Denim size question - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

Should you buy denim one size smaller then your actual size? Recently I have noticed that most of my denim after a while starts to fit a little loose.

Most of my friends tell me to buy one size smaller then my actual, but that is so uncomfortable, but its uncomfortable wearing denim too big or loose :confused: What should I do? What do you do?

I think you just need to wash your pants. All denim after you wear it several times gets loose, but after you wash it and stick in the dryer about 1 maybe 1 1/2 they tighten back up. Try that first.

I usually buy jeans one size smaller then my actual size (especially with stretch denim). Just because after a few wears they usually loosen up but if you want to shrink your jeans then toss then in the wash and dryer (high temp).

I always buy them one size bigger because they shrink after a couple washes

what's tht supposed to mean??? after a few times you wear your jeans they get loose???
I only wear my jeans once...then wash and dry them after...they always get tight after washing...I'd feel dirty if I wore my jeans more then once with out washing them.

I always buy my jeans a size smaller also because of that problem.

I think depends on the brand, but in general, I buy jeans that are pretty snug.
