leg length, and leg opening. I'm not buying them unless I'm fairly sure that I know how they're going to fit. They do list most of that stuff on the Santosuosso jeans, but those ones are too baggy for me, and they still don't list the rise (which is essential for me because I have a huge ass and a long torso).

not to mention that if i pay 100 bucks or more for a pant, i want that pant to be either sustainable, produced fairly, or both. i'm not paying that much to get something that is just on par with say a pair of uniqlo pants.
this is not a knock on butter goods though. i have no idea where they produce actually. i was thinking about getting the philly jeans, but i would rather get a levis stay loose for sustainability or a polar pant for being made in eu.

Haven’t bought new Levis in eons, but the Philly jean denim quality feels better than Polar’s denim. Don’t get me wrong, Polars shit is comfy for sure but it comes broken in like sweatpants. The attention to detail in things like the pockets and drawstring are nice with the Butters. Time will tell on durability, but the quality is there.
I was so happy with them that I was willing to take a chance on their new pant, but god damn are y’all right do they need a size chart. Polar’s size chart for example is real helpful.
-
^^ That's the thing. The quality looks good, and they have the right idea on the styles/fits, but I'm not spending the money without a better idea of what the measurements are like.
The Philly jeans are cool, but the fit looks pretty extreme. I have XL Polar surf pants, and the Philly jeans have a smaller leg opening, and are bigger in the thighs than the XL surf pants in every size above 30". I'd be interested in the work pants or the 'world' denim, but there's really no sizing info listed for either of them, so I'd just be guessing on the fit.
-
I have a butter “frog denim” jean from 2020 drop that the inseam is 29.5 inches. I always prefer 32 because I like to cuff so I don’t think I will be returning to $100 pants from them again. This pair was also made in China. But I will say the denim is better than polar imo

Thats fucked, I can't possibly imagine wanting more thigh room than on XL surf pants, with a smaller leg opening too. The mc hammer vibes sound wayyyy too strong.

I feel this, this is exactly why I'm hesitant to pull the trigger on those Enjoi Fader jeans. There's no good size chart for them anywhere, not even on Enjoi's website, and because I'm in between sizes I really want to know how something is going to fit on me before I drop $70+ on it.
Skate Warehouse has them in both 28 and 30 and I'm considering ordering one size and exchanging it for the other one if it doesn't work out. Or maybe I'll just order both and return the one that doesn't fit. I just feel bad pulling shit like that with retailers...

unrelated to almost all current discussion in this thread but I just wanna say that my Ben Davis' original fits are my favorite pants that I own. baggy and wide as all fuck and the fabric is such a huge step up from dickies. measure your damn waist for sure, they fit exactly true to size unlike some dickies models.
-
the best cargo pants are levi's carrier cargos, they have a buckle belt w/ reflecto lines on the strap (and cinches at the leg opening). they're becoming hard to find but can still be had on ebay if you're skinny or very fat.

i can agree with this, bought a pair at tj maxx for $15 and they quickly became my favorite pants

***update*** 5 or so days in with the butter goods herringbone pants. These are by far the most comfortable pants i own. I commonly wear 874, ben davis regular or levi 501 but these are my new favorite/go to. Ive skated in them. The cotton is preety thick and didnt scuff from heelflips etc. Im happy my local has them in black too because i want another pair already.

just get rothcos or mil surplus bdus. i owned several pairs of aviation cargos over the years and they are basically just that, except they have pressure buttons instead of normal buttons or velcro on their pockets. that price is insane btw. i have one carhartt cargo left that has no cargo pockets anymore max palmer style, is pretty trashed overall, and like 5 years old. i have a camo pattern second hand surplus pair i bought for ten bucks probably about ten years ago. it fits exactly the same, but is thicker and despite me wearing it more often than the carhartt pair, still going super strong. they will outlast the carhartt ones for sure.
generally wip is fucking garbage quality wise if you compare it with similar priced brands. it was alright when they were eu only because it was mad cheaper. since they fooled you americans into buying wip stuff prices have skyrocketed. it's ridiculous. these pants used to be 80 euros way back, now they are at 120 and also much worse quality. they used to go up to 100 5 years ago and everybody was already like "nope, i'm out".

dungarees.com is great for regular carhartts. they have a lot of factory seconds which have maybe a slight defect that makes them cheaper

Unrelated to current discussions as well, if anyone is looking for a loose chino pant that is actually 100% loose fitting and super soft and stretch with every movement, look no furthur than Old Navy's loose chinos. I've had six pairs for a couple months, and I'm about to stock up on more so I never run out of them. They are more comfortable than any Dickies "flex" pant which I wore for the last 5 or so years, and although these are slightly less durable, they are still good quality and have an even more formal look than Dickies. I could sleep in these.

Don't be fooled by how slim they look in the pics. They are perfectly loose, not merely "relaxed" trying to be passed off as loose. They're legit.

Just got a pair of the Levis Stay Loose and they're the dopest jeans I've put on in a while. Baggy with some structure, TTS but loose in the hips, nice coloring and $21 bucks. Definitely feel nice and not like knock off Levis from TJ Maxx, Marshalls, or Ross.
-
I too, got a pair of Levis Stay Loose today! I've given up Polar, because their sizing belongs to the 1990s aswell. I wear a size M Polar Big Boys, and its slightly too big in the waist, I can fit 4 fingers.
And even a Polar '93 in size 34/34 is too short length wise, althought the '93s have a much nicer fit, nicer rear pockets etc.
-
Bought a vintage Levis 550. Pretty much the same cut and color as the light blue stay loose, that I once ordered. Wondering if the 550 was the silhouette they took to create the stay loose.Paid less than a quarter of the price tho

Was thinking of buying these Butter Goods Santosuosso jeans cause my big boys in medium were way too baggy in my opinion.
It looks like Butter Goods heard me asking for those jeans and their newest drop has a pair that fits almost exactly what I'm looking for: https://buttergoods.com/blogs/q1-2021-preview/overdye-denim-work-pants
I've heard a lot of good things about their pants (especially in this thread lol) so I may look into these when they drop. Not stoked that they'll probably be like $100 though...
These look really good too. :o

They fit TTS in the waist. Length seems more like a 31-32 than a 30 but they look great with some cuffs. They didn't offer the 28 length in my large waist size or else I probably would have gone with that.

Anyone tried these? The fit looks nice and loose with a little taper toward the ankle, but I'm wondering if the material is gonna be light enough for the upcoming Texas summer. I'm trying to find a cheaper alternative to surf pants and these look pretty great, tons of color and material options, even some cargos and super wide boys if you wanna get your '94 on.

sick! I have a snowy denim from momotaro & I’m a sucker for light washes so I went light blue on this order. Might snag a snowy next paycheck ;) & to the homie asking for price justification idk man just rad to support Gilbert and the shop with made in America shit is my answer. I love antiques and vintage shit so I support him and his shop. A huge plus for this dudes pants is the 40’s style high rise roomy leg fit - absolutely the perfect fit for how I dress. A lot of selvedge denim is $200+ so it comes with the territory as an investment. It’s money well spent if you keep pants/jeans for years like I do.

Small orders, handmade, with hard to find (cone denim specifically) quality materials and USA made. $250 is the average price I’ve paid for selvedge denim.
These aren’t made for skateboarders. These are made for people that are into a certain a aesthetic. These will pair with the crocketts I skate and then I can slip on some Goodyear welt boots and hit a bar or a night out.

I got a pair of the butter jeans world denim. Peeerfect fit. I wear a 32 and got a 34. Love the drawstring feature on them. I'm sure they'll continue making them at which point I'll probably buy another pair, hopefully in a lighter wash.

vintage guess jeans, vintage Calvin Klein easy fit jeans, vintage Ralph Lauren jeans. Silvertabs are GOAT of course. Levi’s Stay loose are dope. Even Harley Davidson has some dope relaxed fit light washes out there on the webs. I went on a huge 90’s denim binge before the pandemic, had great experiences with all of these

Been hearing good things about the Chrystie loose fit pants, they looked good on a recent clip of James Sayres. Are they worth it?

regarding the Cee Blues jeans... I thought 10oz was pretty lightweight denim, seems like these wouldn't take long to rip up and fall apart, can anyone educate me here? I'd prefer something with more heft.

Yeah 10oz is pretty lightweight, although I plead ignorance in not knowing how weight plays a role in the durability of pants - is there a correlation? I would suggest Carhartt B01s as an (affordable) alternative (12oz, double knees) if you don't own a pair already.
I've also been eyeing this brand for a loooong time now, Dawson Denim. They have everything I want in jeans; high rise, wide leg options (21" leg opening), hefty weight to them (13.75 oz) and as a bonus made in the UK from Japanese sourced cotton. The only thing holding me back has been the price (280GBP). One day I'll be able to scoop a pair hopefully.
-

the thing is with raw denim you gotta hit it with the cold soak and hang dry before wearing them. This ensures the denim takes its form and strengthens up. While 10 oz may seem light I think they will be pretty damn sturdy and durable after the soak. I will be soaking the 13 oz light wash tomorrow night and will report back. I should have the 10 oz snowy by Monday will def report on weight differences

I have the 10oz snowy. They are certainly lightweight, however denim construction makes it a pretty durable material. These will be perfect for warm months.
For what it's worth most Levi's are 12oz. if you were to look at 10 and 12oz next to each other most consumers wouldn't be able to tell they were different fabric. I have some 14oz selvedge denim I wear, don't skate in, that is going on 7 years old. They have fades from where the crease and flex but no sign of quitting anytime soon. With the wider legs of the cee blues the only way I could see blowing them out would be slamming on rough ground A LOT.

Bit the bullet and ordered a pair of the Enjoi Fader jeans in a size 28 from Skate Warehouse. They seem to have a good return policy so I figure I can just return them if they don't fit or if I don't like them. I can definitely report back with my first impressions and fit pics if people are interested too

JNCO jeans are one of my favorites. What's nice is that they go on sale for $65 pretty often which is when I recommend to buy them. Spending over $100 on a pair of jeans for skating is just too much, but $65 is a lot more reasonable. Their fit is really nice. It's fitted in the waist, but baggy everywhere else. It's super nice if you skate with a wallet in your pocket and don't want to feel it at all. The pockets are really deep too which makes carrying bigger phones and stuff a lot more comfortable.
I'd recommend getting the 169 low down since they are the least baggy with a 20 inch leg opening. If I were to say a negative, it would have to be that they aren't tapered at all, so if you skate with slimmer shoes, they're probably going to get caught under your shoes quite often and get torn up. But if you skate bigger shoes like Globe, Etnies or DC, you should be fine. Other than that they are extremely durable and hold in the heat well for winter skating. In hot summer they can get pretty warm though.

Got those Enjoi Fader jeans in the mail today and I'm pretty surprised at how nice the denim is. It's very soft and broken in feeling while still being substantially thick. Since I'm in between sizes and sized down, the jeans also aren't as baggy as I thought they'd be, but I'm down for that. My only complaint is that the front pockets are narrow and hard to stick my hand into, but they still fit everything I need. I think I'll be keeping these.
Here's some fit pics if anyone's interested. Excuse the moccasins too, they were a present from my partner's parents and are comfy af as house shoes.

Pretty sure it is a reference to Menace jeans, which were a Jnco competitor in the 90s and always had a little dude on the pocket.

i will always think of world industries pants. these were very popular at the end of the 90s when i started skating. they had flameboy, wet willy or devilman on those same spots as the polar pants have their little guys. i think sometimes on the backpocket, too like those menace pants or the buttergoods world(maybe the name is not a coincidence) pants.

How is the Santosuosso denim? Does it taper much in the legs? They seem like they have a smaller leg opening which is what I want. I saw on philly's story the other day that he wears a waist size 42 so I'm curious exactly how they'd look on a true to size 36. Also what is the length like?

I got some Carhartt Newels, and they are size 33W, but probably 32L (you can choose length), and they are pretty short. 105cm total. I do see they offer models where you can choose length, but they arent the baggiest models?

I have a pair of the black cords. They're definitely a nice pair for the price. They taper a lot, so check the leg opening of one of your favorite pants to wear and compare it to the Cookman measurements
-
While on the topic of the cookman chef cords, the length listed on the size guide is like 40"+ . Are they really that long?

You sure that's the inseam? It could be the measurement from the top to the bottom, which is different then the inseam (crotch to the bottom)

that actually makes a lot of sense. But worst case, just a quick trip to the seamstress

Yeah he def just sizes up like doubling the waistline lol. Some of those pants don't look like dickies tho, he probably just buys enormously sized "regular fit" pants.

I've been following this dude on instagram for a while and I also think both of these are right. Definitely seen him rocking Dickies and other nondescript black pants that look multiple sizes too big for him. Nothing wrong with that, just not my thing.

Never had elastic waistband before. May need to try these.
I have these , they run pretty small. Typically wear small in Polar Surf pants, needed a medium in these
@Lukabrazi Bout to buy myself a pair of these from SPoT, but the sizing guide on Theories site has too many measurements. My real size is 30×32, wondering if I should go with small or medium...

Definitely go a size up, I usually wear a medium for the polar surf pants. Got a large for the Theories pants and they fit great.

surprised these guys haven't bent mentioned, keen to try a pair of the filmer jeans
any one heard of them or have any thoughts on the brand ?
Never heard of this brand either, but lord these look sick: https://televisistarcatalog.com/collections/pants/products/classic-filmer-sunflower-black-denim-white-stitching
If those Enjoi jeans I ordered don't work out, I may consider ordering a pair of these. Would love to see how they look on someone first though!
hit up their IG pages, they look pretty dope, and since i been following them they've blown up a fair bit, theres a few pros getting into it
its quite a small team i think that do it all themselves, and theyll do custom shit as well
they look fucking sick on this dude

Televisi Star is a brand out of Bali and they dude rules! They make everything by hand in at least in the beginning and theyre a really high quality pair of corduroys with a soft interior, really nice to skate.
The Bali skate scene continues is sick. Skate with this crew some time. A lot of great brands here! Televisi star brand pants are fire though!

Anyone know of a good lightweight pant that fits like an XL polar surf pant with less taper (wouldnt mind less baggy in the thigh too). Polar karate pants are great but impossible to find. Preferably elastic waist since I'm a true 34 and feel like I'd have to size up too much on normal pants with belt loops.

Maybe you should just start fucking with gi's.....

Dude polar sizing is torture. I’m a 29 waist 33 length and I really wish they had more options for tall dudes with small waists. Kind of tired having to shrink their pants thru several washes.

there are like two pairs on ebay where i live and those are womens models/bootcuts. if i type in silvertab in depop right now i get two models, one seems to be a womens model. local thrift is closed because of the pandemic, but they mostly don't have baggy jeans or are after other levis jeans, like any 501. grailed isn't bad, but for the price including shipping to europe i can get a brand new pair of pants over here or just buy a stay loose. i guess there's just not that many silvertabs going around in europe than in the us.

Just got some Carhartt Relaxed fit denim. They are the exact cut as the 550s. Hoping for better quality. Blew out the ass and had a year from the zipper down the inseam in less than 6 months in the Levi's.

To be fair, I've never seen a pair at thrift stores that weren't some overly large waist size. I've been scouring eBay for pairs, but they're either super overpriced ($50-80 easily) or they're way too tapered.

Just pulled the trigger on 5 pairs of cookman. They have a decent enough return policy. 5 pair cost the same as 2 Polar surf pants and they have more color options. Will report back once they arrive.

I saw your post in the Polar pants thread and thought you were joking! Could you post fit pics too? I'm curious about Cookman pants but it seems like they taper a lot more than what I like.

Grabbed some of the Butter Goods Santosuosso jeans recently, and would say they run big. I'm usually a 33 waist, but buy 34 for extra room and mobility. I bought these in 32 and they're still loose around the waist, so I'm using the built-in drawstring.
Super baggy through the thigh, but taper pretty hard. If i can find somewhere locally that could match the stitching enough for my fussy tastes I might get them taken up 3-4 inches for less stacking, and then the taper will be less severe. Still, I'm very happy with them. The quality is great, like all their stuff, and looks like they'll last really well. The denim is thick and soft, they're going to be great for winter, but probably just going to be my favourite jeans for chilling and going out. I imagine they could take a beating if i skated them but they'd be too hot to skate in where I live, even in winter.

i will probably order this two pack, no idea about thighs and stuff, but two for 30 euros is one hell of a deal. could be great for skating and work.

-the brand is corny, it's not really a cool workwear brand like dickies or carhartt, it's a dorkwear brand. most of their stuff is hideous and plastered in hivis elements and way too many pockets.

Good to know about the sizing and fit. I am desperate for a pair of those dark wash ones. Hope they restock soon. Definitely gonna be wary of the heat of them though bc I live in a hot place so probably not the best sounding skate jeans. If anyone knows a place I can order some 36 waist santosuossos let me know

Haven’t been checking this thread lately so sorry if abp, but Gap Factory has a knockoff Polar Surf Pant called the Easy Pant for $20.
There’s a couple versions, single back pocket is baggier.
**Tall guys beware, these are cropped, so you’ll be flooding

Picked up stay loose khakis from Levi's site. Not bad...wider leg opening. I prefer a bit more of taper but they will do.

Anyone got suggestions for a durable loose fit pant I can dress up thats not as sweaty as dickies? I’ve been looking at some TNF hiking pants and such but they all seem to fit very slim. A taper works quite well on my frame so bonus points if they have that shape.
-
Anyone have both the Philly Butter jeans and the Polar Big Boys? Tryin to find out which pair is bigger. I have the Butter pants and they are super baggy, so I’m wondering if the Big Boys are as big or smaller?
-
This week I went through a loose jeans identity crisis. It started with me feeling like my trusty Levi 550s were too tight after seeing myself in a picture wearing them. Ended up buying some polar big boys which I always swore I’d never buy. Those things are giant, I hated them. The same day those arrived I just happened to end up it the mall and picked up some loose fit jeans from old navy. Can’t remember what they call the Jean exactly, but it’s either loose or relaxed fit. I bought one waist size up and they are super solid baggy fit for cheap. Quality seems good enough especially considering the price.
After old navy I stopped in at Macy’s and they had a bunch of Levi’s stay loose on sale. Picked up a pair of them and I’m in love. I just went true to size on waist and inseam and they are perfect. Solid baggy-ish fit without being stupidly baggy like big boys. The denim is the flex denim and super breathable and feels decent quality. I live in a humid and hot place and felt fine wearing them all day today. Definitely recommend. Leg opening isn’t too big either which is something I usually am picky about.

$19.97
Would recommend sizing up 1 size in the waist on this wash. I’m always 32 x 32 and these were too tight. Went 33 x 32 and it’s almost the exact same fit/wash as polar 93 dark blues they just dropped lol. $100 cheaper as well

Would recommend sizing up 1 size in the waist on this wash. I’m always 32 x 32 and these were too tight. Went 33 x 32 and it’s almost the exact same fit/wash as polar 93 dark blues they just dropped lol. $100 cheaper as well
I own a pair, sized up from 32 to 34 and I love the fit. Definitely considering buying another pair now that they're 20 fuckin bucks.

surprised these guys haven't bent mentioned, keen to try a pair of the filmer jeans
any one heard of them or have any thoughts on the brand ?
Never heard of this brand either, but lord these look sick: https://televisistarcatalog.com/collections/pants/products/classic-filmer-sunflower-black-denim-white-stitching
If those Enjoi jeans I ordered don't work out, I may consider ordering a pair of these. Would love to see how they look on someone first though!
hit up their IG pages, they look pretty dope, and since i been following them they've blown up a fair bit, theres a few pros getting into it
its quite a small team i think that do it all themselves, and theyll do custom shit as well
they look fucking sick on this dude

Televisi Star is a brand out of Bali and they dude rules! They make everything by hand in at least in the beginning and theyre a really high quality pair of corduroys with a soft interior, really nice to skate.
The Bali skate scene continues is sick. Skate with this crew some time. A lot of great brands here! Televisi star brand pants are fire though!
down to order a pant at some point, hope shipping to europe isn't too expensive, but from experience i won't hold my breath haha. still would be worth to me to support those dudes.
My local back home did some Collab pants with them, dunno if they still have them in stock tho, couldn't find them in their web store. :-\

ASOS ultra baggy jeans are solid. Got a pair and they fit slightly baggier than Polar 93 denims and they are half the price. Only difference really is the waist runs smaller on the ASOS.

Guys, these ain’t loose fit unless you’re super skinny and size up.
These are a regular straight leg fit.
But if you like ‘em, great; just thought it’s weird they’re getting shouted out in the Loose Pants thread...

I checked these out and they don't look baggy in the pics but the comments ranged from "perfect, fit just like Polar Big Boys" to "sending these back, nothing like the pictures, these are waaay too baggy" and then I spotted that they have a sale on now:
Use promo code "HI25" for 25% off EVERYTHING
Plus they have free shipping, so all up they work out to be less than 1/3 the price of big boys.

I'm only posting this as an eulogy...
David Taylor cargos...
It's a Sears brand.
They had an "OLIVE" that for reasons no one understood...were an incredible battleship grey...
They kept their shape and crease about as long as Dickie's and eventually broke into the most comfortable pant shaped devices ever...
They had a half elastic waist so you could even go beltless in a pinch. Buttons for pockets. Straight cut that showed a sexy bit of ankle...lol
$50 so I'd wear a pair till the cuffs frayed and the pockets got those weird little rips in the corners...
As the Sears brand declined they dropped to $35 I would usually buy 2 pair...this would eventually backfire on me because I'd go longer periods not thinking about them.
The final time I happened to check when the 1st pair wore through and they had blown them out at $15 a pair...
So mad...I kept wearing the shredded one and saved the mint one.
Then they magically restocked and had them still for $15...
I ordered 5!
And got burned bad when it turned out that they had changed the manufacturer/supplier and color corrected the OLIVE from the awesome battleship Gray to a boring army green...
The material felt rougher and now pills as it wears and some fool thought that green pants would go well with cream buttons? (the gray ones had charcoal colored buttons.)
Don't get me wrong it's still technically the same cut of pants but they're truly a shadow of the original greys...
R.I.P David Taylor... whoever you were...

I don't have Big Boys but I'd say the ASOS are in between Polar 93 denims and silvertab baggys. I'd imagine Big Boys would be the biggest, because I think the leg opening is 10 inches, and all of these are 9 inches.

Does anybody have any feedback on the Cookman chefs pants? I think I’m going to order a pair here soon. The Cord versions and regular cotton twill look pretty nice. I remember seeing someone post about them, but nothing came up when I searched for it.
Knew nothing of cookman but after your post I checked out the site. Def gonna swoop some up. I’ve been eyeing these https://serviceworks.xyz/ for a while now and since they are in Europe I haven’t ordered. So cookman is a go. Thank you. Gnarred.
Just pulled the trigger on 5 pairs of cookman. They have a decent enough return policy. 5 pair cost the same as 2 Polar surf pants and they have more color options. Will report back once they arrive.
I got you for sure. I usually wear a small in polar sized up to a medium for these after checking the measurements chart. Worst case I end up returning. Best case some sick pants at a decent price.
For anyone wanting to know, the cookmans didn't work out. Even sizing up the legs were still pretty regular fit/slim
I mean they do make a wide cut too...

Coming in hot with two different pants I've purchased based off this thread and my initial impressions.
The navy pair are the Gap Factory Easy Pants. These are size XL and they are definitely too big on my waist but I really like the fit everywhere else. Don't wear a huge amount of tapered pants but I like these ones, they are a cropped fit but I think they hit at a nice point, as I normally cuff my pants anyway.
The green pair are Gramicci G Pants in size XL as well, also way too big on the waist but I like the fit everywhere else so I will just be taking in the waist of both pairs. These are a little thicker but super breathable, and they're REALLY comfy. For reference, I wear a lot of my pants baggy so I wear a 38x30 in Dickies double knee, 38x32 in Levi's Stay Loose and a 38x30 in Levi's 550s are a little less baggy on me than the others but definitely still baggy. I haven't actually worn Polar Surf pants but based on what I've seen and heard of them I would say these both would make a good substitute.

Anyone know how the polar 90’s jeans compare in waist/inseam to polar 93’s?
For example a “polar 93” 32 x 32 will measure more like a 34 x 30
Just wondering if a “polar 90’s jean” will fit the same or different?
Found some of those prune purple 90’s cords for the low. Might jump on em
-
I cannot talk about 93s (I'm still waiting on them to come) but I had a pair of the light wash 90 jeans, 34x32. They were too big for a 34, felt more like a 36 waist.Inseam was perfect, 32 always fit me well and they weren't the exception. Really great fabric. Unfortunately I had already dropped a lot of weight so they were gigantic to me, I'm between 32 and 30 right now, so ended up passing them.
I've seen some 90 purple cords on depop they look good

word thanks dude! So by that logic they kept the same waist (bigger than tagged) and actually shortened the inseam on the 93’s compared to 90’s. Definitely helps me out.

Anyone here get their jeans/pants taken in at the waist to fit better? I found a pair of the sickest Silvertab cargo jeans at the thrift and couldn't turn them down, even though they were two sizes too big for me. I took them to one alteration place by my house and the lady there said she couldn't do it because taking in the waist would mess with the pockets too much. I'm trying to see if there's another place around here that would do it instead...

I've been told that once you go beyond having to take in the waist more than two inches it gets tricky. They will probably have to remove and re stitch the pockets at that point.

I was given some jeans the other day by a friend, they're a beautiful wash and shape but the waist is at least 40" and I'm a 32-34". Inspired by the magenta pants above, and my Santosuosso's, i just added a drawstring.
Check the inside of the waistband, if there's no stitching that's going to get in the way, then cut a small hole either side of the fly (again, on the inside of the waistband), and use a big safety pin to thread a shoelace through.
Silvertabs probably have a patch on the back right, either remove it or just remove the vertical stitching so you can thread it through.

Not sure if they've been talked about, but I just got a pair of the ASOS Barrel Jeans in and man, for 43 bucks, they fit amazing. Bagginess is like in between a Polar 93 and a Polar Big Boy. Fit at the waist and then taper at the bottom of the leg a decent amount. If you wanted em on the extra baggy side, just order a size up in the waist.

These are a 34"x30" and as you can see in the pics below, very similar to the Butter Goods Santosuosso in size 32" so if you're a true 34", i recommend sizing up.

A touch less baggy (and low) in the crotch, and a touch less tapered. About a cm longer, but will probably lose that in the first wash. The denim isn't as thick either so a better option for skating, and 40% the price. Definitely recommend.

Always a discount on Old Navy. Think I paid $20 something...
I went up one size (usually wear 34, got 36)
If you want super baggy go two sizes at least
Can’t beat the price and good light denim for the hot months ahead.

My mid blue pair smelt like shit when they arrived, i mean actual human excrement. It's bizarre. I washed them with some white vinegar and now the smell is gone, and they're a little starchier, and shorter, and the fit is even better. They look so good with the white 1010s, like the perfect late 90's dc video fit. I'm going to grab another pair, maybe two, one in the light blue wash.

Personally, yes. I'm 5'11" and when they first arrived they were a bit longer than i wanted but got a little shorter after the first wash and now they're perfect, i like a little sag.

Tried on some of the Polar surf pants the other day after seeing them in person for the first time, and they were so comfy i couldn't stop thinking about them so ordered a pair yesterday. Super lightweight, feels like you're not even wearing pants. Baggy with the perfect subtle taper. Ordered them online yesterday and they just showed up at work, had to take a quick fit pic

550 34x38 in black and dark stonewash
not sure how much these will shrink in the wash but 36-37 is my ideal length. almost two full sizes up in the waist so i hope they are the right amount of baggy

Tried on some of the Polar surf pants the other day after seeing them in person for the first time, and they were so comfy i couldn't stop thinking about them so ordered a pair yesterday. Super lightweight, feels like you're not even wearing pants. Baggy with the perfect subtle taper. Ordered them online yesterday and they just showed up at work, had to take a quick fit pic

How's the sizing in these and which size did you go for? Deciding between a Large and XL
Technically i should probably wear 32 or 33 but usually buy 34, with a 30 leg. In these i bought Large.

easy! thank you, bro. I think they might be too short for me (6.1 ft) in a large then. XL might just be a never ending sack. Im usually a 34 in length
/these look good tho!

get medium talls, the proportions are just a little bit better than the XLs and only one inch shorter due to slightly shorter rise (so they're less droopy). Inseam is the same.
I'm 6 5 and the XLs are still the best lengthwise but I prefer the way the medium talls fit they just look a bit more proportionate. Large will also be long enough for you most likely.

Thank you, my man! Was looking for a substitute of my dickies (hidden), which unfortunately I cannot find anymore across the net and always wanted to have my hands on a surf pant for summer. I kinda need to put my hope into the large size, as medium tall is nowhere be found in my region anymore.
Is that medium tall size only available in the polar online store? Ive hardly seen that size in any other shops anyway

just ordered my first pairs of levis in over a decade
550 34x38 in black and dark stonewash
not sure how much these will shrink in the wash but 36-37 is my ideal length. almost two full sizes up in the waist so i hope they are the right amount of baggy
550s are great. 38 inseam will be plenty long, like super long but thats what you’re going for it sounds like. They will definitely be baggy since you sized up 2 sizes. I run mine true to size and they feel decently loose. Did you happen to get the stretch levi's by chance? Those ones always feel slightly baggier in my experience.

Yeah I think L should be fine, I'm 5'11" and can wear these with a double cuff, i just prefer them stacked.

Canadian Homies, what is the Mantles brand all about? I got a pair of chinos from the thrift store that were branded Mantles. Did a web search and got only a few hits that were from Canadian websites so I'm assuming it's not a US brand. Do they still make them? Where are they sold? Are they a shitty company? Thanks for anybody's feedback.

these are just the regular denim. wore them today and will probably do 36x38 in the future, they are loose but not realy baggy in 34. satisfied enough with the fit to not make the return though

What is the 38 length like? I get away with wearing a 34 inseam but I’m also 6’6. Thinking about getting at least 36 inseam next time and a wrist size larger than true to size. That would be a 38 x 36 which sounds weird in my head

Got my ASOS Ultra Baggy Jeans in the MAil over the weekend. I ordered 34 width (usually i am 32) and a 30 Length like the dude with the tiagos and the fire Fits!
They fit well baggy for me being 5'7 and pretty true in lenght.
Denim is soft and light wich will be very welcomed if summer ever comes this year.
I Imagine them fitting pretty close to the Butter goods philly jeans in 32.

asos is dirt don't give them your money

I'm in canada and my Asos pants have been in shipping limbo for 2 weeks now. I already regretted giving them money so this is karma I guess

38 length is giving me the right amount of stack. these would be my best looking baggy jeans if they were a bit bigger in the waist but 38x38 sounds insane

i got me some levis 550s in 38 width and they fit just as wide as 34 carhartt WIP simple pants. With Levi's I seem to always have to go one or two sizes up
Regarding ASOS- i just needed a cheap fix instead of paying 100+€ for the ButterGoods jeans. ::)
But yeah, asos seems to be the same fast fashion shit as H&M and all that so likely will not buy anmore anyway

I size up for carhartts but only cause the canvas/denim pants tend to be really stiff and i like the extra room to move. If its a flex pair you may be able to get away with tts

I had some regular fit with the flex and they shrank up nice and young after a few washes. Now they look like Dylan cosplay if I wear them.

Still running the baggy surplus BDU cargo when I want to wear loose pants. I got five pairs in size XL Reg; OG Green Vietnam 'Woodland' Camo, Green Vietnam 'Tiger' Camo, Olive Drab, Dark Gray and Light Gray. All from the Goodwill/Salvation Army for less than $10 a pair. Paired with an elastic woven belt this is the ultimate combo for skating. Unfortunately the town I live in gets brutally unbearably hot in the summer and skating in anything but shorts for 5 months out of the year is not feasible. I will begrudgingly skate in shorts if I have to but definitely not my preference
love the second hand og bdus. i need to look out for another pair. i also have a 10 bucks woodland pair still going strong after a decade. i'd rather have a busted real one than a cheap new 20 bucks replica. they don't really cut it and often lose their seams very easily.

Bought them in large. Most comfy pants I do own. Fit could be a tiny bit larger as I also like to stack, but perfect otherwise 👌 thank you

do gramicci pants get any love in this thread? i have a pair of the "loose tapers" and they definitely aren't my first choice for skate pants but as chillers they are great. the standard inseam for them is a little short. the OG G-pants seem to be a decent choice...mine are flexy too which is great.

I had a pair of thrifted gramiccis a couple years ago that were huge, they were pretty sick but they were size XL and the inseam was way too long for me so i sold em for way less than i should have

Gap Easy Pants, they’re super light for the summer and barely feel like you’re wearing pants. They’re baggy enough with an elastic waist, but they still look like whatever brand chinos/ camos you’re currently considering. Theyre baggy, but not too baggy if you know what I mean. They’re on sale at the outlet stores right now too, just picked up a bunch of them and I’m super happy. The mobility that you have in them is way better than any stretch chino material, it’s like skating in swoosh pants.

Comparison of Polar 93 jeans to Volcom Billow jeans. First pic is Polar, second Volcom and in the third you can see the Volcoms from behind the Polars on the floor. Polar are size 30/32 and Volcom are 30. 30 is what I usually wear so I think both fit me true to size. Volcom ones are a bit wider than the 93s but still not Big Boy category.
I am 186 cm tall (6’1” I think) and in tight pants I usually want 34” inseam but depending on what kind of a fit I’m after I can be cool with shorter too.
I really like the Polars and am keeping these Volcoms also even though they feel slightly too baggy for me right now but I’m still kinda getting used to wearing baggy pants. :)
This clip inspired me to get the Volcom Billows. I think that’s what Jorge is wearing here and they look awesome to me:

i posted an example fit of these a bit ago because i noticed they were getting no love but i really fuck with the pair i got off ebay for half price, the g pants are super flexible and while they're not ultimate loose they definitely are nice for the summer.

Any one try the carhartt relaxed tapered fit? Any info on them or carhartt in general?
I don’t know about the tapered fit but I’ve been into a Carhartt buying spree pant wise so I’ll give my 2 cents. I got like 4 pairs in less than half a year and been rotating them daily. (I’m usually a 30w/32L for reference)
1 pair of double knees in nylon (30/32).
The collab with PoP trading co, relaxed straight fit with basically no taper. Love the look but a bit too stiff and sweaty for skating IMO. The twill/corduroy is probably better to skate in...
1 pair of master pants in twill (30/32).
To me a best fitting answer to Dickies 574’s and maybe my fav skate pants right now. Relaxed straight fit that tapers a bit under the knee. They broke in super quick and are mad comfortable.
and 2 pairs of Simple pants, one in Light Denim (30/32) and other in Twill (31/32)... I thought they should fit the same, but I found the Twill to feel a bit slimmer, so I got a size up than usual and now they fit and look really similar to the Master pants I got. Actually maybe a tiny bit more tapered at the bottom. The Denim version looks and feels baggier to me dunno why, but I love them like that.
I think I will keep buying Carhartt pants for a while...
I think I'm on pair #8 of owning Master pants; best pants, period. Most of them I ordered straight from the site but I have scored on Grailed where I actually got two pairs for 70, shipped, already hemmed to my size (unbelievable).
Now I did just place an order, one of which are Master pants in my size but I also snagged two pairs of Newels in black; are they comparable to the Master as the description read the same, just other materials which I know can be a game changer. The Taper on the Master is perfect & I am hoping for the same on the Newel.
Carhartt WIP for the win, regardless...

Hey loose fit pant pals, I've got a couple pairs that are waaaay too big so im trying to sell them.
Levis stay loose, 32x32. Real nice comfy pair of baggies in great shape. Wore them for about 1 month
Levi's Silver tab, 34x30. dark blue wash, super deep pockets all around. Very excellent shape with a small, half inch slit in the back waistband where it looks like the previous owner removed a dye tag from a store. These are some true big boys, looking like that hella baggy polar pant stuff.
Dm if you wanna see pics and figure out some payments/trades.
-
Anyone here get their jeans/pants taken in at the waist to fit better? I found a pair of the sickest Silvertab cargo jeans at the thrift and couldn't turn them down, even though they were two sizes too big for me. I took them to one alteration place by my house and the lady there said she couldn't do it because taking in the waist would mess with the pockets too much. I'm trying to see if there's another place around here that would do it instead...
A good tailor can make it happen. Maybe not drop them two whole sizes but they can fit 'em to a more proper state.

