Thank you she

Thank you sir

Have any pics of how it looks hanging from your belt?

Any recommendation for polishes? I just have a few scuffs here and there that I'd like to work.

Would anyone recommend Obenauf's for new boots? I'm trying to figure out if I should treat my Ascots now or down the road.

Weather isn't too harsh here in Florida, but it seems like it'll be another mildy cold winter so I want to make sure I'm conditioning them correctly.

lol, I hope that is a joke too haha

@davichan, what sort of procedures do you take for preserving your leather boot collection? As far as conditioning and and maintence is concerned?

Thanks, I'm really happy with them so far.

Crappy cell pics @ work. These are my Ascots after about a month of wear.

Awesome fit.

Just purchased the Standard Belt in brown and I must say it's awesome and super sturdy.

Although, because it's so dark, now I kind of wish I would have purchased it in natural with black hardware. Maybe next time.

APC NS 31, NC 32. Best way to find out your size, IF you want yours to look like mine, is measure your 33 NC waist and buy the corresponding RAW measurement. Example; say your tagged 33 NC measures 35" (17.5" across), then look up on Self Edge's SE05BSP chart, look at the RAW waist measurement and then buy that size. The fact you are a 33 NC makes me think you are a 35.5" waist so buy the tagged 34 (35" pre soak waist). Hope that helps.

Ok awesome, thanks for the advice. I'm usually a 32 in NS, so this goes along with you're saying as well.

Do you have any other fits pics also?

a.khan meant SE05BSP (Bomb Shit Pussy if you are wondering).

Try on a pair, whatever fits nicely (not too tight, not too loose), then hot soak for skinny fit. It will be tight to start with but from experience, 3XXX denim stretches back to raw within a couple of days. For reference: I'm a 34 waist, went with a tagged 34 (pre November lot measured 34", so shrink from tagged size. New lot are shrink to tagged size so I'd now buy a tagged 33) and mine look like this:

Have you ever worn APC NS or NC? If so, what size did you purchase in those? I personally am a 33 tag size in NC, so I'm trying to gauge what size I'd get of the BSP based on what you said here.

Anyone have any experience with these? If so, can you post a picture of how it hangs from the belt?

those are beautiful man

You're a beautiful man.

Yeah I'm getting them all from Context.

ns 32: waist: 34, rise: 11, thigh: 11.25, knee: 9, leg opening: 8

nc 33: waist: 34, rise: 11, thigh: 11.75, knee: 8, leg opening: 7.75

So up top is basically the same, but it's slimmer below the knee.

Theoretically this should work, if they truely do fit the same up top.... :|

I would be happy with a slimmer fit in the calves and a smaller leg opening. I usually wear vans and I feel like an 8 leg opening is almost too big for me.

My calculations with the NC vs the NS are correct, I hope? I know it's a different cut of jean, I'm just hoping it fits similar (or the same) up top and then just a bit more in on the calves.

I'm getting them online, if I was in the store I wouldn't have this issue lol

I'm thinking of two other options, give me your opinion please. Since I'm displeased with the calf area, I was thinking either the PS size 32 or NC size 33.

The NC size 33 is exactly the same up top, thigh is slightly larger and knee is 1 inch smaller, while leg openning is .25 inches smaller.

So this (SHOULD) fit similar with a smaller calf area.

The PS has an inch lower rise, so I'm not too keen on that. But the sizing is similar in the PS 32.

So, I'm thinking maybe a NC size 33 might work nice because it'll fit similar up top and come in tighter on my calves.

Have any fit pics? They will stretch out, so I think you may be ok.

I'm in a similar situation but mine button up all the way, I think I should be having more of an issue with not being able to, to account to stretch.

that fit is the best yet. keep em.

Don't think I should size down 1?

I'm not a fan of how they are fitting in the calves.

I was thinking size down 1 or maybe go with a NC in size 33, since the sizing is similar but a tighter fit on the bottom.

Advice?

These are NS size 32.

This is the only pair of APCs I've had so far that fit. Before this I tried the NC in size 31 and the PS in size 30.

My issues now is I feel like it's too loose in the calves. But fits great in the top block.

I'm looking for some good tips to start out leather crafting. I'd like to start off a new hobby and try and hand craft something small at first (bracelets and maybe wallets)

Does anyone have any good resources, websites or tips on this? I'm trying to find a place to buy undyed and untanned natural leather and also a good place to find some start tools.

I've been searching the forum and I figured maybe this is the best place to ask.

Thanks

The leg opening on the Rescue is too large for me. Keep in mind when I say I wear a 32 in Levis, I usually wear 510s and 511s.

I wear a size 32 in Levis and Diesels. So I sized down 2 with the PS and 1 with the NC.

So maybe I should go with 31 or 32 with NS, I guess. Or find a different jean company >

Problem is I have big legs from sports and a smaller waist.

Ok, after trying a 30 in PS with no avail, I'm trying a 31 in NC. I think this one is too tight too. Any advice? I'm thinking 30-31 in NS.

I could button the PS in size 30, I could try to get these up. But I don't know if it's worth the effort.
