Does anyone own these?

(mercer wash)
I'm wondering how much they stretch compared to other Sevens.  The SA at bloomies said go for the smaller size bc they stretch a full-size but I'm afraid to do that.  They are 98% cotton, 2% spandex.  TIA!

I don't know if this will help you or not, but I have the Dojo's in that exact wash, and they are pretty much the same thing - I took my regular size in the Dojo's.  I also tried the Ginger's on when I bought my Dojo's and the Ginger's fit exactly the same as the Dojo's did.  To make a long story short, I would say buy your regular size in 7's.  HTH!

I have them and they have more stretch than some of the other 7s I have.

Just as an FYI, they had a ton of those at my Loehmann's a couple of weeks ago... they were like $70.

I have these and bought them in the same size as my other SFAMK jeans. I do think they stretch a little more than my others, but not enough to size down.

A warning, though. The dye rubbed off on my legs! I washed them before wearing them (because I needed to have them hemmed).  After the first time I washed them, I noticed that my washcloth was blue after I washed my legs in the shower. My legs didn't look blue, but I went through three washcloths before they dye on my legs stopped turning them blue! I have another pair of dark was SFAMK and this does not happen with them. Kitty, did this happen to you?

This happened to me too w/the Dojo's I have in the Mercer wash!  The dye rubbed off on my legs, shoes, and my cream canvas bag too!  Vanessa, if you get them, make sure you wash them before you wear them, and only wash w/like colors!

I didn't even think about my bags!  I think I'll wash them again.

Thanks ladies! I got my usual size based on your recommendations.
Thanks for the warning about the dye! I will be extra careful weirdface

jah, thanks for the loehmann's tip too! I did see them there a couple of weeks ago, but they didn't have my size.

shopchicago33, I'll probably be wearing these Saturday! :)