What’s our opinion on the butter goods denim jeans they been drippin lately? I have some of the new “apple denim” shorts and pants and the QC is all over the fuckin place man. Loose threads for days on the stitching everywhere lol. Don’t think I will buy anymore pants from them even though I like the styles. The herringbone pants for instance look a lot better than the denims as far as QC from photos I’ve seen.
-
I liked the look of the apple denim, but their size chart didn't have enough information (rise, leg opening, inseam, thigh size, etc.) for me to spend $150 on jeans from Australia that you can't really return. I emailed them asking for measurements and they didn't respond, so I moved on from the idea.

I didn’t want to join the bandwagon with the Polar Big Boys but my current job has aloud me to buy some. They are the best fitting jeans for sure. Xlarge fits me great.

Thrifted some Levi's 560's the other day and damn, do I love the fit. I sized wayy up in the waist and it feels a bit funny putting them on, but they don't get all cinched when I wear a belt and the semi-rigid denim + small leg opening creates a really nice stack.
These are a 36×32

How about trackpants / windpants / other? I see a lot of like, weird knock off streetwear stuff for breakdancers or some shit with weird tapering or branded Adidas / Nike stuff. I like the Helas stuff but it's a bit pricy. Butter Goods stuff is also great. I also have the illustration pattern Polar Surf pants that I love but got them on sale for Black Friday.
Mollusk makes great lounge/surf pants too. I bet I can find cheaper stuff but I'd be inching towards festival hippie territory
maybe. Hiking pants are great but can have a weird, normal-guy looking fit.
I bought theres sick hand woven pants in Mexico for $40. They're big and wide but I'm afraid to ruin them.
I don't really know what I'm trying to say, but I see mostly chinos/cargos/jeans in this thread and was to see more recommendations in the categories mentioned above.

Nike make some of the best cross over track pants/pants ever.. ACG stuff. My outlet has stacks of them atm. The most comfortable things to skate in ever. And they are super baggy. One of the ones I have zip off into shorts as well. ACG stuff rules.

I took some photos of the ACG pants if anyone is interested. The green ones are called the Trail pants and the other are just zip off trail pants. They come with a super adjustable waist and really good quality zips on the pockets. They both come in a heap of colours. But be warned.. the zip off ones are baggy as fuck. They put big boys to shame so maybe size down.
But yeah, both are super comfortable to skate in (going back to jeans is a bummer). They are on sale on Mr Porter etc. If anyone needs help getting some and are in AUS holler.

People talk about my 'big boys' whenever I wear the ASOS pants, so the fit is fine. But yeah fuck ASOS, instantly regretted and won't buy again.

Yeah I didn’t know anything about them I just typed in “baggy jeans” into the search engine and they came up. I saw the price and tripped out! So I gave it a shot.
You gotta wonder about how much clothing waste is just filling up the earth… So much disposable clothing. I feel bad for all the stuff I have.. fuck.

Just got a pair of Levi 569s the other day in one waist size up. Copped another pair of stay loose as well. The 569s are definitely comparable to stay loose I’d say but slightly less baggy in some places. Solid fit though. Stay looses are my current favorite though.
For more tech pants I’ve been wearing these north face cargo track pants hybrid and they are amazing. Loose fit not baggy unless you were to size up

Yes, although he actually did it switch! But here’s a cool regular one, minute 1:50. By the way, did you have a chance yet to grab that Engelbert Strauss two pack ?

First there’s the big boys Xlarge
Then the ASOS baggy on top of the polars. Not much difference but the polar has a wider leg opening at the bottom

Then the ultra baggy ASOS on top
And a shot of the waist
I’m 6’2 - 6’3 and I like to cuff so I get 34 long. Big Boys are the perfect length if you don’t like cuffing and are as tall as me. Hope this helps y’all 👍

Then a pair of the 91 XLARGE (the actual brand) on top for an example. Size 38 the biggest the have. The XLARGE pants are like the Polar surf pants I’d imagine at $90

Oh and I can do a comparison of both ASOS’s baggiest and the Big Boys if anyone wants since I just got BBs
ASOS are ok. But they’re waist is too small even on the biggest. Plus they are probably killing an animal every second:(
I’m interested in a comparison!

Fucking with these carpet co c-Star jeans HEAVILY. Love both washes and the fit is in between a polar 93 and a big boy. The fatsmacks kinda grossed me out with the monster on the leg lmao glad I went with both washes in the c-star. Go cop them while you can folks. Better denim than what polar is putting out I can assure you. The denim feels way better

What are some good pants below $35? I'm looking for some light material chinos but that aren't poofy at the bottom. I feel like Dickies are too stiff and constricting.

$35 is tough because Carhartts are typically $40USD and are about the best deal around. If you can stretch your budget, the relaxed fit dungarees might work out for you. It sounds counterintuitive but the relaxed fit have less bottom poof then the original fit.
The stiffness you're mentioning in Dickies is mostly down to the 60/40 poly cotton blend so I'd imagine going with a higher cotton blend or all cotton would solve that problem for you no matter what kind of pants you look at.

These pants are totally misadvertised.
I rarely buy pants because most are too tight in the legs on me.
These are dope. They are super thin and rip stop with stretch. I got them for summer nights and they are perfect from 60-80 F.
Too thin for skateboarding unless you know you won’t fall.
I got xl and they are baggy around the waist with a long rise and below the waist sag.
They remind me of girl jeans from 1995. The legs fit normal but you get extra bag in the waist and crotch. They are not skinny at all.
They also have belt loops.
I wish my boy @diocletian was here so we could rejoice together.
I’m buying 2 of each dark color—can’t fuck with light color pants.

Something that made Polar pants great was the size charts, which they seem to have now updated to not be good anymore. They gave such detailed measurements on the pants that you could be pretty sure of how they'd fit you, especially if you measured a pair of your own pants to compare.
They used to be like this (useful):

if it’s the same cut as the 40’s pants they should be right on par with the look and fit. I have a 32 x 32 40’s pant in black and they are sick. High rise, wide leg pants. On some Gilbert Crockett style for sure.

it’s stretch moleskin if you’re talking about those blue ones. Slight taper down to the ankles, get your normal waist size. If you’re talking about the new work pants those are more like a Carhartt wip double knee pant. Get your normal waist size also

The stay loose carpenters fit a little different to the normal stay loose jeans.
Carpenters taper a bit less, and are a bit shorter if I recall correctly (don't quote me on this)

Lots of baggy pants available right now between the recent polar drop and butter goods. Just ordered a pair of the santosuosso denim one waist size up and two pairs of big boys. Got the orange black big boys in the other day and they feel a lot better fitting than big boys I’ve tried on in the past. Feel slightly shorter in length and a little more tapered. Still on the fence about keeping them. Super excited for the santossuossos to come in. Been wanting a pair forever

Just got a pair yesterday and they go hard. Imo better than polar jeans and any other pair I've tried. Even if you aren't into super baggy pants you can get a size 30 waist and the fit will still be a nice loose fit. This website has a good example - https://junkyard.com/en/p/butter-goods-jeans---santosuosso-black-jeans-loose-men/7297039_F990

Mine just came in today. I never had the 40s, but the 44s seem to have a similar fit and are exactly what I've been looking for. Definitely a Gilbert approved fit, wide leg opening and high rise (9.5 LO, ~12.5 rise on the 32/32) very similar to the Leigh Chinos that Gilbert designed.
My only gripe is that the side pockets are that weird structure where they aren't quite deep enough for things to fit comfortably, so your phone sits more on the front of your leg than the side. A small thing, but a pet peeve of mine.

highly recommend although they can be a little pricey
if they ever make some new color ways i’ll definitely size up to a size L

Just got my Santosousso denim in the mail. Instantly my new favorite. I’ve been wanting something nice and loose up too but smaller leg openings and these are perfect. Denim is really good quality and the drawstring is such a nice touch. One complaint is they aren’t quite as long as I was expecting them to be but they’re adequate, I’m just super tall and long legs so most won’t have that issue. Pockets are super deep and nice which is something I never hear mentioned.

Anyone else order 93’s from this season Polar drop? Just tried mine on and the sizing definitely doesn’t line up with previous seasons. Ordered 30x30 like I usually do. They typically fit like 34x30, this season fit like 29x28. Anyway, something to keep in mind. Doing a return and re order.

I got a 32x32 and a 32x30. The length on the 32x32s felt decently longer than 32 and the 32x30s were surprisingly short. Rocking with the longer ones. The waist on the 32 felt more like a 33/34 which was what I was hoping for…

got every color from this drop (lol at my wallet) the blue/blacks and orange/blacks definitely were tighter in the waist than the other pairs. All were 32 x 32. Prolly from the wash/dye process. I also just come to expect the inseam to be around 30” when it’s labeled 32 so no issue in that department

damn, i bought some second hand track pants today. they must be the softest pants i ever had. the color is awesome, too. kind of lavender. they are baggy as fuck. i wore them for work, which must be the worst occasion to wear pants like this in, and got a lot of compliments for my bold colorchoice. or maybe they were making fun of me. either way, i dig these pants. they are very muskapants-ish. i have to get more of these, the local second hand store has a bunch of cool ones.
ill post a pic in the fit thread after i've washed them.
starting to think i want to wear nothing but swishy pants for the rest of my life.

just got a the “og pants” from magenta in the mail today
fit very similar to levis silvertabs with a lose / baggy fit in the thigh knee area with a smaller leg opening
stoked on these since the outseam on the size M is only 100cm (i’m 5’7)
highly recommend although they can be a little pricey
if they ever make some new color ways i’ll definitely size up to a size L
https://shop.magentaskateboards.com/products/og-pants-black-denim-782
For real, I have a thin waist and am tall too and its always disappointing when pants you order come in too short. I remember buying some polar surf pants in M and they were so tight... The fit is ok but I really wish brands would measure everything to a T, I ordered some 90's pants in 30x32 as I expected the sizing to be similar to the 93's. Nope, turns out 90's fit like levis, meaning im actually a 30x34! But I do get that the average guy is on the shorter side so it makes sense brands tend to size down their clothes, its even worse in asia hah :D

These bull denim jeans I made are one of my favorite pairs, and definitely one of the loosest I own. Been in school since May and too busy to make more pants but can't wait until I'm done so I can get back to it. I've got a pair of Big Boys I borrowed from a homie which I'm going to copy for peeps who want that fit as well.
https://www.instagram.com/p/CNdsPyOF8Hl/ (https://www.instagram.com/p/CNdsPyOF8Hl/)
Nope, just use a tight zig zag stitch for the main button hole, or use the actual button hole function on the machine. Only the cheapest, most basic sewing machines don't have a button hole function. My old domestic was only $100 and has it.

Anyone else order 93’s from this season Polar drop? Just tried mine on and the sizing definitely doesn’t line up with previous seasons. Ordered 30x30 like I usually do. They typically fit like 34x30, this season fit like 29x28. Anyway, something to keep in mind. Doing a return and re order.
Definitely. Dark blue 30/30 were much tighter and shorter than my orange/black 30/30 and the two pairs I got from former drops. Fabric is also much lighter on the dark blue. Still fitting, but not as FLY as the others.

I didn't intend for that to sound snarky - sorry. No, industrial machines don't have that feature since industrial machines only perform one stitch, for the most part. I use an industrial straight stitch, and a good domestic serger, then my old reliable Brother domestic for stuff like button holes etc.

hey slap pals, i know this is a bit off topic from the current convo but im wondering if any of you guys can help me with sizing for polar surf pants? ive seen a lot of cool clips of people wearing them and the lighter weight, roomier thighs, and elastic waist are big selling points to me. ive been waiting to pull the trigger on them for a couple weeks now and wanted to make sure i get the right size. I go 40 tts for dickies carpenter jeans and 42 for baggier fit. Would i want to go L or XL? i would think XL for the baggy fit but i want to confirm with someone whos actually worn them first. looking at the olive colour.
thanks a lot pals, hopefully someone can help me pull the trigger on these pants yo

All good man, and a cheap home sewer at that price point with the buttonhole function would totally be worth the money; Ima need to look into that...

I bought some the other day so you can use me as a reference. I’m usually in between sizes 30 and 32 waist on pants, depending on brands, which would be the S or M for the surf pants… got the M and they fit perfect! I can even rock them without tying the waist cord and they don’t fall down my ass because of the waist elastic. They are super comfortable and look really good, highly recommended!
-
pretty much on a carhartt simple pant kick. i am a 33 or so in levis but there i usually size up. Carhartt would fit me fine in 31 waist i guess but i size up to 34 so they feel a lot looser and i just like the way they wear in more compared to dickies material. The slight taper and roomy thighs on em make them look hella good!
-
Ok. Not digging the stay loose levis somehow and sent 'em back. They fit unproportionally wide on the leg and tight on the butt (compared to my carhartt simple & single pants). Bought the biggest size available at 36/34 though.
Thanks to the fella, who helped me out on this one though!

Grab XL. I'm wearing the Santosuosso in 32, usually buy jeans in 34 (36 if necessary to get sufficient bagginess) and I bought the surf pants in L. I could have bought M but prefer the bagginess of L. If you're sizing up to 42 to get the bagginess you want then L will probably hug your thighs

Do all big boy jeans from polar have pretty small pockets? Got a size small from most recent run in a light blue wash and the pockets and waist area feel really tight . Wear small in all of their other style pants and don’t have issues . Just feels pretty tight all around the hip area with these especially with a phone or wallet in your pocket
-
Thrifted some Levi's 560's the other day and damn, do I love the fit. I sized wayy up in the waist and it feels a bit funny putting them on, but they don't get all cinched when I wear a belt and the semi-rigid denim + small leg opening creates a really nice stack.
These are a 36×32

Anyone have any punk and yo jeans? Ordered a size 32 today was hoping it measures larger than 16” across the waist like most skate brands do these days. Any additional info would be dope about the jean’s fit. Thanks

'Volcom Billow Denim' are pretty good, fit similar to the Polar Karate pants, looser than the Surf pants.

Something that made Polar pants great was the size charts, which they seem to have now updated to not be good anymore. They gave such detailed measurements on the pants that you could be pretty sure of how they'd fit you, especially if you measured a pair of your own pants to compare.
They used to be like this (useful):

Got those Enjoi Fader jeans in the mail today and I'm pretty surprised at how nice the denim is. It's very soft and broken in feeling while still being substantially thick. Since I'm in between sizes and sized down, the jeans also aren't as baggy as I thought they'd be, but I'm down for that. My only complaint is that the front pockets are narrow and hard to stick my hand into, but they still fit everything I need. I think I'll be keeping these.
Here's some fit pics if anyone's interested. Excuse the moccasins too, they were a present from my partner's parents and are comfy af as house shoes.

Here’s a tricky one for the real pants experts. I’m searching for some baggy like hybrid pants. Kinda like hiking/track pants. Inspiration for this would be deedz he’s always rocking the sickest pants like this. My issue is they have to be long because I’m tall. I’ll put some clips for reference of what I’m looking for.

Just got my Santosousso denim in the mail. Instantly my new favorite. I’ve been wanting something nice and loose up too but smaller leg openings and these are perfect. Denim is really good quality and the drawstring is such a nice touch. One complaint is they aren’t quite as long as I was expecting them to be but they’re adequate, I’m just super tall and long legs so most won’t have that issue. Pockets are super deep and nice which is something I never hear mentioned.
Also here’s a clip of my loose plants role model Brad Cromer rocking the Philly jeans

Pretty sure we covered this a few pages back but ACG is your go to. I mean, they make to dopest pants, then when it gets hot they turn into shorts. And they are BAGGY AS FUG too. I’m lucky cause my Nike outlet may as well be an ACG shop because of how much stuff they have for the very low low.

By far the baggiest jeans I have I had to get from the states. 42” Dickies carpenter jeans. I got them taken in heaps and they are still huge. I think I ordered from a big and tall site though. I am 6’3 and 105kgs.

You're asking about the Enjoi Fader jeans, right? I actually returned my size 28s for a size 30 and like them a lot. They're baggy as hell, taper just a little bit, and are high waisted. I think they're either a 29 or 30 inseam but feel longer because of how long the crouch area is. I'm 6'1 and they don't flood on me. I will be honest, you get what you pay for and they're not the best quality pants that I've had, but you can't really find anything else new that hits the mark that these jeans hit. Every other company sells similar jeans for $100+.

Yup I meant the fader, that’s for the input. I pulled the trigger on the black ones in 34, I’m usually a 32/32 so hopefully they long enough, I am just trying to find a cheaper alternative to the 93s, love the fit and that pant so much

Coming in hot with two different pants I've purchased based off this thread and my initial impressions.
The navy pair are the Gap Factory Easy Pants. These are size XL and they are definitely too big on my waist but I really like the fit everywhere else. Don't wear a huge amount of tapered pants but I like these ones, they are a cropped fit but I think they hit at a nice point, as I normally cuff my pants anyway.
The green pair are Gramicci G Pants in size XL as well, also way too big on the waist but I like the fit everywhere else so I will just be taking in the waist of both pairs. These are a little thicker but super breathable, and they're REALLY comfy. For reference, I wear a lot of my pants baggy so I wear a 38x30 in Dickies double knee, 38x32 in Levi's Stay Loose and a 38x30 in Levi's 550s are a little less baggy on me than the others but definitely still baggy. I haven't actually worn Polar Surf pants but based on what I've seen and heard of them I would say these both would make a good substitute.

I have the 93's, love the straight-non tapered leg but want the washed black look of the Santosussos... but reading descriptions and seeing, there is a taper. And pricing is better on the Santos...
Only a jet black version of 93's out right now

I'm usually a size 36 or 38 depending on the brand and how I want them to fit... XL Polar Surf Pants work well for me. I got size 36 Polar '93s and they fit, but not real baggy on me - more like a loose/straight fit, like Dickies 874's. XL Big Boys would probably work - the measurements say they're just a little bigger than the XL surf pants. Polar recently updated their size charts (to make them basically useless), but the old ones are easy to find. Best thing to do is take a pair of pants that you currently own, measure them, and compare them to size charts:
(https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0072/5152/5679/products/PolarBigBoysizeguide_2a4d76dc-1908-45af-890a-16c63f4daf27_1024x1024@2x.jpg?v=1604061654)

I'd like to try the Butter Santosuosso jeans, but their size chart isn't very good (no rise or inseam listed) and there's nowhere near me that I can try them on.

6'2" 175 lbs, Lee Men's Performance Series Extreme Comfort Slim Pant, 34x34
Those jeans and chinos are pretty much the best fitting pants I've ever found. Probably not the best for skating as the stretch material wears out relatively easily. Pure comfort though, and the best medium for me between slim fitting jeans and baggy jeans.

Carhartt Canvas Work Dungaree B151 fit exactly like this. I prefer the Relaxed Fit Washed Twill Dungaree because they are baggy but not flowing. Both are $40 US and all cotton.

Are Carhartt wip pants completely different fits than the standard workwear Carhartt’s? I like the look of the fit on the black pair in this post but I don’t want to spend the premium price for carhart wip. I need that baggy taper look.

I looked at the pants that were on the WIP site and it seems like they have a lot more variety in the fits that they are offering. Some taper, some are straight leg and I didn't see any that said "straight leg opening fits over boots" which I think give Carhartt's their distinct wide leg stack.
As far as WIP in general, my understanding was that it was a way for Carhartt to sell their gear in Europe, given the restrictions on selling foreign goods over domestic, combined with restrictions on who can go into a workwear store and buy a pair of pants. In some countries, you'd need some kind bona fides showing that you were for sure gonna use the pants for a job. I think it's caught on in the streetwear world and they have branched out and now offer all different kinds of designs.
Short answer is, if your in the US, their stuff is readily available all over and pretty cheap so there's no reason to import WIP unless you just really love a particular piece.

Local has the white ones. Waist and thighs seem good but then they taper pretty aggressively toward the ankle from the knee. Sizing up helps but then the thighs get bulgy. Just my 2¢

Besides that I usually just wear dickies jeans. I'm so hyped loose is back, just so comfy.

A lot of that Louie Lopez gear is actually pretty sick
Lately I’ve been wearing Levi’s workwear fit which is an all around wider 505 silhouette
And wrangler relaxed fit cargos from target

Picked up those enjoi fader denim, they are super soft which is nice, couple of loose threads and stuff but nice pants otherwise, look good in my 1010s, picked the light blue pair as well

How is the pocket sizing? Could you fit a can of beer in the front pockets?
Not like I'm skating with beer in my front pockets, but I hate it when the pockets are too small.

What kinda beer? You may be able to get a 12 oz in there but the pockets are smaller than their polar counterparts, I feel like I could get a tall boy in my polar 93s…then maybe a beer ( bad joke, I know), but the enjoi pants have smaller pockets, I can fit my hand in them but you ain’t getting much else, definitely not the pants you want if your trying to play pocket pool
-
I can confirm that tall boys fit in the pockets of my polar pants

Yeah I can also confirm that the Enjoi pockets are on the smaller side. It's hard for me to fit my wallet, keys, and passport (my ID is expired lol) all in one pocket.

For this who want a relaxed taper, but not tooooo gangster; Levi’s 841 athletic taper SIZED UP.
Similar to a 550 that’s sized down (but I can’t fit that waist)

Butter Goods Santosousso denim is what you want if you’re looking for big pockets. They’re nice and deep. The size 42 waist version can fit a full bottle of henny

Big fan of the 550 and tellason Ankara fit in a size up in the waist. And recently got a pair of volcome ‘substance’ jean. They run big in the waist. And have 18 leg opening.

Yea I got these on the wish list, I’ve been sizing up in the enjoi ones, but I’ll prolly get my true waist size in the phillys, they are the baggiest

Skated some X-Large pants, lasted 2 sessions and blew out.
What are some other options other than Dickies available in Australia?

Here are the Wrangler Cargos I mentioned plus some huge Volcom shorts I have been running a lot lately as it's blazing hot where I live. The brown cargos are 38 x 32 and the black cargos are 40 x 30 but the measurements are exactly the same on both pairs LOL. No wonder this stuff winds up at the Goodwill, most pants company's sizing are all over the place
Yeah same as mine but mine are black
Love them cause no stretch in the waist just chopped them short and skate in them all summer cause of the lightweight fabric
-
I got the Artform carpenter jeans. They're really short and not baggie. Also the pockets are tiny and the material feels kinda cheap. These were a spur of the moment $94 purchase that I regret.

Damn man I'm sorry to hear that. That's why I'm always nervous to buy things online unless I've had said items before.
-
Just got in the light blue denim enjoi pants, they are a lighter material than the black ones so prolly better for summer, they are tapered but not as much as I like, that is okay though they fit everywhere else fine, so I’ll just take in the hem, I have a pair of polar 93s that are perfect so I’ll use those as a guide and take in these two accordingly
-
I keep finding these pants and they're amazing. Light, durable, and a perfect fit. Here's a pair in 34x30, unfortunately the seller took the worst photos of all time.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mens-Size-34-x-30-Gray-Honors-Slacks-/174026235405?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0 (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mens-Size-34-x-30-Gray-Honors-Slacks-/174026235405?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0)
I bought a big pair of 38x30's and they're my favorite pants. Easy to wear with a belt and they don't bunch up bad like denim when you cinch em. I have a 30 in waist and these things still look good on me... Don't know where/when this "Honors" brand came from, but I have three pairs now I've either thrifted or found online, they're the best. Keep an eye out and try these on if you find some!

I bought these as well but its hit or miss. I bought two sizes one was too small so I gave them to my girl and the pockets were tiny. The larger size fit perfectly and the pockets were regular sized. I think these just have poor quality control.

Anyone have any luck or experience with 90’s Calvin Klein “easy jeans”. Seem to be a lot like baggy style Silvertabs, great quality minus the price and limited availability.

made an account for this sole purpose, any recommendations for a good pair of loose jet black baggy pants? Most websites I have perused only seem to sell models in faded black or a weird aged, washed out grey. Unfortunately I’ve foolishly purchased a pair of reclaimed vintage baggy jeans from ASOS before getting to know the questionable ethics of the brand, so I am therefore looking to send them back and purchase from a more skate oriented brand that does not mistreat their employees. I’m willing to spend more coin if they go to a company supporting skaters and a community ofc, open to any suggestions, thanks in advance :-)

Join depop and look for levis orange label 550 or 560. There usually a surplus of those in a nice black that isn’t too washed out. Etsy is a good place to look too. Always size up with vintage clothing though. And don’t buy anything from ASOS. No disrespect to anyone that does but the quality is terrible.

No one ever posting fit pics in these fr

Polar 93 jeans are available in pitch black currently. They had the big boys in pitch black also but I think that might’ve been a few drops back as I didn’t find them available anymore with a quick google search.
The 93s are my favorite baggy jeans. The quality is also very good. I’ve slammed a bunch on my pitch black ones and tore up my skin quite much but jeans look like nothing happened. Big boys are too baggy for me.

Yh the material and stitching on polar jeans are excellent. However they don’t carry my size (29x32) and i cannot justify a 115€ hole in my account for one pair of jeans. Not only that, but you can’t tailor them because the seat is too narrow, and I refuse to shrink them and waste untold litres of water. However, I was looking at volcom extra baggies yesterday, they seem like a good « budget » (who am I kidding anyway) option and they have my waist size! My local skate shop also carries them and I prefer spending my moolaah locally, someone most likely already mentioned them ITT but I joined mère hours ago, if someone owns a pair, I’d love some feedback :)

Not sure which model you’re talking about. I posted a comparison of the 93s with the Volcom Billow jeans a few months back with photos and all. Light blue ones though. They are very similar. The Volcom jeans are slightly baggier and the pockets in them aren’t very deep. They seem like nice jeans also but I haven’t got as much experience skating and slamming in them as I do on my 93s. Volcom jeans with stretch I’ve torn a lot over the years. I still like them very much but maybe the durability isn’t the best out there. That might be due to the stretch though.

Yes billow pants, those are the ones. Baggier is perfect, I’m really looking for some big groovy pants for my big shoes and big shirts ;D. Thanks for the info, hope the pockets can still hold a phone and wallet tho…

Enjoi makes a budget big boy, I used the taper on my butter philly jeans to tailor them, now I have enjoi jeans that taper, but if your looking for a good budget big boy that has a solid black wash, enjoi makes a good pair of jeans, the leg opening is too big for me, I measured 9.5 on them, but after I tapered them…perfect

I have an iPhone 8 without a case and I prefer to not keep it in the pocket when skating with these pants. Presses on my hip (or whatever the part is called where your leg turns into the side of your stomach) a bit too much when pushing. I was actually thinking of taking them to a tailor to have them deepen the pockets. No idea what the ppl at Volcom were thinking of with the pockets.

Volcom jeans with stretch I’ve torn a lot over the years. I still like them very much but maybe the durability isn’t the best out there. That might be due to the stretch though.
Yes billow pants, those are the ones. Baggier is perfect, I’m really looking for some big groovy pants for my big shoes and big shirts ;D. Thanks for the info, hope the pockets can still hold a phone and wallet tho…
I have an iPhone 8 without a case and I prefer to not keep it in the pocket when skating with these pants. Presses on my hip (or whatever the part is called where your leg turns into the side of your stomach) a bit too much when pushing. I was actually thinking of taking them to a tailor to have them deepen the pockets. No idea what the ppl at Volcom were thinking of with the pockets.
Oh that’s a real bummer. One reason I love big pants are the large, roomy pockets, this really put a dent in my enthusiasm.

made an account for this sole purpose, any recommendations for a good pair of loose jet black baggy pants? Most websites I have perused only seem to sell models in faded black or a weird aged, washed out grey. Unfortunately I’ve foolishly purchased a pair of reclaimed vintage baggy jeans from ASOS before getting to know the questionable ethics of the brand, so I am therefore looking to send them back and purchase from a more skate oriented brand that does not mistreat their employees. I’m willing to spend more coin if they go to a company supporting skaters and a community ofc, open to any suggestions, thanks in advance :-)
Here is the link https://www.asos.com/fr/reclaimed-vintage/reclaimed-vintage-inspired-jean-baggy-style-annees-90-noir-pur-delave/prd/22989245?clr=noir&colourwayid=60442255&SearchQuery=jean+reclaimed+vintage
I feel you on this. I re-dyed an old pair of black jeans that faded to grey and they came out looking brand new and very dark. Worth a shot if you have any old jeans lying around and it's a lot cheaper than buying a new pair.

So stoked on the latest double knee Dickies. Baggy as fuxk.
And I found these Adidas trackies with cargo pockets that are so big! I have to fold the waist line over and they are still massive. So comfortable to skate in

Got a pot of these yesterday one size up from normal.
Good quality and stretchy, which is nice, because it’s 2021 and I can’t deal with this 100% cotton business everyone is going back to right now.
Went one waist size up from normal. Both sizes felt fine so I went with the looser one.
18 months of work from home means when I go out in public, my clothes aren’t allowed to touch my skin anymore, so I’m psyched on these reasonably priced pantaloons.

Been using regular fit carhartt pants for work but recently got the loose fit dungaree since that’s all the local western place had, love how baggy these are and comfortable to wear while skating.

I’m in Australia. What size? I’m 36-38” but have to go at least 40”. 42” is best.
Diddy also makes some of my favourite jeans. These were 42x36!!! They were so long! I swear longer than 36”. Cut and hemmed them and I’m of to the races!

My black Reclaimed Vintage/ASOS black pants arrived and they’re good. They have a real OG fit, sit super high on the waist, pretty much where your belly button is, and have a slight taper. Jet black colour, which I’m very pleased by and roomy pockets too. Overall I’m really pleased with them, but if you guys want to buy some, I’d recommend going one size up at waist, I took a size 30 since the website told me so, even though I’m a 32 usually and they’re a tad too small, nothing a few wears won’t fix though they’ll probably loosen up with time.

I bought a pair of 560's on eBay not too long ago but I never had the 550s so can't help there. I didn't size up and they're still baggy for me. I did end up ordering a pair of the Louie's so I will report back next week with a comparison.

Yep. The excess of baggy is over and now people are slimming down a bit, I imagine we’re in a for a long period of straight leg pants, I’ll still wear my baggy jeans for a while though.

Surprised I haven’t seen any quasi utility pants love on here. Seriously great skate pants. Get your true to waist size for a good bag and size up for the ultimate bag

So I usually run too slim for this thread but I saw these the other day and kind of want them. Can you comment on the quality/weight of the material? I find a lot of skate pants are too lightweight for my liking.
-
Quality/weight is on par with most brands 12 oz cotton canvas. I wear a shit ton of Carhartt WIP 12 oz cotton canvas and these are literally the same quality for half the price. 32’s fit like 33’s or 34’s. 34’s fit like 36’s, etc.
They retail $92-96 but ccs has all the colors and 20% off ends today

Watching the Brad Cromer rough cut this week got me itching for some Silvertabs. Just trynna look even half as steezy as Brad. Ordered a pair today on eBay.

I got these for like $8 - they're nice and light canvas, double-knee, no branding. Design is identical to Carhartt basically. I'm into them and wish they had other colours.

Comparing the Volcom Louie Lopez (32x32) and the Levi 560 (33x32). The Volcom jeans are about an inch wider in the leg and leg opening than the Levis making them a bit baggier. Have similar taper too. Fit feels about the same overall.
The main difference which will skew the comparison is the Volcom jeans are brand new and haven’t been broken in or washed yet and the Levi’s are used which have been washed many many times over the years.
I do think they’re a good substitute for each other though if anyone is having a hard time finding the Levi’s in their size.

I really like my 560's. I think I'm gonna hunt for some more while people are going for the Silvertabs. 560's seem to have more of a taper so they're still pretty loose, but I don't think mine look too crazy TTS.
I also ordered a pair of those Habitat cords. The fit in the leg was great but the waist felt small kinda like Dickies. I sent them back to size up so hopefully they're not that much bigger.

i do like the 550s fit in a w42. Right now I fix the bigger waist problem by putting a lace, which still leaves bulges at the back and/or front. Does anybody here sizes up multiple sizes also and does know a good way to tailor these without loosing its baggy fit?
Once I've chosen to give a pair to the tailor and he tailored it so weirdly that it was hella skinny in the thighs and lost its intended fit.
Might just stick to the lace trick rather..
-
If you’re gonna get them taken in at the waist it best to only get it done slightly. It will still bunch (but not as bad) and still keep its baggy-ness. And a thick, wide leather belt. Works for me.
-
So you're somewhat going down from a w42 to a w38 and the rest is handled by a belt?
Thanks buddy
-

im not sure but i heard more than two inches around the waist starts to mess with the structure of the pockets etc. so you might only be able to take it down to a 40. i would suggest cutting a small hole on the inside seam of the waist and running a shoe string through the inside hem until you get to the other side of the botton. it will scrunch more evenly and then if you need extra tightness, you can throw a belt on too

Thought about doing so, but would need to remove the Levis patch, which somewhat bothered me as its quite iconic for the pants itself.
Wouldn't mind doing it for a more comfy fit, tho

I had the complete opposite experience, fit was all over the place, had to break them in for a solid year and many washes, the material felt very weak and tore through rapidly with moderate skating… I’ve worn them for 2 years now and I had fun repairing it with fun patches, the fit is great now, and I skate them a lot, but I’m still sour I paid 55€ for them and had to break them in for so long… I’m just not a fan of Obeys egregious sizing as a whole, their clothes run so big

Butter Goods just dropped their new Fall collection and they have some good looking pants in there.

Might still pull the trigger once they drop in the US store...

the earth cords just arrived today. Damn good quality on these. Tagged size 33, but measures like a 36 across the waist. Plenty room in the thighs and rise and 8.5” leg opening.

if you get a 32 it will measure like a 34, if you get a 34 it will measure like a 36, etc. leg opening on them should be about 8.5” across all sizes from my experience with butter goods. Outseam should be around 40.5” to 41.7” on sizes 32 and 34 so about a 29” inseam. Hope this helps! Can’t wait to get my hands on the green with white stitching. Omg so beautiful

Might still pull the trigger once they drop in the US store...

Thank you, this is super helpful! We'll see if my bank account can handle it when they drop...
How many pairs of pants/jeans do you guys own. Feel like I have way too much shit but hoping some of you hoarders will make me feel less guilty.
Dude... it's bad lol. I probably have like 30 pairs of pants and jeans. I've been getting a lot of jeans lately in a lot of different colors and I have a wide variety of pants (cords, wool, chinos, etc). I buy them way more often than I need and I also low key hoard pairs too. I have a lot, especially nice straight-fit ones, that I rarely ever wear because they're not my style any more but I still keep around because I always think to myself "oh what if I want to wear these again in a year or so?" I try to get rid of them by donating them or giving them to my friends every now and then, but I honestly buy too many new ones for that to make an impact lol.
I should mention that I'm not dropping $100+ on new stuff all the time too. I mostly get used/vintage stuff from thrifting or eBay, which helps me justify it 8)

i have an absurd amount, definitely way too many. i have all my different washes of denim, different baggy levels, all different colors of wale cords, trying to build up my different color sweatpants game and swishy pants game. i pretty much sell used clothes full time so i am constantly acquiring new pants and selling old ones, etc.
this. Always hunting for deals and never paying full retail justifies it in my mind lol. I’m over 30 pairs total of skate brand denim, cords, twills, canvas. I’d rather buy skate brand pants than Levi’s or wranglers. It should be the opposite the older I get, but we gotta keep these brands we love alive. Can’t be having butter goods and polar turn into a fourstar shit show whatsoever. I won’t stand for it!

