Schöne Hose, für meinen Geschmack aber leider viel zu kurz. Einen Punktabzug wäre aber unfair, da es klar steht. :)

Love the some stretch washes they’re more comfortable than the no stretch. I’m 5’8” 145 and usually a size 28 leaning 27. The blank spot wash does run 1-2 sizes small(went with size 29). No referee runs true to size or 1/2 size small(went with 28). Disco nights white runs true to size(went with 28). I do wish they made the high rise 501 shorts in a slightly longer inseam option as well, 3.5 inches would be ideal and a lighter blue wash with a clean sewn hem.
