    Oh - another question about DRKSHDW jeans sizing: is the women's sizing the same as mens, that is, womens 28 = mens 28 in all measurements? I'm asking specifically about Detroit cut jeans.

    Any info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

      Morsto, drkshdw is definitely inconsistent. I have sizes ranging from 31-34. I found fall sizing a bit slimmer myself.

      MBD, I can't imagine the womens and mens fit the same. I could be wrong but I believe the mens and womens are tailored somewhat to each respective sex. I've seen a couple women try on mens sizing and they just don't look right in the hips/bum.

        Johnnyfenix,

        Was told by one that they're unisex, but then had a man try on my 28s. Without a doubt, the rise/back rise are shorter, generally by two inches on women.

        Thanks for your input!

          How do these run/fit? Usually I am a size 9 (43) in RO trainers.

          They look pretty comfortable.

              MBD: i highly doubt they will be the same in measurements. from what i know, the female's detroits fit much slimmer, compared to male's detroits.

                I echo the above statement. Not only the women's are slimmer, the rise is also totally different. Men's have a lower crotch / women's are cut higher.

                    no- they run 1-2 sizes small, so size up.

                    *Some of the older models with RiRi zippers felt TTS to me.

                      OH, thanks for the info.

                      Guess the best way is to get outsole length?

                            heh i meant if possible, to order a pair online, try it on for size, then go from there. but yeah, outsole is an okay way to go, but try to get insole measurement too just incase...

                              I'm trying to figure out my size in a AW10 Rick Owens Mollino. I'm a large in the SS10 Intarsia, and the XL in the Mollino seems almost identical in terms of the measurements I've found for it.

                              Can anyone help with the sizing comparison?

                              Thanks

                                i heard the mollino fits pretty large through the body, so definitely check for that
