Loose Fit Pants

[Jean-Ralphio Zaperstein]

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

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

[close]

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.

[close]

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

[close]

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

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

Does anyone else have to size up for Carhartt pants?
Was looking at the "flex" and don't know if I should go tts...

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.

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

[close]

How's the sizing in these and which size did you go for? Deciding between a Large and XL

[close]

Technically i should probably wear 32 or 33 but usually buy 34, with a 30 leg. In these i bought Large.

[close]

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!

[close]

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.

[close]

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

[close]

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

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?

[close]

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...

[Mr. Kamikazi]

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.

[sadnocomply]

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.

[Crap]

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.

[Velcro Wallet]

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.

[Urtripping]

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

[Velcro Wallet]

^^^ man they look perfect. Those NB’s look awesome! I’m not up on the numbers.. what are they???

[Urtripping]

They're 440 lows in the best colorway that's come out, imo... Black and white/grey with red touches and gum bottoms. You can still find em on Parade World, I think!

Those are nice.

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.

[Velcro Wallet]

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.

[Velcro Wallet]

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.

[Velcro Wallet]

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:(

[Velcro Wallet]

Oh, and these SB trackies are baggy as and if it wasn’t for the terrible writing on the side you would swear they were khakis They were $30 at my outlet. Suuupppper good to skate in.
