    Pants...

    So, I am thinking about pairing a Suit1 blazer with the P12 pants, but with how skinny my legs are, I feel that these will offer a relaxed fit (I have never owned BBS pants before). Can anyone please tell me which is the slimmest version of pants? It looks like P13 and even P11 are small, but from INK photos it is a little tough to tell...

    Has anyone tried any of these from Sailorism?

    (I don't know if this would be more appropriate for the "shopping" thread because it is so brand specific...)

      The slimmest version of the pants is the one with the front seam from the knee down. I don't know model numbers like you geeks - so you'll have to figure it out on your own.

        Thanks, Faust!

        It looks like that would be P11, this helps a lot.

            ^^ I've just ordered two BBS pants from this season. Haven't recieved them yet, but asked two online stores for help. Looks like they all fit very different! Look here and here. P13 are ultra tight, while P11 are loose. So you better ask for measurements where you gonna buy them first.

              ^Thank you both!

              Mark, from INK, just confirmed that their P11 version is actually tighter than both P12 and P13.

                  the fit varies quite a bit season to season and according to fabric and treatment. unfortunately there is no hard and fast rule.

                  measurements on bbs can be misleading as well due to the various patterns and constructions. they are nice to know, but they are only a part of the story.

                  all u can hope for is that u are buying from a retailer that will tell you the truth rather than just try to get a sale telling you what u want to hear.

                  there is nothing i hate more than when an item shows up and its so obvious that the seller should have easily known that it wasn't going to fit. dammit.

                    [B]cjbreed[/B, I think you are right. It it probably a good idea just to talk with a reputable retailer...and probably even BBS CS.

                    Thanks!

                      My P13s are also a bit tight. They're M and when I first put them on I thought I might have to exchange them. Fortunately they've settled/stretched enough to be comfortable and I don't have big thighs; still It'd be better if the sizing wasn't so all over the place

                      place. I have garments ranging from xs to l.

                        I have the same with BBS, from XS to M, not L but I might need a L for a P13 as I saw people say its similar to between 30-32 size.

                        I bought it as an S from the SS13 collection and its tooo tight, can't even close all the buttons..it was a risk but it was my only shot to put this one in the collection, unfortunate its too tight on the waist, but ah well..risks :) only wore it once, might stretch out a bit like Resonkuken said if I wear it more often.
