Looking good, dhaddict

Been getting bored with these jeans lately so I figured I'd give them a wash to see what happens. They're in the washer right now. Size 30 NC @ 183 days.

Pre-wash pics:

First two pics are darker than in person, the rest of them are pretty accurate for the color. Will put up post wash and fit pics in a little while.

Does anyone have same sized NC and PS?

i wanna see how do they fit.. if anyone does picture please?

[liannesmiles]

fit pics liannesmiles?

After I repair them haha.

[shufon]

Ok, here are the post-wash pics. These things shrank back to their original size and the contrast came out pretty nice. Will put up fit pics tomorrow when I have sunlight coming through the windows and I can get a decent pic.

Great snug fit, but I gotta say, your PS are just perfect.

I still don't understand how at 5'6, your PS fit so great length wise. I'm 5'6-7 as well, and I feel like I have stacks forever. Must be short legs...

[aleopold]

^ he hemmed them?

Pretty sure he said NS

^Teh fly says otherwise :eek:

Guys, I was referring to his Petit Standards from a few pages ago.

They are not hemmed.

I'll post fit pics of my NS some time. I had those hemmed to 30

PS

[grouse_allergy]

not sure why, but bought a pair of new standards yesterday. still wearing my sam 0500's for the most part, but wanted a throwaway pair. missed that stiff rawness. kinda wishing i held out for a better pair but whatever.

a bit under tts, 33. went a size up from my last pair of apc's. seemed like the sanforization wore off over time and then they shrunk too much for me to wear them.

[asher_roslynn]

LawL conversation mistake, my bad

^ I'd opt for a size smaller, but whichever works

[Jawnzlover]

lol those new standards are hemmed tooo much... one must be blind to not see it. i would turn it up so you can wear the rolled up look but not the nerdy my pants are just to short look;)

[rvoe30]

^Teh fly says otherwise :eek:

yeah my dad always bags on me about the fly. Thats what happened so its whatever. Its pretty loose though. There is probably like .5-1in distance between my body and the button if I pull the waist out (sorry if that is vague). Its like that more my PS, too.

Yeah its a little short. It shrank in after my first wash. Its no big. When i start walking around they sag down a tiny bit and it makes up for it.

I'm also a pretty big nerd so I guess the looks suits me

If anyones interested I'm selling my Black PS : http://www.superfuture.com/supertalk/showthread.php?t=243725

[shufon]

Fit pics as promised. Weather's been rough the last few days so I've got on my bean boots.

[ke1]

Gotta be honest here, the jeans fit perfectly, but the boots aren't doing it for me.

Thick material + clunkyish boots doesn't allow it to blend naturally with the jeans. They're very close to looking like snowboarding boots.

[shufon]

Nah not really worried about styling here, it's just for functionality. This weather is gross

[riskyrukus]

^ actually liking the combination shufon, I'm planning to do the same when winter hits (buying a pair of black bean boots to survive the snow). I assume that's how my apc + bean boots combo will look

[Danny @ Rivet & Hide]

Im into the look, shufun..and just making me want to start on my APCs

[shufon]

Thanks risky and samcam.. you're getting snow in Toronto already aren't you risky? I'm only like 4 hours south of you and we've had snow and rain for the past two days.

[rockon99]

x-post from evo tred..

APC new standards. worn lightly for a few years. didnt really care about washing, which led to the non-contrast. i dig it though. bought them when i was heavier, so theyre pretty baggy on me now. vintage fit? i guess..

This one turned out overexposed, so i had to correct in Lightroom. Colors and contrast are accurate though

fit pics of my NS

This is why I like to see fit pics. :S

[riskyrukus]

we've been slightly hit with a bit (for now just a mix of snow and rain) but its definitely getting too cold too quick

[fightingsleep]

Worn these New Standards for like three months+. They're not very stiff anymore. What would a hot soak do? I've never soaked them before. Would it shorten the length a little? Or should I just hem them? Should I wait to hem them?

[SpamNinja]

Hey guys, one quick question here. I'm the owner of a pair of Cure size 31 (NOT New Cure, just Cure... bought about 2.5 years back) and a NS Size 28.

I know, weird that they differ 3 sizes but the Cure are too big and the NS too small. The top button even came of and the fly is completely warped due to stretching. Originally I was gonna go for a new pair of Cure but they weren't available.

Now they are however and I was wondering what size to go for? 30 or 29? To be honest I'm not looking forward to walking around a month or so with my top button undone but I also don't want them to stretch too big, which my 31's are right now. Not perse in the waist, oke also, but the kneebulging and thighs are what bothers me. Not really evident in the pic below, because they were just washed but after a few wears they stretch back to how they really are and are a bit too big.

Thanks

Ok, so I bought some Petit Standards and I fucked up the sizing. Bottom line is I'm out $150 less whatever I may be able to sell them for. To avoid making the same mistake on my second pair I'm coming to you guys for help. These are 26s and I don't know if I should size up to a 27 or a 28 for a proper fit. These are nearly perfect from the knee down actually but the thighs and the rise are pretty killer. Hard for me to tell just from sizing charts if I should size up 1 or 2. Thanks in advance for any advice.

[shufon]

SQuinn, if you can button them all the way, just wait a couple weeks. APCs stretch like nothing I've ever seen and from my experience (I've had 3 pair) if they're uncomfortable for the first couple weeks then they'll turn out fitting and looking great.
