@schraiber Please follow this link Measuring Bottoms to confirm your measurements.

Does the duck stretch at all? I think I remember that the answer is no. But I just want to double check with the folks who have experience. Just eyeing up my size for tomorrow

[popvulture]

@Fadez a little but not as much as denim, as I understand it.

[schraiber]

@goosehd yup that's what I did! See attached picture.

@Fadez it’s very negligible. I’ve had mine for a few years now and haven’t noticed much stretch. I’d say 1/4 inch if even that.

[DeeDee85]

@Fadez I bought my 555 ducks a couple of weeks ago and they were very tight in the waist to start with. Two weeks in they are still tight but not uncomfortable, they have loosened up a small amount. Have to say I agree with @popvulture they stretch a little, but not as much as denim.

I'll be going for my ideal post-stretch 21oz 888 cut denim waist (and thigh) measurement on this since they apparently wont stretch, but will soften up :hand_with_index_and_middle_fingers_crossed:

Just to confuse things, I definitely got stretch out of mine. I have a tag 33 which are a comfy 34+ inches actually. Can't remember what the size chart said a 33 should have been when I purchased, but it definitely wasn't that big.

[cityofdelusion]

Ah, finally. Order placed.

[Karol]

@cityofdelusion congratulations! same here

[EdH]

@SonnyTheElder - in case you are not watching this thread. There's been a restock and I recall you were interested.

[cityofdelusion]

@Karol Likewise! We were two of the "crazy" ones that have been stalking this restock for a while now it seems...

[WhiskeySandwich]

Congrats @cityofdelusion

Goes well with black leather

[Cents or Non Cents]

I've been waiting for the restock for some time, so I got myself a 36 today. I hope I get them before the weekend here in Los Angeles.

[SonnyTheElder]

@EdH Thank you sir, I appreciate the heads up!

Like a lot of folks here, I've been patiently awaiting this one but did a last minute audible and got the 634 version. I have a couple of 888s and 633s but this will be my first 634, I hope it works!

[cityofdelusion]

@weftyarn Ha! looking forward to it!

[schraiber]

Argh I've been wanting these for so long but just so unsure now. The size that's best for my waist has just a bit too narrow of hem openings for my taste. Maybe it's worth sizing up and getting the waist taken in at a tailor?
