My husband says that I am being dramatic, and that they look a "little" tight, but not sausage style.
I don't understand because I have a couple pairs of 100% cotton size 29 which fit perfect. My dark havana A's are size 30, and they fit perfect, but these don't. Since these are 100% cotton there isn't much chance of them streching is there? |
havs run REALLY small...and hav a's run TTS.
try wearing them wet...you could probably get them enough depending on how tight they really are.
For sale: SFAM Fiji Mia Size 27, will trade for straight leg/tapered jeans in a tts 25/26.

Ditto . . . or I know others have used a spray bottle with water in it to spritz just the parts they wanted to stretch out. Good luck and I hope one of these methods works out for you!

OHHH the same thing happened to my with my Havanas......I did what Linds said to do....sprayed on water to the parts where I felt I needed them to get stretched out...for me it was my booty and the waist a little...anywho I wore them around my house for the day...it was a little uncomfortable! but it was worth it it worked like a charm...now they fir great!!.....just DO NOT PUT THEM IN THE DRYER EVER!!!

Panamas definitely run small. They are a lot tighter than my other rigids, the Havanas and Havana2 A-pockets.
Totally banned from jeans! (except maybe sz 25 7FAM Manchester Crystal Sigs...)

Panamas are tight, but IMO the Havanas are tighter. I think I may size up on my Havanas.

Our body constitutions must differ then. Cause I could definitely have sized up for the Panamas instead of strecthing them out.

I'm glad you found some Nakitas and I'm sure you'll have luck selling those in the HonestMall if you decide to.

I bought them off eBay, and pm'd 2 HFers for authentication. Would it be bad form to reuse the pics from the ebay auction or should I retake my own? |
I don't see anything wrong withn using the pics from the auction...because you actually own the jeans.... and I remember them...very real

I really appreciate all of the tips, but I didn't want to risk streching them out, then having them still be too tight. I wouldn't feel right trying to sell them in Honest Mall or on eBay if I had tweaked them.
