Washing != weak fades.. I've seen a couple pair of jeans on sufu that had incredible fades that were washed regularly from the get go...

[Forest Fire]

thanks aleopold. i washed my cures within two months i got them, it was summer time and they got fucking nasty from all the sweat. even after the wash i made sure to soak them once they started to get gross. it's just that people gotta know when it's time to wash.

washing/soaking your jeans isn't the end of the world..

can someone possibly post a photo of the design located at the top button of all apc jeans/pants ?

i'd just appreciate some assistance, i have yet to find one on my own.

thanks.

so i posted pics of my jeans a page back and i'm pretty sure i'm going to wash them within the next few weeks.

how should i wash them? tub or washer? i'm going for a high contrast fade that still retains the darkness of the indigo. opinions?

machine wash them please. they're pretty nasty.. hot/hot wash cycle with two or three pumps of regular detergent. make sure the detergent doesn't have bleach.

[shufon]

Is that a new button or something? The center of that one looks different than all my APCs.

[Forest Fire]

i believe so, i used to have a pair of new standards that had this button, but traded it for a pair of cures that just have a plain silver button.

a cold hand wash is probably what you're after.

Here are my APC Petite Standards. Been wearing for maybe 5 months with one cold wash last month.

Fit:

Front and back:

Some close-ups:

Starting to come out pretty nicely if I do say so myself. The fit is a little tight but not uncomfortable in the crotchal/thigh region ...I think some reinforcing will be necessary soon. These things really started fading quickly after the first wash.

Oke, so like two/three years ago I purchased my first pair of APC. New Cures size 31. Nicely sized down and fit snugly in the waist, however the thighs and calves were a bit tight. In fear of it not stretching enough I exchanged them for a poorly sized pair of NS.

Today however I'm contemplating a new pair of APC's. Do you guys think those New Cures would have stretched to my liking? I know they stretch a lot in the waist but what about elsewhere? And if they don't, would a same size in a Petit Standard be better for my legs?

Thanks

both previously posted fits look great!

got a pair of 33 NS in. Also tried 32s but I couldn't button the top two buttons and they looked pretty ridiculous. Wearing the 33s now and they feel and look great (imo). I'll try and get some fit pics up soon.p soon.

Love your fades, Shaungustine.

Some real vintage APCs showing up of late

[shawngustine]

@SwedeAlex thanks dude =)) its tight thus the whiskerss

@SpamNinja if i'm not wrong its 3 hot soak and 3 machine wash, first wash at 5 mths and nice fit ! but i'm not liking the butt sag though, reminds me of my MIJ, cause the 19 cm is same as new cure the rise is longer so the butt sag if not tight enough though. but overall nice fit !!

@samcam thanks man !!! ^^

[sickntired]
