  1. ^^ im pretty sure thats not how it works. if u had a 30 waist, you would size down to a tagged 28, and then the stretching on apcs, would stretch back to your actual waist, which is a 30. therefore, you are sizing down one/two instead of four.

    If you actually measure brand new tagged 28" APCs, they actually measure 30". They would then stretch an estimated 2 inches more.

    Quoted from the first page

    -Many are confused why you size down from the tagged size with APC's - this is known as vanity sizing. This entails that the jeans are cut usually a size or two bigger than what they are tagged as, and because APC denim is normally raw, that they will stretch considerably from the tagged size. DO not fear sizing down, it is your friend!
  2. What a lot of people tend to forget is that APC denim is vanity sized. And the terms "I sized down one/two", are referring to their true waist size, and true jean waist measurement, not the tagged size.

    So in short, if I had a 30" waist, I would get NS in tagged size 26 if I were to size down two. Since a tagged size 26 actually measures 28". I hope that clears any doubts for any newcomers since I've been seeing people posting "sized down 4" which is clearly impossible and will confuse any newcomers to APC or raw denim in general.

  3. The main difference is that the measurements do not match those of 005 or any slim cut PBJ. The 005 also uses a cowhide leather patch as opposed to the deer skin leather patch used on the 007/009/011 etc. And the color matches that of 007/009 as well..

  4. lolno dude.

    The PS is definitely the tapered APC cut. NC is more of a skinny straight with its slightly larger leg opening but smaller thighs whereas PS has the lower rise with roomier thighs to a smaller leg opening.