Damn okay I'm at just over 20 and thought that was getting ridiculous, also very few almost none at retail price. Some of them I never wear thought which is what makes me feel a lil bad

when I’m tired of a certain fit or style or if I outgrow something I just resell it on eBay, depop, grailed, etc to recoup for the next pant that catches my eye. It’s a cycle that will never die. Must always have fresh pants for any occasion :)

this. sometimes ill take old inventory that i know isnt going to move or just doesnt have much of an r.o.i. and instead of selling on ebay or depop ill just take it to my local parks and drop it off there with a sign saying free stuff

Wow and I thought 10 pairs was over the top. To be fair I do own five pair of dungarees so yeah ;D

Let’s see some pants collection pics. Feeling a lot less guilty about my collection now which is definitely below 20. Maybe 15 max? Makes me want to step my game up now. You gotta have multiple pairs in ever fit/material/color right?
I think I’m gonna be picking up a pair of those butter goods plum cords. The color and fit on them looks too good to pass on. Pretty sure they are very similar/ the same fit as the Philly denim.
https://buttergoods.com/collections/pants/products/high-wale-cord-work-pants-dusty-plum
I’m also curious if anyone has tried or seen in person the new Levi’s xx chino ez waist pants? They look like a nice lightweight pant possible similar to surf pants? They have very little measurement info though and I need to know the length.

the butter goods cord work pants will have the exact same fit as the apple denim baggy fit jeans with slight taper they released this summer if that helps! They wont be nearly as obnoxious as the phillys in the thighs I can guarantee you that

Stoked to see so much love for Butter! They started in Perth where I'm from so always try to buy a few of their pants every year to support.
Anybody looking for more measurements here's a good spreadsheet I found online that breaks down all their fits -

How many pairs of pants/jeans do you guys own. Feel like I have way too much shit but hoping some of you hoarders will make me feel less guilty.
A lot. I have 4 pairs of Cee Blues, 8 pairs of polar 93’s, 6 pairs of polar surf, 2 pair of carpet jeans, 5-6 pairs of various carhartt WIP, 2 pair of FTC on the way, a bunch of various selvedge jeans that don’t get worn very much(slimmer fit, they are for when I have to look like a manager at work versus looking like an idiot skateboarder). That’s just what I can remember off the top. I’m very confident there are more in those drawers.
-
Holy shit that’s a lot of 93’s!! You must have a damn good job!!!!!
I just ordered some Tiago Primitive jeans in 38”. Has anyone had experience with these jeans at all???

The new butter goods herringbone pants GO. Got mine in 2 days from humiditynola. Went with the green with white stitching and I’m so glad I did. Green pants are the wave this fall.

Maybe Levi's 501? I used to wear those all the time and they're a nice, classic straight fit jean. Also very easy to find on sale or used vintage pairs.
@sadnocomply damn you're making me want a pair so bad... I'm torn between the black herringbone pants and the plum cords.

Butter Goods just dropped their new Fall collection and they have some good looking pants in there. I have my eye on those herringbone pants with the contrast stitching, but I wish they had a better size chart/better product photos to get a sense of the fit. Would ideally like as little taper as possible and at least a 9' leg opening.
Might still pull the trigger once they drop in the US store...
https://buttergoods.com/collections/all
Im thinking about a pair of Butter Goods Santosuosso but im not sure about sizing as im 6'4/2m tall with almost 36W. Only baggy pant i have is the dickies 874, went with 36 in waist as i read they shrink some the 2 first washes. Fits great now.
Do i go with 36 in butter goods if they shrink or a 34?

I would go with 34. I'm a 34 waist, 5'11", sometimes size up to 36 for extra sag, and I bought the Santosuosso in 32. I've tried on the 34 and they're ridiculously big. I believe they produced them oversize intentionally, and added a drawstring so people can't complain about their size not fitting without a belt.

Holy shit. Got my Tiago's yesterday and they are HUGE. 38” is easy 42” Fuxking love them!!

Bit the bullet and got these in black. You're right, they're super fuckin nice and fit pretty similar to by Ceeblues Leighs. I like how they're built like chinos so you could dress them up if you wanted to.

May not be as big, but Wallace & Barnes Officer Chinos are a superb pant. It's a perfect bagginess and taper. They are pricey but you can always find them on sale. It's a JCREW sister company.

I just got the Dickies Franky Villani double knee cords in 36 x 27. My true waist is 32, but sizing up is especially necessary for dickies. The fit is fine, but I wish they were more tapered. That, and the cut bottoms that are supposedly made not to fray frayed really quick. Color/material is super nice tho.

It’s not that hard to taper a pair of pants, if you have the time and resources. Especially if you like them

Fold the legs inward to the length you want, and see how they look in the mirror. If the opening is too big, get them tapered a little bit. If you do want them tapered, make sure you go to a half decent tailor who knows what they're doing (not a '15 minute alterations' place in the mall). Before tapering them, the tailor will probably have you put them on and pin them in place to make sure they get them how you want them.
I haven't done this with Big Boys specifically, but I've done it with other pants, to good results. It will cost a little more than just the hem, but you don't want to end up with $100+ jeans that you never wear because they fit weird.

This is pretty random, but these urban outfitter pants are the shit to skate in
These are a bit baggier:

Basically a cheaper, unbranded version of the polar surf pants.
I also tried out those poetic collective pants and they're expensive and kinda suck... the legs are totally untapered and big tubes and the front pockets are odd..

the volcom louie pants fits pretty nice and loose. I copped the brown cords & dark blue jeans in 29" and the waist feels more like a 30"/31". The inseam seems to be on the shorter side which I like bc I usually have to cuff or hem pants for them to sit better on shoes. The jeans are really good quality denim and the color is real nice. Highly recommend!

Welcome Principal Solid Color Elastic Pants, Magic Forest color - got them on sale for $52. Not my usual fit but I wanted non-jeans for more room + elastic waist/string (if you know of more let me know, ideally a 99%cotton 1% spandex type deal). Sorry lots of pics.
I'm 183lbs (today), 5'10"/31"ish inseam + muscular quads and calves so I can't do skinny or regular - these are a size SM (I had tried the medium, fucking huuuuge) - These are 97% Cotton 3% spandex, so a bit of stretch to them, but plenty or room, they are on the thicker side/heavier weight size so great for fall. No cuff, they hang/sit perfectly...but one wash in cold, and a medium tumble dry and they shrunk in length like a mother fucker. Total highwaters now. HAD I READ THE FUCKING TAG it clearly states to not tumble dry them at all. oh well. buyer beware.

Came here to say these don't qualify for this thread, but sounds like you wanted them bigger but ruined them with the dryer. I'm going to say that you shouldn't put anything in the dryer that you care about, except towels and sheets. We have one at home and i won't even put my sheets in it unless i absolutely have to. That thing is the worst for your clothes.
Also, the medium probably would have been fine, maybe you're just not used to seeing yourself in baggy pants? If you're coming from slim or relaxed, it takes a bit of getting used to, seeing those big pants in the mirror

Welcome Principal Solid Color Elastic Pants, Magic Forest color - got them on sale for $52. Not my usual fit but I wanted non-jeans for more room + elastic waist/string (if you know of more let me know, ideally a 99%cotton 1% spandex type deal). Sorry lots of pics.

I did indeed fuck them up by not reading the label. That's on me. Perhaps someone interested on them will glean some useful information from the post. Moving on...
As the title of the thread suggests we're talking loose fit, doesn't say 'oversized' or 'baggy' or 'MC Hammer-like but loose. Which these are (pic is medium btw but they were too big in the waist or I would have just cut to length): https://www.skatewarehouse.com/Welcome_Principal_Twill_Pants/descpage-WCPTEPT.html?from=gshop&gclid=Cj0KCQjw_fiLBhDOARIsAF4khR2XNCVtSAwnftGct61tFbDKJiQhJipBYZu_ry6KCDM0eSw7H2BOczsaAuEpEALw_wcB
Pretty holier than thou/highly condescending post. It's great that you have a dryer, and sheets at home. It's also greatly appreciated you taking the time out just to drop by with your 'loose fit' qualifications standards. Kudos.
What does me [you assumed here and are uninformed] not being used to seeing myself in baggy clothes have to do with anything if I was happy with the fit before I fucked them up? You got one thing right, Mediums would have been fine...after shrinking.
Anyway, I, too, have sheets and a dryer (both fucking rad, am I right?). I'm also quite versed in high quality fabrics and care; including high-end workout gear (that can also be instantly fucked in 5 min. med heated dryer) / casual wear, synthetics, cotton, silks, and wool to a few hundo+ selvedge denim (that I don't wash or dry ever). I guess you hang your sheets on a clothes-line then (serious question, not stirring up shit)? I couldn't be bothered with that shit.
One thing is clear, we have different expectations of pant care for pants that one actually uses to, dare I say, skate in, perhaps you were thinking this thread only pertains to loose fit casual/street wear?
If I have to wash $65 skate pants inside out, cold only, hang them dry, can't dry clean (exact label specs btw), and have touch my nose and spin three times to care for them properly, when they are going to get fucked on session one, I don't want them; street/casual wear is is a total different story but I didn't buy these with that in mind.
That all said they are great feeling and fitting pants provided you don't put them in the fucking dryer - now to get a pair in large and shrink them down so I don't have to worry about them ;)

Firstly, thanks for this wonderful reply, it made my day.
I think we just have very different ideas of loose fit. I'd call those a relaxed fit at best. I hope you find a good home for these and that shrinking down a bigger size works out for you
-
Glad I made your day.
FWIW Welcome puts them as 'baggy relaxed' - SW 'Regular straight fit' (as if), so point to you on relaxed, but come on..when talking about skinny/slim/regular/relaxed/ where does baggy or loose come into play? All fucking around aside, you are fond of the Polar surf pants, you consider them loose, to me, they're baggy due to the long inseam so they stack (where as the Welcomes are a shorter inseam), both with wide hip width and low crotches and tapers.
I think you are looking at my size choice compared to how the pants are actually made to fit (hence you suggesting mediums would have been fine, by your definition). The pants are indeed loose, I just chose to keep the fit less fashion over form.

I'd say it goes relaxed, then loose, then baggy?
those pants are nice, look a lot like the surf pants but a better length.
Good point about the sizing, I'd probably need a L at least.
Also, you're right, that was condescending earlier, and I apologise.

All good man. I'm just trying to find some fucking loose pants to skate in and I'm pissed I fucked up those welcomes - but FFS that's A LOT of care for a pair of pants; I've got some expensive dress/work and gym gear that require less fucking effort than those things.
I looked at the surf pants too, but they seemed way too long, I would have cut them for sure, not bothered with tailoring them (especially for skating). They seem a bit baggier (thigh width) than I want. What's the care for them?
Also, the Welcome's have a really fucking nice sheen to them (hence the need to wash inside out). I soaked them in hot water, finished the wash cycle, then nuked the fuck out of them on high in the dryer, teen kid sized now.
Picked up these in a few big sizes. cheap. (easy returns if they suck):
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08V87J642/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I wear these as casual shit, errands and such, but they are a very athletic cut so I boosted up 2 sizes, easy returns as well; much more than I want to spend on skate pants tho...they're really nice pants tho.

The Tiago’s are too baggy. I never thought I’d ever say that. Around the thighs they are MASSIVE and don’t tapper much. If they were the same style cut as Big Boys they would be full JNCO fr
You can’t really tell buy photos but I catch my reflection and think “these look silly” lol

I just got the Dickies Franky Villani double knee cords in 36 x 27. My true waist is 32, but sizing up is especially necessary for dickies. The fit is fine, but I wish they were more tapered. That, and the cut bottoms that are supposedly made not to fray frayed really quick. Color/material is super nice tho.
Do you mean sizing up on the Villani cords is necessary like with 874s? I usually go up at least 2 if not 4 inches at the waist on 874s just because the waist sizing is so crazy. Or did you size up from 32 to 36 to get a little extra bagginess?

I wear the mediums as casual / work pants, they are an athletic cut (bigger thigh, and a taper), I wear a medium, so I ordered a XL and XXL to achieve what I am after (easy post office box returns).
I swear the model is wearing a small, the meds fit like you'd expect slim or slim-regular with a taper. They don't appear skinny like that on me. It states "Model is 5'11" and is wearing a size Medium" I'm 5'10" and way more swole in the legs than that dude and the mediums still have room in them. Well see how the XL goes, will need to chop the legs. They've got this sweet almost inner thigh pocket on them, perfect for a phone and it doesn't get in the way of ollies.

Can be dyed pretty easily with RIT dye. Just dont be cheap and skip the colorstay, just dye alone will wash out over time. The colorstay will increase the color longevity.

For $30 these aren't half bad quality to skate in (95% Cotton, 5% Polyester, no spandex for that tiny bit'o'stretch) waist runs small (not even using the drawstring so you can go bigger for a baggier fit) as these a Made in China, but I'm surprised that they aren't 'typical' off amazon asian sizing (i.e. small).
I picked up a 32" (I'm normally a fitted 30/31), and they are a very relaxed regular cut, pretty sure a 34 is going to be my sweet spot, 36+ for the lot of you.

I just ordered those purple Franky Villani cord Dickies. I hope Franky gets a good cut of my money, he deserves it.

I'm starting my own clothing line of oversized overalls with a bum flap in the back. It's gonna be called Bungalow Dungarees or Bung Dungs for short. Because how are you supposed to take a shit when you're in the city at the spot and the bubbleguts strike? What are you gonna do, unbuckle those fuckers and take em down to your ankles in the porta-potty? You're gonna get shit flakes and piss residue all over your nice baggy overalls. Bung Dungs is the fashion forward urban couture innovation that the concrete jungle needs so bad right now. Everybody knows when you are on the verge of getting radical the urge to dump hits you like a ton of bricks. Bungalow Dungarees are the solution to the most pressing problem facing skaters today. Join the Bung Dung Army and let it rip with pride in your stride when a public bathroom is your stinky oasis in the desert of life. This ain't the 1920's and a caca stain on your overalls ain't cool, you're darn skippy I'm taking this concept to the bank. Who's with me?
Uhhhhhh….aiye aiye cap’n

I've only skated the cords, but the fit should be similar/identical to the jeans. I enjoyed skating in them; they felt nice and roomy. The denim is a lot lighter/breathable than Polar 93's though if that helps

Nutritious and delicious!!

Back to the subject at hand.
Nobody bit last time I mentioned, so throwing it back out there again.
For those of you that want a nice relaxed/tapered fit without getting in the Big Boy territory, Levi’s 541 a size or 2 up is nice.
Black overdye color way 1 sz up (36 —> 38) is nice for me. Had another color (dark grey) that was too slim/tapered, so be careful ordering online…

Just wanted to say that if anyone can find a pair of these either at a reasonable price or in their size, definitely look into getting the Carhartt WIP Alder pants. I went one size up and they fit perfectly. Nice relaxed taper fit, not wide but not on some Uniqlo slim straight leg shit either. Almost like Surf pants but made with stone washed twill.

Dang these are looking real nice! I do wish they had a little wider of a leg opening though. I'm not the biggest fan of how lots of baggy pants taper a bunch.

Got the butter goods cord work pants in dusty plum and have nothing but good things to say. I typically get a 34 waste, I could have gone to a 32 with these. That said, the drawstring makes it not a problem at all. The material itself is super nice and I love the general fit. Just the right amount of taper.
Butter generally makes super good clothing from what I’ve experienced. I have the world pants (not quite as baggy as the cords) and those fit great too. I also have a Sherpa fleece that I like for when it gets cold.
-
Butter Goods stuff is so good. Got the dusty Plum cords as well, top notch.
Levi’s 541s in a bigger size are definitely a solid fit too. Less baggy but still loose with good taper and stacking. Kinda makes me think of like the Brent Atchley or Lewis Marnell. In a good way.
I also just got a pair of the Levi’s xx ez waist chino and they are super solid. I went up a size to xxl and they are nice and baggy with a solid taper. Built in drawstring and belt loops. Light and breathable but still feel strong. Want to maybe get another pair soon

Nah man, you're good. I'm the same way when it comes to pants I skate in they're going to get trashed, potentially the first session so I'd rather not spend over $50 (unless they are volcom jeans, as they are the best stretch denim for skating hands down). Also, I don't give a fuck about streetwear culture or whatever the'gram is selling, but I'll drop coin on non-clothes I like. Fuck, I still find it hard to swallow spending $90 on skate shoes but if you sleep your size, int ath colorway you like is gone.

anyone know the consensus on wearing boots with baggy jeans? looking to get some boots, thinking like combat boots or doc marten style, but i pretty much only wear dickies stay loose or levis 550s/560s and dont know if this would work or look absurd. was wondering if anyone has recs for how to wear them or fit pics, would love to hear it.

Did they actually fit like the tag size said? I bought the a pair of the Volcom billow jeans in a 36 and they were more like a 38 or a 40.
I'm normally a 36. I've noticed this with a few other brands too. All of the sudden I'm having to buy 34.

I used to be a guy who only got 30-40 dollar pairs of pants because they would get scuffed. They didn’t fit bad but they didn’t fit great.
I got a pair of surf pants and welcome pants and let me say, totally worth the price. In terms of materials and especially fit. Totally worth it.

I left a review on the previous page, but yes you are correct in that the fit does not match the tag size. I picked up the size 29 in both the Louie cords and denim. They both feel like a 31 in the waist.

I've only skated the cords, but the fit should be similar/identical to the jeans. I enjoyed skating in them; they felt nice and roomy. The denim is a lot lighter/breathable than Polar 93's though if that helps
Did they actually fit like the tag size said? I bought the a pair of the Volcom billow jeans in a 36 and they were more like a 38 or a 40.
I'm normally a 36. I've noticed this with a few other brands too. All of the sudden I'm having to buy 34.
I left a review on the previous page, but yes you are correct in that the fit does not match the tag size. I picked up the size 29 in both the Louie cords and denim. They both feel like a 31 in the waist.
ok good to know, thanks.

Just got these for 50% off from GAP. Will let ya'll know the fit when they arrive but they seem decently baggy with a taper if you size up.

i have these in the navy, an L would be my proper size but i went up to an XL and the waist is tremendous. They have a dope drawstring so i can make them work but i have to tie them for sure. they definitely have mad room, and seem excellent for the price

Anyone willing to post a pic of them wearing the Butter Goods cord work pants from their latest drop? Highly considering getting a pair of the dusty plum ones

Dope! The site said I should be a M so I got the L. Hoping it’s baggy enough without feeling like I’m swimming in the waist
Do they hold up to skating?

i actually really liked skating in them, comfy roomy and felt like they looked cool haha. i only had a lazy parking lot session and didnt take any gnarly spills but i approve for sure. it was about 50 degrees out when i went too and these kept me warm without sweating into them

I got my stay loose Levi's tapered....I couldn't be happier. I can handle a wider leg opening for pants but denim, the cuff can be too heavy and flap around. I also won't tolerate sizing up too much. With something like dickies I accept it but with most other brands....they should just figure it out.

i feel like i recall someone saying the newer polar denim fitting differently, can anyone confirm or deny that and potentially explain what might have changed?
also, are the "pitch black" 93's actually pitch black? lol im looking for a pair of just super jet black pants

When I ordered the Blue/Black and Orange/Black from the summer run in my normal 30x30 they actually fit like a 30x30 which is smaller than how 93's usually fit. I returned and went up to 32x32 and they fit closer to my older 30x30.
However the newer yellow/black were back closer to older sizing and I grabbed those in 30x30
The pitch black are quite dark, they do fade a bit when washed. I recently re dyed mine to get them darker again

What're using to dye denim black? I got a good deal on a pair of black Silvertabs but the eBay pics make them look pretty faded, and I wanted to look into dyeing them.

What is the yellow tag made of?
If you use dylon dye, it will only be absorbed by certain materials, like cotton, or a leather tag. Most stitching will be synthetic so it won't change color. I had some black and white striped Polar cargoes that i dyed black, the stitching was white and didn't change, which looks great.
I've dyed and redyed a lot of stuff black and the only item that had cotton stitching that changed colour was a denim jacket from the 70's or 80's. Everything else I've dyed, the stitching / embroidery didn't change.

Anyone try CCS Original Relaxed Denim pants? They seem to have a nice amount of bagginess in the photos. Can't find any online reviews though. I wish there were more baggy jeans under like $50.

Not a pant but anyone tried the butter goods apple shorts and know if theyre as big as the jeans version in the waist?
I tried the World & santosuosso jeans in W34 and they were pretty big at the waist meanwhile the size chart on the shorts says 86-91cm.
Why is it so hard to find the sizings for their stuff?

Yea their sizing is annoying. I have the Apple pants in 34 and that waist size fit closer to the 32 Santosuosso. Imagine the shorts would be similar. I'd bet that you could do the shorts in a 34

Saw Vince touz rocking the 550s, got a recent/modern pair and they don’t taper as aggressively as the vintage ones. Managed to find 2 pairs of 560s one orange label and one pre 2000s and both fit loose/baggy at the thigh and taper perfectly. Curious if any other brands compare in fit, some of the stuff brad cromer wears looks similar…

My god the winter polar skate co clothing drop looks absolutely fantastic. Not a big boy fan, but those purple grund chinos & 44! Cords in every color have my name all over them. Don’t be silly and buy them full price at launch slappals. Wait til we get the Christmas 20% off sales in the sales threads - then we can all go brazy!

Talked to him in the IG dms recently through his vintage clothes account and he's been wearing mostly silvertabs and also the philly denim. I also saw that huf label he posted. Definitely hoping to get a huf pant from him. They should do a Carl and Cromer signature denim pack with a short video to go with it. A dream

Anyone here have any recommendations for fat folks with naturally pre-existing thunder thighs underneath? I'm built like Andrew Allen and also can't keep the extra weight off me. I need some chinos or "normal" looking flat front pant of some kind that can accommodate my weight and build. I'll even take a thin ripstop/hiking pant material for winter if that's my only option. All my pants are just becoming kinda uncomfortable at this point.

Just got the enjoi fader denim at work, these have to be some of the cheapest, most ill fitting pants I’ve ever tried on. They look like they were made by someone who just learned to sew. Really amateur looking stitching and details, and unless you hike your pants up to your tits, there’s no way you could skate in these. They’re very restrictive, no range of movement. They’re a few bucks cheaper, but I honestly wouldn’t take these if they were free.

Lol, I got a couple because I didn’t want to pair that much for BIg Boys, my mistake, I ripped the light blue ones first day in the crotch, super restricted up top, and the leg opening is too big

I was honestly shocked at the low quality/fit. I get that a lot of the new baggy pants are meant to be worn a bit higher, but I couldn't move in the fader unless I literally pulled them up so high that the crotch was cramping my nuts.
There's a key technique to providing range of movement in pants design, and it's crucial for baggy pants because of the longer rise/lower crotch. I figured it out in 1992 after about 2 samples.

total opposite here. the older i get, the more i want a flexible waist and no fly that i might leave open. i now basically live in cheap sweatpants, but honestly, with the black one people just think its a regular black pant.

How are people going with all these new cord pants?
About every five years I decide I want cords again and then quickly regret it when my pants basically rip in half from one fall.

I like the Habitat cords but the waist feels pretty small even after going a size up. But the material feels pretty thick.

Found a good deal on quasi utility pants in europe. Im unsure about the fit and I was wondering whether i should size up or not. I wear 34x34 polar 93's in comparison and I'm around 6'3. If you have them, let me know how they fit pls

While I agree that they're low quality and you can definitely tell that in the stitching, my enjoi faders fit me really well. I love how high waisted they are and how wide the leg opening is compared to some baggy pants. I also skate them all the time and haven't had any problems with them ripping. But I'm also really skinny, barely have hips, and like pants with little to no taper, so take this as you will.

Really nice, I like the taper of them over the 93's. and its not as aggressive as the Butter Philly. A nice in between
Feels good, not too thin. If you want I can snap some 93 vs. plaza pics when I get back home from work.
I will say the waist on the plaza jeans are much truer to size, I sized up to a 34 to get closer to my 32 93's

How are people going with all these new cord pants?
About every five years I decide I want cords again and then quickly regret it when my pants basically rip in half from one fall.
Although corduroy is inherently weaker, I've never had that issue myself. In fact, I have one pair of brown cords I made in 2010 that are still going strong.

@arrbee the real MVP super helpful thank you

@arrbee Thanks!
Do you mind measuring outerseam too? The thing with baggy pants is that the crotch is so low (or rather tall), that the inseam shrinks.
-
Damn, definitely too short for me. Thank you for saving me $90!

That's interesting that the Polar 93's inseam is mislabeled by a full 2 1/2 inches. Pants measurements are often off by a bit (sometimes intentionally as "vanity" measurements regarding the waist size), but the inseam should be a lot closer to the listed length than what those Polars are.

My bad on the out seam. I thought about it as soon as I posted and was too lazy to get back up again but here they are.

for my bro's who have dyed/re-dyed pants black, pls help a pal out
i just got a pair of dickies duck carpenter pants in black that i really like, but they came in like a "washed" black where it almost looks pre-faded. i want to get them a deep black, should i just follow the basic RIT dye instructions, or for a deeper color should i leave them in the dye longer? give them additional soaks? is there any recipes you guys have used that work well? thanks in advance

Yeah, leaving them in for longer or giving multiple dips will help build the color.
Some tips:
1. Wash the pants a few times before you dye, sometimes there'll be a little bleach left in the fibers from the factory that will turn your shit red when you dye it
2. Get a dye setter to add to the bath, otherwise they'll bleed every single time you wash them. Rit makes this under the name "color stay dye fixative" but I've never used it. The internet will also tell you that salt or vinegar work, but they dont.
3. After dyeing, wash them alone with a white piece of scrap cloth so you can check for bleeding before you start washing them with other things

I got this back to black rit dye kit that comes with pitch black dye and this like color setting stuff thats supposed to get clothes to a deep like new black color. thats probably what id go with (I havent tried it yet i just bought it cause i was going to dye canvas that turned out to be too heavy)

Just a heads up: I ordered two pairs of the Winter 2021 Big Boy cords, the Rust and Brass colourways, but they fit completely different. The Brass fit the same as my other two pairs of Boy Boy jeans but the Rust pair fit significantly smaller; indeed, they fit so much smaller I couldn't close the waistband button lol.
One more oddity I noticed: despite both pairs being released for Winter 21, the Rust pair have Fall 21 on their tag.
TDLR: size up if you buy the recent Big Boy cords in the Rust colour specifically.

93's were like that in the summer drop. Orange/black and Blue/Black both ran small. Had to return and re order size up

Ive kinda found that certain colors would fit much smaller than others, for instance i had the light blue wash, the washed black, and the Iggy dark blue wash 93 jeans all same size, the light blue fit me perfect and both of the other colors were much much smaller. same thing with big boys, i had light wash blue, pitch black, white/black stitch, green/white stitch, all in the same size and i think the only two that fit similar were the white and the green pairs. pretty much across the board light wash fits big and black fits small in 93, big boy shorts and pants. Ive since sold off all my polar pants except one pair of surf pants, weird to hear this is still an issue though

whats the word on loose fit 36 inseam?

(https://i.imgur.com/nmDkeUB.jpg)
So why do they call it a 32/32 instead of a 32/29? Strange. The inseam shouldn't use vanity sizing. Just double checked my store bought pants listed as 32" inseam and they are indeed 32". Both are baggy too.

Both pairs I measured have a roughly 12"-13" rise as well. I figured they were trying to compensate for the rise in the measurement, and the outseam measurement looks about right for a 32" inseam - just odd there's a discrepancy between the two pairs I measured and the 93's.
Not talking out of my ass here - went to school for pattern drafting and have been designing pants since 1992. This stuff is interesting to me since people love those jeans.

do it. Well worn the money. Made in the USA premium quality denim. I always went size 32 and they measured bigger than the tag. Be wary of washing them in anything but ice cold water tho, shrinkage could get ya

They claim to be sanforized but shrinkage is always possible with denim. Best washing method is in the bathtub soak and then rinse, I always add a little agitation after they soak a bit to loosen any dirt/oils then hang dry.
The sizing charts provided on the cee blues site are accurate to the pairs I’ve purchased. Measure yourself/a pair of jeans you like and see how the numbers compare. I’ve talked to Gilbert on IG and he runs them true to size, no size up or anything.

If I normally wear size 30 in Butter goods? should I go with size 29 in cee blue denim?

Yo I can’t find any review or topic on the polar 92 fit.
They look slimmer and with more aggressive taper compared to the 93…?

depends on what your thigh situation is like my man. You working with a bigger waist but smaller thighs or are your thighs pretty proportional to your waist?
-
I'm loving my Levi's 560's. My true to size is 36x30 but that is in a slim pant. after getting 560's in 38x30 and them being baggy but too short I scored a pair of 38x32s and god damn they're perfect. Definitely have got some bigger thighs compared to the rest of my body and these work so well. Bought all of them off ebay and would recommend going up length wise but between these and the dickies double knee loose fit I think I'm set for winter.

I got a size 29 in the Ceeblues Leigh chino and wear a 30 in most other pants, including Butter Goods, and that worked for me. I'd still check the size chart and compare though, just to be sure.
Gilbert also teased a new pant drop either this week or next on Instagram hmmmmmmmm

Looks like Josh Wilson is rocking the new Ceeblues in this clip. I had dm'ed Gilbert a year ago or so asking him about a pair of Ceeblues jeans he was wearing in his Vans part that looked like this, and he said that they were samples and offered to sell me a pair. I politely declined since they were too big for me, but stoked that they're coming out now.

Just got the enjoi fader denim at work, these have to be some of the cheapest, most ill fitting pants I’ve ever tried on. They look like they were made by someone who just learned to sew. Really amateur looking stitching and details, and unless you hike your pants up to your tits, there’s no way you could skate in these. They’re very restrictive, no range of movement. They’re a few bucks cheaper, but I honestly wouldn’t take these if they were free.
Lol, I got a couple because I didn’t want to pair that much for BIg Boys, my mistake, I ripped the light blue ones first day in the crotch, super restricted up top, and the leg opening is too big
I was honestly shocked at the low quality/fit. I get that a lot of the new baggy pants are meant to be worn a bit higher, but I couldn't move in the fader unless I literally pulled them up so high that the crotch was cramping my nuts.
There's a key technique to providing range of movement in pants design, and it's crucial for baggy pants because of the longer rise/lower crotch. I figured it out in 1992 after about 2 samples.
I decided to order 2 pairs of the enjoi fader black denim since it came out to $35/pair. I went with my true waist size, I think I should like the overall fit from what I've seen in pictures, but if they end up feeling too restrictive, they'll just be non-skate pants lol

They are a good cheaper option, but yea I bought both the black and light blue pair, the black ones have a much softer feeling denim, I am thinking of taking them to my machine and giving them a taper to see if I like them any better

nah I go up a size, I’m usually a 32 so I get 34s, but considering they were loose on waist I think true to size should be fine, they hit all major marks if you are looking for something cheap and loose, but like what bugle bites said above, they didn’t drop the crotch low enough so when your pushing or lifting your knees high they definitely feel more restrictive, I’ve basically just been buying butter Philly jeans cause I’m tired of messing around, they are more pricey but I like the way they fit and look

The loafers (weejuns?) look sharp, as do the ‘Kung-Fu’ slippers. One of the difficulties in the dress code of that era is, imo: what to do with the footwear? Wearing work wear with loafers, seems slightly off to me. The loafer says privilege, no? Not exactly blue collar.
I dunno what I’m on about here.

I'm no historian but I think plenty of people would of just worn whatever shoes they could get. Workbooks also would of sort of been a privilege. Sneakers basically didn't exist so a lot of trades would wear whatever basic thin shoes were available.

for those who are interested in the enjoi fader denim, I highly suggest sizing up and only buying them if they're on sale. I originally got my true waist size and it fit okay, but hardly any crotch room and difficult to put stuff into the front pockets. Did an exchange and sized up like crazy and they fit much better, just have to wear them higher on the waist if I plan on skating in them

Anyone know if the new Polar "92!" denim fits like their "90s" denim?
Yo I can’t find any review or topic on the polar 92 fit.
They look slimmer and with more aggressive taper compared to the 93…?
yea i wanna hear thoughts on these, i'm a big 93 fan so i'm probably gonna order a pair and try them out.
-

This would be dope since the 90s one was the perfect fit for me. Slightly baggy but not goofy boy baggy. Still wear one for skating regularly even tough it has some scruffs and holes in it.

Heard the same. I saw a shop comparing them to the fit of vintage Silvertabs, which are usually baggy with a pretty decently tapered leg.

Wait I did not even realize they had made a new fit. That’s clean. Can anyone comment on whether the waist runs true or not? They sadly don’t make a 36x34 so I’m hoping to maybe fit into a 34x34

I don't doubt that that probably is their reason, but that's a stupid reason. If another brand wants to make exact copies of the pants, they can just get a pair in each size and take the measurements themselves. Refusing to provide us with the measurements is not stopping another brand from making knockoffs, but it is preventing potential customers from knowing how the pants are going to fit before they buy them.

I have a pair of the brown denim. The best way I can describe the fit is very similar to surf pants but denim/ chino material. I typically wear 93s as well and I’d say they’re a little roomier in the thigh and taper a tad more.

I have some 30/30’s I believe , gotta be 2 years old now, and I just got those brown/black pair in 34/34 for a much baggier fit .
I put on the old ones today just to check if they still fit and they are a really nice cut , not too baggy , but I’d say baggier than 93’s in the same 30/30. The 34/34 fit me more like a medium big boy pair. But my favorite polar cut for sure .
-
I hardly ever buy new pants, almost all my stuff is thrifted. But I splurged on some 36-inch 93 cords and that model is almost my ideal cut.
I might get some denim in the future if I can find it on sale

I would say the new 92's, by eye, look more like a vintage Levis 550 fit whereas the 93's are closer to how a Silvertab would fit (baggier with much less taper). Looking at 93's online compared to how they actually fit differs from pair to pair. I just got the Washed Black 93s and they feel much baggier and more roomy than expected, but in a good way. 30/32 with just enough extra room in the waist to wear them how I like with a belt.

Didn’t even know the 92's were a new fit by polar. I just wanted some semi baggy light jeans and I like a narrow foot opening, so these were perfect!
I went with the same size waist I got in pretty much all my pants (Dickies, Carhartt) and they fit the way I like it. Actually went a size shorter than usual though, these are gonna be the first pair of pants I’m not cuffing in a very long time, so that feels weird, but I’m very happy overall.

Oh hell yeah, I'm excited to see how these look. Really hope that he does some colors outside of the black, mid wash, and light wash that all companies do for their jeans. I love how Polar and Butter Goods are doing a bunch of different denim colors like purple and yellow.

2 months and 10 days later the pants finally came. They are awesome and fit great, but doubt I’ll skate in them.
My newest baggy pants finds are Levi’s Utility pants in green that have a built in belt and nice taper to the lef opening

Pretty sure the dickies villani pants have a super short inseam. Not sure you can find them anywhere though.
Hate to say it because Franky is dope but I would not recommend those cords personally. Not tapered enough for my liking and the bottoms fray instantly. Also the material seems cheap and weird compared to other cords I have like butter and polar.

Loutre restocked a bunch of their jeans, and I'm so tempted to get a pair of the black with white contrast stitching. That price tag is steep, but I was fiending for a pair of these last year when I first discovered Carl Aikens lol

So I finally got a pair of 93’s and they are super good. But they are definitely not “baggy”. I wish there was something in the middle between Big Boys and 93’s. And I can’t go up a size either cause I’m at xl and 36 to fit properly. Anyway, first world problems huh.
-
Definitely not baggy. More loose fitting. But I like the 93’s

For me that was the Polar 90s jeans back when they first started getting baggier. They should really make them again imo.

I picked up a pair of dungarees recently and the fit is great. Definitely on the baggier side but the material feels like it would stop a bullet.

I noticed Uniqlo and the Gap now have loose fit….we have a way to go until the skinny Jean is eradicated….

Anyone got recommendations for some nice chinos that fit similar to dickies 874s or Polar 90s/92! denim? I'm looking for something soft and comfy. I tried the Vans authentic relaxed fit chinos but they're...not so relaxed.

Lexi’s xx chino ez waist. Nice and loose with taper and a draw string. Size up for baggyness

Check out RVCA Americana pants. I had a couple pairs. Really liked them. Only pants I can think of that have a similar fit to the 874’s

I think it can depend person to person, especially if you come from wearing something a bit more regular fitting. I went from Dickies 874s and then into 550's and 93's, so the difference took a little getting used to. For me the 93's are a perfect fit for someone that wants a loose fitting pant to easily move around in.

What do you mean by that? Not relaxed as in too slim?
I have a pair of authentic chinos that are super comfy but just a tad slimmer than I prefer. Was thinking of getting the relaxed fits to remedy that. They also have a loose fit but the pics don't look very different.

Yes, sorry. They're too slim in my opinion. I considered the loose but these were apart of the Skate Warehouse 30% sale and they were already marked down to $41 to begin with. Sucks they didn't work out but is what it is.

Found that a size up in Loose fit Wrangler 5-Star jeans had been perfectly roomy without being overly baggy, just boxy enough to move around in easily

Try Carhartt WIP Simple pants. They are like a soft uncreased/starched 874 with a button enclosure that doesn't instantly come undone like on Dickies (I'm skinny AF) and they have a nice relaxed fit with the slightest of tapers right at the bottom hem.

i only size up in the workwear, because to me it feels like they run small or at least shrink a bit after washing. got b51s or what they are called, the double knees. wip stuff always was more of as close to tts as possible. i got wip cargos, those fit wider at the waste than the workwear pants in the same waste size. but i oversize on all my pants. i am like a true 30 waist, but i generally wear 32. in terms of how wide the same size waist fits i'd go with this ranking from wide to narrow:
wip>dickies>carhartt workwear
but that's only my experience. so you could give it a tts shot, if you don't want to go overtly baggy.

