I am a 33-34 inch waist 5’10” around 185 lbs very muscular. I purchased the xxl based on reviews. I wanted then to be on the loose side. The fit is good. Very comfortable fabric. Stretches and gives in all the right areas. The only issue is the inseam is really short and my stuff hangs a good 2” out the leg opening. I will have to wear one of my wildmanT thongs with these. I have no problem having a VPL. But I can’t have it hanging out in the open, even when I am just lounging around the houseThe shame is I like how they feel and fit. Having to wear something under defeats the purpose. I wish the inseam was a little longer.
