Duer brand gusseted performance jeans in a 29/32 sizing is a great jean for so many things. These are actually great to hike in and do more athletic type things in due to the gussets. I love this brand and have several pairs. This pair is a skinny jean and the waist has become a little tight for me. I usually wear a 29-30 in these jeans and find the 30's usually a little loose. But this pair actually do fit closer to a 29. They are in excellent shape, I have not ever put them in a dryer, I always hang them to dry. You can not go wrong with Duer. Give them a try.