I'd go with the 874 flex if you haven't tried them. When I first got them, they had a nice loose fit but now that they shrank, they feel slim.
As a result, I tried the Rothco vintage Vietnam issue and I love them. I love these so much after wear shoddy poly/cotton pants for a while. You can't beat 100% cotton baggy bdu for skating.

Agreed, Polar 90s fit my leg type (athletic) pretty well and still allow tons of room and movement. There's still some avaliable on depop for around $60-80, but obviously that second hand stock will dry up.

Question for those who wear Volcom frickin modern pants. I am looking for something similar but with a better waist sizing (?). I am typically a 34 but those pants in that size end up fitting me like a pair of wranglers (too fitted on my butt), and my pairs of 36 fit great all around except I need a belt or they will fall. What alternatives do yall suggest to get? What a similar pants brand/style?
-
Just got the quasi utility pant and like the material a lot. It’s a nice medium weight canvas with good sized pockets. I went up 2 sizes (32 waist, I got 36s) and I’m very happy with the fit. Perfect taper. Overall, would recommend.

How is the length ? I'm tempted but they seem high-water in pictures and I'm not about that. Would you post a partial fit ?

I haven’t gotten a pair but judging by the way they fit in the clips I’ve seen- I would say they’re similar to a vintage Levi’s 560. Which you could find on eBay or even something like Grailed or depop for a reasonable price.

i'm gonna try the uniqlo wide fit jeans i think. they look pretty good on their website. just need to shorten them, since all sizes seem to come in a 34 length. they also have a new pant called baker pant, which looks like a mix of work/carpenter/fatigue pants. looks good, but looks like it's cut a bit short for my taste. probably best to hit the store and try them.

Has anyone else skated sportscraft pants?
While they aren't as baggy in appearance, I found them to be very breathable, and flexible enough to skate in.

Bought the santosuossos.
Coming from 42‘s Levi’s 550s I still feel like these run to big somewhat in a size 34.
Might have taken the 32‘s but they where too short for my 6‘1.
Does anybody have experience if you can alter such pants well enough without loosing their fit?
Might would give it a shot and give them To a tailor.
-
In the waist? Yeah you can. A couple of darts in the back, and its reversible.

Thought about the waist and taking small amount of thigh. But this might alter them too much, I assume
-
It depends on how much, Even in the waist, more then 1 inch can alter the fit slightly.
But yeah... its a nightmare to find loose fit jeans for us above 6ft. I'm 6'3, and Polar Big Boys in M fits pretty good, but the '93 and Butter Goods pants? No way.

For sure. Might just start learning altering pants on my own to do justice to my ocd.
Or just follow the train and buy big boys and get rid of these. I do dig the black wash and green stitches tho. Best colorway I’ve seen in all the pants

I had some size 32 Silvertabs (measured 33) altered to more of a 29 waist last year. I had tried to get them professionally altered before that, but the first lady I talked to just wouldn't do it because she said it would mess up the overall fit of the pants too much. The girl who did do it wasn't a professional but clearly knew what she was doing, and was able to also alter the pockets so that they didn't look out of place and keep the overall fit of the jeans. Those jeans were almost unwearable on me originally but are now one of my best fitting pants. So it's definitely doable, but you might need to find the right person if you're looking for a drastic change.

Xlarge herringbone twill 91 pant.
Anyone tried them?
I have the chance to get two pairs cheap but won't be able to try them on.
How baggy is the fit? And if I'm usually a 34, should I go for that size, or will they be fucking massive (that's their "extra large" size according to their website)?
Also, are they comfortable to skate in?
Thanks.

Update on quasi utility pants
The fabric feels nice, heavy duty, like carhartt work pants. I got them in 34 and they're true to size in waist I'd say. Nice baggy tapered fit, nothing excessive like big boys. The length however is really short, total length is around 40" and inseam is 29". That's way too short for me, I'm sending those back.

Volcom Frickin Modern is a more slim fitting pant. Looking for a pant with the same wit but looser in the butt is going to be hard.
Maybe Dickies Skateboarding Slim Straight pants? I notice Dickies fits higher waisted, so you might be able to get away with going a size up in those and they may fit a little more loose where you want them to.

Just listed a bunch of baggys on depop if anyone is interested. https://www.depop.com/wordscurbs/

So I’ve got a hack for you folks:
If you buy Levi’s 550 in big and tall with a 38in inseam and hem it to 32 it’s the same leg opening as a Polar ‘93. Levi’s stores offer cheap hemming or it’s like $10 in Chinatown. With sales you’ll then get a way cheaper pair of the same fit.
-
(https://i.imgur.com/LaUNJ4O.jpg?1)
These are Carhartt B11 Loose Fit Duck Carpenter pants, I originally bought in 34x34 and they were way too long so I took them down to the local dry cleaners and they hemmed them for $8. I think they're a pretty good pair of baggies for ~$50 all in.
If I did it again, I don't think I'd hem them quite so short because they flood a bunch when I'm skating (although some people prefer that look), and I'd maybe ask them to taper the leg into the hem a bit like the Polar 92s.
However, they're super comfortable and easy to skate in.

well she’s like 5’4 and a woman - so that doesn’t help me whatsoever lol. I’m 5’11 170 with meat castles for thighs and calves, I think mediums would be my best best but any input would be great from someone. Size medium has 14” thighs and 9” leg opening from their size chart. Pretty comparable to a polar big boy or santosuosso denim from what I’m gathering.

If they were a tiny big baggier they could effectively end this thread. The rapid rate which pants are bagging out will only lead us back to this pant. They are the new 874…

Just by sizes alone they are too big for my taste, but seems like they are nice enough, I know dilo wears them from time to time and he looks alright in them, I’m sure if you want to you could pull them off, just don’t wear chucks or something slimmer and you’ll be fine lol

I got some wide legged pants. Opening was way too big….they were cheap so getting them tapered worked fine. I’d just double check on the opening is to your liking….

^Thanks for comment! How's the fabric?
Regarding leg opening - I'm happy with Levis Stay Loose 34 waist and Levis 501 34-36 waist pants. No need to alter.

I got pants…utility looking ones with weird front pockets…not jeans. I think the quality is good. I could see the denim being on the thin side, but I’m just guessing.
I got stay loose too…same deal, I found the leg opening a tiny bit too big. I just hate catching the heel under my shoes.

Cheers for the feedback!
I know I can rely on SLAP for top pants advice. 8)

Update… ordered 550’s off the levi website and these fit great. I never really liked how the overly baggy pants looked on me so i just ordered one size up from my true waist. Fit feels great.
I guess i was hesitant because i’m scarred for life by the way Kohl’s levis always fit lol

Any cheap loose fitting pants I should look into? Preferably chino/twill or something, not necessarily jeans?
Not really focused on aesthetic, more so a comfortable pair of skate pants.
I've got some Altamont pants several years ago in a size too big and they are so comfortable skating. I think I got them on clearance for like $10.

Any cheap loose fitting pants I should look into? Preferably chino/twill or something, not necessarily jeans?
Not really focused on aesthetic, more so a comfortable pair of skate pants.
I've got some Altamont pants several years ago in a size too big and they are so comfortable skating. I think I got them on clearance for like $10.
Nothing as cheap as $10, but I don't think you can beat dickies for value. Loose fit cargos are $30 and $35 double knees. After a couple of washes they're super soft/comfortable.

I'll check those out thanks. I got some Dickies a couple years ago that were great, but their standard work pants are way too strange feeling for me.
If I remember, buying directly from their site, they usually have some discount running nonstop. You can get a lot of their pants for even cheaper directly through them.

Yeah they constantly have discounts, and usually your order will come with a 20% coupon as well. Plus free shipping and returns. If I'm ordering a new fit I'm unsure about, I'll order 2-3 sizes and return the wrong ones.
The initial starchiness of dickies can definitely be weird, you just have to commit to softening them. I've heard of people putting them in the drier with tennis balls or old wheels for a couple of cycles to beat the stiffness out of them. I've even heard that people drag them behind their car, though I'm not sure if I believe that. But once you get past that starchy feeling, I think they feel amazing. Super soft, almost like scrubs or something.

For every person who likes Dickie’s, there’s someone else throwing them in the trash. They are not a perfect pant by any means but have been adopted culturally by skating and fit the right price point.
My advice would be to try them on, and don’t feel bad if they don’t work for you…..

I would start by hitting your local thrift stores and digging through the pants sections for awhile. It'll take longer than online shopping, but there's great deals to be found and usually a wide selection of fits. And since Dickies are more common these days, I usually will find at least a pair or two in my size when I go. Another plus is that everything will be broken in and pre-shrunk too!

Ben Davis trim fit are a good high quality start and I often buy Carhartt WIP Simple Pants off Depop for cheap.

Update… ordered 550’s off the levi website and these fit great. I never really liked how the overly baggy pants looked on me so i just ordered one size up from my true waist. Fit feels great.
I guess i was hesitant because i’m scarred for life by the way Kohl’s levis always fit lol
Worked at Kohls for 4 years through the my senior year of HS + college. I can tell you that all the Vans, Levis, Nike's etc that they sell (and other department stores like them) are the bottom of the barrel of all those brands. Lower quality, weirder designs and colors, it just doesn't add up.
Take any of these brands products and compare them to the Kohls brand and the quality is day/night.

I think there is a whole outlet mall tier of manufacturing…..kohls is in the same realm….

Prana Brion is like a baggy men's yoga pant. Four way stretch, breathable quick dry. Hell no to soaked cotton swamp ass.

Swung past the local vintage store today, has been good for new pants in the past and today was no different.

I d say a baggier fit than Surf pants and heavier material. The feel is similar to surf pants but the material feels thicker and nicer if that makes sense. Probably not as good for hot summer days though.

I got some of those asos ultra baggy pants. Honestly they skate so good for the $25 I payed. Those and the haggar pants that Ben Degros recommended have been my two main choices for skating. Both fit really comfy, the material feels nice (not too thick so you melt from heat), but they haven't ripped or frayed so far. I got some dickies too but honestly the quality has been super inconsistent for me so I'm just giving them to friends.

How are levis 550s fitting these days
I love ‘em.
I’m a 34/36, but get the 42x32.
That’s if you want baggy. I’d go up one size for loose.
Thanks bro you get the ones off the levi website or are they older joints?
Chiming in on 550s, I'm a waist 30 and ordered a 38 off of eBay. Not too knowledgeable on Levi's but I'm pretty sure these are pretty recent and not vintage. They got a red tag if that means anything. Anyways, pretty stoked on how they fit and they are def more affordable than the other options

I've been rocking the "CASH ONLY BAGGY DENIM JEANS"
Really comfy jean, can get hands into pockets easy unlike the Volcom Lopez jeans
A handy thing imo is that they come with a draw string along with belt holes so you have an option.
Waist is true to size and still baggy through the legs and quads.

for lightweight i would say the b324, its a relaxed fit carpenter pant. size up on the waist is almost necessary imo
or the b151 for a looser and even lighter fit.

I grabbed a pair of Volcom Billow plus. Unfortunately I have to recommend this pant….they come in black, definitely some bag but still hang. They hang on hips so they are a bit bigger I am a 30”, I usually buy 32”, I bought 31” and I could have prolly pulled a 30”.
Super cheap too….like $28USD because the brand seems to be acting like ambercrombie or some shit…..
Uniqlo seems to be cranking out decent shit too as I had expected…..

Uniqlo denim work pants are fantastic. Don’t think they are on the site anymore but I just got a pair in the cream color in store. Their pants aren’t always long enough for me but these ones are perfect baggy and stacking. Super comfy too and only $50

Uniqlo Wide Fit jeans, the denim is light, bagginess reminds me of blind jeans but tapered and tts in the waist. They are very baggy, like polo american flag jeans or levi 550/541 but up two sizes. The best part about it is that they alter the length to your size so it doesn't have to drag under the heel of your sneaker.

They are available online with alterations (in the US anyway) but be sure to measure the inseam from the bottom of the rise/crotch.

I was referring to the regular Carhartt, not WIP versions. The regular ones are around $45. $140 for a pair of pants is pretty nuts, especially if you're gonna skate them.

My point was instead of spending $25 on a pair of dickies, I’d rather see what the normie world has to offer. Another lane I missed is thrifting….as well as having a decent dry cleaner, tailor, or doing alterations yourself….no shame in just spending the dough either….

I've got a dry cleaner down the street and he hems my jeans for $10/pair. I used to have a machine and do it myself, but the thing weighed 30 pounds and I just got sick of moving it.

I hem all my pants myself. Used to taper the leg before athletic taper cuts became easily available, take in the waist, add crotch gussets, patch blowouts from biking. Having thick/short legs in the dark ages before affordable stretch denim made it a necessity, learning how to make my pants fit back in highschool led to a lot of other creative endeavors. Cuffed doesn't look good on most people and dragging your pants behind your heels is for juggalos.

I d say a baggier fit than Surf pants and heavier material. The feel is similar to surf pants but the material feels thicker and nicer if that makes sense. Probably not as good for hot summer days though.
I just came back to say I ve worn them a few times and still think they are super comfy. However I m going to have them tailored a bit slimmer. I love baggy pants and only wear them to skate but I just have to admit: These railway chinos, even true to size, make me feel like a clown.

Pant crisis.
Any recommendations for a good summer pant, ideally surf pant material or a tad thicker, that isn't elastic waist, has a belt loop. And is long (34 inseam). Good thigh room, but not super aggressive taper.
Ideally something that fits like a 36 ben davis, or 34/36inch polar 93 (from a few years ago) but lightweight
Not too expensive too if possible lol

I'm in need of the same thing... Just got some Cargo pants from Active 50% off and they are way too hot to skate in... Should make a good winter skate pant though.
I'm definitely going to grab some B151s... Anyone have any experience with Theories Lounge pants? They're on sale and look like they could be a good option but they're still a bit pricey for me.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated!

Any recommendations for a good summer pant, ideally surf pant material or a tad thicker, that isn't elastic waist, has a belt loop. And is long (34 inseam). Good thigh room, but not super aggressive taper.
Ideally something that fits like a 36 ben davis, or 34/36inch polar 93 (from a few years ago) but lightweight
Not too expensive too if possible lol
Thanks for the suggestions.
Carhartt b151s exactly what I was after
I'm in need of the same thing... Just got some Cargo pants from Active 50% off and they are way too hot to skate in... Should make a good winter skate pant though.
I'm definitely going to grab some B151s... Anyone have any experience with Theories Lounge pants? They're on sale and look like they could be a good option but they're still a bit pricey for me.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated!
I have the theories lounge pants houndstooth and can’t skate in them because the material is way too soft, almost like heavy duty sweat pants. I personally want something sturdier for skating even if it’s thinner denim. Great for just chillin around the house tho, they are v comfy

i wish they made this pant in the 'relaxed fit'. a size 34w is tight on me but i like how it fits through the legs. a 36w would be ideal for my waist but they look gigantic from the knee down. the lightweight material is clutch, i just need something with more of a taper

Exactly. I have the same issue. I ended up buying a pair of relaxed fit carpenters and had to take them to the local dry cleaner for tailoring. It was reasonably affordable but i don't want to do that for every pair I buy

any of them polar pants fit close to the ceeblues denim/chino fit?

I bought a Genuine dickies pleated painter pant from vinted with an integrated elastic waist system. Even going 2 size up from my regular size is compensated by this, and almost no need for belt.
Never seen the model in Europe before but it's perfect to feel like Ryan Lay. So If anyone have an ID on this

Polar doesn't list exact measurements on their site anymore, just tag size, but I'd say the 44 pants are closest to ceeblues pants. Materials and detailing aren't going to be nearly as nice though.

anyone know pants that would be similar in material to dickies 874, but be in the carpenter style with hammer loop and utility pockets?

I grabbed the Uniqlo wide fit Jean and it’s….not that wide.
It does fit in the realm of loose fit but more so in the normie realm and not the current skate game…..
Denim is thin and comfy, cheap….not mad but don’t love them.

Update on my railway chinos: Got them back today from my tailor who is an old lady. Usually I just go there rarely to shorten pants that are too long. She did a perfect job and the pants still feel baggy but are much better for me now. She said it’s a nice material, wondered why they don’t use stretch for skating (I personally don’t like it). In the end she smiled You know I cut half your pants away and they re still baggy haha
She was super interested in the movements of skating and what pants cuts benefit them and to what extend it’s only fashion. If I had time she would have nerded out on pants and cuts for hours. If I d ask her to make custom pants, I m sure she d be down. So cool!

i just made the best haul ever courtesy of my late bros old wardrobe, which my mom implied me to take anything from that i want before she gives the rest away.
that is pretty much all, i'm just psyched. i also found an old sick of it all hoody with a shitty tribal on the back and some old ass dunks. as an almost middle aged man i'm excited to cosplay as my 15 year old self the coming months.
if you want to know what i found then you can keep reading. otherwise stop here.
i found:
a brown, fairly baggy stussy cord pant. the cord runs crosswise, so its not like ridges, it's like checkered... it looks pretty sick
this baggy as fuck diesel jeans that has some taper, wearing these i imagined this is what the philly pant might look like on me.
a benetton jeans with a diy double knee cause my mom wouldn't let my bro go out with destroyed kneecaps.
all these seem super sturdy even after all these years. super thick denim.
there was another benetton jeans i've worn before. that one is sick cause it's super light, it's probably just a cotton pant that looks like denim. feels like wearing a surf pant.
also i plundered my own old independent eman jeans, a beige carpenter pant(also super light weight, so great for warm weather) and this sick trekking pant. it's one of those cargos with zip off legs. fucking sick.
shout outs to my bro mark. miss you and o

Anyone tried the passport digger pants? I peeped them and they seemed solid, but a lil thick to the point where I could see them feeling too warm when skating. They also costed 3x as much as the baggy asos jeans I got which have been amazing honestly. I also had a look at some quasi and xlarge pants (the xlarge ones felt really nice) but I struggle to justify getting any of them when they're 3x as much as these asos pants.
-
I tried them and they fit a lot like the Carpet C Star pants. Basically like Surf Pants but out of a thicker material. They're pretty nice but I just didn't like the aesthetics of the stitching much in person.
I honestly haven't found an all around better denim for me than 550's sized 1 waist size up.
-
@LebowskisRug i have been eyein some 550s for months now but never pulled the trigger cuz they looked like they tapered too much. Maybe because I was looking at the orange tag 90s models. I think imma grab some off grailed or somewhere similar. you got a fit pic?

I do not have a fit pic, but they do not really taper. They're basically like a nicer looking Polar 93 Denim.

I've got a pair of Polar 92 Jean's and love the fit but they're too hot for summer. Need something more lightweight and breathable.

hmmmmm.......i got the magenta OG cords that are nice and roomy in the thigh area and have a good amount of taper. I am usually a 32 waist but sized up to 34.....like the fit but they are rather short i feel like!
Just got the Magenta Loose Pants/ drawstring pants, so they are not classic chinos but fit nice....they don't taper as much as the OG Cords but i can still see my shoes with them. Got them in XL and are kinda similar to surf pants in Large but thicker material- so not a classic chino but you might wanna think about them considered you want comfy pants to skate in

Has anyone here had the newer Dickies Skate pants? I've seen a few people out with the "slim" pant but they're not particularly slim at all. Kind of a nice loose fit. Probably not baggy by a lot of this thread's standards but I think they look nice.
-
Is the sizing similar in Dickies 874 flex and regular?
-
Is the sizing similar in Dickies 874 flex and regular?
That's what I'd like to know. The few times I've seen them in the wild they looked quite similar. Maybe a TAD smaller in the leg opening but nothing a size up couldn't fix.
Reason I ask is because their older skate line was a little thinner and more breathable in the summer than standard Dickies. Those were also a little slimmer than I prefer, but I've seen that they updated their skate line this year and I'd like some thinner chinos for these humid ass days.
-
the regular and flex are the same. the flex may seem looser bc of the material, but they are the same pant. the flex will also potentially stretch whereas the standards are less likely too.
as for the skate line, the slim pant they make is the thinner more breathable that comes in flex. while the straight fit skate pant is non flex and less breathable
-
Dockers pants are very breathable and super loose, I’m sure you can find some for dirt cheap online, I’m currently wearing cargos from them in 30C heat and they feel really nice.
Lee chinos are also great. I have a pair I’ve been skating with for 2 years now and it’s durable but still breathable, actually any brand of pants for old people do the trick.

Been looking forward to these. Might have to take it back to the DM's for measurements.
EDIT: Took it to the DM's said waist is true to size, not novelty like Polar. "Baggy with a tapper"
-

Sizing is the same, but don't bother with the flex ones. Unless they've changed them in the last few years; they hardly stretch at all, the fabric looks weirdly shiny, and they shrink significantly in the wash. Just go with the regular ones and go up at least one size in the waist.

As a fellow tall I accepted it too. I've looked at some skate brand pants but cant trust an M or L as sizing choices.
Related to the thread LL bean relaxed fit jeans one size up or even true to size have been really good for me. Good room but not super wide at the bottom.

same here, being 6ft 3 i always find with the small, medium, large scenario companies are putting out these days that even when sizing up hoping for a better length they just end up massive round the waist but the leg length is kept the same so they're still too short.
happened a number of times now. getting annoying always sending shit back and waiting for a refund.
with all these companies i find it jokes that its such a chore to find some comfy trousers that fit to skate in.
is it so hard to make trousers for us long legged folks.
only pairs I've found that fit me nice lately are the navy santa cruz painter pants.
-
i hate to admit that i'm finding comfort in hearing about other tall bros who are having trouble finding comfortable, loose pants that have an appropriate length. while i agree that most skate brands are tough for us, dickies and carhartt have always treated me well but would like to explore other options

6"5'. Bought some Huf pants for cheap in an XL one time, never again.
Walmart (Dickies or Wrangler) when I'm being cheap, outdoor brands like LL Bean or Eddie Bauer when I'm spending a little more, and clearance at the Levi's outlets is surprisingly fruitful.

Randomly found the cromer pants on the huf website. Fuck it, I bought the wine colored ones because I have far too many light wash jeans. Excited to see how they fit

The polar surf pants have been my go to all summer. Super comfortable even in hot temperatures. They’re expensive but worth it imo

I second the surf pants. Pricey, but you can get them on sale if you do some searching/waiting. Perfect fit for me - nice and loose, plenty of room in the seat/crotch/thighs, but just enough taper so you’re not stepping on them. A lot of brands make that style of pants now, but Polar got the fit exactly right. I want to try the cord surf pants when the weather cools off, but I can never find them anywhere in Canada in an XL.

those rothcos look good!
also posted in the random questions thread, but figured i'd ask here too- has anyone found a way to successfully stretch the waist on a pair of 874s?
Hot water and fabric softener helps a bit, but at the end of the day I've accepted that I just have to size up on 874s.
Same. I'm a 34 in every pant except dickies, I have to size up to 36.
One hack I started doing when my waist size grew but I had no money: take an exacto knife and cut a vertical slit underneath each belt loop, careful to not cut the loop though. Also you can cut a vertical slit on either side of the clasp, buys you about .5”-1” idk I never measured but it’s saved me a lot of money on pants. Best part, it’s under the loops so no one can see it haha

I think they're commonly referred to as chef's pants or scrubs too. I know that Cookman makes pants that are really similar in material and a lot cheaper, but I think they're less baggy than the surf pants.

Scrubs are definitely similar but the material is way too thin. Chefs pants could work, kitchens are notoriously hot but I think they come In white a lot of the time. Would be worth checking a uniform supply store if you have one in your town

Gap has these ones (https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=818901032&pcid=999&vid=1&&searchText=easy%20pants). I don’t have these exact ones, but I have a pair in the same fit. Not quite as loose as the Polar surfs, but the price is right. Slightly shorter inseam than the Polar ones, so get the ‘tall’ ones if that’s a concern.

I'm pretty sure I have a pair of these and they're a part of the Uniqlo U line, which is a special collaboration they do with this designer, Lemarie. Most of the stuff from that line is only released for a season at a time and doesn't come back after that unfortunately. I've been on the lookout for another pair fo them and haven't had any luck yet.

I'll check for the surf pants on sale, but are there any other brands that make something comparable for me to look out for as well?
Is that style of pant universally called surf pants or do they also call those something else as well?
Gap has these ones (https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=818901032&pcid=999&vid=1&&searchText=easy%20pants). I don’t have these exact ones, but I have a pair in the same fit. Not quite as loose as the Polar surfs, but the price is right. Slightly shorter inseam than the Polar ones, so get the ‘tall’ ones if that’s a concern.
Ah, thanks! I appreciate it, I'll look into it.

The theories stamp lounge pant fits very similar to the surf pant and is a little bit thicker. Im 6 2 and they fit me nice and aren’t too short. Skated in them twice and felt great even though it was like 90 out
https://www.theoriesofatlantis.com/collections/theories/products/theories-stamp-lounge-pants-hay-contrast-stitch
I'm kicking myself for not getting these when they were on sale. I hate paying a bunch for pants, but they were at a reasonable price and I didn't pull the trigger.
Thanks man, you're the best! I'm pretty much looking for any of them with contrast stitching, but especially Hay or Black.
Does anyone have any advice for buying any of these pants online second-hand on the cheap? I've never done that before, so I don't know where to start.

Wanted to pull the trigger on these, but 27” inseam on a medium? That’s a pass for me, MAYBE a large gets a 29” inseam which is still 4-5” too short for me. Bummer.

HUF Cromers landed I’ll do a full measurement and review this weekend.
Quick thoughts. Denim is light feels decent. Cut is way close to the Philly Jean, like almost the same dimensions. I’ll do the try ons and grab photos but these may be going back since I already have the Philly in almost the same wash.

Can you get a leg opening measurement too if that's not too much work for you?

Anyone got that full butter goods size chart? It was posted in here awhile back but I can't find it here or online anymore.
-
Does anyone have the "newer" Polar 93's? The size chart says inside leg is 82-84cm in a L32. Which is like 10cm longer then previous.
-
I buy 93’s every season and haven’t noticed a change. Their 32 tagged inseams come out to about 29-29.5” inches. 34 tagged inseam is usually about 31”-32” and 30 tagged inseam is about 27”-28”.
-
Could you be so nice and measure the outerseam for me? Like total length! 110cm outerseam works Ok form me. Polar Big Boys size M is approx that, without being way too large in the waist.

Thank you dude, you're the best! They look quality but I think I'll have to pass on them. Definitely too tapered for my taste.

Appreciate the in depth overview. Think I’m gonna have to pass too because of the length. Love the fit and the shape of them though

Respect for the detailed review, have definitely been eyeing the Cromer's.

Are there any decent loose fit jeans with proper stretch (at least 2% elastane) in them? I love the fit of the Polar 93s but I could do with some stretch especially when they get really sweaty. Loosest jeans with stretch I have are Volcom Modown jeans and they’re more of a relaxed fit instead of loose.
-
They do look hella tapered. That’s what I don’t like about my Phillys. They look like I have a nappy on underneath then kinda taper to normal.

my favorite pants over the last year have been the one pair of freedome’s i own. i was debating trying some krooked’s but, haven’t really heard many reviews. i used to mostly wear levis/dickies and still like how they look & feel at times but, the jumpers have just been the go to for me lately due to comfort. was wondering how krooked/other pants compare due to freedomes being $100.

Thanks. For some reason the 550 seems to next to nonexistent in Europe. I did find Levi’s skateboarding baggy jeans but am wondering if those would be more similar to Polar Big Boys which don’t really work that well for me. Maybe I’ll order a pair to see how they fit.

I'd say a 36". They have built in drawstrings which solves that. I'm typically a 34 and they feel loose, like I'm relying more on the drawstrings than I am the elastic. I feel like the M wouldn't be as baggy though. I'm really interested to see how they fit after a shrink cycle in the dryer, these are unwashed.

Thanks. I should have specified that I’m looking for pants with stretch in the fabric. The waist is not the problem for me, it’s the crotch. I can’t wear my pants very high as they simply won’t stay there and look goofy on me. So if the rise of the pants is high and there’s no stretch, that can become a bit of a problem especially when the pants start becoming sweaty and start binding to my skin.

m65 model surplus cargos are usually very loose/baggy.

@Roisto juste saw your answer....was moving places the last weekend. 550 Levi's you can find on ebay mostly coming from England usually! 1 or 2 sizes up.
The Surf pants don't have stretch in em but move up/ highwater a bit with you just like dickies or carhartt workpants. if you get the surf pants the right size that should not be a problem too. worst case is you degrade the sufs to chiller pants/ non skating pants and have it real comfy! i wear my surfs to work in summer- always look fitting for my work environment and they are no hot boxes wich is nice!

i mean that's cause someone pulled the legopenings together, you can wear them straight legged, too. i like regular bdus more as well, you are correct that they won't be really baggy unless you size up tho.

this guys knows. I love the 93’s but if I need a lil more bag, I been running the OG denims in the dark blue with orange stitch. Fit is amazing. I’ll eventually snag the black and light wash. They have the Magenta OG chino Cords in the same fit but they only on Magenta website currently.

Sorry if I asked about this earlier, but does anyone here have the Vans Authentic Loose chino? I think those elastic baggy ones posted earlier might be too big for me, and I have a pair of the standard Vans chinos that are a tad too slim for my taste, so I'm sorta thinking Loose chino might be my goldilocks pant.
-
I know I am late to this game, but since I'm apparently at least one or two pant sizes up from what I was throughout my 30s, I pulled the trigger on some CCS relaxed original chinos and these things are pretty great. They're definitely not Polar Surf loose, which is fine as I am nearly 42 years old, but plenty loose for skating with a very nice, high quality cotton that softened nicely after just one washing. Definitely a pair of skate pants you could wear on a date or to work without being self-conscious. Price is great, too.
Since, as I noted, I am now a fully larger human being in need of new pants, I just ordered four more.
-
I just bought a couple pairs of 550s off a pal (shout out to @Urtripping ) and they're great. I bought TTS so they're loose but definitely not baggy, and they taper really nicely at the cuff. If you want a baggy fit, you probably need to order 1-2 sizes up in the waist.
Plenty of room in the thigh and knee, there's no stretch but I didn't feel inhibited at all skating.
-
I've managed to hold off on buying any Polar pants until recently when I finally caved and got the 44 cords from a crazy MLTD sale. They're not baggy per say but more of a loose wide leg fit similar to my Ceeblues and Butter Goods loose fit. I really like the fit of them but my only complaint is that the cord material is thick and kind of rough. Not as soft as any of my other cord pants, but maybe they'll break in and soften with wear.

Carhartt WIP costs the most then possibly Dickies (wearing Dickies in the UK is basically Cosplay) and then Levis Skateboarding.

same! i'm 6'3 about 195lbs and also rock an M-tall in the surf pants. i could definitely do a large also, but they would be baggier than id want. the M allows for the waist to stay put and still give me a good silhouette

Carhartt WIP costs the most then possibly Dickies (wearing Dickies in the UK is basically Cosplay) and then Levis Skateboarding.
What about just regular Levis? I always hear what people pay for dickies in the rest of the world and laugh… not worth it.

Those eS baggy pants look like they have some potential to be nice fitting, but given what I’ve heard about the shoes these days I’d be worried about quality

I just bought a couple pairs of 550s off a pal (shout out to @Urtripping ) and they're great. I bought TTS so they're loose but definitely not baggy, and they taper really nicely at the cuff. If you want a baggy fit, you probably need to order 1-2 sizes up in the waist.
Plenty of room in the thigh and knee, there's no stretch but I didn't feel inhibited at all skating.
Hell yeah glad they're working! I love a pair of 550s in 36x30. If you're 5'8"-6' and medium build, they'll be nice and loose but still have a nice noticeable taper and slim leg opening.
560s are sick too tho, you can buy tts and they are a baggier fit.

Anyone got that full butter goods size chart? It was posted in here awhile back but I can't find it here or online anymore.
Not sure if you've found it but here you go

I don't trust Volcom anymore after I got their shorts with such awful pockets that my phone would constantly fall out randomly. I forgot about that issue and put the shots on to go skating one day... My phone fell out while lightly pushing down the street (not even doing an ollie). First time I ever cracked a phone screen even a little bit.
I'm sure their pants are fine besides those, but "I don't trust like that".

That's borderline unforgivable but give them another chance, I have a pair of the billow jeans and don't have that problem.

quick question: How is the fit on the Polar 44 Pants compared to a 93 Jeans- Like width and inseam?
If i get the totally confusing sizing on the polar Page right they are fairly long?

So I have the the 93s and 44s in the same size. The 44's are more baggier (almost too much for my liking, if anyone is interested in olive 30x30, send me a dm!) and the inseam is slightly longer. I don't have to cuff the 93s; with the 44s, I do.

Was on the fence since they look to have a rather wide leg opening too, plus i am 5´7 and have rather short legs, so i guess these 44 Pants might not fit me well all around!
i mean, i could still hem them and all that but i don't wanna spend money unneccessarily on something at the moment!

Yeah I've been wearing Polar pants for years now, but I have to say the 44 are probably my least favorite in terms of cut. I'm six foot and for a size 32, they were baggy in all the wrong places. If you're going to get anything, the grund's I think are ten times better.

Was thinking of the Grund Chinos too because of the taper! Then again i recently got some dickies sized up and got a supergood deal on another pair of Surf Pants through a friend!
But i'll keep the grund chinos in mind if they go on sale

I’m looking for black chinos that fit like Levis 559. Anybody know of any?
I’ve tried:
Vans Authentic Chino Relaxed. A little too baggy and long for my taste. Not a fan of having to cuff my pants.
Volcom Chinos. Not feeling that little white stone on the side.
Dockers Chinos. None really seem to fit like the 559.

Levis seems to be the best quality jeans brand… got the 501 straight 1 o 2 waist sizes up, dont really like to be ultra loose haha
Recently noticed about they have a skateboards line.. i will try them in black
The fucking awesome three spiral denim shorts seems to be really nice to me, would like to order them but dont feel like riskeing spend that much for a shorts i dont know how they sizeing(live on spain)

I’ve got some nice loose fit black Volcom chinos without the stone logo on the leg. They’re probably 3 years old by now though and I can’t remember the exact model. Anyway, you can easily sharpie that logo black on black chinos. Makes it a lot less noticeable.

Granted this was years ago, but I got a pair of the skate 501s and they were quite slim. Slimmer than normal 501s, which I know aren't a very loose fit to begin with, but I was surprised. They're nice jeans and I still have them but they're too slim to skate in.
Also, popped my Polar cherry and got some Surf pants off Depop. It almost feels like cheating with how comfortable they are. I got a large and I reeeeally have to tug those drawstrings to get them to fit which makes me wanna try some mediums but either way I really like them.

Medium tall is the way, although I’ve found it hard to find them anywhere aside from the polar website

I'm kinda short so medium tall might be a bit too long for me, assuming the inseam is longer. I should probably just find some in a shop and try them on. I'm typically a 34, give or take, so according to their size chart I should be a large, but like I said, I gotta really tug those things to get them tight enough.

Gotcha. I think the size chart says inseam on large is the same as medium tall, so thought maybe if the large was good *except* the waist, they might work. That being said, medium is way easier to find. I just bought a new pair of large from the mltd sale that just ended because I never see medium tall anywhere.

Oh nice. I didn't see medium tall on the size chart so for some reason I just assumed they were longer lol. Even the larges are a little long and I'm deciding if I should just keep cuffing them or get them hemmed.

Get them hemmed. I’ve been taking my stuff down to the dry cleaner to get hemmed/repaired and it’s made such a difference, and it’s usually pretty cheap. I had a pair of carhartts that were way too long and got them hemmed for $12 and now they’re perfect. Especially if you’re every buying pants a size or two up to get the correct fit, getting them hemmed makes a huge difference

This man knows what's up, getting pants hemmed is so much cleaner of a look than rocking them cuffed, cut, or stacked a whole bunch (to me at least)

I usually get my pants hemmed but a part of me liked the extra baggage of the Polars a bit. I probably will hem those too as they're quite loose regardless.

