A lot of people talk about sizing down and that these jeans will stretch but I disagree. I went true to size or even upsize for my experience as these will shrink after washing.
I’m personally looking for a slightly more relaxed, but still slim-ish and tapered. If you are actually skinny then consider getting the skinny or super guy but if you’re average size (and long over skinny jeans like me) these give you more room in the top box to breathe.
I’m exactly average height at 5’10” and I take them in to get hemmed by about 2” and I still have plenty left to cuff to show off that sweet selvedge.
Love the stiff, raw denim feel, high quality and that these are made in Montreal, Canada.
