They work out to be a modern regular cut for me thanks to the hem, but if I were taller, these would actually be a pretty slim cut. This is why I really do not consider this pair of jeans to be a regular cut.
I do not think that leg openings under 8” look good with any boots aside from sleek Chelsea boots. For me, this would be basically unwearable.

Tanuki’s measurement for the leg opening of these jeans with the full inseam of almost 36” is 7.68”. Something that I need to clarify is that the only reason this cut works for me is because I am not very tall and have all my jeans hemmed to a 29” inseam. They technically fit over my engineers, but I do not think they look great with them. My only real issue with them is that the hem is too small for them to look good with my engineer boots. In fairness, I think the jeans look pretty good on me. The rise is a little lower than I would prefer and the hem is a little tighter than I would like, but given that Tanuki is a more modern denim company that is focused on people who tend to like more modern jeans and modern fits, this silhouette makes sense for them. These are called the regular fit and I suppose by modern standards, they are a fairly regular fit. Upper Thigh: 11.75” (this is an entire inch smaller than Tanuki’s measurement) The measurements are as follows for my one wash pair after about 10 wears: However, I do feel that these fit me pretty well overall. To explain just how poorly they ended up fitting, this new pair is in the same cut, are size 31, and the waist is also too big on these as well. I enjoyed the first pair of Tanuki jeans that I received, but I was never able to wear them too much because I was losing weight when I got them and the size 36 ended up becoming too large for me fairly quickly. My size 36 Tanuki Earth Denim jeans that I previously reviewed I actually did not expect them to ever do it, but they did finally offer their 21.5oz Oni x Tanuki fabric in their “regular” cut and they were kind enough to send me this pair to review as well. In 2019, Tanuki only made their Oni collaboration jeans in slimmer fits that I would not personally wear. The reason was that while I normally prefer more vintage-oriented and reproduction-style jeans right now, I do sometimes find myself tempted by more modern jeans with fabrics that push the boundaries rather than try to recapture old magic. When Tanuki sent me my first pair of jeans to review, I remember telling them that I really wanted them to make their Oni x Tanuki collaboration jeans in the regular fit.