Levi's makes a stay loose chino that they periodically have on their site. I have a pair and they are the loosest pants I can possibly wear.
Also the sizing with Polar changes with the drop. I have large surf pants from one drop and Medium Tall from another and the only difference in the waist is the length of the drawstring.

any tailor recommendations in the east bay area? I had some enjoi denim hemmed and tapered which was pretty expensive (costed more than the pant's sale price). Looking for a reliable place to get some hemming done for a decent price. I don't think I need any tapering work anytime soon which I think was the main contribution to the overall price of the labor.

I was at Burlington Coat Factory last week and saw some Levi’s Skateboarding Work Pant Chinos. $25, they had black and khaki. They didn’t have my size unfortunately. They look and felt great though, might pick up a pair on eBay. They also had a good amount of Carhartt’s in different styles.

quick question: How is the fit on the Polar 44 Pants compared to a 93 Jeans- Like width and inseam?
If i get the totally confusing sizing on the polar Page right they are fairly long?
thanks a lot for the solid answer!
Was on the fence since they look to have a rather wide leg opening too, plus i am 5´7 and have rather short legs, so i guess these 44 Pants might not fit me well all around!
i mean, i could still hem them and all that but i don't wanna spend money unneccessarily on something at the moment!
Are the 44s baggier than Dickies 874s?

Just grabbed a pair of WKND Loosies; Shorts and Pants. I like the shorts a LOT. The pants also fit well but the inseam is a little short for me (but I knew that going in). Haven't skated in them yet so I'll update later. I wasn't sure about the elastic waist, but they have belt loops so it's been fine.
-
Is this thread specifically about blue jeans or are cargo pants included?
I rock baggy black cargos almost exclusively when skating.
I'd encourage anyone interested in baggy cargos to hit up their local army surplus store. Baggy cargos in damn near unlimited colors and they're tough as nails. And cheap.

Love how lightweight and mobile the pants are. Excited to try them.

I haven’t personally tried them but I’ve been noticing a lot of guys wearing them on Instagram recently. Carl aikens has some clips in them and I’ve also noticed Brian Odwyer. They look like your standered baggy taper fit like silvertabs. They look pretty good on but they are super pricy

I got some Carharrt B-11 pants in black a couple of days ago. Am I cool now?
Also got some of the BN2291-M lighter canvas stretch ones in a relaxed fit for something in between and they are quite nice!
Honestly none of my clothes fit me properly anymore after going into dad bod mod (partially why I started skating again for forced fun exercise) I am not a 32 or 34 waist + medium t-shirt guy anymore. 36 and large all day. Feels good to stop lying to myself and not feel restricted by my old clothes.

pretty standard baggy fit pants in terms of the standard these days. Good thigh room, waist measures bigger than the tag, good taper but not too aggressive towards the shoe openings. I honestly compare them in between polar 93’s and big boys. A solid middle ground pant and a sick company to boot. C star for life baby

Hell yeah thank you! Sounds like the Butter Goods baggy fit based on your description. If you own a pair, do you have any fit pics in them you'd be willing to post? I'd love to see them actually on someone, which has also been really hard to find online lol. Would send a couple gnars your way forsure!

I just got the loosie jeans and the shorts. The elastic waist is still a little weird to get used to, it makes the pants super top heavy and doesn’t stay up super well so I still wear mine with a belt. The fit on both is great, the denim is nice. The right front pocket has a weird little divider that takes a bit of getting used to, sometimes my phone doesn’t drop all the way into the pocket. The rear pockets are very big, sort of jnco-ish.
I wish the inseam on the jeans was slightly longer but I’m also very tall and they still manage to just hit the top of my shoes. I’ve been wearing the shorts a ton though and I love the look, sort of the perfect baggies. If there’s a good discount on them, I’d say pull the trigger.

Depends on the size/style but generally speaking yes. Can’t recommend the silver tabs enough, great pants overall

Got the ripstop version (not denim or cords or whatever) and it's really comfortable but I haven't gotten to skate in them yet.
Nice and light weight and loose and doesn't seem like its too hot temperature-wise.
Sorry I can't comment on skating yet, but I have a feeling they are going to be great.
Edit: got to skate them today. Definitely comfortable to skate in. They're light and not overly baggy or anything. A nice sort of medium loose. Front pockets are DEEP in a good way. The divider in the right pocket is awesome too due to how deep the pockets are.
Only downsides are the openings at the ankles are a little too big for me (probably perfect for people who usually skate moderately loose pants... They're not wild by any means). And the butt pockets are sketch. Definitely not putting my wallet back there. It's like you're asking to get pick pocketed if you have anything valuable back there... They're wide open. A button or velcro would solve that easily... Might try to get some sewn in mine. Luckily the great front pocket means I can keep my wallet in front.
They aren't restrictive while skating. Feel great with a belt. No complaints. Insane value for how cheap I got them ($28). Wouldn't pay $90 for them but depending how long they last they are definitely worth grabbing at $40-60 if you're not cheap like me.

Has anyone got a good alternative to polar 93s in terms of fit and cut? I have a pair and they have the perfect degree in baggieness, but i‘m kinda over the little guy stitched into the pockets and also don‘t want to be spending that much on jeans.

Levi’s 550s a waist up from your usual is a nice start. i get mine in 38s and love em. perfect amount of bag without going too crazy. you can find em on ebay/depop for cheap. just remember to size up especially on vintage ones

Thanks! I already tried that but the pair i got fitted way slimmer than the 93s i have. Maybe i have to go two or three sizes up.

The 550s are closer to the 92s, even if you size up. The Gap has some baggy jeans that are close to a 93, maybe in between a 93 and Big Boy.

Unfortunately the gap is hard to come by where i‘m from in europe.

I got the ones from earlier in the year and now ordered these which I’m interested to see the changes. I’m happy with mine…they have a slight taper, they fit TTS….I wouldn’t say they are wide….or baggy…but what the thread says… loose….
-
has anyone tried out the Fucking Awesome Fecke jeans? i'm eyeing a pair right now but wanna hear some reviews before i pull the trigger
Sure have and I love them. Definitely less baggy than the Santuosso's, fit is somewhere in between a 93 Jean and Big boy, with a bit more length in the leg and a higher crotch. Leg opening is very similar to a pair of 93's. I went TTS and they were plenty baggy enough, any bigger and they start ballooning out a little bit around the hips which looked kind of funny.
Price tag stung a little bit but definitely not disappointed with them, thinking about copping another pair in the black if I can get them on sale anywhere. Would definitely recommend pulling the trigger if your still on the fence about them.

They're based on Levi's silvertab baggy fit. Look for ones that are USA made. I've had about a dozen pairs and liked them immensely more that the 93s in terms of quality

for folks that are 5’6 what size did u with for big boys?

I got those in my waist size 32. Good option for a cheap-ish "cleaner" look than 550s. Nice taper, pretty wide in the thighs but nothing like big boys or the Asos equivalent. I'm 6'2 and the length is fine with me, I wear them high on the waist and the leg reaches the top of my shoes.

Been wearing big boys size small and getting the inseam hemmed for a minute but im starting to feel goofy in them and thinking of switching to 93s but the sizing is so wonky. My pitch black secondhand 32s measure 34 waist and I wear 32 waist.. is this how they all fit? Cant decide if I should size down or buy 32 in the new drop for a loose fit without jeans boner

Yes, 93's are for sure vanity sized. I typically get the 32, but I have no problem wearing the size 30 either.

Thanks for confirming. Noticed they got rid of the size chart… hopefully they still do vanity sizing with the latest drop cuz It will be annoying to size down then have to size back up again lol.

If anyone is in the market for baggy corduroy pants that won't break your wallet, Uniqlo U is dropping a pair that looks really good on October 6th. Comes in three colors, most sizes, and has a full size chart, which is so handy when all these other brands make you guess. Only $60 too....
https://www.uniqlo.com/us/en/products/E452156-000/00?colorDisplayCode=38&sizeDisplayCode=030
I feel like the product shots don't do these justice either. I have a pair of Uniqlo U cords from their A/W line two years ago and they're one of my favorite pairs of pants. Fit perfectly, super comfortable, high quality cord material, and get a lot of compliments. I've worn them and skated in them a lot over the last two years and they're still going strong.

yep these are the ones from uniqlo. I seen dudes like Ronnie kessner and brad cromer rockin em. Fit is fantastic

Just hop on them early if you want your size! The good Uniqlo U stuff used to sell out quickly, but I don't know if they still have the same kind of traction now.

Almost all I wear nowadays comes from Uniqlo. Haven’t had the cords but I have a bunch of their wide fit work pants and jeans and they are all fantastic. Great fit and super comfy and solid quality all around

Finally got to skate in all of these pants I got on sale (crazy sales, so I might be biased and going a bit easy on some of these compared to if I paid anywhere near full price).
From worst to best:
Vans Chino Loose Fit are way too huge. Wider waist than advertised, and comically long. I have to cuff them so many times, and then I just have these giant rings of fabric knocking around my ankles while skating lol. I have no choice but to get them hemmed. They're pretty heavy, so hopefully after hemming them they won't be so bad. They're also a bit loud when walking (crinkling/deep swoosh). These things are REALLY baggy if you're into aesthetic over function. Loosest pair of pants I've ever owned, and won't be wearing them again until I got the waist and legs hemmed. Really love the "Buckthorn Brown" color on these, the look of them is awesome.
Vans Chino Relaxed Fit are also a bit big in the waist (at least 1-1.5 inches bigger than advertised after trying to shrink them), but at least the length is cuff-able for me. These are a comfortable amount of baggy, rather than a performative amount of baggy. Probably what most other brands would consider "loose fit". Would recommend these over the Loose Fit for skating. They have some mobility issues, but will hopefully get better with wear/washes. I think these could be decent skate pants once they loosen up. Will probably get the waist hemmed. A bit heavy for my taste.
For both of those I had to choose between sizing up and down from my true size. In the future would absolutely size down on the Loose Fit, and would probably still size down on the Relaxed Fit. I'm seeing reviews online saying their sizing is really inconsistent even within the same fit, so might want to only buy those if you can try them in person first. Both pants are also a bit stiff, but hopefully that will go away with wear/wash.
Theories Lounge Pants these things are pretty nice. Heavier than the pants below but still lightweight. Not as fluid as as the pants below, but definitely not stiff. Sort of hinder movement a little bit, but not a dealbreaker... I don't know a ton about pants but I think a gusseted crotch is in order here since the stitching is what is hindering my legs having full independent movement. Pretty decent pair of pants though quality wise. My only major complaint is the side pockets are sideways (vertical opening) and start lower on the pants than normal pants. I'm not sure if they are very secure too since they aren't very deep, has me very concerned about my phone since the phone has to sit in it sideways... really unnerving. Pants are pretty loose looking, but it doesn't get in the way of function... only the crotch stitching affects movement. These are decent for skating, but aren't perfect.
Vans Elastic Range Relaxed Elastic are really nice. These ones actually fit true to size. Lightweight, cool, slightly stretchy, and move with you well. A bit crinkly sounding but it doesn't get in the way of movement. Seem like they are lower quality than Theories Lounge, but feel better for skating. Not a fan of how the material feels to touch (2% elastic), but these things move so well. Definitely recommend these for skating, but I'm concerned about durability in regards to friction.
WKND Loosies Ripstop (not denim/cords) are my favorite long pants I've ever skated in. Fit well, feel great, closest thing to skating in shorts I've had from a long pant. Lightweight, cool, and super fluid but not swishy. Good quality.Their back pockets are awful (wide open for pickpocket), but their front pockets are huge (and compartmentalized), so it makes up for it. Sucks the color is not my jam. It has some lame logo embossed(?) into the back pocket, but luckily for my colorway the embossing is the same color as the pants so you can't see it. Hope they release more of these in the future, but especially in black.
No idea on what type of durability these pants will all have. Let me know if anyone has questions about any of them.
This batch of pants has got me hooked on loose/lightweight/cool pants with elastic waists. Anyone have any recommendations for pants like this I should check out next?

My favorite pants ever, maybe. My only beef is that for the price, it should’ve been a heavier/sturdier cord.

The WKND Loosie denim is also super light and comfortable. if you like the ripstop version, you might like the denim. I got the shorts and the pants and I've been wearing both a ton. Very short inseam on the jeans though so buyer beware if you don't like that look.

i pretty much only hit the thriftstore nowadays, but if i get something new, first place i look is uniqlo. those workpants they sell rn look super nice. the only pair of pants i'd want or still need would be a dark blue pair, i might buy in. but they also have a fairly loose looking selvedge jeans on their site. i kind of want to hit the local store and check them out.

Got a pair of polar 93 jeans in the mail. The 32 length seems to be…a bit short, but man, they are quite comfortable.
Nice happy medium in terms of weight and pretty soft. Stoked to wear them more though my wife was like “oh, well this is a different look for you” in…not a good tone. Haha

Don't know anything about these but 11oz chef pants seems counter intuitive. Isn't the point of chef pants is that they are super light weight and cool?
Also they list three possible material combinations? So what, it's a dice roll if they're 100% cotton or stretchy? Seems strange to me, but what do I know...

The gramiccis are nice. Solid twill and reinforced in all the right places. No stretch to 'em, obviosuly. They run less relaxed than my Polar surf pants but it's the same idea
Watch out for the 32 inseam though. That works for me as a tall guy but it's longer than usual

32 inseam? Gramacci operate in XS-XL? How tall are you? I need XL in Polar surfs for them to be just long enough.
I'd like to try some Gramaccis!

Probably go with the loose fit, although carhartts fit long so you can usually size down in length especially since you want a lower rise. 33x34 should get you right, if you want baggier just size up the waist

Not sure about that specific model, but I’d avoid any of the relaxed fit stuff if you’re looking for a “baggy fit”
I bought some Carhartt relaxed fit jeans earlier this year and they are surprisingly tight, almost like spandex haha. All the loose fit stuff is great though - both the utility pants and the jeans…

The relaxed fit is definitely my preferred fit, but it’s not baggy. The loose fit is super baggy and the sizing is all over the place. I bought my normal size in the loose fit and I had to cuff the bottoms multiple times. Ended up taking them to get them hemmed

Yeah, no matter what fit the lengths are crazy. I’m typically a 32” length but with Carhartts I have to go down to at least 30” (or sometimes 29”) to get the appearance of a typical 32” length pant

Which Carhartts (from Amazon) would fit me best at 6'2" 170 lbs? Looking for a nice low rise, long, baggy fit.
Looking at these in 33x36 and 34x36
Carhartt Men's Loose Fit Canvas Utility Work Pant https://a.co/d/0s9qBEs
Carhartt Men's Relaxed Fit Washed Twill Dungaree Pant https://a.co/d/5wbeAGN
Probably go with the loose fit, although carhartts fit long so you can usually size down in length especially since you want a lower rise. 33x34 should get you right, if you want baggier just size up the waist
Thanks for the reply. I tried them in 34x36 and the waist sat super high up, like almost to my belly button. Like you said, they were super long too. Looking to reorder at 36x34

I just got some stussy beach pants and I love them! Anyone have any issues w them I should be worried about?

i've got a pair of these i found in an urban outfitters on sale that ended up being $12 after whatever promo they were running. they are a dark denim wash tho:
(https://cdna.lystit.com/photos/cultizm/1b9798ee/gramicci-Blue-Denim-Loose-Tapered-Pants-One-Wash.jpeg))
they stretch great and are a pretty lightweight denim
since they're real short though i don't really skate in them, they're just chillers but they are very sick. if they were longer they would be pretty perfect.

grammicis rule.. but the quality seems to have gone downhill imo
I have a pair I got in japan years ago that feel way more durable and are slightly more thick than the ones I bought online in the US a year or two ago.
@Made In China a few pages back at this point but good lookin out on those uniqlo corduroys. they're available today so I ordered a pair along with their relaxed fit selvedge. curious as to how the selvedge will fit... I ordered two pairs, one 33 and one 34. usually a 32, gonna try both and return whichever one I don't like
-
Just ordered a pair of the Uniqlo wide fit jeans. I had some of the regular fits and really liked how they felt, but the fit is a bit too slim for my liking. Hoping the wide fits are good. Anyone have them?

Hell yeah, lemme know how you like them cause I'm interested and might cop a pair too!
And did you get these selvedge jeans: https://www.uniqlo.com/us/en/products/E452532-000/00?colorDisplayCode=69&sizeDisplayCode=030 ? I had a pair of non-selvedge jeans in this fit from a few years ago and they're nice. More of a straight loose fit than baggy with a nice high waist. They fit me like how Spanky's jeans fit him.
-
@Made In China will do! yep, those ones. I've been wanting a pair of selvedge jeans for a bit now but have held off because of the price so can't beat these for the money hah

How’s the fit of the waist on the Gramiccis? I’m normally a 33, so between a M and L. Do you have any advice on whether to size up or down?
-

I've had a pair for about a year without problems. I like them a lot more than my Polar surfs. Polars definitely have thinner fabric that's more prone to fading/discoloration (and wrinkling).

They are a perfect fit imo. Right amount of looseness and taper. With the tall versions out now too they are even better. Quality is really good considering the price and they are super comfy

Sizing is on the larger side in my experience. I’m about a 32 and an M is pretty long/big on me but baggy. I think L would be way too big

Agreed….these jeans are what this thread was made for…..loose…but not baggy….a bit of a taper…good price.. comes in black too….

I can't speak for the quality these days, but I worked retail at an Uniqlo store a few years ago and the selvedge jeans then were such good quality for the price. Very stiff raw denim that broke in and became nice and soft with a little bit of wear. I think they started using stretch denim in the later versions that wasn't as nice, but these ones are 100% cotton so I bet they're gonna be like the ones I'm talking about.

I recently bought a pair of selvedge denim jeans from them and the quality is still good for the price. Definitely stiff raw denim still. The upcoming regular fit ones seem like they’re I’ll be nice. Just bummed they only go up to a 35 waist

Does anybody know what pants Sean Malto wears? I realized I don't follow him on Instagram, and decided to click on his page, and I couldn't help but notice he wasn't wearing Janoskis anymore, and that his pants fit how I'd like mine to.

I gotta say, these skate elastic waist pants (Loosies, Surf) don't go all the way up to their highest advertised waist size from my experience. They technically fit, but the elastic band is so tight it hurts. And that's before any potential washing shrinkage.
If you're in between two sizes on elastic pants, I say size up.
-
Scooped the Carhartt x Quarter Snacks pants, the Uniqlo U cords in 2 colors and the Volcom Louie cords this week. All for really nice. I’ll post some fit pics this week as I roll em into the wardrobe this week.
I sized up on the Carhartt so those are more baggy than loose. But still feeling them.

Could you post fit pics of the Uniqlo U cords when you get them? I'm sooooo tempted but lord knows I don’t need another pair of pants…. But for the right fit….

There’s something about elastic pants that make me think about….what are those things toddlers wear? Between pampers and underwear? Pull ups? I’m a big boy now! Same goes for pants that come in : S,M,L. I’m a skater… not a child….

I would have agreed with you a month ago... but I've been converted. They're so lightweight and move with you so well. Honestly, any skater who normally dislikes skating in long pants should grab a pair on sale (WKND Loosies, Theories Lounge, Polar Surf, etc.) just to try it out. Almost feels like skating in some light shorts.

Those Magenta climbing pants are not as big as they seem. All those dude must be like 5’6” and wearing the XL size ones. I bought some, and they’re basically straight fit on me.

Anybody try Vans Ave denim? I bought some at the outlets and I’m really digging them.

This is my problem with any elastic waist pants. I don’t know if it’s my hips but they’re nothing I can wear in public.

Yeah, their sizing charts are pretty BS with the highest measurements... luckily erring on the side of sizing up has been working so far. Went against my better judgement with this most recent order.

haven't had a pair of brown cords in like 10 years so what's the deal with some cords these days, pantaloon doods? Was looking at the Polar 93s but they seem just a little bit too baggy, as in baggier than 90s LL Bean cords. Not really trying to spend that polar $$ either...

:'(Uniqlo wide fit tapered waist size 32
w 33
Thigh 13.6
Leg opening 8
Front rise 12, 13 with crotch gusset
Outseam 43.75
Inseam 32
They fit basically like the Huf Cromer or 93 denim at half the cost. I laid them over my 32 '93 Denim and it's the same thing with a higher rise and slightly longer inseam. I can wear them more on my waist and don't get that annoying knee binding. For $30 they're a bargain and no embroidery or getting disappointed when vintage Silvertabs don't fit as you hoped.

This is real nitpicky of me but I really don't like the big logo on the back of the elastic CSS pants. Those are probably more comfy but I might just size up on the button pants and rock a belt, depending on feedback.

Button ones. I can’t do elastic pants other than sweatpants to lounge around the house in. There’s a teeny-tiny little white CCS logo on the back right pocket but also any of those big emblems are a cinch to remove with a $2 seam ripper.

Thanks, havent browsed this thread much obv lol. I'm not a SUPER baggy guy, but these look legit. might have to try a pair.
Got the gramicci's in yesterday. exactly the fit i was looking for, thanks @Sanka Coffie . I havent skated in them yet, but they feel fucking wonderful. very excited to try them out.

so i snagged a pair of the Uniqlo U loose fit cords, and the fit is amazing. pretty similar fit as far as the cut to my polar 93's (both size 32), but the waist fits a little more true to size (polar 93 32's i need a belt, these i do not). the only thing i'm bummed on is i wish i coulda grabbed another color (brown or the olive green), anyone know how often they restock these things? is it only once a season??

They only drop stuff for one season at a time and typically only sporadically restock stuff after that. It seems like this seasons drop was really limited and a lot of stuff sold out right away :(
-
But they usually drop something similar the next season ie. loose fit work cords or something….

Thanks, havent browsed this thread much obv lol. I'm not a SUPER baggy guy, but these look legit. might have to try a pair.
Got the gramicci's in yesterday. exactly the fit i was looking for, thanks @Sanka Coffie . I havent skated in them yet, but they feel fucking wonderful. very excited to try them out.
Damn I might have to pull the trigger and get some. Which of the gramicci’s did you get??

this is kinda off topic, but i noticed the models on the german uniqlo page sometimes wear lrabs. this pant looks pretty cool, too.

Last Resort has quickly become popular with wardrobe stylists and props dept because they are very “ND” (non-descript). No big logos, clean skate kinda Chuck T look. This is the stuff these people look for

Used made in USA gramicci are superior to the newer ones and can be had pretty cheap. I've got two pairs of the standard belted ones for $30 total. Fleabag, etsy, etc

Came here to say the Wide Leg jeans are being offered all sizes, for 30 bucks in stock currently for the tall sizing.
Even if youre a short king like myself , i used the free alteration option to get them hemmed to 25.5 and the leg opening is a perfect 9”~ which is just how my 93s fit! Very hyped.

Just ordered a pair of the Uniqlo wide fit jeans. I had some of the regular fits and really liked how they felt, but the fit is a bit too slim for my liking. Hoping the wide fits are good. Anyone have them?
They are a perfect fit imo. Right amount of looseness and taper. With the tall versions out now too they are even better. Quality is really good considering the price and they are super comfy
Agreed….these jeans are what this thread was made for…..loose…but not baggy….a bit of a taper…good price.. comes in black too….
Bumping this post cuz they came in today and I really like them. Your description is spot on. Really wanted a loose pair of jeans that weren’t restrictive without looking like I’m swimming in denim.

Anybody have recommendations for a loose 5-pocket jean? Have big legs and I'm over the carpenter style. Thanks!

These are the denim I posted measurements of on the last page and I am really liking them so far. Soft, well made, look more classic than trendy.
Question- did ya'll go true to size on waist or 1 size up. I'm 6 foot 3 and have a 30in waste but I have birthing hips so pants are fucking weird to fit. In Levi's and Carhartt I go a size up to 33, which I did with these since the rise is higher. But now that they're broken in I am thinking maybe I shoulda done a 32.
-
I got mine a size up. Have to rock a belt, but I don't regret it.
Only thing is, they sit kinda low on my waist so I almost wish I went even shorter on the inseam. It's not that bad, but if I end up getting more I might go an extra half inch or something.
-
Yah I wasn't sure what the inseam even was and I got the "Tall" version and it was a 32 for a 33 waist. I think I will eventually get them hemmed, but a single cuff ain't bad. I belt em at waist level and they do not restrict my knees, which I started hating about Polar stuff. I already look goofy enough while skating I don't need to add the pre-trick pants tug to my theatrics.

550 big and tall or Uniqlo Wide fit Jean comes in a tall….

quick question: Do the theories plaza jeans and theories stamp lounge pant fit similar in any way?
The plaza denim in L/ 34 might be the best fitting pant i ever got!
Also while on the topic, does anybody know who in europe is stocking Theories? I need to find the black plaza denim too.
My local has them but it's very hard to find them elsewhere if these guys tun outta sizes!

I like levis 560s a lot they’re a bit baggier in the crotch and thighs than 550s so less of a need to size up but still have a nice taper.

Someone in here asked me to post the Uniqlo U wide work cords. Finally snapped a photo in them today.
Full disclosure I sized up one, I was in the store rushing and just held them up instead of trying on. These are a 33, a 32 would have been fine as well.

Lol speaking of which, Uniqlo doesn't do regular restocks on their U line. This season's drop seemed to be a lot more limited than their previous seasons too. Honestly the best way to catch a restock is to check their website each morning.
-
This is apropos of almost nothing but if you’re ordering from Uniqlo, I recommend checking out their AIRism underwear. It’s absolutely the best underwear I have found to skate in - so much better than the days of swampass cotton Hanes of my youth.

It’s expensive but the bombas underwear are also great. Very breathable and the right length so I don’t get chafing nearly as much

Stay Loose are too soft/crap quality for skateboarding

Uniqlo Wide Fit Tall denim are on sale for $20. Uniqlo will also tailor them for you, so they end up the same as standard fit. Can't beat that price.

Stussy beach pants are pretty quality and thick

Fuck, I don't have them side by side right now because I'm returning the Surf for a larger size. Can't give you a direct comparison. Will be able to when I get the larger pair sent back to me.
Lounge are really nice skate pants. Pretty thin and don't get too hot, but still will keep your legs warm when needed. Feels perfect for Autumn skating. Has a nice baggy fit to them that I enjoy skating in.
Surf were pretty close in thickness if I recall? Pretty thin. Mayyybe thinner than lounge, but I honestly can't remember.
Either way, I would only buy them on a major sale, their standard price is insane... if you're deciding between the two and the Lounge are cheaper, just go with the Lounge to see if you like those types of pants.

Bought those Uniqlo U wide cords based on this threads. Very happy with them but def gonna get them hemmed. Thanks for the tips!

I go to Goodwill and buy most of the clothes I usually wear anyways so I can find big pants or seriously just about anything. I've came up on some expensive shoes there too.

I have a pair of the 44 cords and they fit a little big at the waist, but nothing too crazy. Most pants these days are vanity sized and slightly bigger at the waist. I'd recommend getting your normal size unless you want them even bagger.
-
Anyone got fit pics of Ben's "gorilla cut" pants? Mad curious cause they look huuuge. I want to buy some and use them as a pattern to make ski pants. Same deal, just not twill. But if they take filson wax well(which I doubt) I could just wax some.

I bought some green 44! and they fit much bigger than my 93’s. The waist on the 44! Is a tad bigger and they seemed about 2 inches longer (both 32x32). I also wear 33/34 waist in most other brands, so they definitely fit bigger overall

@badmanganjaspliff
Alright I've got them side by side.
I would say that that the Surf are thinner (but not necessarily in a good way?) and the Lounge are thicker. Feels like the Surf wont last as long as the Theories Lounge.
Lounge also look better IMO, and feel a bit better in how they fit.
They are very similar in a lot of ways but here is how I would say they differ.
Lounge:
+ Price
+ Slightly thicker and more durable?
+ Better shape (looks better and feels/moves with you well
+ Belt Loop and front button
+ Perfect for cold Fall weather
- Too warm for even moderately warm weather
- Vertical side pocket
Surf:
+ Better for warmer weather
+ Lighter
+ Thin
- Thin
- Weird shape in terms of where its baggy on the leg (sort of balloons out)
- No Belt Loop (but has a loop for your keys which is half a +)
- Vertical side pocket
- Price
I wouldn't buy either of these at full price personally, but I would definitely say the Lounge are a way better value. I'm not an expert on pants, but the Lounge feel at least the same, maybe better quality; and are cheaper. If they were the same price I would choose the Lounge over the Surf pants personally.
I haven't had any other pants from either brands, but this side-by-side is making me feel like you're paying for the brand with the Polar Surf pants? Again, I don't know a ton about pants though.
I definitely recommend the WKND Loosies Ripstop if you like this type of pants. They're a bit more lightweight like the Surf pants, but feel better and seem more durable. Loosies for warmer weather, Lounge for medium/cool weather, and I would probably wear something else during winter (or put some long underwear under the Lounge).
I haven't gotten to skate in the Surf pants yet, so maybe I will have a more glowing review of them once I do... but I am concerned about durability before I even skate them.
Let me know if anyone has a question about these two.

Thank you my friend you are a legend for that. Great information I think I’m leaning toward the lounge pants for sure, especially good 2 know about the fit. Think I’ll keep an eye on the sales and try and scoop up a brown pair

Yeah, definitely.
I've seen people make the Surf pants work and look good on them by hedging towards sizing down... but for me the elastic waistband was really uncomfortably tight, so that wasn't an option. So with sizing up, its got that puffiness to it that I'm not digging. "Dorky" is the word that come to mind in terms of the shape, but I know that is sort of Polar's "style" for a lot of things. Maybe after washing it and wearing it a few times they will settle down and the shape will improve.
The Lounge pants just feel like they are loose in the right places for skateboarding, and look nice to me. I don't know enough about pants to describe why that is.
Yeah, I think the brown ones look really nice. I'm mad I missed out on the ones with contrast stitching.

In terms of sales, I got mine directly from https://www.theoriesofatlantis.com/collections/lounge-pants when they had a sale, so maybe check out their site around Black Friday? They actually threw in a free beanie which was unexpected. Picked up a ton of skate mags too... they carry a ton, even ones that are hard to get in the US... not sure if I've seen another online store that has such a good variety of mags.
I think I recall seeing them on sale somewhere else too at some point, but can't remember.
If you circle back around for the Surf pants eventually, MLTD had a pretty crazy sale that put them at a reasonable price Even then, can't fully recommend them until I skate them a bit as well as see how long they last.

So i got some pairs of baggy jeans that i not really feel anymore and need some styling advice. I mean they feel nice to skate in but im a little over the super baggy look on myself. 2 pairs of big boy style jeans and a poetic painter pant thats a straight cult.
How do you guys style them to look a little big and more casual?
Also I got a pair of lighter Green corderouys that i bought because they were 25€ and carhartt, figured i could skate in them but idk what colors to match them with? The combination of corderouys and that green color is just so extra

Baggy jeans with a fitted tee shirt is a good go to casual fit without looking too much like all the skatepark groms in their 90s cosplay fits. And my fitted, I mean wearing a shirt in your correct size. You don't need to go slim fit.
And my go to for louder colored pants is either white or black on top. You can't really go wrong with black and green or white and green as color combos. Bonus points if you contrast it with the opposite color shoes, like what @notinternetfamous was suggesting.

Was thinking of starting a new thread but I think loose pants can be extended to loose fit sweatpants.
Who’s got a nice pair to recommend?
Heavy and baggy for winter?
Looking at Champion or Nike, but I noticed that Dickies and Carhartt WIP also have sweatpants.
Anyone have a great pair a sweatpants with deep pockets that don’t pill?
This company looks pretty good but I am not familiar.

I’d be interested also. I have some Volcom sweatpants which aren’t the best quality but the fit is so nice. They look awesome and feel really good too. Most normal sweatpants are aren’t baggy enough and are kinda short also and have a waist that’s too loose. The Volcom ones I have are perfect other than the material seems a bit thin and is pilling also. They’re from quite a few years back and not available anymore.
-
I got a pair of grand trading ones that I’m really happy with, thick and fit baggy enough but I find you don’t want them too heavy and baggy because then they fall down. You get them too tapered and think..they’re yoga pants There’s a happy medium for sure. I had a pair of the first reigning champ samples $5 at a sample sale, lasted 15 years. They don’t really make stuff as thick anymore I don’t think though. You prolly know this but something to be conscious of is the weight ie. the heavy duty JSP ones are 24 oz..

LA Apparel is the reincarnation of American Apparel I'm pretty sure, Dov Charney trying t get back into the schmatta business.
I will say I bought some Palace sweats from one of their last sales and they're extremely nice. Super thick, nice material, holding up well so far. Too warm to skate in sometimes. I ordered TTS so they aren't extremely baggy

thanks man, yea the plain tee and baggy pants is nice. But with winter coming up ive had trouble finding tops that doesnt look to big with the pants. Maybe its just in my head, i get self consious at times thinking i look just like the kids at the park.

Agreed. I usually pair baggy pants (which aren't that baggy) with a clean and well fitting collared or t-shirt.

For everyone living in a cold climate, I've got a recommendation.
I got these on a solid sale a while ago (wouldn't recommend them at full price, but keep an eye out for Black Friday sales):
https://www.activerideshop.com/collections/all/products/active-cargo-pant-military-green
They are lightweight, yet warm. They will probably be my goto winter skate pants. They're too warm to skate in rest of the year though, imo.
I bet if I combined these with long underwear, it would make winter sessions not so bad.
-
I figured I’d try my chances of asking this here.
I’m having a hell of a time trying to find decent baggy cargo joggers anywhere online. It’s the cold season up here, and I need something warmer for night skating.
If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be hugely appreciated.

I’m having a hell of a time trying to find decent baggy cargo joggers anywhere online. It’s the cold season up here, and I need something warmer for night skating.
If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be hugely appreciated.
Pointing you in the right direction would be saying to you dont wear cargo joggers
This is probably sound advice but in my search for sweatpants I saw these…

I don’t believe joggers are meant to be baggy.

I won’t defer to you unless you post a fit in the “post your fit” thread.
It’s mostly for nostalgia/comfort purposes for my nightly solo sessions post work. It’s not for fashion purposes, or skating with the homies.

I’m ok bringin jargos into this conversation and believe there is a place for them….but like the thread says…they should be loose.

I’m not asking for critiques for what I’m wearing skating solo winter night sessions, just trying to see if someone can help a dude out.

I like your logic that I have to post a "fit" to comment about types of pants in the loose pants thread
Its good.
Anyway I was only Kidding around. Your pants are none of my business ;)

Nothing wrong with cargo joggers most pants look goofy outside of wooden toy play dates anyway

I just didn’t like having to explain why I was asking for what I was specifically asking. I don’t even like the idea of wearing joggers out, but I’m prioritizing warmth for winter nights.
There’s a well lit overhang just down the road that is my practice spot.

A jargo would work much better with long underwear than a pair of dickies for those cold winter nights….
Until Polar drops poggers you’re just gonna have to figure it out on your own…..

I don't know anything about joggers tbh, but my pro tip is to Google whatever you're looking for plus "ripstop" and also check out the "Shopping" tab on Google
I've never heard of this brand and don't know their reputation but are any of these what you are looking for? Looks like they're having a sale?: https://www.brooklyncloth.com/collections/ripstop-joggers
Other search terms that might be helpful for pants that are both mobile enough and durable enough for Skateboarding might be "hiking" "climbing" "work" "outdoor" or "military" "combat" "tactical".
Post whatever you end up getting.
Here are some random links I found... I don't know shit about brands so other people will have to say how bad any of these are or any of these websites/stores are. Just random links I found that might be relevant:

Thanks for the links guys! Maybe I should be searching for straight up sweats?
Anyways, I just picked up some of the Dime baggy jeans in the Winter 2022 drop. They look like they’re gonna be a little more substantial than the DJCO jeans from the previous release.

Don't give up on your cargo jogger dreams. Sounds like a solid skate pant to me personally.
Maybe also look into tactical/BDUs... Might be able to get what you're looking for by synching the openings a certain way via the built in adjustable openings.

joggers are the antithesis to loose fit pants

I assume they mean like ninja pants or something where its looser on top, and tight at the ankles. Some of the ones I linked almost fit the bill?

Current day joggers are definitely slimmed down but that’s the point of the thread we are seeking to find looser versions….and in this case with cargo pockets….like some wu welsh type shit…

Exactly!
I honestly think I’m just thinking baggy cargo sweats. I used to rock them all the time in my early skate days circa 2001.

Theories of Atlantis... https://www.theoriesofatlantis.com/collections/all-pants
Theories (and related brands) THANKYOU30 for 30% off (you might have to already be an email subscriber).
I saw some $45/50 Gramicci pants on cheap and steep (lolwut?) and backcountry.
Let us know if you guys find any good finds.

