Paraboot

orslow

i’m eyeing the wide fit french work pants (khaki), and saw on another site that they recommend sizing down from one’s normal orslow size. i have a size 3 in the 105 (90s wash if that matters?) which if anything might be a tiny bit too large in the waist but is overall a good fit am i safe sizing down on the work pants? i’m wondering if the partially elastic waist makes them more forgivable. this is a final sale so no returns and im trying to nail it
