  1. So, unfortunately, I'm going to have to send these on early. I'm not going to be able to give them the proper wear, so I will send them to someone who can.

    Haha, fatty. Looks like you need to hit the treadmill. Seriously though, I'm disappointed that you couldn't give em some wear. You took up a spot on the list that someone else could have filled. Like me, perhaps. Sucks. :o

    edit: Just noticed there was a reserve list. Maybe someone there can get in on the action? Could I get added to the reserve list, just in case? Cheers.

  2. is it just me....or is the top block of those sams really big? pretty high rise? either that, or are you pretty short and have had them hemmed?

    they look really disproportionate to me.

    It's probably the angle at which he took the picture. If you look closely at the floor, it seems slanted towards the left. You can also see his foot in the left side of the picture, so I'm assuming he took a picture looking down at them, and rotated the picture in a photo editing program. The top just looks bigger because it's angled closer to the camera.

  3. My roommate currently has both a pair of New Standards and Nudies, they're both pretty sick... his APCs have faded really well. The only thing I'm concerned with is that I'm not as thin as he is, so I don't want the jeans to look awkward. I don't mind skinny jeans, I just don't want to look like I'm bulging out of them.

    On the other hand, I don't want to size up too much and not be happy with the fit in a few months...

    Recommendations? Stick with the NS or size down on rescues?? etc?

    Size down one from your true size on NS, and you should be set. APCs are also notorious for the amount they stretch. You could even size down two, for a slimmer fit.

    and it WORKED.

    Funny picture. Reminds me of the time me and my friends devised an ingenius plan to buy food at the Wendy's drive thru in Davis. They wouldn't take walk thru orders, and we tried biking through, but they still wouldn't have it. So we made a shitty cardboard cutout of a sedan that used a single crutch for support and for holding on to. We lugged this monstrosity a mile from the dorms to the Wendy's on our bikes. When we finally got there, we attached the thing to two of our bikes and biked through and ordered. Dipshit guy took our order and had it ready, but then he refused to sell it to us. After all that work did nothing, we just pissed on one of their windows/doors, and took our cutout back. It's hanging in one of the dorm halls right now, I think.

  5. So I'm looking to break into the raw denim scene and buy a pair...

    Considering between Sufu fav A.P.C. NS (31) I typically wear a 33

    or... Nudie Slim Jims also in size 31.

    Considering I'm pretty stingy, is it worth it for me to shell out an extra $35-40 and upgrade to Nudie? How big is quality diff, or is it mostly just hype and stitching?

    APCs yield amazing fades. If you take a look at the xxx-gallery thread, you will see a nice collection of APC New Standards. Personally, I like the minimalist style of APC versus the style of Nudies. Nudies jeans are also notorious for crotch rips. I wouldn't know the difference in quality because I do not own Nudies. The back pocket stitching on Nudies are also loud and obnoxious to me.

  6. i dont know abt u guys, but i would give up every single pair of denim i have to bang that 'kill the hype' chick

    I don't know. Girls come and go. Doesn't matter if they're hot or not. But denim, no. Jeans stay with you through thick and thin. Always loyal, always loving.

  7. I have lots of issues with being insecure and lack of self-esteem. I lost my right arm from a car accident when i was 2 years old- all the way to my elbow. I don't like to show my loss of limb to most of people. Due to this, my wardrobe has been limited long sleeve shirts (long time ago, I used to wear xxxl shirts but I decided that I look even worse when I dress like that). Prosthetic arms are either too heavy or uncomfortable for me. But I still get complimented for my style from time to time. But it's just too frustrating for me that I can't wear short sleeve shirts that I want to wear (without jackets, hoodies or wearing long sleeves underneath).

    I realize that it's not a big of a deal, but sometimes I just wish for things like that. But I'm not completely depressed/emotional. I still live a great life with great friends to support me. Maybe I just take my appeance too seriously than I should. I even try to look for jobs without wearing those company uniforms, which is pretty pathetic. Why am I posting this, I don't know... It's just all these little things that tick me off from time to time.

    Haha. How long did it take you to type up this post one-handed? Must have been a good 10 minutes, huh?

  8. Can anyone give me the thigh measurements for a size 31 in both the 19 cm and 21 cm cuts? Stretched and/or new? Someone help me out. I'm trying to decide if I can fit into 19s, or if I should just go with 21's.

    Also, does anyone know if there is a Dior Homme stockist in San Francisco that sells 19 cm's? I heard Saks does, but I'm not sure.
