Size down. You will be happier. I just sold my medium clay to get a size small. True to size is really baggy imo

and i bought the medium clay because I'm normally a large and the L was too baggy on me. haha

Anyone have experience with the Cast denim for JE? I just got a pair of the Cast, Skinny-Fit distressed jeans. They fit me really well on the initial fit, but I'm worried the waist will stretch out into the dreaded "diaper ass."

Thoughts?

size down to whatever size you can barely slip them on and button it.

For those that have DOVE, is washed clay quite similar in person? (For those that have both). Looking for a true cream colour and dove seems to be the closest but unfortunately was only offered in one piece.

Anyone have any suggestions for other brands of jeans? I love the new jeans JE put out, but they're out of my price range. Currently mostly wear acne, but they don't offer the same style and washes that JE does.

Acne Thins are right up there with JE for me. I love the carbon wash. It's from this season.

My Friend recommended those to me. Checked them out and imo they wash looks just like the used cash. Are they more gray in person? Was looking for something similar to the zincs.
Also heard good thing about rag and bone fit 1

Kind of similar to used cash but a bit darker I believe. Yes I've hard very good things about rag and bone fit 1 as well but haven't tried them yet personally

Does anybody size down from a 36" to a 34" in JE denim since there's no 35"?
36 fits comfortably

Does anybody know why the oversized LS crewneck pullover (clay) looks like a different colour than the oversized SS crew (clay)? - per the model photos on JE.com?

Both of these pieces are washed - the LS crewneck looks like it's very close to the true clay colour that we see in the tees etc. The SS crew looks almost like plaster?

These are supposed to be the same colours and have gone through the wash process so I'm not sure why the difference, but I think I would prefer if the SS crew looked more like clay and less like plaster.

Posted a pic last week in the acne thin carbon I'll post again and a comparison of zincs vs acne carbon below:

I also have the rag and bone type 1s, IMO the type 1s are a thinner material than JE or Acne. The type 1 had more room in the top block and thighs than the acne. I think they would prob work better if you have athletic thighs and want a very tapered cut. They are more of a carrot cut on me. The acne are skinny though out with a very small top block. I think JE has the best top block but they can stretch a ton. I think JE has the best cut overall because it's more versatile. The acnes are awesome but are more of that rocker/slp look.
