<p>I just bought a pair of low-rise straight-leg jeans, and they’re a little bit tighter than I’d like (they’re Mortons from RUEHL No.925). Fortunately, I’m tall and slender, so I’m “able” to pull off the slim-fit. But definitely agree, slim-fits look good only on certain body types. I wouldn’t recommend them to people with muscular legs, but tall runners/swimmers look great in them. </p>
<p>Off-topic here, but when I was trying on different pairs of jeans, I was really surprised how so many more people had smaller waists than me! I felt like an odd-ball with my W-32.</p>
