emmitbrown 7,064 Posted March 5, 2008 My shop just got our first shipment of APC's and I grabbed the NS in the blue and black. Ive been wearing the blue NS in 29 for about 10 months now, and love em, there seems to be slight differences in the tags and buttons in the model i got then and the shipment we just got. I was wondering if anybody else has noticed any difference in the newer APC's.I was also a bit sad to see the black NS weren't selvage denim. I thought they made them in selvage? The ones I got I sized up and got a 31 but the material is notciabley less stiff then the indigo models as well. just as a heads up and general info. I noticed that the buttons were different on the black NS when they came out. They were cheap looking and feeling. Maybe they are using those buttons on the indigo NS now. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coldsnap 403 Posted March 5, 2008 Just some things I observed:Coldsnap, did you steal all that neg rep from me? Give it back. No way I've earned this... Actually wait I havn't... all of my neg reps are mostly from passer bys seeing I have a red dot and negging me for no reason but I guess thats a common welcoming here. Anyways, I've been doing some heavy work while wearing my New Cures and they are wearing in really nice. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

krn.nyc 20 Posted March 8, 2008 Hey guys, I hope I don't clutter the thread with more useless questions. I actually have a year-old size 29 APC New Standard, and its been washed once. I sized down my from my sz 31 waist. I kind of miss the silhoutte of the NS, and the fact that its cheap so I don't really have to worry that much about ruining them. I'm currently wearing the FH 310 and I'm thinking about picking up another pair of NS. Do you guys think it's worth it to get another raw pair of NS, just as a backup pair to my F310s? I love the Flatheads but it's kind of beginning to stink so I need a backup. I'm not sure if it'll be a waste of money just getting an exact same sillhoute as the washed pair I already have... I'm considering sizing down 3 sizes to a sz 28, just so I can get a different look. You guys think its worth it? Also wondering, is it necessary to soak the APC jeans immediately after receiving them? That was the case with the Flatheads since it was not sanforized, but would you guys recommend me to wear them brand new, or give them a quick soak before breaking them out? (Yes, I've already have experience with APC NS, but I think I shouldn't have soaked them my first time around) Also, I should just pick up Woolite Black to wash them? Anyone know where to get the detergent??? I couldn't find any at my local grocery. Thank you and sorry for the long post. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freecat 1,123,982 Posted March 8, 2008 dude, read the faq, you'll get your answer. Wash your jean if they stink. About the question of whether or not you should get a backup pair, it's up to you. But it's always great to have a second pair in case of problem, to do extreme stuff with style, or just to switch sometimes. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
