Just got some WWR 3/4. I'm not sure about the sizing though. The waist size seems right (although like every one says i went down a size) and the cut around the leg seem great.
But I the crotch seems too high. I think I'm in between sizes so i usually err on the side of caution and go up rather than down a size, so usually have planty of room around me nadgers. I dont like jeans and haven't worn them for about 20 years and normally wear baggy combats. The 3/4's look as though they are similarly cut to what fitted jeans would be cut like so am not used to a high crotch (if this is what the 3/4's are supposed to be like)
Also the waistband "seems" a bit low (although the fitting around the waist feels perfect). The waist band is about 2" below my belly button. Should they be like this? I'm used to having the waistband higher on my trousers higher
I dont want to send them back, get the size up, just to discover I had the correct size in the first place.
(Do any London shops stock WWR 3/4 shorts so i could maybe go try sizes?)
