  1. Does anyone have one? I had mine designed (by myself) and will be getting them by September. Can't wait! I heard you could only have them in London, New York and (would you believe) in Manila, Philippines!

  2. I guess what the store owner was advising me is to wear it a bit loose then? I was really inclined in getting the 33 but he insisted. Anyway, if I don't like the fit after soaking he'll give me the 33. Thanks!

  3. I've finally decided to buy a pair APC new standard (in raw denim) because of the nice fit on me. Is it true that APCs will shrink after you soak them the first time? I wear a waist size 34 and when I fitted a size 33, it fits me well. But the owner told me that they will soak it for me and told me to go for the 34 (even if it is 2-3 inches bigger than 34". He claims that it will shrink after soaking. If not, he will give me the size 33. I guess he know what he's talking about.

    Can anyone vouch for this? I read in another thread in this forum that it does shring

  4. Thanks for all your inputs. I've finally decided to APC new standard based on the fit when I tried both on. Is it true that APCs will shrink after you initially soak them? I wear a waist size 34 and when I fit a size 33, it fits me well. But the owner told me that they will soak it for me initially and told me to go for the 34 (even if it is 2-3 inches bigger than 34". He claims that it will shrink after soaking. If not, he will give me the size 33. I guess he know what he's talking about.

    Any comments from the APC experts? Thanks in advance!

  5. Any thoughts on this Swedish brand? Are they're line of jeans compete with the likes of other top brands? Which are they most compared with? I heard that they are in the category of diesel jeans. Would Rogan, APC, Rag & Bone better in your opinion?

    I particularly like the DOGGE advanced relaxed bluetones denim

    Thanks!

  6. Could you say in terms of quality, pound per pound ROGAN would still come out the best? How about Loomstate, APC, rag & bone, nudie, or corpus denim.

    Let's do a litlte survey!!!

  7. Need your expert opinion(s). Is Paper denim marketed to cater to masses. Sort of the type that would be snobbed by people who know their jeans. Just an opinion a friend voiced out. I just want to verify. Obviously. I'm quite naive. Thanks!

  8. I've checked Volls and from what I gather in their website, Atelier LaDurance is a bit baggy. I guess it's not for me. I'm just a straight cut/ relaxed fit kinda guy.

    Any recommendations among these brands: APC, Rock & Republic, Rogan, Paper Denim, Corpus Denim, Evisu, Rag & Bone.

    Any other online retailer selling these brands?
