APC denim

[rhythmandsound]

32 in pre-shrunks is pretty small.

I'm normally like a 36 in pre-shrunks and a 32 in English. Rescue are even bigger so i'd wear like a 31 Rescue probably.

So for you i'd go for like a 28 English or a 27 Rescue but they don't even make 'em that small in Rescue.

[Geowu]

yep... they size range is way to big! imagine what a problem it must be to Japan!

[showbiz00ditc]

sick ... n APC website actually has a 28.... thanks for the sizing info... now... because i clicked North America on the first APC.fr page... im guessing all the prices are american dollars?

Just got my APC rescues size 29. They fit perfect right now. In 6 months, how are they gonna fit when I wash them in hot?? Aren't they going to shrink by a lot? I know some people never wash them, so I can see how that would work. But isn't it the transformation wash that makes em special after 6 months or longer?

[showbiz00ditc]

what size are you in a standard levis preshrunk to have the 29 rescues fit?

[wild_whiskey]

Nope, they wont shrink too much. Just a little bit, but if they are a tiny bit tight they will stretch out.

[Serge d Nimes]

They wont't shrink any more than they will stretch out again.

Does anyone actually read any of these posts. I think this has been mentioned like 100 times already!

Thanks! Sorry, I didn't think that was posted before I guess I wasn't reading carefully enuff.

I wear a size 32 normally in jeans, never wore 501's before, so not sure about that.

[Geowu]

the wash in 6 months or more will take a lot of indigo out (especialli when compared to the raw-state) and make the jeans more light blue (I guess), especially on the creases. But if you wait enough that will happen anyway (maybe with less light-blue color), even if you don't wash them at all.

Just wanted to thank the fine folks in this thread for introducing me to APC jeans. I ordered them from their official site Sunday night, and received them on Thursday. VERY nice jeans! I got the New Standards in a 31. The actual measurements are:

Waist: 15 3/4"

Inseam: 35"

Total length: 43 1/2"

I generally wear a 32 waist, I'm 6'1" and 170 pounds. I found the fit to be a little looser than expected actually. Slim, but not quite as tight as I was expecting. I thought about going down to a 30 waist, but decided to keep these and order the Tight jeans off the site instead. I ordered both a 29 and 30 waist to cover myself, but both are on backorder. Even though the site says "in stock". A little FYI.

Whew! Not bad for my first post. I hope this helped!

[kdh]

Wow, those are true to size, more or less.

[showbiz00ditc]

this is so damn confusing ... with all these size variations. ... apc or someone needs to make a sizing chart

[darknworn]

this sizing thing is $#*&*&% retarded!

[Dangydang]

Does anyone have the measurement for the bottom opening of the Tight/Cure jeans? I already searched, but didn't find anything.

[firebad]

The sizing is pretty rediculous. I went to the A.P.C. store on Mercer in NY to get mine since I figured I'd definitely get it wrong if I ordered online. I normally wear a 29 or 30 and I ended up with a 28 in the New Standards, almost a 27 though it was just a little too tight. That said, besides the sizing these are some nice-ass jeans, great quality, though I did forget to get them hemmed at the store, which sucks.

im waiting on my pair...gettin 36 which i hope fits...i wear 35-36 in just about everything so hopefully these dont come out fitting lame

[sbbbjm]

just wanted let you guys know that you should get your APC's now while they are still $120 a pair. on another forum i read, an APC employee posted that they will be going up to $150 with the new fall collection.

[Serge d Nimes]

Hey, 36 will be too big. I has been stated 100 times in here to go 2-3 sizes down.

Carpe Denim!

[showbiz00ditc]

as you guys have discussed the hell out of APC... youve probably touched on this within the 30 pages... but im curious what the inseam length is in the jeans?

yo kixslf, what did you order? standards or rescues? if you ordered rescues, you should have gotten a 34 if you wanted it a little loose... maybe even a 33 for a just right fit.

That Style Forum thread says Black denim coming for fall? Nice.

Now all I need are those "Inside Out" New Standards and a pair of Black (Unwashed?) New Standards?

[Geowu]

Inseam is around 36

How would those insede out jeans turn out after lots of wear? They're cool.

[showbiz00ditc]

damn 36 eh?... now... should i size down that too?... will it actually be a 34?

[Geowu]

no, actually they all come in 36, so you'll just need to get them hemmed or wear them like that.

I wear them like that

[kdh]

Speaking of hemming. I already hemmed my Rescues (after washing once). Washing made them shrink about 1.5". Anybody know if they'll shrink a little more when/if I wash them again?

I hemmed them .5" longer just in case, but I sort of like the extra length now, so I want to keep it.

PS: My Rescues were like 37" (at least) long when I bought them. Yikes!

[rhythmandsound]

yeah those inside-outs looked interesting...and weren't they just on sale on the site a few weeks back?

[Serge d Nimes]

Talk about blue legs!

Carpe Denim!

[TragicBliss]

Yeah, the Inside Out jeans were on sale for a great price but they don't have anymore of my size in stock. I'm sure I would ruin a good many pairs of socks and boxers in those things... But they seam so sick!

This dude who works at Carve in Costa Mesa has a pair he brought back from Japan. After a little bit of break in those infamous denim "slubs" show up all over the thigh/knee/butt area.

I just want a pair... Seems like fun.

the denim head may not approve, but my unwashed english were getting way to baggy.

threw them in the dryer inside out for 20mins this morn and they have come out nicely - actually almost fit properly again
