Question About Hollister/Abercrombie Jeans..?

Hey everyone.

Yesterday, I went to the mall and tried to get some Hollister jeans. They didn't fit. I felt fat and depressed. They were slim straight legs, if that makes a difference. Thing is, I have the same type of jeans from American Eagle. And besides, the jeans had holes on my thighs. I'm not the type of guy that goes to tanning beds. o.O

Anyways, my question is this: Are Hollister jeans always that tight? And are Abercrombie the same way?

Update:

Thing is, I have slim straight Levi's, and even skinny jeans.

Why isn't Hollister fitting?

    Yes. Their sizes are two sizes smaller than other brands. I don't shop there because I would have to wear like a 14 in their sizes. They are both stuckup stores anyway. Try somewhere else.

    yeah. Hollister & Abercrombie are made for rich,skinny people lol. I don't wear jeans from either place. they dont fit me either. they are always too tight on the stomache ( & im very small) but to baggy on the legs. They don't fit a lot of people right. Don't feel fat :] . You are not alone. Go to a place where the jeans are cheaper and are more comfortable. Hollister & Abercrombie are overrated.

    Aeropostile and Abercrombie jeans are tighter and more 'fitting' than others. Plus not all the same size of jeans will be the same. Have you ever tried on one size of shoe, then go purchase another pair of shoes the same size and don't fit, well that goes the same with clothes, just find another size larger in Hollister sizes, that's the only reason, not because you've gained ten pounds or whatever, it's just the way they make there jeans. -Hope I helped, Karlie

    Source(s): I've tried on the same pare of jeans the same sizes at two different stores, and got the same results.

    Hollister has never fitted me either. The waist was always too big and the butt was always too small. Abercrombie and Hollister have almost identical sizes. There's nothing wrong with going up a size. If that doesn't work, or doesn't look right..try another brand. Everyone's different.

    All companies are different. My daughter wears mostly a skinny size 3 but in some she must go to a size5. Worry about fit,not size number. She does have a pair of Abercrombie and likes them much--

    yeah they make their jeans really tight and kind of smaller than other brands. i have a pair from hollister and i cant do as much with them as other brands. they dont stretch like other brands. abercrombie is mostly the same too.

    There's a reason you only see skinny bitches walking around with Hollister jeans on... Hollister and A&F is made for tiny tiny people with no *** or thighs. Don't feel bad. Just don't ever go in there again!

    i dont know approximately Abercrombie denims considering i've got never tried a pair on, yet i've got tried on Hollister's. The denims are very low-decrease, they relax on your hipbones, and in case you bend your butt-crack is uncovered. i individually dont incredibly like them. I even however incredibly like the yank Eagle denims, they normally run between 35-50 money, yet you could desire to get them for greater low value at TJ Maxx or Marshalls.

    i find hollister jeans are way tighter than american eagle.

    i wear the same size in american eagle as i do in abercrombie so i guess they're the same.
