Was messing around with my camera.. new cures around 6 months.

[ph1l]

Picked up a pair of APC x Supremes the other day, hate the "Fuck Em!" embroidering so i took it off. Will post up fit pics later on. Jeans are great though

why didnt you just get regular apc's then....

[oh soul legit]

ive only worn my ns's for 2 weeks, when should i expect to see significant fading?

[Burr130]

Tinylegs, those look great. What's the wash/soak info on them?

[TinyLegs]

Thanks a lot man, I hand washed then after about 5 months. Then another handwash at about 2 months after that. Then at some point I gave 'em a machine wash. I stopped keeping track after the first hand wash haha.

be patient. its a long process. For me 1-3 month is like "WOAH I SEE SOMETHING" 6 months is like "wow it really does fade"

[BAerts]

Yeah, seriously, my APCs just started looking great at a year. Then they start getting really great.

[dilute]

hey guys, krudmart has a 20% + free shipping off sale with coupon code FALL20 which includes APCs. Very limited sizings but just wanted to let everyone know :]

[Guest samdiplomat]

[mr.invincible]

eh, how legit is krudmart anyways

[lanzee]

got my NC's today at retails, sized down to 27, and my true waist is 32 btw. seems pretty crazy. fit's great though!

[fightingsleep]

I don't understand why everyone posts progress pictures where they're not even wearing the jeans. They're always on the floor or something. I feel one of the main draws of raw denim is the conformation to the body. The reason I got into this is because I couldn't find jeans that fit my strange hips correctly. Yeah, sure, you got some SIKK FADEZ brah, but I want to see how your denim has fit to your body.

[ke1]

Yeah, fit pics > fade pics

Fit pics show how they fit specifically on your body AND shows the fades in context to the fit.

I could have the SIKKEST FADEZ in Da Wurld, but if the fit looks like absolute shit on me, no bitches will (s)cream at the sight of them.

[TheNorthern]

ha. word . . .

[itschrisb]

why didnt you just get regular apc's then....

bc i found the pair on ebay for super cheap so i just went with it

[rvoe30]

PS

[tropicalbird]

Not tight enough

[ke1]

^this man knows what I'm talking about.

How many washes, 2? and I think I like your shirt.

btw, looks like UCLA dorms, or at least the closet...

[rvoe30]

Not tight enough

lol

I think I'm gonna stick to this tightness + finding size 24 is hard

How many washes, 2? and I think I like your shirt.

2 ocean washes and 1 machine wash

thanks

[Keychainee]

@ rvoe30

Really nice fit there man. How i wish i got thinner calves, my honeycombs are not even distinct after 1.5 mths of wear.

[rvoe30]

thanks man.

Are you wearing PS?

My NS don't have as nice honeycombs cause they are not as tight

ps keychain with the white accord?

[Keychainee]

Yeapp, wearing PS too. Yours looks really nice already. Mine's like extra denim piling up, ill try to post some pics up later.

it's annoying that APC are considered lower quality denim than other more expensive brands. I've had my apc's for two years or daily wear, the faded beautifully and cost me half as much as "superior" denim. Are people really judging the denim for what it is, or for the implied quality that people associate with price? I mean, can anyone really wear jeans for longer than two years without getting crotch rip or other kinds of deterioration? Or just plain getting bored and moving on to something else? I don't have a ton of experience with multiple differen brands, but i still think APC are up there on the spectrum of high quality, and when compared to brands like samuri and other self edge brands i think APC have better fading, and more classic qualities of fading from a standard raw classic denim. I always thought samuri's fades looked chalky and intentional. Just my two cents

nice cop out

[DoitsuJin]

boca, you would be able to answer your own question if you were to handle other brands / denim. i don't think that explanation was a cop out at all.

however, i've always contended that high quality when it comes to denim is merely 'subjective' (to a certain extent) and one could argue that soft means quality while somebody else may point to the dye, weight etc.

with that said if we were to base it on the superfuture standards of quality, APC is definitely lower quality.

thanks

what size are they/how tall are you/what do you weigh? my size 25s are just too tight. anyone wanna buy an unwashed basically brand new size 25 petit standard for 125?

here is my fit pic -- this is how they look now -- have worn them probably 5 times max;

they look great in that picture but are too tight for my comfort.. just bought a pair of size 26 -- hopefully they will be perfect.

[ke1]

If that's only 5 wears, it leads me to believe that after a month or so, it would be the perfect fit for you.

In terms of feel, they'll loosen up a lot. In terms of aesthetics, they look great, but that's more your opinion than mine.

[rvoe30]

I'm 5'6 120lbs

I think stick to the 25s man

are you sagging? those look super long

you might need to just pull them up because your waist is skinner than your hips

[ke1]

Rvoe, how much did you hem yours?
