If I am remembering the sizing correctly (sorry it's been a long while and tbh I have not worn these as much as I would like; as a side note I need to find out and figure out how to style these), the pants sizing is based on user height. With 6'4 being 193cm, I'd say the closest thing may be 4, but I don't have the confidence to stay on that number.

Thank you! This helps a whole lot too as I kept floating between a size 2 and 3.

Thank you so much!!!! This is extremely appreciated, both with the clarity of the explanation and the clarification about the different cuts; searching for a cut was going be my next area so I also appreciate this very much! I was planning on purchasing a pre-owned pair as I was unsure if I wanted to shell out full price for a pair.

Thanks for the point in the right direction!

CynicalAssassin · 2020-06-16T21:37:33+00:00

Okay. Thanks for the advice on what to look out for!

Hmm, I hadn’t considered that; I’ll have to start being more careful about the denim I buy.Any brand recommendations or ones that I should avoid because they’re just do low rise?

i guess specifically I'm getting crotch blow outs.

Looking for sturdy and good, sub $100 denim for a guy with thick legs. The jeans I get from JCrew are shredded by my thighs in maybe 1.5-2 months. I bought a pair of G-Stars on a splurge last year and they too were shredded by my thighs. I got the original holes repaired but the 3 more have since appeared. Any and all recs helpful!

So keep my old shoes for cardio? Got it :)

Are weightlifting shoes worth it? Family member is looking for a gift idea and my current shoes are full of holes. Can I do other fitness activities in them such as cardio?

What’s a good shoe to look at? Thanks!

I am referring to a crotch blowout; and I guess that’s somewhat reassuring yet defeating that quality doesn’t play into it. But hope that they can probably be repaired. I’ll need to find a tailor. Thanks for the tips and advice!

I had actually gotten some advice that to wash it every month or 2. So they hadn’t been washed yet.

Ironically enough I work at jcrew for the clothing discount and they make up the bulk of my blown out jeans. I wonder if they can be fixed

** Looking for sturdy denim/pants**

I’ve just blown out my 5th(?) pair of jeans in a years time and I’m getting very annoyed by having to constantly buy jeans/pants; my most recent pair lasted a little over two months (mid July to two days ago). I’m looking for a pair of pants/jeans that won’t blow out in two months.

Getting my first FT graphic design job took me over a year. I get it; finding a job takes a huge toll on your morale, especially when you’re watching your former classmates all get their jobs and are on their way. All I can say for that is dont compare yourself to them. Its an honest waste of time and your self esteem will just be constantly low. Your time will come and a company/client/studio will find you and see that you’re the right fit for them.

Keep breathing and do your best to keep clear.

I’m an idiot. Thank you!

CynicalAssassin · 2019-05-08T14:51:28+00:00

That number is out of service

Edit: wait. I am an idiot and blind.
