Do these not fit right or am I just not used to wearing wide jeans?

Tried these Landon pants at Carhartt WIP in a size 27. Most of my current pants are slimmer and/or flood pants. I do have some wider pants, but those are chinos and wool trousers, not jeans. I would like to leave my comfort zone a little and buy some wider jeans. I feel weird seeing myself in these, is something wrong with the fit or am I just not used to it? They look much wider on the models in their online stores, too. The difference is a little crazy, see my last screenshot. Should I get a bigger size and where them a little lower on the hip? I am usually more of 29 or 30, but I recall Carhartt's sizing being a bit oversized for my European sensitivity.

Smaller is literally the opposite of what he's looking for.

With the way the fabric puckers/bunches towards the center (most noticable around the crotch in pics 1 and 4) I’d say a size up may be better

Good point, they must be. You can kind of see that they fold a little at the hip, so I think you're right.

big jeans with leather shoes is a great look

I think they look good in the relaxed look you have here fwiw but I understand if you want wider
