Inbetween Jean sizes should I go too big or too small?

[Wonderwalk]

Just wondering what everyone else does. I always seem to fall between jean sizes. I usually go with the too small size hoping they will stretch but I’m sometimes left with hangover at the waist. If I go too big I’m pulling them up or having to use a belt. What would you go for? I’ve tried a lot of different brands and seem to have the same issue and I’m not sure which is the lesser evil.

I have the same issue and have had jeans taken in at the waist because I need them for the bum/hips - might that be an option?

I have this problem too. If the jeans stretch, I size down. If no elastane, size up.

For starters, many jeans are not true to size. Even the same brand vary. I had one pair that l thought were comfy and after a while my whole bum popped out if l bent over or crouched down.

I think it’s a case for try on and go for as uncomfortable as you can take in the hope that they will turn out OK and comfy when broken in. Not really ideal though is it?

I've given up on proper jeans and wear jeggings now as I find they are much more stretchy.

Always go bigger, then you can have them altered to fit on the waist.

I, too, mainly wear jeggings these days (for day-to-day wear) as I can get them to fit nice and snug but still be comfortable.

Levi's and Pepe used to do waist by inch and in between sizes

I have the same problem and found Next online do some styles of jeans that are in between sizes

Yes, I was going to say try a brand that does per inch.

Next do in between sizes and also3 different leg lengths

Ohhh that’s a good point...I hadn’t even thought of Levi’s et al! I might go to them next time I need jeans.

Definitely the bigger size. Too small jeans are so uncomfortable I can't bear it.
