Note these are listed as a size 33 but fit more like a 30 or 31 after hot soaking twice. Worn literally twice, in almost mint condition. These are a relaxed taper, with lots of room in the thighs. They just don't look right on me. Would also consider trading for IH 555 in size 31 in similar condition.