Just got the dime baggy fit jeans in washed black. First impression, I love them. The denim itself feels nice, a tad thinner than the black silver tabs I have. They’re definitely baggy but are tapered enough so they don’t feel like too much. I wear a 34 waist normally and the large’s fit as expected. I’m a 28-29 inch inseam, and these are a bit long, so I’d guess these are 30-32 inches.
-
i dunno who needs to hear this but
uniqlo wide fit jeans fit like (semi slim) straight pants just with the high waist of actual wide fit pants like big boys/enjoi fader denim
i highly recommend them, i was very surprised
you might have to cut the legs tho, the leg sizing is a mess, but its no problem
such a good fit that im not even gonna skate in them

This is why I can't wear any skate brand pants. No inseam options.
If I don't get at least a 34" inseam my pants highwater like crazy, and I strongly dislike highwater pants.
To get any skate brand pants long enough I have to buy them in like a 38" waist (I'm a 32")

Yeah that must be frustrating. I think I saw Polar Surf had some "tall" sizes, but I honestly am not sure if I've seen them stocked anywhere besides their own site?

Yeah i bought a pair of WKND loosies and they're great except the inseam is 29". It's definitely a "look" and they're so nice to skate in I just dont worry about it, I run them. But they're strictly for skating, can't walk around town with my pants stopping above my shoe.

Anybody Levi's 521?

Just picked up a pair of these Calvin Klein jeans and they could be the perfect fit. https://www.calvinklein.fr/jean-90s-loose-j30j3216821by
I used to wear big boys but don’t really want to look like a 15yo that has a shit in my pants anymore. The Calvin’s are baggy in the leg but no drop crotch. I’m 6”1 normally a 30 but got a 29 so maybe size down or just belt them tighter to get a wider leg. The denim in the faded black and the blue is really good too. It’s one of those purchases where I am genuinely super super happy with.

Back to sweatpants…
Went to Macy’s today and tried on Champion, Adidas and North Face sweatpants.
Walked away with the North Face.
All were the same thickness but the North Face were the baggiest, with the best fit and (most importantly) the deepest pockets.
I got an XL and they are slightly baggy. If you go up a size they will be very baggy.

A rundown on some Black Friday pants and their skateability... Thanks for all of your advice in this thread, helped me figure out sizing.
Levis 541 Athletic Taper (Stretch) - They're essentially relaxed fit pants at the upper thigh and above (maybe a bit of a dropped crotch?), and a tighter tapered fit at the lower thigh and below. Definitely not a relaxed fit pant at the knee like I was hoping for.
They don't resist movement or twisting, which makes them really solid for skateboarding. However, They are slightly tight at the knees (but it doesn't affect movement when sized up in length). Err on the side of sizing UP the inseam, as that seemed to help the knee tightness and pant mobility more than sizing up the waist. There was some mobility issues with ones that are true to size length, even when sizing up waist, but again more length solved both issues. The potential extra length isn't as huge of an issue due to the taper, especially while wearing shoes. Feels like a slim/tapered fit at the lower thigh and below, but with a comfy upper thigh/butt/crotch area.
The 541 is not most comfortable fit overall since it IS going for that tapered look down low (unless you like the feeling of tighter pants, of course), but its only really uncomfortable when sitting. They look pretty cool to me, way better looking than straight pants but are more comfortable than purely slim jeans. Less unruly than relaxed pants due to the openings staying above your shoe. If that all sounds appealing to you, they skate and move very very well.
A cautious recommendation on the 541 fit (a bit tighter than I imagined), but a really solid recommendation on the cotton/tencel-lyocell/elastaine stretch material. Definitely look into getting that material mix on whatever looser fit you prefer but I don't think this mix is offered in many looser fits sadly.
Levis XX Chino EZ Waist Standard Taper (Stretch) - These things are really soft and comfortable and almost loungey. Feel pretty high quality, but I'm not sure the material will stand up to a ton of skateboarding (not ripstop weave or anything). They are like a thicker Polar Surf (except they actually have a belt loop). The fit is a bit less dorky too, they look nice.
They don't get in the way of movement. Great to skate in. The EZ waist is really comfortable, not just a more generic elastic waist like some other pants.
Almost feels like a lazy around the house pant, but looks good enough for slightly formal wear. Doesn't look like an elastic waist pant in that regard. A slightly relaxed fit with only a slightly tapered end, which I really like for skating. Not tight at all, like the aforementioned pant.
Really solid recommendation overall. Worth checking out if you want a comfy loungey pant that moves with you and skates well. I wish they made it in a more rugged ripstop weave, because that is basically its only downside I can think of.
Carhartt Rugged Flex Relaxed Fit Canvas 5-Pocket Work Pant - These are really solid. Don't move quite as good as the two above pants, but feel very durable as a trade-off. Walk a comfortable line between work pant and casual pant, they sit on your waist rather than above like other Dickies/Carhartt pants. They look nice, and not dorky like a work pant, despite having the durability of a work pant. Move better than the standard 100% cotton Carhartts, and also are slightly lighter weight as a bonus.
I took the advice on here of sizing down the length, and it was a great call. It seems like their pants are all sized to fit over work boots, so keep that in mind. I saw a lot of complaints online about this specific pant (5-pocket flex) being tighter than other Carhartt fits/materials, and that also seems true. I sized up the waist and it fits great.
I like the fit on these more than the Levi's Athletic Taper. I also wouldn't consider these loose fit, but a nice relaxed middleground that feels a bit straight fit in the lower part.
Solid recommendation on these if you want a medium fit, durable pant, that moves alright enough. I'm a bit confused why people choose to skate in the standard 100% cotton ones rather than these or similarly "rugged flex" pants.
Carhartt Loose Fit Canvas Utility Work Pant - A looser lighter fit. They don't flex because they don't need to with their fit and lightweight material. Lighter than the above pants.
However, can be slightly restrictive when lifting knee high though, and I don't think sizing would fix it. This is the best pant I've tried in terms of adding some durability to a lightweight pant. WKND Loosies are lighter weight and move better than these, but these feel more durable as a trade-off.
Definitely size down the length like the above Carhartt pants. However, you can go true size on the waist. I don't think you will really need any extra bagginess. Truly a loose fit pant, but the openings dangling around your ankle aren't a big deal because of how light weight the material is.
Solid recommendation on these if you want something light, loose, but durable.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Treated myself to some Pop Trading DRS jeans. Denim is nice quality and the fit is roomy. Sit decent too. Pricey, but recommended.
-
Picked up some relaxed fit Carhartts at Ross on sale for $20. Pretty nice fit, I went a size up. They had a bunch of Carhartts, so did Burlington if those are in anyone’s area it might be worth checking out.

I’ve been skating in these a lot over the past year. I have 2 pairs and have beaten the shit out of them and have yet to get a hole. Might be luck or maybe they are the GOAT joggers

What you want are Levi's 550 or 569

i've been skating in nothing but levi 560's i get off ebay, super baggy and tapered at the bottom. they usually only cost like $25 since they've been discontinued. watch out for the black ones tho because they're made different and aren't as baggy as the light blue ones

Yeah those sound great for skating, and what I've been looking for. Why the hell did they discontinue them? I think I'll do the same next time I need pants.
Hmm I wonder why the black are less baggy... Stretch material that got washed by the previous owner too hot maybe? Seems like black typically means stretch material with Levi's?
What you want are Levi's 550 or 569
I used to wear nothing but 550 and I'm just so over them. I would maybe wear them again in a black stretch, but they didn't have any available.
I think 569 might not be for me. Not a fan of straight leg and those openings are even bigger than 550.
Thanks for looking out.

I got a pair of black 560s off Depop awhile ago and when they arrived they fit like Jerry Seinfeld's pants. I was about to send them back until I realized that they (poorly) sewed them to be tighter and I was able to get them back to their original fit.
But even so, my blue ones are still slightly baggier.

Levi's has pretty bad QC now. I've got a few pair of sale 550's and they're slightly tapered to straight leg it doesn't make sense. I go 1-2 waste sizes up usually.
What I've recommended before is wait for a sale and get the big and tall with like a 36 and have a tailor hem and taper them. My tailor charged $10 for each and right now a 550 is $34
Also I was already feeling self conscious about wearing Tiagos, but those Seinfeld images hammer home my lack of style. I kinda feel Reynolds has some baggier Seinfeld fits.

Levi's has pretty bad QC now. I've got a few pair of sale 550's and they're slightly tapered to straight leg it doesn't make sense. I go 1-2 waste sizes up usually.
What happened to Levi's is depressing. You can choose between regular Levi's with paper thin material, stretch Levi's which are like wearing your own personal, plastic sauna, or Levi Strauss Signature, which are now basically the same quality as the "good ones". I'm sure that there's a trick to finding the good ones, like you must buy their selvedge models or something, but that's too much work. Of course, the good news is that there are enough used pairs of Levi's floating around that the world could probably stop producing pants for a few decades before we'd run out of them. Still though, a tragedy for one of the great American clothing makers.
I recently picked up some Lee Jeans from my neighborhood thrift store. I don't know their model names or numbers, and I don't know where to find them, but they are the perfect not-too-baggy baggy pants for me. Generous through the hip, good height in the crotch, and definitely loose enough to skate in without being baggy like a pair of Big Boys or even the two pairs of baggy CCS pants I have. Also the denim and construction appear to be of a pretty high quality.
-
I tend to thrift my Levi's, and even among the oldest most worn pairs they almost always last longer than any new pairs I buy.
-
I know the ones they carry in most stores (Kohl's, Walmart, etc.) are apparently lower quality on purpose. I've heard other brands do that too. I don't know exact details. Specifically the "signature" ones are advertised as an economy line on their site, but I think it goes beyond that.
However their site has a handful of pants specifically labeled "premium" that I think are their highER quality line?: https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/premium/c/levi_clothing_premium_us/facets/feature-size_group/men%27s/productitemtype/jeans/productitemtype/pants
The ones I grabbed were Premium (crazy holiday sale so was basically same price anyways) and the stretch material on my pair had lyocel to make them more breathable. Obviously it's winter so I can't truly test them, but they seem cool temp compared to other pants I own.
I don't know anything beyond that, but maybe keep an eye out for premium?

But this is the true advice. I just needed some new pants since I haven't gotten any in forever.

I have no doubt that Levi's still produces a high quality pair of jeans, but the fact that you must go searching for it, and that they sell a lower quality version of their "regular" jeans (not the cheap Signature stuff) which appears to be otherwise identical to the good stuff, means that I have absolutely no interest in purchasing from them. Also, among those "Premium" jeans, there are 17 pairs of polyester stretch pants and 7 pairs of actual denim jeans. I know some people like the stretch stuff, but I am bothered by the fact that it will all live in a landfill forever and I typically hate the way the material feels.

I understand the attachment to Levi’s and I hope too but…..it’s worse than dickies, a brand that we want to like, but the product always falls short….

i've been skating in nothing but levi 560's i get off ebay, super baggy and tapered at the bottom. they usually only cost like $25 since they've been discontinued. watch out for the black ones tho because they're made different and aren't as baggy as the light blue ones
Yeah those sound great for skating, and what I've been looking for. Why the hell did they discontinue them? I think I'll do the same next time I need pants.
Hmm I wonder why the black are less baggy... Stretch material that got washed by the previous owner too hot maybe? Seems like black typically means stretch material with Levi's?

What you want are Levi's 550 or 569
I used to wear nothing but 550 and I'm just so over them. I would maybe wear them again in a black stretch, but they didn't have any available.
I think 569 might not be for me. Not a fan of straight leg and those openings are even bigger than 550.
Thanks for looking out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zk3vwdmLUa4&t=288s
yeah this video is what sealed the deal for me. skip to 3:45
also, make sure they have the comfort fit label on them, i bought two pairs with the comfort fit label and one pair that didn't have the lable (balack ones made in the usa) and the two with the label (made in central america) are way baggier.

A Levi's employee told me once that anything you get from an online or big box retailer is a lesser quality so the shit online is the same as you'd get at Kohl's. According to them, the best Levi's stuff is sold in the physical flagship stores and by upper tier department stores like Nordstroms. Which, if you like the looser fits, does fuck all for you because they only carry slimmer fits in store.

So yeah, then my theory is correct. They have a "Signature" line, which is supposed to be their budget Walmart stuff, but they also make a regular line of Levi's which are intended to appear identical to the good stuff but which suck. Great reason to never shop from them.

Hmm even from their own site? Because when shopping, the checkout had an option of picking it up at a local flagship store.
I believe you, it's just wild.
Agreed. I hadn't bought from them in forever, but the sale was nuts so I figured it's worth it. Honestly happy with the Chinos (love the EZ waist), and happy enough with the other pair. Hopefully they both last.
Definitely thrifting some 560 comforts next time I need pants. Thanks for the info guys!

My 560s say "comfort fit" and they're not nearly as baggy as this. They're TTS if that's any indication.

***Cross posted on the Polar fit thread as well***
Pondering pulling the trigger on a pair of '93 Cords, Rust colored. Either size 28x30 or 30x30. (Not sure if it's the most recent drop since they're on sale.). The sale ends in about an hour.
The shop staff I spoke with said the 28's measured 14.7 inches (29.52" total) laid flat, but the Polar sizing guide says they're 15.7" (31.5" total). They said the 30's measured 15.9 inches (31.8" total) laid flat, but the Polar sizing guide says they're 16.7" (31.9" total). The staff member said they actually remeasured the pants when I asked, but who knows, they might have been lazy and just quoted their website. In any case, I'm not really looking for the extra looseness.
I tried searching this thread but couldn't come up with any relevant results - I suck at using the search function.
So, what's the consensus on sizing with the '93's? Are they still super vanity-sized or are they true to size? Do the cords have the same sizing as the denim or is that throwing in another variable?
Fingers crossed a Pal can help out.
***edit: hell yeah, I can't do math. 16.7 x 2 = 33.4***

LOL. I was actually speaking to the shop owner. So, it's their bread and butter, so to speak.
As the old adage says "measure twice, cut once." In this case, "measure twice, buy once."
Held off on buying them, hopefully can get insight from the Forum.

has anyone tried the Supreme "baggy jeans"? they did a brown pair that looks really nice, but i have nothing to reference in regards to how they actually fit

Yeah, I would if I weren't ordering them online.
Being in Japan, so if they stock them at all shops sell out quite quickly locally in the sizes I'm considering (28/30/XS/S) so "trying them on" isn't really an option.
***Edit: Also, when ordering online many shops here have a policy of "no return unless the product is damaged or defective" (i.e. no size exchange or ordering more than one pair to try on and send one back).***

My 93 cords definitely fit big in the waist. They have the exact measurements on their site, so you should just measure pants you already have to draw a comparison.

just givin my 2 cents:
i have the polar 93 jeans in 34 and 36 waist and one 93 cord in 36 waist- the cords definetly run bigger, like i would guess full size but was too lazy to measure yet! cords feel cooler to me....just the way the fabric flows and all dat.

93s fit different pretty much every drop. i have a pair of the light blues in 34/34, they're like 36 in the waist, true 34 length, tried on brown 34/32s, they fit like a 33 in the waist and 30s in length, the 93 cargos are overall much smaller and 34/34 fits kinda like a 32/32. if i didn't like to sag my pants my true size would be 32 waist and the 34/34 cargos i would be able to wear without a belt and they would fit me perfect, but they were not baggy by any means, relaxed straight leg would be a better description. i work at a skateshop and we have some 93s left in stock so i can take some photos comparing how they fit. also they don't make 93s in poland only like they used to, they also make them in portugal now and some colorways are made in both factories for the same drop and they fit different too.

I said fuck it and bought three pairs of polars when mtld was having a crazy sale on them a couple months ago. Got a pair of 93s, 92s, and whatever Grund denim chino pants are.
My 93s got shredded down the side of my pants pocket the first time I fell in them, it wasn’t even as much of a directly hitting a crack coming off a ledge super slow and falling over because I stuck a little awkwardly and couldn’t run it out. They tore like pajama pants. I’m not a clothing expert but I feel like there’s something innately shitty about them, like the stitching is bad because they seem very susceptible to literally shredding. and they’re heavy as shit so worst of both worlds
92s are decently hardy, fit way better (may have just had a really big run of 93s because waist feels much baggier on them), and were lighter
The denim chinos though? Best fucking skate pants I’ve ever owned, I go cheap on my pants but I would easy pay $60 a pop for these if I could get them forever. They’re perfectly baggy on the thigh and not overly tapered, and they’re weirdly durable while being thin and light. I slammed like four times sliding pretty hard on them today and they showed minimal fraying on pockets. The back was the weirdest part, i slid on my ass like twice and there were literally almost no signs of weird and no fraying on the back pockets. I don’t know what kind of denim they make that shit with but it’s amazing. Sleeper hit for me, I got them for like 40 on a whim and don’t regret it at all

Can anyone vouch for the Polar cord surf pants firsthand? The regular surf pants are pretty much a perfect fit for me, but they're too lightweight for winter. The cord ones are back in stock on the Polar site, but shops don't seem to be getting them (at least in Canada). It's like $40 shipping to buy them direct from Polar, so I want to be pretty sure they fit the same and the fabric is a little heavier than the regular ones before I buy them. I wish they'd make those pants in some other heavier materials too, like a heavyweight twill or some kind of ripstop/canvas.

the polar surf cords are chillers only imo. I would not skate them or wear them in the winter without layers underneath. They are a super fine lightweight cord material, not thick at all and I imagine they would shred easily with falls from skating.

The surf cords are like chino thick, not nearly as thick as the Big Boy or 93 cords. Would be solid for spring or fall but no go for winter unless layered.

Can agree with the other responses. Slightly heavier material than standard surf pant but not winter heavy. Super soft and comfortable though.

Those are out of stock, but if you can find a pair at another shop, it’s your best bet. They’re thicker than corduroy Polar Surf Pants and are a bit cheaper. They aren’t made in Europe and the waistband isn’t as stretchy as Surf Pants. If mine weren’t green, I’d wear them more often.

Thanks for the input on the surf cords, everyone!
Full price plus international shipping from the Polar site feels a little steep for what they are based on everyone's descriptions, but I guess I'll just continue keeping an eye out for if/when Canadian shops start getting them in, so I can at least save a little on shipping and maybe snag a little discount somewhere. I thought about those Theories ones too, but wanted to try for the Polar ones first because I know I like how they fit. Might keep those in mind as a backup plan.

theories stamp lounge cords are superior in quality of corduroy for sure. Don’t forget polar was distributed by TOA before the hype, so they come from the same minds/inspiration. I have 2 polar cord surfs and 2 stamp lounge cords. I def find myself grabbing the theories more often, plus like other said they are half the price. The theories stamp lounge cords are super underrated imo.

Scooped the Carhartt x Quarter Snacks pants, the Uniqlo U cords in 2 colors and the Volcom Louie cords this week. All for really nice. I’ll post some fit pics this week as I roll em into the wardrobe this week.
I sized up on the Carhartt so those are more baggy than loose. But still feeling them.
Are you talking about the cedar green Louie tapered cords?
If so, in your opinion, how do they fit in the waist compared to other pants? Are they tight like Dickies 874s? Or are they vanity sized (i.e. bigger than what they are labelled as)?
They're on sale here in Japan so I might cop them.
Thanks in advance.

They are true to size in the waist and don't sit on the hips/waist like 874s at all. Love the fact they come in a size 33. I have a bunch in brown and one pair of the cedar greens. They're pretty much the perfect pant, same goes for the denim. I don't care for Volcom at all, but they nailed it with these pants.
Thanks for the reply @larry leadfoot
I noticed the material is 2% elastane, do they stretch/give a lot?
I don't wear my pants at my "true" waist, I usually wear them sagged/right about at my hip bones so looks like the Goldilock's size that I'd need is already sold out.

They are true to size in the waist and don't sit on the hips/waist like 874s at all. Love the fact they come in a size 33. I have a bunch in brown and one pair of the cedar greens. They're pretty much the perfect pant, same goes for the denim. I don't care for Volcom at all, but they nailed it with these pants.
Thanks for the reply @larry leadfoot
I noticed the material is 2% elastane, do they stretch/give a lot?
I don't wear my pants at my "true" waist, I usually wear them sagged/right about at my hip bones so looks like the Goldilock's size that I'd need is already sold out.
They're not restrictive at all, better give than 874s if that's what you're used to. Very comfy and flexible. The brown ones I have seem a little heavier/thicker, I don't wear them in the summer. The cedar ones feel a touch thinner, but same fit. I still wouldn't wear them in the heat, either.
I would size up with a belt. I'm usually a 32, but wear anything from 32 to 34. I've got these in 33 and 34. I tried them in a 32, but the inseam felt a touch short even though the waist still fits me.
Hope that helps.
Thanks again, that does help out.
I'm returning to the loose/baggy game after being true to fit for about the past 20 years. I usually wear either 874s or 501s (STF), so those are my baselines. However, after measuring all my pants that are labelled as 30" inch in the waist there's quite a bit of variation within models. Hence why I was a bit worried about sizing.
I don't think I'll have any problems with inseam length since my legs are relatively short.
Recently I tried on one pair of Polar 93 cords (28x30) that were actually closer to a 31/32" in the waist. (I wonder if any skate companies are ISO rated ... ) The inseam length was fine - stacked a bit atop my shoes. But, as others have noted, they're a bit spendy. The Louie cords are about 50% off so they're roughly $50.
Thanks again!

Dunno if the Louie pants are somehow different but I’ve had probably 20 pairs of Volcom jeans and pants and all of them except one pair of chinos have been 2” sizes bigger than the labeled size. I’d say that they’re even slightly bigger the the Polar 93s that I bought a few years ago. Unfortunately these days so many brands have “vanity sizing” that it can be difficult to know what your real size actually is. I’m
Pretty sure my real size is 32” even though most of my pants are 30”, some even 29”.

I agree on the Louie's, I had the jeans and usually I buy 32" and I bought a 31", I should have bought a 30". I saw Uniqlo is dropping a wide 'parachute' pant in purple....too soon to get getting tactical?

In between 93s and Big Boys. I actually posted a comparison with Billows and 93s in this thread with pics some 1.5 years back. I like them. The pockets aren’t deep enough though.

I just got the Louie cords (love em) in 28" and I measured the waist. It's about 15" so closer to a 31" waist, which is actually fine for me as they sit on what little hips I have really nice. I'm scrawny af lol.

Billow, Billow Tapered and the skate chino all are great. I’m not a die hard but Volcom is one of those brands that I don’t get why they get shit on when they check all the boxes of supporting skateboarding and good quality product. They definitely do some wack shit but I think every brand does to some extent? Vans, Nike, Dickies especially, Levi’s, etc. all have cool factor but do some kook moves too.

Maybe it’s because they used to be much cooler. Now they’re just a corpo company which is doing cool & kooky stuff and has a cool legacy.
It took me a long time to accept that it’s not the same thing anymore what I was excited about in the 90s. I’m still not over them 100% cuz I like a lot of their stuff and they haven’t fully kooked themselves.

Yeah I don't get it... Like if you wear the billow and have a phone in your pocket and your keys in the other one (don't even bother me telling me to put my keys on the lace belt I don't wear EMERICAs) you can't even sit on a chair. And if you put your wallet in the back pocket you feel like you got a broom up the ass

around where i live there are parks with boarded off areas filled with ice called "rinks"...
volcom billows? not seeing a sweatpant/fleece version of those. the leg width does seem more than adequate though.

A lot of Butter Goods pants go up to size 42, including the Santosuosso jeans, which sound like what you're looking for. The Butter site only has a couple of styles/colours in stock in them right now (if you're in the US), but they make those every season, so I'd just keep an eye out for when they restock.
There's also these ones (https://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=5242460023830&pcid=999&vid=1&searchText=baggy#pdp-page-content) from Gap, which are a similar fit, almost $100 cheaper, and go up to 42 as well.
The Empyre (https://www.zumiez.com/empyre-loose-fit-light-wash-denim-skate-jeans.html) ones from Zumiez go up to 44, and come in a lot of fabric/colour options.

Also worth noting that the vanity sizing on Butter goods is ridiculous, especially the santosuosso. My size 32” fit closer to 36” so a size 36 or 38 should be good if you’re 40” but maybe try em on first if possible

I have 2 pairs of the Frankie Dickies cords, so take my words with a grain of salt in case their regular cords fit differently. Both are 34s, although one is slightly tighter around the waist than the other. Both are a little wider than I would expect a 34 to be though, so I wouldn't size up on those.

That's smart to try both. I ended up just sizing up to see how it goes. I feel like Dickies are never particularly baggy so even if the waist is too big I don't mind just wearing a belt.

Found out that the new Levi’s silvertabs do come in my length so I tried some out at the outlet. I really like the fit of them. It’s a perfect loose fit. Not too baggy but also not a relaxed fit. Denim quality is pretty decent. Only downside is the pockets are not as big as I’d like them but definitely not the worst. I ended up picking up all three colors they had because it was 50% off. Solid recommend for some affordable loose pants

I don't have a fit pic and I sold my pair, but I can assure that they are very baggy compared to Polar 93's. From what I recall, it's a very wide cut and doesn't taper much so they look insane especially if you're a shorter guy

I tried them on a while ago, and can confirm the wide leg. I thought the top half fit similar to '93s, but there's no taper in the legs at all. They're borderline Kim Jong Un pants.

I've got Carhartt Carpenter jeans and canvas slacks and they are cut functionally identical. Both are classic loose fitting skate pants. I actually don't know what WIP offers which these do not, they're great and I wear them all the time. Super cheap, too - I usually buy them used for $15-30 on eBay.

I really liked my 44s for a few months until I realized they're a slightly lesser version of the carhartt wide fit B11s. Carhartts give you legit the exact same fit, but better construction and price

Can confirm, am 6"2 and when tried on the 44 pant I very much liked them. Good baggy pant for us taller, (and in my case) older gents.

I just got some LEVI'S skate loose chinos showing up and they actually are pretty loose as advertised !
I would say they fit like a VANS Chino Loose. I wear POLAR 93! in 32 and Vans Chinos in 33, the Levis are in 33 and fit good.
a bit long maybe but I guess I have short ass legs

Update: these showed up and they're waaaay too big. Not even too baggy, just big. Could pull them on and off without unfastening them, whereas going a size up on standard Dickies is even a bit snug.

Both are 34s, although one is slightly tighter around the waist than the other. Both are a little wider than I would expect a 34 to be though, so I wouldn't size up on those.
Hmm alright. I actually forgot about the Frankie cords cuz I saw these
https://www.skatewarehouse.com/Dickies_Flat_Front_Corduroy_Pant/descpage-DKFFCPT.html
They kinda just look like cord 874s to me but I need brown cords!
Update: these showed up and they're waaaay too big. Not even too baggy, just big. Could pull them on and off without unfastening them, whereas going a size up on standard Dickies is even a bit snug.
Dickies consisting sizing challenge: level- impossible
hahaha mine came last night and i really like how they fit honestly. i wish they were a bit of a darker/richer brown like their standard 874 tho

The actual fit was okay which is why I re-ordered, but even with cranking a belt I would have just felt a bit ridiculous.
The brown is actually perfect for me. I wish they made the 874 in a lighter brown like they do the skate chinos.

What’s the general consensus on 550? Do you order normal size or size up? I’m looking for something to wear to work but also possibly skate in. Levi’s sizing is all over the place for me. I got those Levi’s stay loose jeans in my normal size and they were super tight in the waist and had a wide leg couldn’t even wear them.

Go tts or an inch or two up in waist. You should try em on at like your local mall tho and see how you like it though.

Consensus on the huf leisure pant? It was compared to the surf pant, but does anyone have a fit pic with these on so I can get an idea of what to expect? I guess the Theories lounge pant and maybe the Polar Grund chinos as well. In need of some solid pants and I’ve been teetering between these three.
Got to try on some washed black polar 92’s the other day and while they fit perfect on me, the taper was just a bit too much towards the ankles/shoe area. The sizing seemed perfect though and were tts in a 32.

I want to give a little plug for Magenta OG Chino cords.
Made in EU like Polar, but a slightly better fabric (I can’t believe Polar charges that much for such a shitty thin corduroy), nicer features like slightly deeper front pockets, some hidden pockets, triple-stitched crotch, etc), a more tasteful embroidery (for an old man like myself) AND a fair bit cheaper than Polar.
Slightly baggier than 93’s but smaller than Big Boys.
The cuff is maybe a bit too narrow for my liking, but that’s honestly the only complaint. The green cord is lush.
Liked them so much I splurged on 2 pairs. Awesome old man pants. (Which for you youngsters, old-man style is a large part of what we thrifted and made our own in the 90s).
Thank you Magenta.

Thanks for the feedback on these. I’ve been eying them up but wondered about the fit. How tall are you and what size did you get?

I got a pair of dickies cargos that fit like this but granted I did get em like 4 sizes bigger than my actual waist size. I wanna learn how to cinch the waist to my size tho bc they fit perfectly. baggy as fuck w a very very slight taper. I wish 874s fit like them but I understand they're an entirely different cut. after a while 874s shrink too much and are too tight on my ass but then again I bought them like 3 years ago and I gained like 30 pounds since I bought them. been meaning to buy some ben davis gorilla cut pants to replace my 874s tho, what's the consensus on the fit w them?

I’m 6 foot, 170 lbs. I like it baggy so I got xl. The waist feels like 35, compared to a 36 93 pant, whose waist feels almost bigger than that

i've been trying to find a dark brown pair of carhartt b11's for what feels like 2 years now lol. does anyone know of somewhere that would still carry the older B11 DKB color?

can anyone point me to a good 5 pocket jean thats loose but not over the top.. and true to size in waist (think polar 93 or carhartt b11 or silvertab baggy)? Ive been eying up the Quasi 101 jeans but if theyre any slimmer than my carhartt dungarees a size up (im 28-29 and wear 30) id be bummed lol.
Im totally over the giant pants from having rocked 32 silvertab baggies lol, i want that loose but clean look. cant seem to have any luck finding size 30 in those anywhere, so im looking for a good replacement to end this gear crisis. thanks yall
seem to have found what i was looking for lol. All i did was google around for a few minutes and came to this brand “powerhouse” that makes a 90’s loose cut jean. not too steep at 80 bucks considering silvertabs are marked the fuck up anyway nowadays. I love this baggy trend circulating rn, cant wait till its over so we can get the ebay deals again lol.

I'm currently wearing these cords. I bought them about a week ago. I normally get my pants in size 36 because I like everything a little loose (normally wear 34s) but I ordered these in 34s and I'm really glad I did. They have extra space in the waist so they almost fit like a 35 waist. The legs are the perfect amount of baggy without being too over the top. In terms of length, I'm 6'1 and these rest on my shoes perfectly without needing to cuff them. So I would guess the length is around 31'" give or take. I haven't skated them yet, but I plan on going after work today so I'll provide an update later.

I talked to the local and they said volcom plans to keep this pant in the line but rebrand it. Hoping that’s the case cause the fit is good. I hope other colors come out tho

Got them as well.
I'm actually a size 27" or 28" when fitted but wear 30" in most pants for comfort. I ordered these in a 30, but they really fit like a 32. Probably could have/should have gone with a 28 or 29. Fingers crossed, hopefully they'll shrink a bit after I wash them. Length-wise they're not bad. I have relatively short legs (~28" inseam) but these fit OK/stack a bit.
Overall, super comfortable to skate in, great for cold weather, and the quality thus far seems to be fairly high. Only time will tell.

the uniqlo U line looks good this season - glad to see that they're using pleats/darts - american men seem to have an aversion to these features (e.g. thinking they're 'fancy') - when in reality they're great for adding width/volume to pants
-
I’m gonna have to give it at least another season….
Never said fancy is a bad thing….but our baselines are pants designed to build things in….feel free to recommend another adjective…..

When does the Polar trend die? Skateboarders are the most jaded people on earth but will wear pants called “big boys” and pants that say “Dickies Skateboarding”. I can’t be the only one who thinks these two things are wack. Nothing against Dickies but the “skateboarding” part on all product is comical.

I just got a pair of the Polar Railway chinos on sale and damn are these joints baggy. I sized up since they were out of my usual size and I think that's what did me in. They're almost too baggy for my taste but they're made of a nice lightweight material that feels like it'll be nice for summer.

not sure if you’re asking me since you quoted me but I don’t wear dickies nor do I wear big boys so idk what to tell ya. This is the loose fit pants thread, I was merely stating polar is dropping a new colorway of a popular loose pant that fits and looks a lot better than their huge pants.

Oh no, I wasn’t firing any shots at you. Just branching off of the Polar post and got me thinking.

Don’t you think this thread is hyper focused and not necessarily what everyone is doing. Ie getting something that fits ok from a thrift store and moving on?
Maybe when I see guys in hard hats running Big Boys we can burn it all down and wear culottes….

I've never found anything interesting at the gross thrift stores here. They're selling used underwear at the salvation army it's pretty rough.
I corned it up and ordered a pair of Levi's "skate baggy" jeans or whatever they're called. I like how they don't have the big brown Levis's tag on the back. Got them with a white pocket tee for an okay deal of $100 CAD total with some promotion deals. New uniform en route.
I'm hoping they're heavier/stronger denim than these stupid 550s I have. I put a hole in them near the waist when I was angrily putting them on, ha... My thumb went right through but I didn't even notice at the time.

I like Mark's fit here. Guessing the jeans are Supreme, and I'm thinking he's a 36" waist with short legs. I'm 34" with a 33" inseam, more for folding up the hem. Had a look at Uniqlo and their 34" loose jeans have a 31.5" inseam, which ain't enough. Universal Works military chino/jeans a good, here in the UK, but a bit expensive for me. Any thoughts on jeans/chinos with a long leg length, a bit of taper, and a not too wide hem opening? Dickies are too short, and too wide at hem for me.

The wide fit work pants from Uniqlo are actually pretty decent length wise. I wear a 36x34 usually and the XL size fits me really well. They have a bit of taper too

Cool. I might have to pop into a shop, see what they've got, and try things on. These are the ones I was loooking at. 8.5" hem, but stops at 31.5" inseam for every size over 33". https://www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/wide-leg-jeans-455475.html?dwvar_455475_color=COL68&dwvar_455475_size=INS028 (https://www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/wide-leg-jeans-455475.html?dwvar_455475_color=COL68&dwvar_455475_size=INS028) And Supreme jeans are also too short.

Yeah I definitely recommend trying them on. The ones you linked I also found really short. These are the ones that I find fit really well and run a lot longer.

I’m 5’9, bought 31x32’s and they are not too short…1-.5 rolls.
In the US, someone posted a tall fit.
-
Big boy sizing??
32 waist, 5’11 - I would assume either a medium or a small?
Or if someone wants to talk me out of buying some that would be much appreciated. Tactics have some in stock with easy free returns, so I almost want to order some just to scratch the itch of trendy-ness.

these are not loose pants at all. These belong in the skinny thread

My bad, I just now saw that it’s slim through the thigh and straight through the legs. I was looking for loose selvage denim and got excited when I saw the price…just going to wait until someone posts about Uniqlo being in stock.

Light blue polar grund chinos at midnight. Polar skate co best fitting pants by far
When does the Polar trend die? Skateboarders are the most jaded people on earth but will wear pants called “big boys” and pants that say “Dickies Skateboarding”. I can’t be the only one who thinks these two things are wack. Nothing against Dickies but the “skateboarding” part on all product is comical.
Oh no, I wasn’t firing any shots at you. Just branching off of the Polar post and got me thinking.
Naw man, they’re amazing pants. Polar jeans look good but aren’t durable but grund chinos are fucking amazing, wearing a pair right now. Got mine for $45 off mtld but if you can get them for like $60 definitely try. Just really amazing light denim, doesn’t feel as heavy as jeans but is weirdly durable. Feel weird plugging them so hard but they’re just a great skate pant and you can get them on heavy sale
-
Polar blazed the trail to the point where they’ve become the standard, guys that skate for other companies buy their jeans, that’s an accomplishment. They aren’t mass produced like companies traded on the stock market so they cost more money……I’m not mad at it…..

i agree, big boys are over top baggy imo.. there is however polar 93, which in your true size, will fit pretty damn perfect. loose enough but not gigantic, highly recommend them if you want a pant thats gonna be a timeless classic outlasting gigantic pants trends.
theories plaza denim are a little baggier but also a good alternative. theories distro rocks.
pants made by skaters is a good thing. variety is good for me because i like loose 5 pocket jeans, otherwise id be stuck wearing carhartts only lol.
Ain’t nothing wrong with them carhartt pants. I’ve been stuck on the rugged flex work pants

Never had the Noahs before but I've heard really good things about the Polar Grund chinos. I have a pair of Loutres that are pleated denim and super baggy. They're my favorite pair of jeans but they're expensive and you might have to wait for their next drop to get a pair.
-

Huf Cromer jeans are pleated. I can't vouch for the Noah ones, but the Cromers are nice. Nice and loose in the thighs/crotch, but they cinch a bit at the waist because of the pleats and come to a nice taper at the leg opening. Wish the pockets were a little deeper, but they're a really nice fit for me.
-
Could we see some $500 pleated cords on the horizon?

