uniqlo ultra stretch jeans - you are my new best mate

Armpitt · 26/01/2015 15:08

I got these ones to wear with my chelsea boots ( right length) but also fancy the full length ones

Normally like topshop baxters but these are way comfier and the dye is better - they are blacker

I love uniqlo jeans. Are the ultra stretch as generous in their sizing as the normal jeans?

Armpitt · 26/01/2015 15:21

They look really good

Armpitt · 26/01/2015 15:24

you put them on and they fit in all the right places
I am short of waist and these are fine but for some might be too short maybe...

They are great. I have 4 pairs and 18 months later, still no saggy arse. They also don't give up the ghost half way through the day. Black have faded but I am not precious with them. I would like an extra inch in the rise though to hide the muffin

Armpitt · 26/01/2015 15:39

These look like the normal length ones. They do free henning in store but I'm a 32 so will just pressing some shrinking

I LOVE uniqlo jeans and recommend them to everyone. The denim is really good quality. I live the dark blue wash the best.

MsBojangles · 26/01/2015 16:06

Not keen on the ankle zips.

maybemyrtle · 26/01/2015 16:51

I have and love the normal length ones - I have 2 blues, grey and black - and this morning a pair of dark grey ankle ones arrived (they were in the sale but seem to have sold out online now). I really do rate Ultra Stretch jeans and they last really well. My black ones have faded but I'll revitalise with some wash-in Dylon when I get round to it. The blue and grey pairs haven't faded or changed shape in the slightest and are quite old now.

Love the ankle zips with the right boots

What is the sizing like, if you buy, for example, a size 10 elsewhere what size waist do you buy at Uniqlo?

Armpitt · 27/01/2015 07:33

i am a 12 and got a 30.
increasingly lots of shops do waist sizes now, don't they?

OP posts:
Lambzig · 27/01/2015 09:49

Hmm, I am a 12 and normally buy a 28 in Uniqlo jeans, so sounds like these are a little less vanity sized. Maybe I will have to try on.

maybemyrtle · 27/01/2015 10:00

I'm a 10-12 pear and I have Ultra Stretches in 27 and 28. The black and grey ones are slightly more rigid I think.

Armpitt · 27/01/2015 17:08

I'm a 12 with a flabby waist. Interesting top shop said 12 is a 30

OP posts:
Lambzig · 27/01/2015 18:15

Yes I take a 30 in other brands (from J Brand to Gap), but a 28 in non ultra Uniqlo.

Armpitt · 27/01/2015 19:14

i got the 28 over my bum but not around my wine induced tum.

Lambzig · 27/01/2015 19:32

So sorry, that is the ordinary uniqlo though, have never tried the ultra stretch

I have always thought a 30 waist was a twelve normally.
