Orslow Sumi Dyed Linen Fatigue Sizing
Been looking at these pants and trying to figure out my sizing. Most of my pant waists measure 41cm, but they're generally mid rise, don't know how that translates to higher rise pants.
I've seen a variety of different measurements across different retailers (some say Size 4 is a 32 waist, some say it's 34) so I'm confused.
If anyone has experience with the sizing of these pants or the brand it'll be really helpful 🙂

OrSlow sizing is roulette across fabrics and seasons. However, they have side adjusters that allow you take in the waist a couple of inches so I'd err on the side of too big.
Typically your true waist, which is where high rise pants sit, is a little slimmer than your hips (which is where mid and low rise stuff sits)
You can just use measuring tape across the thinnest point of your waist (usually close to, if not on, the bellybutton) to get an idea of your waist size for high rise pants
But you could also just buy your normal size and use side adjusters to make it sit wherever you want—like chopper said!
Going big and hoping the adjusters do the trick seems to be the move then. If all else fails, a belt to cinch it might not be so bad? I only have a standard belt for trousers, I wonder if that would work well with these
That's 100% the move IMO. I havent had this particular model but I've owned but a size 3 and 4 in the regular fatigues, the 3 stretched out a lot but I ended up sizing up to the 4, now I just use the adjusters or a belt and I like the fit a lot more.
Will give an update when it comes
Overshot my waist size by quite a bit, doesn't seem too bad belted but I'm thinking of moving the buttons for the side adjusters further in so I don't need to use a belt.
That’s a good idea. Could also probably get it tailored, I just dropped a pair of pants off to have the waist taken in and it was only $20.