Always wanted to ask this somewhere, so I figured this is the best place to ask:
loose/baggy or not, does anyone know where I can get some green corduroy pants? Specifically green colored, I have a really hard time finding them on the main market. Any shade is okay, but I don't like olive as much as the other green colors. If you know of any at all, shout them out!

The GAP has wide wale relaxed cords which fit looser than relaxed. A little stretch in them as well. Very comfortable. The green color (mistletoe) isn't the best but here you go:

I’m going through pant madness at the moment.
For nearly 10 years I’ve worn 872 dickies, slim fits.
Lately they’ve felt mad right around the thighs and calf, which makes me want to bump up to 873. I ordered a pair and tried them on, I look like Gilbert Crockett on steroids in these things.
I’m thinking it might just be leg length that’s messing with me, I generally wear a 32s with the slight cuff, anyone have any convincing words to make me try a stout fit 873?
-
I've never heard of 873's before, but if they're giving you the Gilbert Crockett look; you could just get the legs tapered a bit at a dry cleaner/tailor. If they fit well up top, but are too big in the calves/leg opening, that's an easy fix. This will probably cost under $20.

872s would be considered skinny in this thread, and even 873 are prob too slim for most peoples tastes. that being said, i think you should try to rock the 873s a bit longer. or get them in a length that hits right at your shoes, this way they still maintain their shape and wont start getting sloppy stacks at the bottom.
i used to wear 873s for a long time and loved them, but then i got into 874s and i cant even look at 873s anymore

Just a reminder to check your local Burlington. I’ve come across some great pants there lately.

872 and 873 are the same size at the thigh, the 872 are narrower from the knee down. 874 are wider at the thigh. And longer Dickies are wider than shorter (I think this is true for all the 87s) i.e. a 32x34 will be wider at the thigh than a 32x32.

I haven’t yet, but I think a few rounds in the wash might help them settle, but the length might still fuck me

Back to our regular programming…..Has anyone bought the gap baggy jeans?
-
^^ Yes. Pretty baggy - probably in between 93's and Big Boys in terms of bagginess. I had to put mine through the dryer a couple times before I could wear them, so don't size up unless you want them to be huge. More taper in the legs than Big Boys, but I wouldn't mind if they had a hair more. Pretty high rise, which isn't always the case at Gap. Quality and fabric are fine on the ones I have - probably a 'medium weight' denim. I think the regular price is a little steep for what they are, but Gap runs '40% off everything' type sales all the time.
-
Yah that’s what I was thinking, the barrels are still some of my favourite jeans. They had a black but I slept on them. Not that anyone cares but in the 90’s when skaters couldn’t afford Tommy or Polo….gap sale rack was a go to…

Just saw this post/ad with Carlisle Aikens for Levi’s x Urban Outfitters. “Super Baggy Skate Jean” $110 retail, way outta my budget for pants. I usually get my Levi’s from thrift stores or outlet stores. I also prefer 100% cotton but these have 80/20 with cotton and stretch materials. Just thought I’d share. Probably gonna see more companies offer baggy and skate related jeans. Lil Dre also just joined Dockers.

At that price you might as well just get a pair of vintage Silvertabs off eBay or Depop, which are probably going to fit way better and be made from better denim than these new ones.

Yeah definitely better to get vintage or mid 2000’s SilverTabs or 550s/560’s. I love skating in my older Levi’s. Anyone try the new age SilverTabs? I found a pair at Ross but they were 38x34, I wear 34x30. Quality felt good not great, 100% cotton.

I think technically the fabric is still denim but the materials is a blend. That’s why I prefer the older stuff, it’s usually a better quality cotton used and no stretch fabrics added.

I didn't see this info anywhere so I'll just post it here.
HUF Cromers are vanity sized, the 32 fit more like a 34, 30 like 32, etc. Advised to try a pair on in person. I got 32 and usually wear that, but they look huge on me, as if I'm trying really hard for the baggy pants look.

Got these for dumb cheap with the discounts.....
Sized down as mentioned, and I'm happy with them. The wash is just ok, but for the price and how they fit, they are a good buy. They are definitely baggy, but have a bit of taper which makes them good.
I'm not sure why we want so badly for levi's and dickies to work when other companies are making decent stuff....

passport pants fit very similar to polar 93’s. The waist is vanity sizing so a 32 will fit like a 34, etc. Good thick denim on those passports with triple stitching for durability. Try to find them on sale if you can, $100 is a lil steep because you can always find the canvas passports on sale with a quick google search, sure you can find the denims on sale too

@OhioGuy
6’6 w/36 inseam and had the same problems
skate brands will not have your back for pants
sizing always caters to the average sk8er height (about 5’6 - 6’)
i cant recommend running high waters with a straight face
theres a few brands that regularly have 36 inseam pants
what ive owned in order of recommendation:
carhartt (mainline not wip)
gap tall
asos tall
levis (quality worse than asos these days)
lee jeans has options but never tried em

@OhioGuy
6’6 w/36 inseam and had the same problems
skate brands will not have your back for pants
sizing always caters to the average sk8er height (about 5’6 - 6’)

Thanks! I was actually looking at some Lees on their website. Will check out the others ☺️

Any loose/baggy pants for someone 6’3. Like with a 36 inseam? Skate brands seem to think 32 is enough lol
Check out Old Navy Athletic fit Taper, and their Loose.
Great for fat asses, and plenty of room to move around.
And? 98% cotton 2% spandex. Not so bad these days.
I rocked ‘em last weekend and landed my first fakie “front” nose in 13 years. Old big-ass approved
*(just make sure to try more than one pair on for your size…. They can have wildly different fits.)
-
I think Uniqlo ran some tall sizes as well.....
-
I came across a bunch of cheap Dockers in 36” inseam at Burlington recently. All in relaxed, utility, cargo cuts.
-
dockers has a ton of options but are owned by levis
if quality isnt a huge factor then snag them below msrp
-
Yeah, all between $15-$20 is the key.

haven't had a pair of brown cords in like 10 years so what's the deal with some cords these days, pantaloon doods? Was looking at the Polar 93s but they seem just a little bit too baggy, as in baggier than 90s LL Bean cords. Not really trying to spend that polar $$ either...
I got some CCS cords which came out to like $36 or whatever because of their perpetual BOGO half priced sale. Super comfy and high quality.
did you get the elastic waistband ones or the button ones?
Button ones. I can’t do elastic pants other than sweatpants to lounge around the house in. There’s a teeny-tiny little white CCS logo on the back right pocket but also any of those big emblems are a cinch to remove with a $2 seam ripper.
nice. Yeah, that back paneling is fine. The elastic ones have a giant CCS logo right on the back pocket that's a little gaudy for my liking. Might try some of these cuz I need some new cords.
The price is right and CCS has a super easy and generous return policy. I ordered an embarrassing amount of pants until I found the styles and sizes that I wanted and ended up keeping three pairs.
the fit true to size?
just thought to revisit this and state that i was supremely dissatisfied with the CCS cords and returned them right away.
they're cheap material and very thin, like wearing them outside would have made me feel almost naked. Felt like the fabric was something off the cheap rack at Jo-Ann Fabric and would have ripped in one slam.
ended up getting a pair of brown and moderately baggy lands end wide wale cords at thrift store for $9 bucks that are far higher quality

Ryan Lay pants will be here Thursday. Will report on how they are. Also just got the Vans/Quasi pants and they are pretty good, but not super super loose fitting

Somehow stumbled upon a pair of Louie Volcom green cords at the thrift store for $5.19. Size 32, I’m usually a 33-34 but they fit great. Inseam is a little longer than I’d like but can’t complain much for the price. Gonna wash em and skate in em this weekend.

I like to get pants with super long inseams and then cut em, they seem to be much looser when I compare them to ones I got with a 30 or 32 inseam in the same model. I did that with double knees once tho , got some 36 lengths, and the knee patch goes to like my fuckin shoe 😆

difference between levis 550 & 560? i keep coming across conflicting info, i just want a nice loose pair of light washed jeans that arent Polars lol
The taper is much more drastic on the 560s. I find them a little looser in the overall fit.
bumping this cuz yesterday Brad Cromer did one of those IG Q&As and said the 560s were his favorite pants other than Silvertabs and his signature jean. Thought that was neat.

I Saw that too! I like 560’s but personally prefer the older 550’s. Not sure if it’s common knowledge here but Cromers IG thrift/clothing store page is @digforfyre he posts a lot of SilverTabs and sometimes does giveaways or discounts.

It was a Goodwill. My area in Florida has tons of Goodwills and other thrift stores. I hit the racks 2-3x weekly so I find a lot of cool gear I usually look at the pants first.

i'd say they fit wider definetly....brad cromer's vintage/ Thrift page listed the 32 width santosuosso jeans as an actual 35 width
so if you usually go with size 40 these should do in 36 or 38 maybe?
been waiting for some in black or darker colors. only one they have out right now in black is the one with the bright red contrast stitching if you're into that.

any short kings get their big boys tapered like an inch at the leg opening? i have to hem them (even XS) up a few inches but that creates a wider leg (9.5) and they look crazy baggy lol. I tried 93s but they fit too slim for my liking and when i size up, the waist looks sloppy :(

The 36 inch 93s have the perfect profile for me, but the waist is too big.
I tapered the size L big boys and hemmed them a bit, running them with a short cuff, and they are maybe my favorite pant now.

I don't like a wide opening, so have tapered Dickies 874s before. From 9" to 7.75", I recall.

how much did you taper? i was thinking an inch from thigh to leg opening would be a subtle taper. just threw em in the wash so they shrink up a bit and then gonna bring em over to a tailor.
weirdly, a pair of mint black i have fit perfect cuz they run a lil small i guess compared to my washed blacks

I do the same. One of the great recent realizations of my adult life was that I could just take clothes to someone and they could tailor them for me; I don't need to be constantly wearing cutoffs or searching endlessly for pants in the right length. It was $12 a pair, but my cleaner bumped it up to $20, which is still a fine deal for me because I get my pants back fitted exactly as I want them to.

Honestly tapering dickies isn’t the worst idea as the waist is usually high and ok, so you can size up and they are cheap…you just have to prepare to take time to find the right person to do it….

Here in London the local dry cleaner does tapering for £12 ($15). A new pair of 872/873/874 in the Dickies shop is £65 ($80). And Carhartt WIP Master loose pants are £90 ($112).

The 32 fits like a 34, 34 like a 36, definitely vanity sizing, so try them on first, I’d say just look them up every so often, sometimes your find a black pair, also all cash only jeans are the same fit as the butter goods Philly, if you can’t find the butters

I have inherited a sewing machine from my mother and have been doing it myself the past couple years, my friends will give me jeans and I’ll tailor them to the butter goods fit, or whatever fit they want, it’s an easy enough process with an at home machine, but good on you for keeping a dying artform alive, much props

I love the 93s. Tried on the 92s and absolutely hated them. They were tight, tapered way too much and overall the fit was very weird for me. I would not classify them as loose fit pants even though they kinda are in the upper part.

^^ I'd love a fit comparison to Polar Surfs, or some measurements (especially on an XL) for the Grand pants. The Polar ones fit me perfectly, but the Grand ones are often on sale, and I like the brown corduroy ones that they did for the current season. The Grand ones look a little slimmer in photos, but it's hard to tell.

Not 100% cotton but I've felt these and they are pretty close to the 874 shape but much softer. Around 60/40 Cotton/Poly composition but don't have that starchy feel. The little red tab on the turn-up may be a little annoying but can easily be unpicked/removed.

the quality and fit are pretty solid but I don’t like the short rise of them personally. The size 34 I purchased a year or so ago was awesome in that they fit like 36’s and quality was fine but they were nuthuggers man. Why any company would produce “baggy” pants and make them with a short front rise is beyond me. Hopefully they fixed that issue.

https://thinkempire.com/collections/men-pants/products/vans-range-relaxed-elastic-pants-fa22
Will do a quick review;
Brixton Choice Relaxed Chino: these are not super loose fitting - but i can get full extension of my legs without feeling restricted at all. I bought a size 33 which is the same size I buy for Dickies and it felt perfect. The quality of the material is very good. Doesn't feel sweaty but its nice and soft too. Fairly thick and seems durable. Not swishy. The button is fastened with belt loop material so I have confidence it will not fall off. There is also a nice little "Shield" Logo that they use above one of the bum pockets which I thought was a really cool little detail.
Grand Trading Cotton Pants: These are a drawstring, very baggy and swishy. I bought a large and they are a bit big on me, but I can tighten them up nicely still and have that Spencer Hamilton look. I am expecting thme to shrink a bit because they are 100% cotton as well. They feel really good quality and the colour is awesome. I think to pay full price for these is a bit crazy because I feel like the quality of Brixton is slightly better and I think they were slightly cheaper as well. They look and feel amazing though, I am really hyped on them. Wore them first out of the 3.
Vans Range These are also a drawstring pant. Straight away they already look hella faded. The quality of the materials is noticably worse than these other 2 brands from like 10 meters away. They actually feel a tiny bit stiff when you wear them, but they might actually last decent as a result. These were only $20 so I think they were worth the money. These fit a lot tighter than the Grand Trading pants.

I really want these Grand Violet cords: https://primaryskateboards.ca/collections/latest/products/copy-of-grand-collection-corduroy-pant-in-violet?variant=42369067614364
But I am doubting my ability to pull off such a colour... also they don't have my size currently so I guess I gotta go with the brown ones... Maybe I'll just drive up there and try them on. Often numbers that I think should be important don't mean shit in the end when there's such a huge variation. Even in the 2 pairs of Carhartt's I have that are both 36/32 the waist and length on each feels totally different.

just received these and hot damn. if you ever wanted essentially just better 874s, these are them. the pleats are classy looking, the material is lightweight and breathable. i feel like these could even be dressed up nicely. def not as hard wearing or durable as the poly blend but for a non skate pant i fuck w these heavy

The 874s are described as relaxed fit but these say "regular fit". They are similar?

anyone up in this bitch interested in some 34 Polar Grund Denim Chinos in black? Or light wash Silvertab baggys? both well worn and hemmed to 30 inch length. thought I'd ask before going through the effort in posting them on depop.
-
anybody here know if the big boy shorts are the same fit in the waist as the pants? i ordered an xl because its perfect in the pants, heres hoping theyre the same.
-
Tried with the silvertab baggy’s but honestly just can’t do it. Selling off two pairs of 34x30, black and light washed jean. Hemmed to 30 length (moms has an alteration shop and hooked it up). Hit my PM’s if anyone’s interested.
Also selling pair of black Polar Grund jeans, 34x30 hemmed also.
Think I’m a Polar 92! and loose fit but not baggy type of person.
What’s up with the silver tabs? Not my size but have them in my cart. Too baggy??

@Bror I actually bought some surf pants and they are light and comfortable but as baggie as big boys.

I know there's been talks of size inconsistency, but can anyone confirm if this is at least fairly accurate for Surf Pants? I wanna order some more for summer but am thinking of sizing down from what I have. According to this an extra small is as wide in the waist as a size 36 in 93s :o
My two pairs are Larges, and even if I tie them as tight as I possibly can they're still loose.

I can only speak from experience, but I'm a size 34 and my Large surf pants need to be cranked down to stay on. I ended up getting a Medium-Tall and the waist is much better, but they're not really the fit I want in the legs, much less baggy.

Is it that big of a difference? Large is pretty baggy on me and I'm willing to sacrifice some of that looseness for a more secure waist. I'm generally a 34 too, depending on the brand.

The Large seems significantly baggier. The medium tall for me is is closer to a dickies slim straight fit through the leg, not even a standard 874
-
eesh, don't really want that. Might stick with the large and just crank that drawstring.
-
I can't say for an XS, but that chart is not accurate for XL. I measured an XL pair of mine and got this:
Waist: 22" (fully stretched)
Rise: 13"
Thigh: 15.5"
Knee: didn't measure it (no idea where the 'knee' is on pants)
Inseam: 29"
Leg opening: 8.5"
Unless they've changed the fit since I bought them, that chart shows them 2" bigger in the waist, 1.2" shorter in the rise, 4.8" bigger around the thigh, and 2.1" longer in the legs compared to the actual pants in my possession.
I usually wear size 36 or 38 pants depending on the brand, and XL surf pants fit me really well.
-
I'm 6 foot 3 and like 163-165lb, 31 waist. M-Tall surf pants are still pretty loose on me. The large were just a bit too big and the waist required cranking. The problem with the M-Tall is the drawstring isn't long enough.
I've gotten rid of most of surf pants and replaced with Gramicci pants. Better quality, more durable, still pretty lightweight.

Picked up some big boy jorts today in S, same fit as the S jeans as well as the S surf pants.

93 cargos my new favorite pants. usually rock a 32 waist but got 34/32 and they are perfect bagginess
-
posted on here a month or two ago. stuck between 93 and big boy. i feel like 93 feels too small for my t shirt.. anybody else have that top heavy problem where the pants feel too skinny for the shirt youre wearing? lol. but then, big boys are starkly baggier. i guess i should just get my big boys tapered after all :/.
Yes, but not with loose fitting pants. Most of my t-shirts fit me nicely with slimmer pants also but some only work with loose fitting pants. Damn fashion making life difficult. :D

what about shrinkage after washing, these gotta shrink like a mofo? that would effect the fit?

anyone have thoughts on the Polar 92s? I tend to like a smaller leg opening at the bottom so the taper is appealing to me. do they tend to run true to size or should you size up/down?

they are good pants. These are the most tapered pants I own by far and they don’t really look like a skate cut in my opinion but I still really like them. I wear a 32 in 93 and in 92 so I’d say just get your normal size abd you should be good

they do vanity sizing, so if you want a true to size fit size down. I wear a 30 in most pants , but the 28 fits about 2" bigger in the waist, and held up to my carhartt loose fit denim size 30 looks exactly the same. I found on the 30" 93s the waist was too big for my liking and got saggy crotch.

this pretty much, i'm a 34 and my 34's kinda get that saggy crotch thing too. Good pants though, I'm one of the few people that like to actually wash my jeans on a weekly basis and they still look the same as when I first got them.
anyone here try enjoi's fader denim? i snagged a pair of a pal here but they didn't work out for me. selling em for cheap if anyone's interested.

they prob wont i had a pair of 32s that fit like 34s and they didnt feel baggy at all just looked crazy bunchy in the waist. it just falls down to personal preference if u dont care about the crotch thing. for me personally i just have OCD and need all my pants to fit in the waist or else i feel sloppy lol.

thanks for the reply! Might be worth trying for $16 on vans site at the moment. Typically a 36 waist and the size chart tells me XL but the w elastic waist and your baggies comment, maybe go large?

Pants madness.
I’m looking for some really dark indigo jeans with a relaxed to loose fit. Like the rigid unwashed or raw ingido denim.
I got some RVCA jeans that did mostly fit those criteria and were great for a week but they turned into skinny jeans after one wash.
I’m not opposed to getting Levi’s in a larger than normal size but I can never find 505’s in dark indigo or shrink-to-fit. Plus Levi’s quality/consistency leaves something to be desired IME.
Not looking for Polar Big Boys baggy or even 93’s or low rise or sits-below-the-waist type of things either.
I’ve kind of got that thiccness in the thigh/butt region y’know and the pants madness has been a struggle lately.
Any suggestions for a nice quality dark indigo denim with a relaxed to loose fit? 550’s? Doesn’t need to be a budget option.
Thanks.

stay far away from levis
they shit they make today is overpriced with h&m tier quality

These are pretty good:
https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/clothing/men/jeans/straight/569-loose-straight-fit-mens-jeans/p/005690127
I recommend sizing up one waist size. That will give you some extra wiggle room.
Aside from that, whenever I fall into pants madness, I hit up the Goodwill or Savers and try on a bunch of different pairs of pants until I find something that fits perfectly. I love being able to try them on and if you end up getting them, you know they're already going to be broken in and won't shrink. Then I'll make a mental note of the brand and fit for future reference.
I prefer spending $8 to $15 on some whatever pants than spending $50 to $80 for some pants online and have them not fit the way I want. I will only order pants online if its a brand and fit that I'm already aware of.

Truth in words right here! We have Savers brand thrift stores here and they've been a goldmine for my addiction to loose pants. Pant fittings are the most maddening process, they really are something you need to try on, unless somewhere online exists a pair on some kind of turbo-sale where you don't mind taking the risk for the price, although that is rare.

Thanks for suggesting the 569’s. I hadn’t seen those at the store I was in. I’ll give those a try.
Everyone is right on the nose about finding the best fit/sizing and ordering stuff online. It can be rough. Levi’s sizing can be all over the place too. And Carhartt…thrift stores are great.
I got some of the Belted Simple Pants from Dancer, Hjalte’s brand, on sale a while back. Very comfy and quality material.
They fit well but the low crotch kinda bugs me. I thought the built in belt would bother me but it really doesn’t.
The shirts are nice and thick too, but that’s for another thread.
I’d recommend pants from Dancer to anyone if you can find them on a good sale. They’re pricey but quality.

I've only in the last year switched back to even wearing jeans, nonetheless skating in them coming off years of corduroys, sweatpants, lounge or track pants. It's the tactile feeling of being really hot and sweaty with the heavy, damp denim rubbing against my legs. Hell, I'm even regretting my decision to wear a pair of Levis 505s today to work (at my desk job) when it's 73 degrees with about 95% humidity, might have to switch over to some Butter high wale cords I've got in the car.

Yesterday, I skated in a pair of Levis 550 92 jeans. With my quad measurement of 24.5 inches, these jeans provided a pleasant change from the Levis 514 straights and other brands found at Target. I particularly enjoyed the taper of the 550 92's. Although I was slightly self-conscious, it was nothing compared to how I would have felt wearing Levis 560's. I've noticed that jeans with stretch require me to buy a longer length compared to these 100% cotton ones. I'm interested in trying a lighter weight jean that offers a similar fit to the 550's.

how often are you washing pants?

how often are you washing pants?
As often as I skate so 3x a week. Man’s just trying to see if any companies have made a good material pant that can hold its color decently well. My surf pants for example have lasted pretty long

hear me out, don't wash your pants as much? shirts, socks, underwear, hell yeah! wash them shits every time you wear them!
pants, sweaters, jackets don't really need to be washed every time you wear them unless you get shit on them.

Pants madness.
I’m looking for some really dark indigo jeans with a relaxed to loose fit. Like the rigid unwashed or raw ingido denim.
I got some RVCA jeans that did mostly fit those criteria and were great for a week but they turned into skinny jeans after one wash.
I’m not opposed to getting Levi’s in a larger than normal size but I can never find 505’s in dark indigo or shrink-to-fit. Plus Levi’s quality/consistency leaves something to be desired IME.
Not looking for Polar Big Boys baggy or even 93’s or low rise or sits-below-the-waist type of things either.
I’ve kind of got that thiccness in the thigh/butt region y’know and the pants madness has been a struggle lately.
Any suggestions for a nice quality dark indigo denim with a relaxed to loose fit? 550’s? Doesn’t need to be a budget option.
Thanks.
I like 550’s. I usually size up 1-2 sizes. Macys or Levi’s outlet if you have those in your area. If you’re not opposed to pre owned I usually pick them up at thrift stores. My area has tons of good thrifts though. eBay or Poshmark should have a bunch for fair prices. If you can get a pair that’s made in USA or Mexico. They’re gonna be vintage or close to it, usually a much better quality and fit compared to the modern stuff.

I've got some Edwin jeans that are pretty good, and they do loose styles - https://edwin-europe.com/loose-tapered-jeans-kaihara-dark-pure-indigo-rainbow-selvage-13-5oz-100-cotton-blue-unwashed-i030699-01-99 (https://edwin-europe.com/loose-tapered-jeans-kaihara-dark-pure-indigo-rainbow-selvage-13-5oz-100-cotton-blue-unwashed-i030699-01-99)
These look pretty good. How’s the fit & sizing? Do you have for example Polar 93s to compare them to.
No, don't have any Polar to compare, sorry. But my Edwins fit true to size for me.

found an old pair from 30 ish years ago at a relatives, skated them last night. the pants are a size up, and the fit is really comfortable. feels kinda weird wearing them, it’s what i wore 25-30 years ago, and now cool younger people have made it interesting, so i’m wearing my own old clothing, to kinda look like younger folks. weird.
looked better with half-cabs, but not terrible with dunks. fun to skate in.
@Pastasash the advice to not wash your outerwear, after every use, is very solid.
the rituals pastasash performs to feel ‘cleanliness’, aint all that (the water waste, introducing more chemicals to your skinsuit, and absolutely severely shortening the lifespan of your clothing).

Have you tried just putting them in a bag in the freezer? It works.

So it's ok to wash a shirt, socks, and underwear every time they get worn/sweaty, but I can't wash my pants every time they get sweaty?
You guys are focusing too much on my personal laundry preferences. I'm sure someone out there has a pair of black cargos that have held their color up over the years regardless of how often/little they wash their pants, and that's all I wanted to know.
If you can't give me that info then just ignore my question, or open a thread bashing me/people who do laundry idc, ffs.

Do you only skate in one pair of pants? 3 times a week a lot to wash any garment
-
Know what, forget I asked for anything lol. Did not expect to blow up your guys’ mind on a strangers laundry routine.

-
I also don't think you need to wash your pants that much, but maybe you could just get 2 or 3 pairs of the same ones and rotate them so they last longer? Or if you have a pair that you like but the colour has faded, just re-dye them black?
If you're absolutely set on only skating in one pair of pants, and they have to be black, and they can't be faded, AND they have to get washed 3x a week without losing their colour; maybe consider some kind of nylon swishy type pants? Any kind of cotton/twill is going to lose its colour going through the washing machine that much, but polyester or whatever will hold it longer.

wow send them to a lab and have them studied then because thats a rare pair
also, there's no shame in washing whatever garments you wear to do sports/athletic activities in more often than your normal clothes
also also, could just re-dye them

For washing black clothes I’d recommend a detergent made for black clothes specifically. I personally use Perlana. Not sure where that is available but it keeps my blacks blacker way longer than normal detergent. Recently I’ve started to dig more faded blacks though so maybe I should switch it up.

i heard Quasi 101 jeans are solid.
550 might be your best bet. just dont get 560s because Polar 93s are literally 560 clones lol. my 28 waist 93s fit exact to a 30 560
but i feel the pants madness , ur not alone. i just sized down to 93s 28/30 (im 30 waist) after wearing 32 in silvertabs, and S-M in big boys for years. Jesus fuck, feels like im wearing skinnys but i know its a better look for me :o

Thanks pals. Appreciate the advice and info!
Guess I should’ve given more context, in the warm/ summer months I usually always sweat thru them when skating in the heat vs the colder months where I don’t really get as sweaty and don’t feel the need to wash them every time.
Might check out those rothco’s again, the ones I had were from years ago so might be better quality now.

Wash inside out and line dry your clothes when you can. Your clothes dryer is convenient, but it's fading the colors and ripping apart your clothes every time you use it.

These look pretty good. How’s the fit & sizing? Do you have for example Polar 93s to compare them to.
No, don't have any Polar to compare, sorry. But my Edwins fit true to size for me.
I tried on the Edwin Loose Tapered and the Loose Straight today and on me they're pretty much a regular fit, not loose at all really. I do have a strange body shape though. Most regular fit jeans are slim for me and slim fits are skinny and skinny fits I can't even get on. :)
For me Polar 93s are the best loose pants I've found but they're a bit restrictive. The rise could be lower or the ass area more spacious. Closest to Polar 93s I've found are Nudie Tuff Tonys & Levi's Skate Baggy jeans. Better variety in colors that I like too. Nudie has free repairs forever as well. Both have a way longer inseam than Polars. Probably like 4" longer in 32" inseam. Both seem a little more spacious in the ass area also. Could get them hemmed to get the same length as Polars if I wanted I guess. I haven't skated either yet but they feel pretty good just wearing around.
Edit: Forgot to mention that Levi’s 550s are not sold in Finland (and most of Europe?) for some reason and finding vintage ones isn’t super easy either.

This is only loose pants adjacent:
I (think) that I read an interview of Hjalte somewhere and IIRC he said something about having a big ass and that he skates only in the Dancer pants.

For loose summer pants, MUJI has a pair of hemp tapered pants that aren't too bad.
They are fairly loose, however they run short if you wear them at your natural waist.
Not sure how the durability will be, since they are lightweight, but I've got a few pairs of their hemp shorts that have lasted over 5 years (but I don't use a clothes dryer), and they are really nice for the relatively hot and humid summers we have here in Japan.
Another caveat: They are produced in Cambodia, so I'm not too sure about the labor practices/conditions there.

In my experience the original cut Ben Davis' have been inconsistent fit-wise over the years, but they have tended to not be "vanity sized," so get your true size, or one size larger. But it'd be safer to re-measure yourself to make sure because they might run smaller than what you expect. A lot of brands expect people to wear pants on their hip bones rather that at the "traditional" waist and I think the original cut was made for people to wear higher up.
They do not give/stretch much, if at all and they will shrink if you put them in the dryer.
Back in the day they were kinda weird shaped; like slimmer in the waist then would be a lot larger in the seat/hip area as well as having a high rise. They also used to taper a lot more than the 93's, almost more like the 92's.
LOL, sorry - this answer probably isn't very helpful.

Yah, I’d tend to say Ben Davis and anything Polar is incomparable…..

nah this was very helpful. im gonna avoid them altogether before i spiral deeper into pants madness. i need a consistent fit.
im also in this delemma where sometimes 93 feels too small but the big boys i also own feel too big in the seat, i wish i could find a silvertab baggy clone that has that good taper, with a longer rise like polar does. that would be gassss

magenta og pants- the drawstring ones are pretty cool. theres a ripstip variant but the regular ones are a quite comfy material.
other than that theres these vans baggy taper pants with a drawstring too, might find these on sale. don't know about materials though.
thriftstore pants- you'll find some light ones easily.
that said: fit and material is pretty much the best of these on the polar surfs!
gramicci pants maybe? never had them but seem pretty liked for summer round these parts- slap that is ;D

Those are too thick for 90 degree days. You’ll develop jungle crotch. If you’ve never skated in mesh shorts it’s time. I prefer Champion cause they are baggy, double mesh lined, deep pockets and cheap.

Just wanted to say I’ve been wearing the Volcom x Louie Lopez Cords lately and I highly recommend them. I’d size down 1-2”. Very comfortable, soft but still protective with just the right amount of stretch (98% cotton/2% elastane) and the dark green looks great. A little baggy but not massive. Not sure if they’re still available online or at shops since he went to Noah. Hopefully there’s still some stock out there because I’d like to get a backup pair. I lucked out finding these at a Goodwill for $6 in great pre owned condition.

Just wanted to say I’ve been wearing the Volcom x Louie Lopez Cords lately and I highly recommend them. I’d size down 1-2”. Very comfortable, soft but still protective with just the right amount of stretch (98% cotton/2% elastane) and the dark green looks great. A little baggy but not massive. Not sure if they’re still available online or at shops since he went to Noah. Hopefully there’s still some stock out there because I’d like to get a backup pair.

Nice! Thanks for the lead. Unfortunately they don’t have my size, currently wearing a 32” for these pants. They do have 28, 30 and 36 if any other Pals are interested.

been lurking here for a minute… does anyone know of a pant that fits baggier than a 93 but more tapered in the legs than big boys?
driving myself crazy here. 93s in a 28/30 fit my waist good but the rise isnt high enough to my liking and the legs arent baggy enough for my t shirts (i look popsicle legged) , so i sized up to a 30 and the fit is perfect besides the waist being a bit too big and sagging inwards creating those folds around my junk 😖
big boys are the closest i can get to a true waist + baggy fit but even in an XS theyre huge. dont really wanna go thru the hassle of tapering them myself or professionally if i dont have to, but the pants madness im experiencing sucks so i might just do that. any suggestions for denim is appreciated.

Get something like a Levi's 541 1-2 sizes up and have a tailor take in the waist. What you're describing is the Uniqlo Wide Fit that they don't do anymore unfortunately.

You should double check that…..I think they just re-upped…..

damn uniqlo wide fit looks perfect… people that rock 93s do yall just deal with the crotch when u size up? feel like every time i wear my 28s they look crazy small even though they feel moderately loose. i wonder if theyll stretch out a lot
-
I bought the last run and they are a relaxed/loose, I wouldn’t say baggy but to me they fit well. You have room but not much sag. The description is a bit different than the last run but the picture looks pretty accurate.

I ended up tapering them a touch myself so they don’t drag, and now they are pretty much perfect.

Can't skate on shorts and is getting hot in here. Which is a good alternative for this?
I was checking those Polar surf pants but I'd like to have more options.
100% flax linen pants.
I found several ones like some Vans Range, Volcom Outed Space and some others. At the end getting new without tags Surf Pants on Vinted was the best way to go.

i actually did the same on my blue pair. ill post a pic later… might take em in a bit more but reducing the leg opening makes them sit way better lol

Yah there’s a point with bagginess where you’re tripping all over your heels or you can’t wear vans because they aren’t bulky enough. A baggier version Jean from a normie brand is the gap baggy Jean. I got my actual waist size and IMO they are a bit too baggy maybe cause the denim is thicker, they are just kinda heavy and cumbersome for me, but I think your average skater looking for a bigger Jean would like them.
I just don’t really trust skate brands with pants……I often buy my shit online and I think the fits are often odd and they are expensive.
-
they look solid and the 9” opening seems to be perfect measurement for me. they kinda remind of phillys, but i cant do those because the rise for some reason longer than big boys, and considering im a short king i look diaper mode lol.
hope im not completely ignorant, but you think more brands would capitialize of the silvertab baggy fit , specifically the black tag grey font. loose tapered but not too crazy.
i agree , normie does it better a lot of times. a lot of skate companies rn are digging into baggy way too hard and creating these insane caricatures of a skater wearing almost clown pants imo (vans covina denim) lol

Skate brands seem to be the ones that most often realize that baggy pants need to be tapered at the ankle so you don't step on them. As I start to see more non-skaters around in baggy pants, I'm noticing that they're mostly going for pretty wack boot cuts. This tracks with most of what I see when I check for loose pants from major non-skate brands.

Anybody try those Nike Kearny Cargos?
I just ordered some in the Black colorway shorts of the KEARNY CARGOS. Must say they're my favorite short and since I liked them so much I ordered the pants as well. The material is ripstop but it's not shiny or polyester feeling - it feels like a cotton blend, but it feels light for summer, but durable for skating. They feel more durable than my Polar Surf Pants for sure. in my opinion, but cooler, and lighter somehow.
I'll update when I get my actual pants for the fit as well, but I'm hyped on the shorts version so far.

Opinions on Dickies Thomasville jeans? The fit's pretty loose, it seems.

