Does TCB run true to size?

Going by the published charts, TCB runs true to size. For a 32″ waist we’d pick a tag 32 in 2 of 5 models. That aims for a waistband at your waist after the first soak: selvedge gives about an inch with wear.

Waists measured around your body where your jeans sit. Raw, unsanforized charts are adjusted for their first soak. Each model below shows its own pick for your waist.
