Nudie's Olas vs. Ralfs

danielk50 · #1 (**permalink**) 02-28-2007, 04:55 PM

I ordered a pair of 33x34 Regular Ralfs off eBay and received a pair of Bootcut Ola's in a 33x34 and am now unable to get ahold of the seller. The jeans are real, but they are too small (I wear a 33 in Rock&Republic and TR, a 32 in Diesel) and I was wondering if the regular ralfs of the same size would fit me better, it's mostly because of my soccer thighs, or if I would need to size up when I do get a pair.

Oh, anyone wanna trade? :]

My man, you need to provide more information (which Ralf's). Dry or Dry Selvage Ralfs should be bought one size down (e.g. if you are a true 32 waist, buy a 31) because they stretch at least a full size within weeks of wear. Washed Ralfs usually measure one size smaller than tagged, so buy up one size. Also, the Ola is a much smaller fit than the Ralf-- lower rise and smaller in the thigh. Anything Nudie sells well on ebay if you post it properly.

If you have any additional questions about Nudie Jeans please call or e-mail me at:

Good luck,

Hey... ya, the reason I posted them in the others section is because they weren't dry, but my post got moved in here... The Ola's were the "super used" wash, and I will be selling them as soon as I get a chance. If a 33x34 in the bootcut Ola was a little too small how would a 33x34 ralf fit if I was to buy a dry pair? Would you suggest going down to a 32 waist to make up for the stretching... I don't wear my jeans too tight, but I do like form fitting jeans, I'll post a pic if I get a chance this afternoon. Thanks...

You might actually need a smaller regular ralf if it is raw.