LOL, those are Vans jeans and the photo came from their website. I've never tried them on personally, but most of their loose pants look shoe-swallowingly large in their photos.

this is the mistake that all those old heads were trying to keep us from making when the baggy pants trend came back, and for some reason every street leaguer seems to be wearing them

My friend gave me some random ass black loose fit jeans and i like skating in them better than my black polar 93’s. lol.
guys, just go to a thrift shop or garage sale. although i don’t regret my purchase of the polars (i still really like them), you don’t need so cough up 100 plus beans for some skate pants lol

did you get the size you usually get in other pants? usually get a 30 but i tried a 28 cuz the chart and they fit kinda small on me, im afraid 30s are gonna be too big and ill waist my money. the sizing is so weird.

the pants my homie gave me were a tad bit tight around the waist and seat. i just stretched them and pulled on them and they fit so good and are so comfy now.
if you’re asking about polar’s, be aware of the difference in fit/feel/and behavior of the fabric depending on the color you get.
my black polar pants of course stretched, but reasonably so. they were also a bit rougher feeling (but by all means still very soft and comfortable)
for blue polar pants, they stretched out and “bag out” alot more. my blue polar 93’s look much wider and looser now compared to when i first got them.
my black polar pants fit pretty much the same as when i got them. keep in mind that i skate them alot!
my black polar pants definitely get alot more wear due to these reasons. they fit and look a whole lot better than the blue ones over time, in my opinion.
i think the term for why the difference in color in the same pair of pants is sanforized. i’m not positive about this, but i think the black denim is sanforized (pre shrunk), while the blue denim is not.
key points: if you go with black polars, go TTS. the fit will stay the same. if you go with blue polars, you can go TTS in the waist but just know that they will stretch out (not so much in the waist, but ALOT in the seat and thigh)

hmm… yeah i totally agree. the black denim deff fits smaller. my blue 28s fit like regular jeans at first and stretched a bit but i probably just need to size up. if all else fails, the vans covina denim will save me, shit lookin like a dubble boot cut killa :-* :-*

You're right that sanforization is when they pre-shrink the denim, but any jeans from Polar or any other skate brand are going to be sanforized. Unsanforized jeans will shrink significantly their first time through the wash - often a full size. The only unsanforized jeans I can think of that aren't from a fancy Raw Denim Guy brand are the Levi's Shrink-To-Fits. A lot of people will buy them a little too big, then soak them in water and sit around in soaking wet jeans for several hours while they shrink and form to their body. Which wouldn't be necessary if you wanted a loose fit.
Sanforized (pre-shrunk) denim will still shrink in the wash, but the sanforization process siginificantly reduces the shrinkage. While both are sanforized, the difference in fit between the blue and black Polar jeans is probably due to some differences in the fabric or dying process. One might be a heavier/lighter weight fabric than the other, one fabric is maybe woven tighter than the other (causing it to stretch out less with wear), or some part of the factory dying/washing process caused one to shrink more than the other.
-
Have in mind that all Polar pants aren't made in the same factory (sometimes Poland, sometimes Portugal)
Hence some variety in fit / sizing
Even if you give the same dims to those factories they won't make the same pant

whats up with the cromer pant? size chart says a 30 measures to be a 32… but does it really? why does vanity sizing even exist lol

Just wanted to thank the good folks on this thread for pointing me towards Carhartt Force ripstop pants and B159's, they're the best.
If you're in the market for cheaper Carhartt, they have a site where they sell worn and irregular clothes, I picked up two pairs of pants for like 50 bucks, was well worth it.

For vanity. But in my experience, the waist is actually bit cinched on Cromers due to the pleats and they are not vanity sized in the waist at all. Mine are size 38, but the half waist measurement is 18.25" (or 36.5" around). Perfect for me - I'm probably actually a 36, but I go up to 38 in a lot of pants for room in the thighs/crotch/butt, which the Cromers have quite a bit of.
They're a little bit parachute shaped - cinched in at the waist, pretty roomy in the top half, but a noticeable taper below the knee. The pleats are small enough that you can't see them under an untucked shirt.

Anybody try those Nike Kearny Cargos?
I just received my Kearny cargo pants in the mail, so I can't attest to their durability, but they fit on the baggy side, without any taper at the ankle. They're bigger than what I would think of as loose, but they're not quite baggy...sort of perfectly in the middle to me. Nike site has them on sale for $70 right now, so I ordered 2 pairs of pants - I think they might be discontinuing that model for a non-cargo option - (I could be wrong, I only briefly checked)
Hope this helps!

I had a pair and they were looser in the thighs than expected, but surprisingly well made for a Vans product. Minimal branding so you could remove the small Vans tag if you cared. Quality was par with the Levi's Stay Loose Chinos.

I used to have some Vans chinos and honestly really liked them. They're a lil slim for my taste these days but I'm also not trying to rock giant Big Boy clones, so whenever I see a nice loose taper I get excited.

On Volcom’s website there is a fit guide that will ask you what size pants you usually buy in other brands and it tells you what your Volcom size would be.

yes, they bigger than advertised ie. if you are a 34 normally buy a 32 IMO. I got the billows. I'd recommend as long as you are cool with running the stone......

M8 you bought gap pants and then complain because they were shit quality. Buy better quality stuff to begin with and you won't have that issue.

Usually I find this happens if you wear the pants baggier, or the crotch doesn't fit perfectly. Unless they're reenforced down there, it tends to split after a while. Maybe try Carhartt or some other work brand

Update.
It was my first venture into customizing pants beyond patching and hemming.
Watched some YouTube vids, thought about the sizing, and went for it.
It actually turned out well for s as first try. Made them a little overly baggy, but I’ll know for next time. They are still usable and nice and loose for summer.

and im wondering if anyone can plug me a modern clone thats being made rn because it would be nice to not have to scour ebay for a pair thats not entirely worn out. ive seen the huf cromers, but the pleats tickle my OCD nerve.
what i like about these tabs is that fit true in the waist but have a normal rise and are still loose AF.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought the polar 93 jeans were supposed to be the same thing or similar in cut

It's wacky because polar jeans can differ based on where they're made. I would try going a size up

comparison between theories plaza and big boys in terms of fit?

Ive got some Polar 92s I quite like, which are wearing out and there are some 93s on sale nearby. Are the 93s much baggier? I dont wanna TJ myself. 92s are a pretty good fit.
-

theories arent even close to big boy. id say they fit more like 93s but taper more. they also run true so a 28 93 fits like 30 theories and so on.

I feel like the closest thing to a Silvertab baggy fit out there is the Magenta's OG denim.

What is the leg opening measurement on those?
-
Levi's 541 is like... 19-20cm leg opening, so its perfect taper, imo. Its not fabric flying all over your shoes, looks good if they are slight short in length, and also when cuffed. 550s is pretty consistently 20-22cm.

Im wearing a size 32/30, the waist size is probably a little bigger than an average 32. Its really comfy though and i like the slittly baggier feel. If you want something more proper fitting i would recommend sizing down
-
just got two pairs of cromer jeans, one was on a heavy sale and i got it for 30€
anyway they are the light wash blue jeans ones and this sage colored ones.
wore the jeans/ light wash for a while now and they were quite large and hella long since i sized up. couple washes in i think they might shrink to fit a good bit. laying them over the sage colored newer ones there seems to be more than an inch difference in lenght, anybody experienced something similar with these?
-
The waist size on polar 93 is definitely larger than they say, and/or they just don’t really shrink. If you size up, you will be cranking your belt. The polar 92 is far more tapered than the 93 and resembles a silvertab more than the 93. Levi’s 550 and 560 vary in the taper department depending on where they were made, ones with a more generous taper will note it on the pants somewhere, whether it’s the back tab or size tag inside. Go on Depop, skip the silvertab, look for some 560’s loose fit tapered a size up. Lots made in the USA on there at a reasonable price
-
I have some 93's in 36", even though I'm more if a 34" nowadays. They're massive. I love 'em though, any baggier and they'd be too baggy. I'm 92 curious as I want to start wearing relaxed/loose fitting pants instead of super baggy.
I really like a pair of Carhartt dungaree fit carpenter jeans that I picked up from a vintage shop. Best fitting jeans I own.
Magenta OG denim I've had a couple of years now, they're nicely tapered but a bit too wide in the thigh for me now, but it could be because they're a size too big.
Yardsale Phantasy jeans are sick.

What do you guys do about getting skate wax all over your jeans? I dont wanna put my jeans in the dryer cause im afraid they will shrink too much (thinking the heat will melt the wax off) ive tried scraping off the wax but notice sometimes that makes the jeans look even worse

Dish soap or stain spray before wash and then was with a slightly higher temp water.

well it looks kinda wild but then when you wear it, since it is thought to be worn above waist it is a really good fitting pant and goes over blazer mids and the like pretty good at the ankle. the size/ lenght difference between 32 and 34 is crazy though...i gotta hem my cromer pants a big bit

Simply put paper towel over part of the jeans where it is stained with wax and iron over it.
Iron will melt wax and paper towel will soak it up.

picked up gap baggy khaki and they are great. A bit on the thicker side, I think they have a bit of stretch, got wast to fit no belt i.e. small, and still between baggy and loose....bit of a taper. they always have them on sale. I recently got a carhartt WIP master pant and I'm happier with these.

And 34" was somewhere between 35" and 36".
Carhartt WIP runs a bit large so 30" in Cromers would hopefully fit just fine.

Theories Lounge Pants are a similar type of pants to surf pants, but with belt loops and a second back pocket. I've never tried them on, so I can't say how close they are in terms of fit.

Uniqlo smart ankle pants sized up one size.
Additionally, Uniqlo cotton relaxed ankle pants are a great surf pant alternative, half the price and has both back pockets. Might be a better/cheaper option for sewing belt loops on something.

I wear the Dickies Flex cargos and like them a lot. I go for the relaxed fit but you can go loose fit if you want them a bit baggier. Plus the price is right.

If not mentioned already checkout the Nailer from Volcom; true to size waist and inseam; straight cut but really loose…has that borderline fresh/hesh vibe.

I have a pair of the washed black in L (34-36). I really like the fit, but need to post them somewhere because I am 6'4 and they are flood pants on me.. They are baggier than a 93, but not quite Big Boy -- definitely a nice taper. Wish I was a tad bit shorter, or they had a longer inseam option.
-
I purchased the Huf Cromer pant in the washed black denim color and I am quite fond of them. I’m around a 33 waist and I went with a 34. The fit is great - baggy but not obscenely baggy. Reminds me of a little looser fitting and longer Polar 93 denim. Would recommend for sure.

Baggy pants galore in my closet lately.
Got 93 cords on trades. 2 pairs. High quality corduroy, TTS waist, nice taper. If I wear them not hanging off my ass, they could be a work in an academic or office setting pant. Otherwise, just a quality pair of pants. Not $150 pants, but $60-80 would be fair
Magenta loose pants were acquired on the deep discount and are awesome. Crotch could be lower, but they’re well made, look clean enough, and dry very fast if wet
Got a pair of OG baggy silver tab Levi’s at a thrift for $7. Nice thick denim, TTS. Pretty baggy, kinda too baggy. Feel like a corner boy in the Wire wearing them.

I really wish companies would have basic measurements on their pants. I like the Passport stuff but the one pair I've tried was absolutely massive in the waist it was a 32 and measured 37 I think, but the length was right.

i rock size medium. I'm about a 32 waist, and the medium gives me a little wiggle room in the waist where I need to wear a belt with them but they are perfect like that. not bunching in the waist or anything. I'd say large if you want a little extra baggy , but medium might be good for you as well if you aren't that tall.

not sure if these have been mentioned before, but I picked up the Wave pants from Tactics over the weekend. Fit is solid. Bit baggier than Dickies 874s, not as baggy as SB kearny. Look similar to Polar '93s. I'ma 34 in Dickies and got the Mediums and waist is perfect. One of the cooler things is there's a somewhat silky nylon material inside on the front just above the knee down to the shin, makes it really comfy. Haven't skated in them yet, might be an issue if you sweat a lot. They got camo, black, and olive, and even some cords in a few colors.

yo anybody already got the polar 93 denims (from the newest drop) in pitch black an can give some advice on how they fit?
or maybe atleast tried them on at your local?
usually black dyed denim always feels stiffer and fitting a little slimmer.
i have the washed black 93 jeans too wich are becoming my favourite pants. i usually wash them on low temperature (20-30 celsius) and the feel a lil shrunk on the first wear after but wear in great after a while.
i usually rock the 93s in 34W/ 32L for a looser fit but went 36/32 on some of the cord ones and put in a drawstring on the insie of the waist.
Thanks in advance
-
Indicated size vs. real life is a gamble with Dickies. E.g. all my 574s have been different mostly from the waist, even though the size has been the same. Probably not going to order pants online anymore, as it seems too much of a hit and miss.
-
I'm sure Carhartt WIP label the Master pants wrong to make them seem more baggy. The 32s have a 36" waist.
Probably not going to order pants online anymore, as it seems too much of a hit and miss.
Ask for measurements: width along the waist, total length from top to hem, hem opening. Then you'll get an idea of fit. Inside leg is confusing if you don't know the rise.

Since Buttergoods is offering “core” denim now ( i dont really like designs in my jeans) i wanna sell all my polar pants and give em a shot.. does anyone know how the ‘baggy’ cut fit? they look like they have decent leg opening without the bulk of a pair of big boys, similar to my silvertabs… what do yall think?
seems like a genius move to offer three fits. if Polar made denim that was in-between 93s and Big Boys they'd be tapping a good market. now that i look for pants that fit me right in the waist but are still decently baggy I feel like I cant rock my polars anymore which sucks cuz their quality is top knotch.

Got a pair of new Levis Siltertabs for like £53 in the sale + some other discount codes (love signing up to a mailing list and instantly unsubscribing lol).
They fit so well, I usually get 34/32 but they only had 34/34 in stock, but they sit on my shoes really good.
Edit: agreed about a middle ground between Polar Big Boys & 93's. 93's bagginess is perfect but there isn't quite enough taper on them.

i guess in my case 93s in my waist size arent baggy enough. my case being i like to get a truer to size waist but still have a wide leg… im like a 29 but wear a size up at 30… i tried sizing up, but a size 30 in 93s feels weird and sits too low for me.
a size 30 in tabs is like that middle ground. im gonna order some butter baggys in a 28 (they fit 2” big in waist?) and compare measurements

@gearcrisis The baggy Butter Goods fit is somewhat similar to the vintage Silvertabs I've had. It's a baggy fit that has a nice taper from the knee down, so they don't look huge. I think my size 30s have around an 8.5in leg opening. I've never had Big Boys but I'm almost 100% sure that the Butter Goods are less baggy. Definitely less baggy than the vintage Anchor Blues I have too.
Also I wouldn't get your hopes up for those Uniqlo U cords to restock. They barely ever restock or bring back exact items for the U line and it's a bummer.
-
I have a ton of baggy and baggiest butter goods jeans, but I’ve never taken the time to compare to my big boys.
I can say for certainty that butter goods denim is superior to Polar’s denim.

damn is it actually? i thought my polar denim / vintage tabs were as thiccc as it gets. ill have to give the butters a shot for real. gonna snipe a black friday deal >:(
if you don't mind my two cents on polar vs butter goods:
i have a couple pairs of the baggiest/ philly santosuosso butter jeans, also like 3 jeans and 2 cord polar 93s.
i rock the butter jeans size 32, polar 93 in a 34 waist since i like em a little more loose fitting.
denim on the polars is way stiffer and heavier than on the butter jeans.
both shrink a little after a wash even on low temperature but wear in pretty good and feel looser after a while.
32 butter and 34 polar are about the same width.
+ on the butter jeans is the internal waistband.
one of my butter jeans came with so much excess sewing on the inside of the leg that i had to cut a whole bunch out of that but that didn't really make any other problems.
i'd say quality on polars is better/ stronger material on the jeans but sizing seems to vary quite a bit between materials/ jeans washes and on where they are produced: poland vs portugal
hope i didn't ramble / derail too much as i tend to

I really wish companies would have basic measurements on their pants. I like the Passport stuff but the one pair I've tried was absolutely massive in the waist it was a 32 and measured 37 I think, but the length was right.
What colour did you get? I know they had some sizing issues with their first run of blue indigo jeans. I bought a black pair and they fit a lot better.
Theyre the whte trousers, looks like denim although I haven't seen them in person yet. I got em on depop for 30$ so a steal no matter how they fit haha

wanna pull the trigger on a pair of dancer simple pants but not sure whether they will be loose enough. They're listed as wide straight fit but look quite tight in photos. Anyone have any experience?

dancer pants are literally grammici pants with a different label. You should just size up and they should be plenty baggy. Belted system at the waist also so nothing to worry about.

I've been finding the Vans baggy tapered "range" pants for cheap the last year, they're solid. They've faded with use, but I'm about to try to use Rit's back to black kit on em. Feels shitty and wasteful to just buy new ones so hopefully it works.
I swear the best loose fitting pants are some old dockers at the thrift store. If you find something a few sizes up in the waist with a 30in inseam, you've got something special.

I have the Vans Nick Michel loose tapered jean and I quite like them.

my surf pants got faded after a year of wear too and i did the dye thing- usually works pretty good. mine looked like new after a wash and dye

For people that have had both Butter Goods and Passport, how is the quality of Passport denim? I know that they're from the same distributor, but don't know if it's all made in the same factory. I like Butter Goods sizing/taper but am too old for the embroidery.

I have the passport club shorts in brown denim and I would say its nice if not nicer than my Carhartt wip denim. Also has triple stitching which Im a sucker for.

Wrangler Five Star Relaxed Bootcut at Walmart. They have a little stretch and are under $25. Bought two pair love em. I looked stupid as hell in relaxed jeans from Dickies and Levi but the Wranglers are baggy enough but not crazy.

I really like them, reach for them more than my butter jeans.
If you don't want the embroidery Butter have a new core range of denim in different fits.

Carhartt 15oz. heavyweight jeans. Relaxed fit. These things are tanks. I’ve had my pair for 2 years now. They’re really starchy and rigid once you first get them. But after alot of wear and washes, they feel super comfortable and soften up.

bought the dancer simple pants and the fit kinda sucked. I got an xl hoping for a baggy fit despite being 31 waist and they were straight fit at best. Also the inseam was wicked short so i ended up returning them. Gonna wait for grammici to drop some ripstop baggies hopefully for spring.

Sorry if this has been mentioned here (I searched the thread and got not results) but has anyone tried the CCS baggy jeans or chinos? They have the 20% sale so I'm trying to see if they fit similar to Polar 93s or anything closely related.

Has anyone tried Pangea jeans yet? I'm looking to grab a pair of the street fit joints and worry they won't satiate my desired baggyness.
Was thinking about Televisistar as well, they look like they wouldn't certainly be baggy enough but something about the waistline makes me think twice.
I usually get size 38 or 40 Butter Goods jeans and XL Big Boys for reference.

Damn how baggy you trynna get?
I imagine Pangea jeans are baggy enough for most tastes. Size up if you’re unsure.

We aren't talking JNCO territory here but I'm experiencing a weird phenomenon where when I sized up my pants, everything that's less feels and looks like I'm back in '03 wearing side-pippers. I know this is a purely subjective matter, what's baggy or loose for one person may not be for the next person. But objectively I'd probably go to TBP levels of baggy.

I just nabbed a few pairs of the range pants (non-tapered) via the 12-days of xmas vans sale to be a pretty good fit: 195lbs/5'10' 31" waist and I got Medium...which are loose in the waist elastic (but have drawstring) even after a hot wash and hot dry to shrink them down a bit; they're the max I'd want to go (couldn't find the tapered in medium) - solid overall.

Hello! Can somebody help me getting the right size on Polar pants? I do have 32/30 for the 93's and i was thinking to get some big Boys, Is there somebody Who has both model and can suggest me the right size?

I saw some new Polar 93s and holy hell is the quality and design low. Compared to some $29 Uniqlo denim the weight is similar, the cuffs are not stitched straight, the stitching along the inseam isn't straight and even, belt loop placement is a bit weird, and the cut is bizarre. The inseams are not remotely accurate we measured a tagged 32/32 in the shop as a 34.5/30. Levi's has notoriously spotty QC, but they still surpass the quality of the newest Polars I saw. I guess you pay for the fit and pocket logo and Polar does have some cool washes.

Measurements are actually correct for those 93's. Cant speak to the rest of your QC complaints. Every few seasons there is a bad batch it seems like.

i don't have big boys, they're too baggy for my taste, but i work at a shop that sells both and a lot of my friends have both. if you don't want the pant leg to go under your shoe then definitely don't get mediums, smalls will be fine. one of my friends is similar height to you, he wears 32/32 in 93s and big boy size S fits him well, i mean as well as a pair of big boys can fit someone.

Ya I guess I haven't bought any in a few years but still have a pair of cords and standard denim in my closet. The fit seems different and the bottom of the pant near the cuff is sewn different. Different belt loop placement and deeper pockets.

Thanks for the Infos, i dont really know if i Will get big Boys then.
I do have 2 pairs of 93's ( light Blue and some work 93's) which feels kinda different even if they are the same size (The work black 93 looks like Is 1-2 cm smaller on waist than the light Blue). did you ever notice something like this too?

Probably Is Better if i get a chance somewhere to try both S and M before buying , if i will get some.
M should be ok on waist(45cm like 93) but too long, and S im afraid that could be too right on waist (which is not comfortable to me).

Has anyone picked up the new Butter Goods "core" denim -- in either the Relaxed or Baggy fit? Wondering what the inseam is on those for a 34 waist and how they compare to Polar. My local doesn't carry Butter.
Is this a fair comparison fit wise?
- Butter Relaxed --> Polar 92
- Butter Baggy --> Polar 93
- Butter Santosuosso --> Polar Big Boys

Levis Stay Loose chinos are my recent find, 100% cotton, heavyweight and still the perfect amount of loose, the only complaint is the inconsistent sizes on levis, my 501 93s fit perfect on the waist but those are easily 1 size up from normal 28s

Finally tried out Gramicci’s standard “Gramicci” pant and hot damn do I love it. But I feel like I’m taking crazy pills as I can barely find the brand anywhere online. Yes it’s out there, but whatever sites I find on Google are international, sizes are completely sold out, etc.
Even REI, where I’m pretty sure I used to see Gramicci at all the time, is completely wiped clean of ANY products on their site.

This might be a long shot but I was able to get a couple of colors in a size that was sold out online of the Gadget pant because I contacted them and said I worked for one of the local climbing gyms in the area. After a few emails they just asked for a pay stub, which I just edited one I found online that looked legit, and I was able to get those as well as some pretty hefty discounts on them.
This has worked with a few friends because Gramicci is so climber friendly and hands the codes/sizes out very easily.

From my experience they change slightly material to material and season to season. The most consistent sizing os on "core" colors. The special washes fit a bit slimmer, not sure if thats related to the dying wash process or what. The cords I had were a bit tighter in the waist. Again may be a factor of just the material and a few washes, denim tends to shrink less.
-

569’s are good but I always recommend 550’s if available. The rise is typically higher and the pants have a little more room in them. I usually size up 1-2 inches, requires a belt. It also depends on your body type. I’m short, round and have bigger thighs, a 569 might be better for someone slim and tall.

I grab a pair of the poetic collective painter paints after work last night from my local in the sales. Exactly what I was looking for, nice light pants like polar surf pants, with an elastic waist but more pockets and belt loops.

the theories pants come in a bunch of different fabrics, some are heavier than others. surf pants are way more lightweight than the theories pants imo especially if you are in a humid climate.

Don't really have a go to chino at the moment. I run surf pants alot which are chinoish. I also just bought a bunch of Carhartt WIP Flint pants. Got like 6 pairs of those since black Friday on sale. I put on a few lb's traveling for work in the fall so pull on/elastic waist is my friend right now till I get back to my fighting weight.
I would honestly save the money instead of getting 93's just get the new Levis Silvertabs. I sold all of my 93's in depop, replaced them with the silvertabs and had a ton of cash left over.

I would honestly save the money instead of getting 93's just get the new Levis Silvertabs. I sold all of my 93's in depop, replaced them with the silvertabs and had a ton of cash left over.
what the hell are the new silvertabs lol. i guess i gotta google search. previously could not find any that didnt have daisy duke esque distressing or knee hole.
also, has anyone considered abocrombie? i always hated this brand but their loose line looks solid.
not sure where they fall in the realm of sustainability ethics and such.

do the 93s fit pretty consistent from material to material? have the cords rn and im considering grabbing a pair of denim
From my experience they change slightly material to material and season to season. The most consistent sizing os on "core" colors. The special washes fit a bit slimmer, not sure if thats related to the dying wash process or what. The cords I had were a bit tighter in the waist. Again may be a factor of just the material and a few washes, denim tends to shrink less.
do 44s fit at all like 93s? i have enough denim + cords, i need a pair of some classic chinos and i want to avoid dickies, because i hate them
44 are wider leg than 93’s. Closer to big bois from what I remember. I never owned them since they were wider when I tried them on.
ah damn. whats your go to chino?

jep, right here!
my black ones are pretty exactly a 32 waist, but i heard some guys here feel like they are sized bigger, mine fit though.
they are pretty long on me too so i'd just try order them TTS, maybe somewherer you can send em back if you don't dig the fit. if you size up they end up being huge on my by the way
hope that helps

The Levi XX Chinos are amazing, but don't last for shit. If they're on sale, I always get a few pairs.

I saw some people mention Polar '44! chino's in here and I can't recommend enough. I have 2 pairs, navy & black. I wear them for work mainly but they're some of the best pants I own. I wouldn't say they're as baggy as big boys, maybe the same as 93's. They're basically a baggier 874 but actually good quality.

Just ordered a pair of 18east ripstop pants and im so hyped. First time Ive been able to find a skate brand that caters to longer legs.
-
I’ve been using baggy pants from Uniqlo, Zara and Beams for a long time and they’re nice. Lately I bought Polars for the first time during a big new year sale. My first skate brand pants. First, the 93 but I wanted to try something baggier and bought the big boy, both dark blue jeans. I wear Adidas Forum mostly so with their tapper, they don’t cover my shoes. If I wore slim shoes maybe they would be covered by the pants or going under my heels, which I hate. My problem is the same that some people said here. I have very long legs and the pants feel too short. They’re baggy, but not as long as I would like. If I want they sit in my shoes and fit nicely I have to sag. For everyday life I don’t care sagging but for skateboarding is not comfortable, specially wearing a belt.
My question is: Do you know some baggy pants with long legs? Maybe Polar 93 jeans of baggy but like 5cm longer. Thank
Edit: I wanted to say thank you properly.

6 foot 4, 33 ish inseam checking in here. They aint cheap but the Carhartt wip og single knee pants Ive found are longer than most big boys and probably my fav pair of pants I own but they aint cheap. Also butter goods sells the santussuo jeans in a 34 inseam.

my two cents:
polar does 34 lenght too but they will still be on the shorter side.
buttergoods santosuossos come in 34 lenght now and should come in plenty long.
also great call on carhartt wip: simple pants, single knee and double knee are pretty long in the regular 32 lenght, so 34 lenght should be real good. also, they look pretty cool if you size them up a bit and can take a beating

Since you've mentioned zara, some women's wide leg pants are long as hell, I think is called Wide leg with the back tag saying mid rise full lenght, they usually made the same colors with the same heavy weight cotton

Thank you very much for your responses! I’ve seen those Carhatt Wips sometimes online but never paid attention. Also I like the Dime Classic Baggy and the Levi’s skate super baggy but all of them are pricey and I don’t want to buy them online without trying on me first. I need to know how I look on them because a bad fit and I look like a monster.
For having an image of me, just imagine an Asian John Fitzgerald but without his tricks. I’m huge tall with long legs and clothes fit me pretty bad

Does anyone in here know of any good all cotton alternatives to dickies 874? Love the dickies cut but not the polyester, not really a fan of carhartt cuts
dickies finally released these. i have wanted 100% cotton 874s for YEARS! i just ordered them so cant comment on quality yet. but theyre called the Chatom pant. essentially a 100% twill 874 with pleating
just received these and hot damn. if you ever wanted essentially just better 874s, these are them. the pleats are classy looking, the material is lightweight and breathable. i feel like these could even be dressed up nicely. def not as hard wearing or durable as the poly blend but for a non skate pant i fuck w these heavy
https://www.dickies.ca/en/pants/chatom-pleated-pants/WPR16.html
more than double the price of 874s as well...
Yes old, I know. But they’re on clearance for $26

have you tried second hand? i just got light wash 93s + cargos basically new for around 50 bucks each. i see a pair of surf cords up on there for 55. its worth it.

Gave the Polar jeans a real hard try but no matter what, just could not get them to work for me. I'm a 33 waist so going up to 34 was my initial inclination but no matter what I couldn't get the waist to shrink. The 92 jeans just never worked for me no matter what. Looked absurdly massive on me, never fit. Tried getting fat and they still didn't fit. Tried the grund jeans in a 32 and those didn't work either for me. Too small and never really broke in. I used to have the Polar 90s jeans and loved those, but the quality isn't just what I like anymore. Got a pair of 550 92 jeans from Levi's for $20 at their outlet and actually have been loving those so far. Baggy but fits in the right areas. Really hoping this year the whole 90s absurd big jean saga is going to end, because I've just stopped buying skate company jeans all together.

did you try sizing down? usually wore a 30 waist but i wear 28 in 93s and they fit spot on like a 29-30 waist. now im swapping my true 30 waist carhartt pants for 29 waist cuz they fit so much nicer when they stretch out and break in vs becoming too big

I sized down to a 32 in the Grund and they were far too tight. Tried the 32 at my local and the waist was unbearably tight. I've just given up on polar jeans all together. They're not flattering to my rear.

ahh i misread. at least levis work. thats something you can bank on always finding. its so hard finding good pants and i feel like skate companies cater to the cosplay side of things nowadays. RVCA american denim does look good though as an alternative to 93/92 whatevers. as a waist size 29 i feel you on being in between the standard. its fucking annoying lol.

I just picked up more Athletic fit tapered jeans from Old Navy for $30 ($40 full retail)
They have 1-2% Spandex, and the rest is cotton.
They aren’t too thick, and not too thin.
I was having problems finding pants that would flex with me, and these are really great for the price, with no weird fit.
(My waist line is bigger than ever, and I needed some more baggy pants.)

@thehogsniper have you tried taking them to a tailor/seamstress? There is one a few doors down from me and she charges like 5 euro to hem pants etc. My mate gave me brand new 93's that were 34*34 and I'm like 30*30, she took in the waist and hemmed the legs and they are my favorite jeans now and cost me under 10 euro lol.

Do some of you not wear belts?
I try not to, they bug me, I hate having stuff in my pocket too. IMO it's 2024 so brands should be able to provide you with the right cut of pant that fits properly. If you have a 32 waist, you should be able to buy a 32 waist, and all the other proportions should just be to your liking. This is why I tend to buy normie brands like GAP and Uniqlo. Dickies I ran no belt because of the weird sizing and high waistedness...it took me a long time to figure it out....

At the moment im in need of some pants that aren’t jeans to skate in. Im thinking of buying some dickies 874’s just because they are in my price range right now. I bought some of the genuine dickies from walmart like a year ago, and they went to shit fairly quickly by shrinking up. Does anyone know if I should get the regular original 874’s or the 874 flex pants? Also will they go to shit quickly like the walmart dickies by shrinking up? If so i might go a size up in the waist.

I wear the 874 flex and they’ve lasted me a long time. I always buy from the dickies website because they offer free shipping & free returns. Always go a size up in the waist on 874s, the waist runs small

Not true
Dickies are mass produced and outsourced to several countries, like Levi’s, and like Levi’s no two pair fit exactly alike. Ordering Dickies without measurements for the exact pant you’re buying is a gamble.

Does anyone know if I should get the regular original 874’s or the 874 flex pants? Also will they go to shit quickly like the walmart dickies by shrinking up? If so i might go a size up in the waist.
I wear the 874 flex and they’ve lasted me a long time. I always buy from the dickies website because they offer free shipping & free returns. Always go a size up in the waist on 874s, the waist runs small
Thanks, I’ll probably take the gamble and grab the flex 874’s in a size or two up, and if it doesn’t work out then I guess i’ll just return them. Pants stress me out >:(

Nothing special about FLEX. Walmart sells those. They’re for fat people, hence Walmart. 2 sizes up on 847 is too much. One size up is good if you want to sag. The waist isn’t really my issue with the fit, it’s the top block/hips seat area that can be off.

Dickies are the Vans of pants.....if they work for you....great...

Anyone else order “Army Green” pants from Theories only to have them arrive almost teal green in color?
Pretty sure you’d be demoted in rank and doing push-ups for calling these Army Green.

Not true
Dickies are mass produced and outsourced to several countries, like Levi’s, and like Levi’s no two pair fit exactly alike. Ordering Dickies without measurements for the exact pant you’re buying is a gamble.
while this is true, it is generally safe advice to size up in 874s. how much you size up is preference. the longer ive been wearing them, the larger the waist ive gotten. and its not bc im gaining weight lol.
i also prefer the regulars to the flex by a long shot

Any particular reason why? Using the search function i’ve seen some others saying the same about preferring the regulars over the flex. I just thought the flex would provide some extra stretch which I thought would be a good thing.

I haven’t worn dickies in years, but when I did I always went up 2 sizes from my regular waste and ironed out the crease for that perfect sag. IMO if you’re wearing them baggy you don’t need any extra stretch.

I was in the army and getting a teal issue pair of SOBs meant you weren’t cleaning the latrines out that week. My grandfather did 3 tours of duty Vietnam era in some Pantone color coded special unit patrol issues and never had a problem with blending into the evergreens of the harsh winter environment. You should be good to go. he-haw!

this is exactly what i do. size up and iron out the crease. and to me the Flex is bullshit. dickies dont stretch or flex in either model, but the flex ones have always faded out in color quicker for me

looking for 5 pocket jeans you can wear true to size that fit as loose as carhartt dungaree loose fit (b11, b13 denim) fit.
workwear seems to be the best bet for me right now… but i want some regular 5 pockets to wear sometimes. everything ive tried is either too slim or over the top.

^you try polar 93's yet?

i wear the b17s, which kinda fit me like some 90s moms jeans/silvertabs ish….they give me a slight feeling of having ‘hips’, not full pixar mom….
but they are super comfortable, flexy, inexpensive

Grabbed a pair of these gramicci pants for a significant discount from the Premier sale. They check a lot of boxes…baggy fit, elastic waist, built in hiker belt, 100% cotton, and gusseted crotch. Very similar fit to Theories Stamp Lounge Pants.

How's the fit on the Spitfire denim? Is it comparable to Big Boys? The shorter inseam and design on the back pocket are making it hard for me to ignore these.

well so at a Size LARGE on the spitfire says the leg opening is like 18" or 20".....magenta pants has 20- 22" in a size LARGE and those look tapered as hell, so nowhere near big boy territory i guess. Way better maybe since i do not like the big leg opening on the big boys

Probably not popular and not for those that want a TJ Rogers 'baggy' fit or want to spend $100+ on [polar] jeans for skating...but the 'Signature' line by Levis 'Gold Label Men's Relaxed Fit Flex Jeans' are much baggier than 'regular' fit and are stretch...for under $30 usually.
You have to look under Big and Tall (even tho there are normal sizes as well).
https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/EDE04056-9BE0-4A76-9EFC-122D644A082E?ingress=2&visitId=8d5d1eaf-d8e7-4267-9353-ced8b84afe29&ref_=ast_bln
If you don't like the 'wide' look at your shins that non tapered pants give off you can try the Athletic Fit Jeans from the same 'signature' line - slightly more tapered but stack better below the knee.
https://www.amazon.com/Signature-Levi-Strauss-Gold-Label/dp/B087SQWXF8?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1&psc=1
Don't judge based off the athletic fit pictures, they are much bagger than the images suggest - I've done a lot of 'try before you buy' jeans off there and these fit the bill for me.

Hello guys! Im looking for some Summer pants, loose fit. In my Town Summer Is very hot, so im looking for some lightweight pants. Do you guys have any advice? I do have a pair of surf Polar pants which are pretty good, i Will buy another pair probably, but do you have any cheaper advice? Maybe some dickies? What model Is good? Or any other brand?
I do have 32/30 on 93's and M on surf pants (i would try L on surf pant but no shops carry them in my Town). Thank you!

Vans Range Baggy Tapered
It’s obviously not as good quality but retails for half the price. I had a pair that I got for around $25. You can get them for $20-40 during sales.

Good, but cords 93's are way too heavy for Summer in my place! Where are you from? If you are not from Europe i think could be pretty expensive the shipping to Italy!

What size do you get? I fit okay in 93's 32/30, and surf size M Is okay but i'd prefere a Little bit more room in my waist.

I wear XL both Surf Pants and the Vans Range Baggy Tapered, but I prefer that my pants be somewhat snug around the waist. Otherwise, I have to frequently pull my pants up.
If you want more room in the waist, get Large: 33-34”.

Anyone know if Polar has stopped making Surf Pants? Haven’t seen any out in a while, and they’re pretty much my favourite pants. Would love to see them in some new colours and fabrics. I tried on the Vans Range ones and they fit me like shit (too long, not enough taper, just don’t feel like there’s a shape to them besides ‘big’) and feel kinda cheap.

The lastest drop has one pair in black and one pair in chocolate (brown). Both have (white) contrast stitching. I’ve seen them on shops’ websites.

Following up on this but did they change their sizing recently? Just got a pair of black 93's from their most recent drop in the same size as my standard blue ones and the waist is much more snug. I'm afraid if I exchange them for a size up they might be too baggy so idk
