Do you remember the seven pink a pockets I bought in a size 31?  Here is the thread: http://www.activeboard.com/forum.spark?forumID=44784&subForumID=102212&action=viewTopic&commentID=2842961&topicPage=4


Anyway, I am wearing them today and they are about to fall off.  They seemed to fit when I tried them on. I think I could even have worn a 29.  Even though they are 100% cotton, they have stretched a little.  Boo, hoo.  They are bagging in the rear, too.  I feel very un-cute.


I don't know if I am allowed to do this on here, but if any one wants a pair of 31 pink a pocket sevens , I will gladly sell them to you and not charge you any shipping. I will even have them dry cleaned for you.  Just PM me.  If it is not ok to offer to sell a product on this board, I beg forgiveness and just delete this message.

I'm so sorry.  I wonder if you dried them in the dryer if that would shrink them??

Don't you hate that? 


Gain some weight... ha,ha just kidding. 


I doubt the dryer will work, because in my experience the dryer only brings them back so much.  Like, by the end of one wear in one of my jeans I wash them just because they have stretched too much. But I don't have baggy-ass-syndrome by mid-day in those; that is why I don't think the dryer would work. 


Just resell them here or on Ebay.  You should be able to re-coup some or all of your costs. 


I hope you find another pair soon; I remember all too well how excited you were about them.

This has happened to so many ppl I know, including myself! You never expect it to stretch out that much. I think you should sell it and get a new pair, now you know what size to get.

I think I am probably going to get a 29 when I order again.  They were literally about to fall off me when I got home from work.  I literally could fit my fist between my stomach and the waist in the front.  That sounds like they are about two size too big.  Doesn't it?

that stinks, Meow! yeah I was a little worried when you said you got a 31, cause it sounds like you and I are the same size, and even allowing for you to like a looser fit than I do, that would still put you at a 29, so you should be very safe ordering that. Even if when you first try them on, they seem like they are way too tight, I promise they will stretch a lot (as you have sadly now experienced). I agree with Drew, though, a drier will not shrink them enough and even then the slight shrink you do get will just be temporary.  Good luck!
