  1. Just got my Liminal pants in. I'm 5'10, 175lb with large thighs and booty from squatting. Size 33 fit me perfectly. Roomy in the thigh and have a pretty aggressive taper below the knee. They're also really long and are meant to be stacked. Really cool details on these. They have a water repellent coating over the cotton material and water just beads and slides off. 

     

    Sizing advice, I would go with your regular pant size, not your vanity sized APC's or jeans. If anything, measure your waist and compare it to the measurements on the Arcteryx site. These fit similar in the top block to Club Monaco Davis Slim chinos in my opinion. I suspect the fabric might stretch a bit with some wear since they're cotton, but don't take my word for it.

    It's really great to hear from other people with big thighs. I have absolutely massive quads and a huge ass from oly lifting and 99% of pants are just too tight in the thigh and give me a ghetto booty. I may try and snag a pair myself. Hopefully the Georgia heat and black pants won't lead to a heat stroke.

     

    With that said, those pants look great on you man

  2. Anyone has any experience with aether's outerwear?  I'm thinking about getting the stormy jacket for my wife in black: http://www.aetherapparel.com/shop/womens/city/stormy-womens/

     

     

     

    Anyone knows the fabric they use? looking closely at the pictures it looks like it's ventile cotton. In the zoomed pictures it looks like it catches lint like crazy (like ventile does, hate my supermarine shoes because of that). Fabrics that catch lint in black are horrible when you have two cats.

     

    Their website says the material for the stormy is "Bonded italian cotton fabric"

     

    I've seen pictures of it on other sites and it looks less techy and more normal looking material wise. Other wise looks nice.

    As Piece said though, it is pricey.

  3. Does Dior Denim get washed differently? or is it the same as APC? [soak inside out in water and a little woolite black, rise, hang dry.] Thanks.

    Its really however you want to wash your jeans. The fact that APC apparently has an exact way they tell you to wash their jeans is a little funny to me.

    You can do that, or you can hand wash them, or you can throw them in the washer and let them do their thing man. Theyre jeans. Worry about them less and wear them more.

  4. Finally found some of these online, now the hard decision, picking which color I want :(

    Ordo, I don't know how my running will turn out so I figured if I did get more serious into it I could always go hit up a running shop :). Appreciate the advice everyone!

  5. Hate to ask and not contribute anything, but does anyone know where I can get any of the FW12 shoes? Loved the color pallete of them and just found out about them.

    Also, I feel like this would be a good place to ask(sorry if it's not appropriate to the thread). I'm looking to getting into running a bit more, which sole would be better for the free runs, the 3,4, 5?

    Thanks for the help :)

  6. erm sort of defeats the purpose of a waterproof shell if it's worn underneath a woollen overcoat when its raining.

    Was thinking that too, keep his head nice and dry though ;)

    Unless...someone's about to come out with a tech peacoat....

  7. I think the fit looks hella good man.

    I'm also about to start hitting the gym and worry and growing out of any clothes I buy soon :P

    Doesnt look like there is a whole lot of room to grow in those.

  10. ^^ i don't know what they're doing when they say that apc denim is sanforized.. maybe i'm the only one but my ns were pretty NOT sanforized

    You are definitely the minority there then. APCs are for sure sanforzied unless you had the one in a million pair that SOMEHOW managed to slip through the cracks and went out unsanforized

    PS: That doesn't happen

  11. ^aren't they supposed to look the same? just some crinkles here and there? Or did I miss something

    Naw man, I hear the no fade blacks actually get sicker fadez than the DiorxEternal collab!

  12. How much did you taper them man, that looks ridiculously good.

    Im in the same boat as you, used to skinnier denim and now Ive got a pair of 710s that are baggier. I thought that maybe after the first wash they would shrink up but, no luck. So im looking to get them tapered

  13. Which has a more contrast in fade? Xx-011 or xx-013? I'm in a dilemma in which to buy. I'm pretty sure the measurements are almost identical, right? My waist is like 30.5-31 but I can fit into a 30. Should I go for a size 29 raw in either? I dont want the leg opening to be any bigger than 7in.

    If you dont want the leg open to be any bigger than 7 for either of them you cant go bigger than a size 28
