Where can I buy them? All I could find were fit, slim, and regulars (which were also a little tight). I live around Hongdae. Any tips appreciated.

Probably best to go to Itaewon. They do bigger sizes.

Uniqlo has big sizes. If you're really big, you'll need to head to itaewon.

Nope... I'm not big at all. 30-31 waist, but I like my jeans loose. I only have one pair from "Old Navy", and was hoping to find one here, but wherever I go, they don't have anything similar to the ones I have.

i think your best bet would be to head back to the 90's.

why not just go with the 'regular' fit ones? skinny jeans are hugely popular here so you'd fit right in wearing them Laughing

Bigger sizes increase the waist line, but the thigh is still only big enough to fit my arm through.

I think I didn't express myself correctly. When I said "loose jeans" I meant a little baggy... kinda like regular jeans in the states (regular jeans here seem to be a little smaller/tighter).

eBay. Have them shipped here directly, or have them sent to your family and then have them send them over. Even with the shipping, you'll get what you want for a lot less than you'll pay here.

Yeah, I had jeans sent to me from Canada when I lived in Korea. On two or three occasions. Usually my dad would see them cheap at the Co-Op and ask me my size (to make sure) and ship me off a couple of pairs. Worked out great. Can take a while to get there, though. Two or three months unless you express them.

From the US you can ship priority international in express boxes from the post office. Pretty quick and pretty reasonable.
