@Lorinz - Vanson can be a bit odd like that, yeah. Though in my experience, their pants simply run one size smaller though that too might depend on the year of production, as well. I have no idea what they're right now.
But I'm afraid I know what the guy over at Vanson is talking about and it's something you might not like - The front rise. There's a belt-line and then there's a belt-line. Vanson might have raised the waist, possibly all the way up to your bellybutton and that's not a particularly good look. . .
Give them another call & ask them which model has a regular / mid rise - Though from what I'm reading online, you're in luck as the Woodstock might be it - And take it from there. You know your jeans size. Measure the waist of ones that fit you best & ask Vanson to tell you which size has the same waist width with similar rise.
Thanks, I'll make sure to call them and ask. I notice on the description it mentions the Woodstock having Rayon lining that can be pulled out for handwashing. Is that something that would end up being a pain to deal with or not really? Also out of curiosity, I noticed Vanson pants are more expensive than the ones you linked earlier(the Halvarssons not by too much, the Modeka by a good bit), is there a reason for this(like Vanson being considered a more prestigious company), or they just chose that price?
Also, do you have a link to the thread about the costs of making leather garments? I'm looking for it but can't find it so far, I think it would make for an interesting read.
