Jeans/Trousers fit check - trying to find things that vaguely fit!
I have historically leaned towards baggy clothes, but I figured it was about time I started wearing things that were at least somewhat 'fitting'. I still want to be comfortable though. Which is where I hit snags - while I'm not hugely overweight, I find it hard to find trousers that fit comfortably around my waist, without them ending up hugely baggy around 'mah buttocks' and my legs.
These trousers are all 34" waist, with different leg lenghts (29, 32 and 31 I think). They all seem too long on me (especially the boot-cut ones) but I figure it's a LOT easier to fix the length of the legs, compared to fixing the width of the waist/seat.
I thought the brown pair were too baggy while wearing them, but seeing them from the outside they actually seem to be... ok? I dunno. Basically I have no idea what I'm doing, so figured I should get some advice!

For me the best are the brown.
I think all the leg lengths are a little long, especially the obviously long blue ones.
Both blue ones look a little tight around the bum? Depends how it feels. Try moving around a bit while sitting.
They all look very ordinarily fitting jeans.
It might be worth trying some that aren't so tapered but are the right leg length for you- hemming is find and cheap but if you do too much it can affect the intended proportions afaik.
Anyone else's opinions or contradictions find though.
The blues seem to flare out a bit right at the waist, which makes them look not so good as the brown, but it might be the pictures.
There are two blues there (one straight one boot cut). The boot cut are oddly low on the hips I've realised. Between that and the length and flaring I think they'll be returned.
The browns I am quite liking I was just concerned they were too baggy. If they look fine then I'm happy with them.
The straight blues are indeed a big tight. Not sure why as they're the same size, must be a brand thing.
I was thinking of trying a 34 slim next just to see how that fitted. But yeh for leg length I'll be aiming for 29 or 30 from now on as that should be closer to my size.
