Could you comment on how much to size down on the Elephant #2 22oz? I have to order them online and do no have the luxury of trying them on.

I sized one down.

Anyone know a method of stretching out the front pockets? Its a little embarrassing when it takes me a good 10 tries to get my phone in my pocket sitting down on the train haha.

I found that keeping your hands in your pockets as long as you can stand it helps. As soon as you have a little bit of room, sleep with your hands in your pocket. A few nights of that and my pockets feel quite a bit better and less awkward. (That's working with elephant 2's)

sell this? will there be anyone willing to wear my pair? its been a month.. tried size 30, kinda loose. im only 5' 8" with 132 pounds..

will it stretch more?

That's exactly how mine looked during the first month. They do stretch out, the thighs take a little while to stretch though. Just wear them while you sleep or something if you're trying to stretch them faster.

just got my e2's. they are sick but i'm having a helluva time trying to button them. my thumbs are raped right now. I can't even do it with the jeans off, it's like the size of the hole is too small with the stiffness of the denim to fit the buttons through. was everyone's like this at first?

I bled...no joke.

I would get a 29 if I were you.

I'm a 29 in N&F, 28-29 in APC NS...if you're 1-2 sizes bigger than me..

I would get a 30 for fitted, 31 for a less fitted fit.

Are those the tapered unbranded? I ordered a pair today in a 31 today from Urban Outfitters. I usually wear a 30 in weird guys and I want these to fit looser.

Anyone know how I'll do on these? I looked at the measurements on blue owl and it looked like that might work.

I ordered a pair of 30s in the slim straight a few weeks ago and i could barely get them over my thighs, I could tell I would have hated the fit on anything bigger too.

I did exactly that, 29 in N&F, and 30 in unbranded 201's. The 201's (comparing both after breaking 'em in) fit looser in the thigh with a slightly wider taper which I assume is what you're looking for.

I recommend sizing up too. They will stretch but the rise is low enough that they wont fall off you or sag a ridiculous amount. I kept mine at 29 when I shouldve sized up one and I regret it... because it looks like i have

...jeggins...

do these need an initial soak to get shrinkage out?

They're sanforized, so no, it's not necessary.

yes, probably TTS. I went TTS and they haven't stretched much. If he is on the skinny side, I might suggest sizing down one.

Agreed. Mine started out just barely on the tight size but have now stretched just under one waist size after two weeks.
