Fit, wear and care
  1. Order your usual waist. It should feel snug the first time you put it on.
  2. It relaxes about half a size with wear, so do not size up to get comfortable on day one.
  3. It is pre-washed and does not shrink to speak of.
  4. Hemming is free on request through the repairs page. A hemmed pair is final sale, so wear it in before you decide.
  5. Wash inside out, cold, and hang it to dry. Heat wears out the elastane.
  • Wash knitwear cold, by hand or on the wool cycle, and always dry it flat
  • Wash denim rarely, inside out and cold, and hang it to dry
  • Never tumble-dry wool, cashmere blends or waxed cotton
  • Re-wax waxed jackets once a season and never machine-wash or dry-clean them

Questions

Asked about Slim Taper Stretch Jean

How does it fit?

Slim through the thigh and tapered below the knee, but not skinny. It is snug at first and relaxes about half a size with wear.

Should I size up?

No. A snug first try is the right fit. Sized up, it will be loose within a couple of weeks.

Will it shrink?

It is pre-washed, so there is none to speak of.

I have bigger thighs.

The Straight Selvedge in One Wash has more room through the thigh at the same waist. This one is cut for slimmer builds.

Which inseam?

30, 32 or 34. Hemming is free on request once you have worn the pair in, and a hemmed pair is final sale.

  1. Dorian F.

    Verified buyer

    Dark Rinse · 5'10", usually W31, bought W31: snug, then right

    Trust the snug fit

    They felt a size small on day one. A week later they are exactly right.

  2. Quentin A.

    Verified buyer

    Washed Black · 5'9", usually W30, bought W30: relaxed after a week

    Tapered but not skinny

    Room for my calves, narrow at the ankle. I cycle and these work.

  3. Mateus R.

    Verified buyer

    Dark Rinse · 5'11", usually W33, bought W33: tight in the thigh

    Tight on athletic thighs

    Waist is right, thighs are tight even after they relaxed. They do say it is for slimmer builds. I moved to the Straight.

  4. Ezra N.

    Verified buyer

    Dark Rinse · 6'0", usually W32, bought W32: right

    Stretch that comes back

    No baggy knees at the end of the day.

  5. Leander S.

    Verified buyer

    Washed Black · 5'8", usually W29, bought W29: right

    All-day office jean

    Dark enough for work, comfortable enough for a flight.

  6. Roland B.

    Verified buyer

    Dark Rinse · 6'1", usually W34, bought W34 after an exchange: do not size up

    Sized up and regretted it

    I went up to a 35... which they do not make, so I took a 36 from my 34. Too loose after two weeks. Exchanged for the 34.

  7. Casimir T.

    Verified buyer

    Washed Black · 5'10", usually W32, bought W32: right

    Washed Black stays black

    Six months of cold washes and it has not gone gray.

  8. Arlo G.

    Verified buyer

    Dark Rinse · 6'4", usually W32, bought W32: right, long enough

    34 inseam for long legs

    Finally a slim jean that reaches my shoes.
