serifI don't own the N&F jeans, but I will say that the OR Ferrosi pants are really generous in the waist. I'm 200lbs and can fit into some 32" vanity sizing pants, but not actually 32". However, I have the 32" ferrosi and they are almost too roomy in the waist, that I almost wish they had adjustable waist or two button holes. They fit great everywhere else though.
DannyMilksHmm, thanks for that! Sounds like the sizing chart is way off.
I'm 150lbs... not sure where to go from here. I'll have to pass on this if MD can't provide a more accurate measurement guide.
Going by the size chart on the OR website, I can't quite decide between a 34 or a 36. https://www.outdoorresearch.com/us/en/mens-ferrosi-convertible-pants/p/2429730001319
