nice to see a more regular fit on the 005. Most guys size them tight so they look like they were bootcut

New jawns? I'm pretty excited to see how those evolve given the reputation you've earned with your 666s.

thats true as well, but these suckers are really short in the back rise and roomy from the knee down.
in my case sizing up is the right way to get a comfortable fit. ;)

I got them in size W31, W32 and W33 - still can't decide which size is best...sizing down (W31) is ok but kind of pathetic at my age, W32 is ok but W33 feels cooler (with a belt).
