bradl they are a straight leg original fit. They Sit at waist, Rise is 11 1/4". If you do get a pair then size up. They Will shrink approximately 10 percent; size up 1" if waist is between 27"- 36", size up 2" if waist is between 38"- 48". Increase length by 3".

I thought since I posted my Levi Shrink to fits I would also post my Crate Hamilton Selvage jeans. So here they are at around 4 months. I gave up on these since I really enjoy breaking in my Levi Shrink to Fits. I could go back to them if they stretch, but right now they are too tight.

Here are my worn in Levi Shrink to fits about 4 1/2 months almost every day wear next to my brand new Levi Shrink to fits. My new Levis are soaking as I speak.

^Nice...I bought a pair of the Hamilton in twill, but I don't think they'll ever get to looking like that. How do u like the fit on CRATE?

Thanks. Yeah I really like them they are fading well. The fit is good except for the fact that they are real tight right now. I might run a little in them to loosen them up. How long have you had yours? Post some pictures if you don't mind.

^Yeah the fit is pretty exceptional IMO. I bought my Hamiltons from Revolve a little less than a year ago but I found that they were way too tight in size 32. And for some odd reason they only had sizes 30, 32, and 34 (and this is when they were newly stocked!). I'm pretty sure that a 33 would have fit me right on, but I had to settle for a 34 in the end.

I don't wear mine as often as I do most of my denim because I feel they're more of a "dressy" chino pant (they're jet black twill). However, if I wear them sometime soon I'll try and post pics. The only other pants I have by CRATE are their Sally jean in charcoal black. They're a slim straight leg and fit really well.

I had a friends camera so I figured I'd contribute. Size 28 APC New Standard roughly 6 1/2 months with no washes or soaks.



I'm trying to buy a new pair of Diors asap before I wash them, but I can't decide if I want the 21cm or 19cm, oh and I have no idea what my size is.....awesome.

I dids, I dids Took them out as soon as I got them because I didnt want to patches of darker material later on :P. They are definitely hard to fade, tho thats how I want it If they fade I'll need another to fill in the blank between 'darker than washed and lighter than black black' Tho they are are hard to fade, I find they do fade. The werid blotch on the bottom of that leg is from when I tuck them into boots.

Yeah, those have been repaired in the crotch. They didn't rip, but they definitely were on their way there so I had them patched up.
