It always amazes me how new posters find the most amusing threads to necro!

I have a 29 inseam, so I hope my waist is bigger! 😱
 
My best fit is 28 waist, 33 length. I am 5'10, and 34 is a bit too long for me but 32 is a bit short when I sit down.

Since 28x33 is not common, I usually have to settle for 30x32 and wear a belt. Usually I have to drill new holes in my belts because the pre-drilled ones are way too loose...

What're your other account names?
 
Wow, with all these 32s and 34s, I must have rather stubby legs to be 6'1" and only have a 29" inseam. 😛

It probably depends more on the brand and how you like your jeans to fit.

My dad wears his jeans so that they don't quite cover the tops of his shoes. I wear mine so that they cover the tops of my shoes and a little extra.

I'm 33x30. Depending on the brand I can do anywhere from 32x30 (usually too tight) to 34x30 comfortably. 34 tends to fall down a bit though, to the point where I need a belt if I'll be running at all.

I have one pair of 30x30 jeans from back when I was under 150lbs. Man, I can't even get them close to all the way up anymore.

That's true. I used to try and cover my footwear a bit with my pants, but that wearing what amounts to baggy khakis to work almost seems too unprofessional. I used to wear 32", but that would probably explain why most of my pants were frayed at the bottom... they kept slipping under my heel. 😛 I then dropped to a 30", but as mentioned above, they were still a little baggy.

I bought the 29" ones this past weekend, and they definitely do seem a bit more professional.

As for the brand, I mostly wear Haggar Cool 18 Khakis. I love how lightweight they are. Sometimes it feels like I'm not even wearing pants! :$
 
Depending brand/style, 32x32, 34x34 or 34x32. Add in mixes of 33 where applicable. I like loose fitting shorts/pants (not retard sagging loose though).

5'10.5" ~173lbs. Looking to lose 10-15 lbs over the next year.
