Never done that method but might have to resort to extreme measures on these.

Shit.

I've only recently got my sizing strategy down right so that I get a waist that fits after stretch without a belt. And with the measurements available and a pair of rigid 50s sized perfectly at 33, I thought 33 rigid was going to be spot on too. But early reports suggest that is definitely not going to be the case.

Ah well, will see on Monday....

I went on the list early on, but just confirming my order - I went for 33 raw in the jeans (same as my 50s, which post-stretch fit perfectly without a belt) and 42 in the jacket.

Different people have different built/muscle mass/bone width etc. weight and height can’t really reflect on sizing in my opinion. I am 184cm and I weigh 82 kg and will need size 33 according to the chart. 

Sure, I recognize that people's builds are different, but weight and height ratio does say something. A 34"+ waist with that height / weight ratio looks strange to me. But what everyone else is saying about their proposed size is sounding plausible so I guess I'll go with the 33.

For raw, do we give desired inseam after shrink or before?

I'm in (from UK).

33 in 50s is perfect for me, but I'm a bit puzzled as to the model's sizing. By my reckoning a 183cm man who weighs 76kg is pretty skinny. And yet the page says he wears 34 OW and they're even a bit tight.

Anyone else find that a bit odd?
