I emailed customer service this morning and they replied an hour later answering my question on fit. Here’s his response:
Thanks for reaching out. The Attack had a slight design change in 2018. The only change is the pocket design. There is some confusion that we changed the fit. The fit has not changed at all from the original design. Often, customers are comparing a new pant that's not broken in to an older pair, sometimes that are nine years old, that have loosened up slightly over time.
Like any manufacturer, we have a tolerance, but this tolerance shouldn't vary enough to merit a size change.
I would recommend you go with your normal 32 waist size. I'm also a 32, have been a 32 in KUIU pants since 2012 and I've never needed a 34 in any of our pants.
I hope this helps, If I'm wrong, you can always use the provided return label and we'll give you free shipping on your replacement order.
All the best,
So I ordered a pair in the size he recommended. Hope this helps someone!
