This kind of comfortable-yet-tapered cut is rare, and this one fits well. The waist is 2 1/4˝ larger than the size, which is really large (and certainly a different match than Tellason’s other fits), but I actually found it to be appropriate. At first it seemed ridiculous because, although 32 seems to be my normal size raw denim size, these were so large that I could take them off with all of the buttons buttoned and without any fabric stretching. I think most raw denim wearers will size for tightness when standing; but after too many experiences of having to throw away raw denim after exercising more or otherwise gaining (only a little) weight, I decided to change my approach and size for tightness when sitting. Already, I can tell that these will fit great, even if they’ll need a belt. I have to deduct one star for what seems to be a manufacturing error. The leg opening is definitely larger than it's supposed to be—about 17˝, when it it should be 16.25˝. I was set to ask about it, but because the photo I was able to take only shows the flat measurement being slightly larger than 8.25˝ (held taut with both hands, it comes out to 8.5˝), and because I had already removed the tag, I decided to let it go.
