I tried to work on the stacking on these jeans, can anyone help me out with sizing advice? Are they too small? Would going up a size be better or is the cut just not for me?

Also I sized so I can button up but I get some pulling. Will this go away after stretching?

Unless they feel uncomfortable I think the size looks ok. They aren't super tight throughout and they will stretch a bit. A size up might be too loose later.

Thanks, they're not uncomfortable at all. They're rag and bone fit 1 so I think they're a little thinner than JE fabric wise. Will the pulling at the crotch go away? Or am I just being OCD as most people probably wouldn't even see it.

I don't know how much those stretch since I don't own that brand. Generally you get about half and inch at least.

To get good stacks the material has to be thicker. But if it's really thin then tapering them from the knee down so they are a little bit tighter should help with stacking.

Rag and Bone fit 1 fit very different from fabric to fabric. Are those the south gate wash? If so, those also have a special fabric composition. Rag and bone black denim is far more forgiving than any other wash, and as a big dude with pretty similar size legs, the only wash I can't fit in fit 1.

Watching a Complex video on the FW17 gear, glad to see that the Stadium jacket is likely making a return. Still salty about missing out on the Reverse terry one from the Shadow collection and the GOAT black one from FW 15.

Also, shoutout @MIKE_JE

I have the reverse terry, it's cool but it's not amazing. Just sits in my closet honestly.

Also if you like that JE stadium jacket, golden bear makes a very similar one.
