What's your normal waist size?

Gimme, I am a 33" in everything else: PBJ, Skulls and Eternal, even though the tag size may vary I always go for the size that actually measures 33". The BIG size chart says 31's measure 33 waist but they don't. I love the fit otherwise. I also asked for them to hem to 36 but they still measure 38.:(

Sounds like you should go for a 32...every pair of sam's that I have has been tight when I received them (presoak), and then a bit moreso after getting wet...but they always stretch out. Not sure why they weren't hemmed...but that may be a good thing because you can probably send them back now. Ask Gordon for some sizing advice for that model too.

I have e-mailed Gordon with a view to an exchange. He said that they had measured the 31s and they came up as 33, but mine are nowhere near. I have asked him to reserve either a 32 or 33 depending on the actual waist measurement. I can't wait to get the right size as I love the denim.:o

Take a look at the method they use for measuring on their website...that may point out how they end up with a different number.

They'll probably stretch. I couldn't get my 5000's done up at first...as with any sams for that matter. What's your normal waist size?

measured about a 31.5.....i wear a pair of 30 imperial kings and they fit perfect after a little stretch. i dont wear a belt so it might be okay. hope so.....

Well, I wore a 30 in Dukes, and a 29 in 5000's (although they're blue...but I'm pretty sure they're the same). I think you'll be fine. ;)

I got my bk's smaller than I have ever gotten dungarees before and they were hard to button up after two soaks. The thigh area is what got me, though. The waist will likely stretch a bit, but how do you feel about the thigh area? Mine didn't stretch too much in the thigh.
