To fit a size 30, you need a 34" waist . which is hard to believe by seeing your pics.

i wear my jeans on my lower waist so that's probably why i wear a larger waist size.. i measured around 33. my nudies have stretched to 34 and these apc's are 33.5 right now

hmmmm i mean you seem as skinny as me. I remember when i was at APC i basically had to size down 4. everyone's body fit is different. but honestly, if you like the fit who cares what i think

k thx. but is there any way to get rid of the saggy butt/boxy look without sizing down? i don't see anyone else really complaining about this..

i think i'll keep tailoring as a last resort. would a tailor be able to shorten the back rise without messing anything else up?

that fit blows, i've seen anti-fit 501s that look better in the ass area. if you can still return them, i'd absolutely do so and get a smaller pair.

i have apc ns in size 30...both indigo and black

and they both are now 34" in the waist and fit great

so i agree with his post

FYI No need to be a dick to the dude asking for advise.

When I bought my NS, they were super tight and snug in all areas. Now after a few months they fit perfect and are super soft and contoured to my body. I only sized down three though

one thing your can do If you can't return them, is to manually roll the jeans inside and out, until the denim breaks in a little, then it should smooth out an boxyness

My new cures. I've been wearing them for two weeks. This picture is from the first day i got them..

They're boxy because you wear your jeans low.

[Guest amon goth]

my apcs still squeeze my nuts so hard that my bondage suits no longer have any effect on me and now because of that my gf wants me to stop wearing them so our sex life can be revived

what do to

[migel]

^^Size down 1 of course

[Guest amon goth]

i dont trust bitches named migel with no u after the g.

shady motherfucker

[migel]

ha.. Chill dude. It's friday.

[chenmeister]

thx guys. and yeah, they were boxy because i was wearing them low.

this is what i'm going for

and from the same guy, these are his NS new

and after washes

his NS are noticeably baggier than mine when they're new (so i don't really think i need to size down more?), but they don't seem boxy or saggy even though he's wearing them low.

[snuff_daddy]

brass knuckles....must be a tuff dewd

[Guest amon goth]

brass knuckles will instantly homofy any jeans

[evisu 2000]

yo what's the sizing dif between black and indigo new standards

jeep says to size down 1 from indigo size but i'm already rockin 25s

[aqhong]

^ Blacks stretch less than indigos, so if anything, you should be sizing up from your indigo size, not down. Generally it's okay to go with the same size, though, unless you relied a lot on stretch when sizing your indigo pair (i.e. sized down a lot, say 3 or more).

he is wearing them much tighter than you are wearing your's

[jayel]

they're slimmer than yours by a little, i'd say you could size down one or two more to achieve the that particular fit and all those pics except for one are after they have been stretched out.

if you like how they look on you, thats fine but it'll be a different fit.

[tyang]

for those wondering about dry cleaning they dry denim i pulled the trigger today after much uncertainty.

effects:

- no shrinking

- denim isn't as stiff anymore

- They feel a little thinner (probably because it took out all the starch)

- Fades them a little (in a good way)

- Fit is the same

- Some of the creases became... softer, i don't really know how to describe it

All in all i'm fine/happy with the way it turned out so there's no need for concern for those of you afraid of dry cleaning/doing anything vaguely resembling cleaning

pics coming

[ioos]

Did you take some before/after pics? I was actually thinking about dry cleaning mine. I steam cleaned them a couple of weeks ago. It helped with the stink at first, but then it came right back.

[chenmeister]

alright thanks guys. i'm gonna size down one.

Anybody have a pair of new/slightly used Black NS size 29 they'll sell or trade?

[tyang]

i'll get back to you on that, my sister stole my camera ahaha. there really aren't any adverse effects. It takes out the stiffness without screwing with the indigo. and it's summer... so it actually worked out great since they also feel a little thinner. the combination of the starch and... grime from the last year made my jeans feel like shit. Dry cleaning is safe

where can i get a pair of raw black petit standards?

[Anton C]

yeah

they don't stock them anywhere, not even apc.fr

are they discontinued?

[droalex]

Dry cleaning didn't take away any of the creases right?
