Double D

Aye, I'm thinking of straying into the women's section of APC and picking up some 25" new cures, or "slim denim" as they seem to be calling them. Got too many straight legs and tapers look like bags around my skinny thighs. Bizarre that you can get 25" new standards in men's, but the slims which will stretch like hell no doubt start at 28'.

Look worth checking out, especially if I can hunt down some 6x6.

Forgot to mention Cheap Monday for the sake of completeness.

Any other sub 28 jeans out there without straying into the realms of girl denim?

One day I'll get myself a decent leather belt, but it's a lot of effort for someone with a 26 inch waist and a lot of money for an impoverished music student. So mostly coloured fabric belts to match whatever I'm wearing, with nice skate style buckles that adjust to my size

Really need to wash them though, the pale ones are covered in indigo stains...

I need advice. I'm looking to get some new dry denim around Christmas time, but my options are severely limited by my insanely small bone structure. I'm 5' 8", so inseam isn't an issue, but my waist is around about 26". Right now I'm wearing a pair of unwashed 501s with a 25" waist, and I can do the top button up - but this causes some unfortunate chafing around the old crotch region.

As far as I can find, the only brand that stocks a decent 26 inch denim is the APC webstore. Can anyone give me any more suggestions in this field?

I think stacking is seeing a redux not because cuffing is out but simply because there's a hell of a lot more slim/straight/tapered legs on shop shelves right now.

A couple of years ago when the shops were vastly dominated by boot & wide legs stacking just wasn't an option, and the issue was whether to cuff or just tread off the backs of your jeans.

Just my 2 cents.
