WANTED - 17.5cm, size 29 washed dior denim

Thread Starter 

I'm trying to find a size 29 in the 17.5cm cut.  I'm interested in a lot of washes although I am not looking for anything with a waxed coating at the moment.  I'm definitely going for a skinny fit and given that I have long chicken legs, I need the hem to measure anywhere between 6.25in and 6.5in.  There's probably a little more wiggle room than that, but it's a place to start.  Waist measurement needs to be between 15.5in and 16in aligned, but again, probably some room to bend on that depending upon the other measurements of the jean.

 

Currently I have only one pair of Dior's, mij raws, which are far too tight on me.  Just looking to start a collection with a pair that fit me right, so any input or suggestion would be fantastic.

What size are your raws?  29 seems to be the most popular Dior size in the washes, so you should be in luck in a little while.  Obviously, with long chicken legs Diors will be perfect for you.

The raws I have - which I'm going to try and sell soon, if anyone is interested - are size 26 from 2005.  I did a lot of research and everything back then said to size down 2 from your true size, which is what I did.  Definitely not a good idea in my case.  Even with some wear to try and stretch them out, they were always extremely uncomfortable.  They've been sitting in my closet for years now and when I gave them another try recently, there was just no way.

Yeah, I'm definitely on the lookout for both of those washes.  I just bought some under my track drill, hopefully they'll be here by thursday and I'll post some pics.

General consensus is to size down one from your normal DH size.  So I go with 28 in raws and 29 in washes.  I suppose some people might claim size down two but I was only able to button two buttons in 27, which seems a little extreme to me.
