Ordered a size 32 (waist) as this is a comfortable fit for me: Do these shrink as much as my Levis 501/1933style? Cannot wear a 31 any longer as this Levis became a near 28 ...
RupertVonHentzauThe denim is sanforized. You can expect the waist to open up to 1 inch during break in and they will shrink up to this much during washing. The best course of action is to measure your waist and refer to the size chart. Generally a size 35 measurement is actually a size 33 and 36 a 34.
That is actual waist measurement to their size chart.
Hope this helps!
