Apparently you're supposed to get in a hot shower with them on and stretch them to hell.

the general consensus about Japanese denim is that they don't stretch much

and shouldn't you be working on your slings & stones?

i love those, even went looking for one for my girlfriend

I would only factor in as much as 1" (around) in stretch for a brand new pair.

iluvshopin and tonepone both have a pair of the women's cut, so they might be good ones to ask.

And StrongerThanAll, I have a pair of slim bootcuts in a size 3 (fits about a 25) that I'm looking to get rid of if you're still looking. They're too small and I'm scared to try to stretch them.

Yeah I wore them to a lake today, they got one hell of a wear today! I'm gonna start rotating these two pairs, since my S&S have finally begun to fade!

1" all around would probably allow me to actually get them over my butt, I hope they stretch quick!

If you can't get them on unbuttoned, I am doubting they will end up fitting at all.

Did you call them? It helps a lot because they're really helpful.

Do the measurements of the jeans you have match up with BiG's measurements? What measured waist size do you usually get?

^They're actually a size 2 but I still think they'd fit a 25. It seems that someone might be interested in them but get in touch with me later if you're still looking for a pair.

You have a lucky girlfriend. Note to self: must find boyfriend to buy me jeans.

My samurais were so tight when I purchased then that I couldn't button up the top two buttons and now after 6 weeks of weak post-wash I can take them off without undoing them.

I've heard PBJs can stretch a TON when they're wet

If you cant get them over your butt, I think they might just be too small. If you can get them up but can't button them... then there might be hope

They come up my butt, but theres still space for it to come up more, if that makes sense. The thighs are sooo slim! I've wriggled in them some and I can get them mostly up but can't button them!

I'm hoping

those will stretch. The tricks:

1) Wet the waistband. Not just moisten. Like dunk the hip area into the tub.

2) Pull them on while the waistband is wet

3) Lay down when you're buttoning them up.

4) Wear them wet for a few hours until they dry.

Believe me they will stretch out to fit you. Those look AMAZING.

It looks like you got the women's slim flare, which is stretch denim and one wash. If those are just the women's slim, then it's the same thing. Typically you should go true to size or size up 1 with PBJs as they run tight.

What a beautiful fit- give them a little more wear and these should fit like a glove buttoned up. What size did you get?
