| | | RRDS on the way!
My first pair of Regular Ralf dry selvage are on the way! Getting shipped from Europe so I might not get them for a couple of weeks but I'll post pics when I get them in. |

| | | Ya, I know, I ordered a 33, which is my true size, but I don't wear them tight and I don't think'd like the 32. Luckily it's a relative of mine from Sweden who purchased them so all I'm out is the shipping, and a couple more grueling weeks of waiting, if I need a smaller size... I guess I'll see here shortly! |

| | | 33 is the true size of where it sits? or your waist? |

| | | I'm not sure... I guess I shouldn't say true size but more like "the size I wear in most jeans" I had a 33 waist bootcut ola (not dry) and the waist and everything was WAY too small for what I like, so I thought I'd try these out and if they seem like I could go one size smaller when I get them, send them back. |

| | | yeah BO runs small, and nudie washed denim runs even smaller than dry. Bad combo!
Anyways, I wear 28 usually, and dry RR I would wear probably 27-28, so I hope those work out. |

| | | Ya, I guess only time will tell, I'll make sure to post pics when I get them and see what you guys think sizing wise since you guys have gone through the stretching thing with them and I haven't! |

| | | no!!!! every day I sit and wait for the mail to come, only to get pissed when they don't show :]
They are being shipped from Europe though so I guess I should be patient. My card was charged the 14th though, so HOPEFULLY any day now! In the time I've been waiting I've purchased two new pairs of jeans already which is probably stupid since I want to give these as much use as possible.
I'll make sure to post pics AS SOON as I get them! |

| | | Where did you get them? kitchener? If you didn't request express shipping then it would take a month to get here instead of 10.

| | received them in the mail yesterday! I'm glad I ordered the 33, even with some stretching the 32 would have been too tight I'm afraid... Suppppper stiff, feel kinda weird but I know that'll wear off soon and I'm excited to get the process started!   |

| | | ya, after wearing them for a day I wish the legs were smaller with the same waist, maybe Bootcut Ola, I just couldn't have gone down an inch in the waist, these are already pretty tight, I guess I just need to start going to the gym! It'll take a lot more to wear these since they aren't tight so I'll probably go a year before I wash them... hopefully I can still do something with them though... I love the jeans. |
