Loose Fit Pants

[LebowskisRug]

Never had a pair of 550 or 560 but my favorite relaxed tapered Levi's to skate are the 541's Athletic Fit, two sizes up

What is the leg opening measurement on those?

[Vintagebody]

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.

[LebowskisRug]

Got it. I've got some 550, which I have thought about getting tapered but it's pricier than I expected.

im lookin to get some 93's, but dont wanna scroll this thread, can someone let me know if i should size up or down from my true waist size?

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

I have tons of 93s (jeans, pants, cords) all in my true size of a 32. Best pant.

The amount of taper on Huf Cromers is silly.

The waist size is misleading too. The 32’’ waist is comparable to size 38 shrunk Levi’s

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

Anyone ever try out the Quasi Warren pants? Need to find a pair of brown chinos that aren’t a poly blend

[LebowskisRug]

I'm also interested in the Quasi 102 Jean but they look quite short.

[rikki]

Do the Dickies Thomasville jeans count as loose fit? Big fan of them.

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. 

[mrselfdestruct]

i like old tommy pants, the ben davis gorilla cut and sum ccs pants. cheap and pretty durable.

For the Huf Cromer havers - what's your recommendation on the waist size? I'm usually rocking a 30 in Carhartt WIP pants.

I ordered a 32 and they fit more like a 33/34.

And 34" was somewhere between 35" and 36".

Carhartt WIP runs a bit large so 30" in Cromers would hopefully fit just fine.

Anyone know what pants Chico is wearing ?

Anyone got know of any light pants like Polar surf pants but with belt loops? Very temped to get some sewn on. Ideally four deep pockets also.

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.
