FS - small pair of Draggin Jeans

I got some Fast Company "Draggin' Jeans (made in America) classic fit - Kevlar at the knees and rear - for Christmas that are not going to fit, which is a bummer because these jeans are very well made.

They are marked 32 x 32 on the inside of the pocket, but there is no way that can be correct. I'm 5'9" and weigh about 155 lbs. and these things fit like "skinny jeans" - I would guess that 30 x 30, or even 29 x 29 would be a close guess to true size because the inseam measures just slightly over 29". Might be best for a small guy or a female.

If you don't know about "Draggin' Jeans", they are some of the top level material jeans (14.5 ounce denim) with real padded Kevlar patches over the knees and butt areas that makes a real difference in a slide. They are dark blue in color and are brand new. They are pre-shruck so they should not get any smaller.

I will take $65 shipped from someone here on the forum - I plan on getting a pair of the same jeans in the right size because I am impressed with the quality compared to the jeans I have seen at Cyclegear.

I don't have any pics with me, but going to the Draggin' Jeans website might help.

I also got a pair at Xmas of 32x32 Draggin Jeans, I was a few pounds lighter than you, same height and those things were huge on me. Perhaps they were mislabeled but all the tags said 32x32. Even with my Knox shorts and knee/shine pads on I was swimming in them. Took them back to get 30s, waiting for them to come in, hopefully they fit right.

They have to be because there is no way these are 32s - I look like a weird hipster because they fit so tight.

What more do you need to know about the jeans?

They are great jeans, just too small for me. Make an offer.

Not really sure - is that with or w/out shipping?

they have a kevlar inner lining on the inside - so its like dual layer? Would you take them back if they are way to big? (maybe i can wear them as overpants if they are and you cant?)

Can you post a pic, i know its silly, maybe of the tag too? I am going to go measure a pear of some good fitting pants of mine.

The size is not on the tag - the incorrect size is written on the inside of the pocket; they pre-shrink the jeans and then measure. This time they were just wrong.

Here is the website - http://dragginjeans.com/

Sorry, I'm not trying to sell something to someone just window shopping - I was hoping to find someone already familiar with the jeans and looking to get them at a discount.

Might just keep them in hopes the next ex-girlfriend fits in them....

Im not window shopping - yes i am looking for pants but i would still want to look at the product i am purchasing - i am in the market for lower extremity gear, besides boots i am unprotected. I plan on making a purchase in the next few days with pants, over pants, or knee pads.

What does it matter if i was familiar with the product or not if you are trying to sell them and get rid of them? I merely asked simple questions. Any buyer would want to see pictures of the goods they are about to purchase - especially if they sold by people as used, like new, or "new" and not retailers or the vendor. i did look up the draggin' jeans website prior to your reply to familiarize myself with the product i was considering on purchasing.

Were those the closeout classics running for $79? I am sorry if i offended you in any way. I should have done my research on the pants prior to posting...

Are these the same kind of "dragon jeans" where you fart and a flame shoots out the butt?

Here are some measurements for a better idea of sizing.

Laying flat - waist is 15" on the dot
thigh is 9 1/4" where the kevlar starts
leg opening is 7 1/4"

an inseam measurement would probably help too.

I'm interested, I'm 5'8"? I think and weight 135lbs so they should fit, i usually wear 30x30 dress pants but like a thinner pant leg. If I can see a pic I'll probably buy them, just want to see the color. I just hope they fit over my boots.

The flash on the camera is making them look more faded than they really are - they are super dark blue.

If your interested, just pm me an offer and the highest REASONABLE offer by Sunday gets them shipped out on Monday.

These are the jeans going for $79 dollars on the website if you wear even smaller sizes, that is the reason I was trying to get at least $65 shipped - they really are brand new, just no tags (looked for them, but never came across them, even though I remember saving them - I will look again and send them with the jeans if I find them).

I will have to get some off ebay for anything close to that price and they are likely "used" and no where close to this perfect in shape.

Didn't mean to sound like an A-hole, but taking returns just seemed more than I was willing to deal with over a pair of jeans that I thought were a great deal.
