Is it okay to go down 1 size for PBJs?

I'm looking at xx007 and xx011


It's generally recommended to size down 1 from your true waist measurement on PBJs, they tend to run a little bit big in the waist. They also stretch a lot, too. Some people even recommend sizing down 2 if your thighs are slim enough.

if your looking to get xx-011 size down 1 or 2, mine are pretty stretched out now. (basically 5-6 months constant wear)

6 1/2 months of nearly everyday wear with one cold soak.
been contemplating on a wash recently, but i'm tryna hold out until there are more prominent fades on whiskers & combs. that's the 005 model btw.

^ Holy shit those are dope cool. Inspires me to cop a pair of these, couple of questions for you owners...
I normally wear size 30x30 jeans (I'm about 5'6-5'7, 125 pounds). If I'm looking for something slim but not too tight in the thighs, should I go for tts XX-005 or size down 1 on a pair of XX-003s? Suggestions?
Oh and how much does the inseam shrink after a soak? If I order off BiG I was thinking about getting them hemmed to a 35 or 36.

Just bought some XX-005s true to size(31) I still have tiny space and it's comfortable on me. How should I soak them? Hot or cold?

If you don't want the overall fit to change, you'll have to soak them cold and keep all of their washes cold. If you feel that you have room for shrinkage, then go ahead and soak them hot.

You should probably go with either a 28 or a 29, depending on how tight you want them to fit. personally, I would probably go with the 29 in your situation.
