  1. hey im guessing from what ive seen and read that the lvc 1947 501's dont come in size 31? which would mean that sizing up 1 might give me too slimmer look im going for and 32 would be baggier than i wanted.

    Or am i just looking in the wrong places for size 31's

  2. thanks,but im set on getting some lvc 47's just wanting to get some opinions on sizing,Ive read about sizing up but im confused as my real waist doesnt seem to equal in denim terms as you can see by how ive sized with my other jeans.

  3. ok I gona need someone to answer that has a wide sizing knowledge, I measured my waist and even got someone else to and its 30 and over 31ish lower where I usually wear my jeans.

    So i sized down 2 with new standards (to a 2 8) and they were way too big (they were 2nd hand and could of been stretched by previous owner.)

    I then got some new cures in 29 (sized down 1) and they look too big for new cures even though i sized down 1

    I use to wear grim tims in size 30 which looked like this

    so I guess there true to size.

    So im really keen on getting some lvc, probaly the 1947's, I sized up 2 on some regular 501's along time (size 33) ago but they came out alot big and baggy after the hot wash. But i dont think i soaked them enough or properly.

    What im probaly gona do in the weekend is just head down to the nearest store that sells levis and try on a washed pair (all we seem to get in nz and we dont have any lvc to try on) find my right size in that, then go from there.

    so yer im abit confused on how my waist is 30/31 but it never works out in denim sizing.

  4. whatever size you just bought in new standards, either get that size in new cures or go one size down.

    thanks alot man, but the thing is there are size 28 which has been sized down 2, im sure the reason their so big is because the previous owner stretched them alot, size down 3 or 4 on new cures will give me a really tight fit which I dont want, i tried some new cures on tday which was sized down 1 which I liked alot,size down 2 was too tight but im guessing they would stretch out to a size I like.

  5. If you hem them then they won't bunch up as much. How short are you?

    im 5'6 maybe 5'7

    even with a hem they still look way to loose for my liking, probally gona go with the cure,but not sized down to much as i dont like the tight look to much

  6. So my true waist is 30(geting around 32/33 around my hips where my jeans usually sit)

    I sized down 2 and got a pair of 28 new standards, I absolutely hate the fit.so dont flame cause I hate it myself. Im guessing the guy I bought them off had stretched them quite abit as they measure 15.5 in the waist.

    these to me look more like rescues,which I really dont want, I wanted a wayyy more slimmer fit, im contemplating new cures,or petite standards now or maybe just size right with the standards. But now im really confused on how to size,and there is no apc stockists in my area.

  7. that is a bad pic of them ,but I do agree they look horrible, sweet will size down 2.

    nah not really wanting to get another pair of nudies, and I been sagging ever since I was born and thats just how i like my pants.

  8. Hey im wearing nudie grim tims at the moment, but they seem to be abit slim for my clothes that I wear like my top half looks to bulky with the jeans, im looking to get some new standards hoping this will help, wanting to size down 3 but now thinking that the cut might be too slim. please help

    some pics for reference of my fits now.
