I go to buy them and find a pair that fit, the next size down is too small, the jeans look fine, I buy them.

Then after 30 mins or so of wearing them, they become really baggy. I have some on now that were fine and they are now sagging off my bum and really baggy at the legs as though they are 2 sizes too big!

They arent stretch jeans.

what do I do? Buy th size that doesnt fit and try to stretch wear them?

I read an article this weekend in Red magazine, Donna Ida, "denim queen" said that if they go on too easily they're probably no good. You have to kick your way into them for the perfect fit.

2% lycra means mine fit like a glove. Surpisingly from Next. And I don't buy jeans unless I need a coathanger to do up the zip (teenager in the 70s!)

I agree with theladyloves - you should have to wriggle in to them when you first put them on so that they don't end up too baggy

yep - I've had this problem with a pair I bought recently. They fit perfectly in the shop, but now I'm having to hoik them up. They cost a fair bit too. Argh!

i have just started buying jeans 1/2 a size too small. as long as i can squeeze the zip up, then i get then regardless of whether or not i can breathe.
it's a bloody revelation. 2 days later they're perfect.
