i'm going to assume i downsized one. was never really certain with my size... i know i was between 33-34.. so i got the tagged 32 which is a 33. so.. i think i actually didn't really downsize one since they buttoned with no problem?

APC NS, 3rd day of wear. Usual size 29, sized down to 27.

hi

my first posting here at SF in a long while.

Just got myself a 32 NC, usually wears a 35-36 jeans, when i go to the store, i couldnt even button up a single button, but the store owner reassured me that it will stretch alot. Im nt too sure either, now i can button the bottom 2 buttons, but it really stil feels rather tight on the thighs. i just got them yesterday. What do you guys think? will it expand to my waist size? anyone has experienced something similar to me?

[enak]

I'm a regular 32", got a 30 in teh NC, managed to get all buttons done and is fairly tight. If i went one size down further i probably wouldn't have been able to do all of em up. I suggest you get one size up if u still can't get all of em up.

mm, hows the fitting for you right now? did it expand one size bigger than your actual size?

have a question of my apc

is it honeycomb process a lil bit faster than whiskering

my apc NC is 2 months old , but it seems like the honeycomb looks more obvious than the whiskering(the whisker is just not on the point) i dun rock them baggy , i just rock them up to my waist

recently got my apc new cures also, the fit on the waist, crotch and thighs are great but it gets really tight around the leg, and lol 34' inseam is really quite long for me, is it better to wash cold or warm for max shrinkage on the inseam?

[kenthenoob]

i believe warm soak releases more of the indigo, but shrinks it more than cold soak?

sorry i'm a noob.

i also think i could've done a tagged 31 as well.. oh well.

[chronoaug]

Soak it for an hour or two in water as hot as you can get it in your tub. Indigo release comes mainly from agitation, so don't keep poking and playing with the jeans as they're soaking, or run the water a bunch on the jeans while soaking and you shouldn't lose much color. You might get an inch or maybe 2 that way, but if they're just way too long, just hem them. Also, i thought APCs came lightly starched so soaking would mainly just wash the starch off making it slightly harder heavy contrast if that's what you're going for.

btw,

the only black pair of apc jeans coming up will be the new standard. Where did people get there black RAW cure' from?!?

[chris_n]

how much did the thighs stretch out for you guys on the new cures? they are still pretty tight for me!!

[chronoaug]

Just give it time. If you want them to stretch faster like with all jeans, wear them in the shower for a second to dampen them, and then walk or ride your bike to the store. Jeans stretch quicker and easier when wet.

[Dab0]

i really just slept in mine to stretch it a bit, fits even better now, but i still have this fat knee bulge, and mines indigo.

[jayrock]

I'm debating whether I should hem my New Standards or not. The denim is so stiff right now that the stacks don't look that great. I dunno if I should cuff for awhile in hopes of loosening up the denim to create better stacks, or just have them hemmed a little bit.

*edit* Everyone's ridiculous.

[M.O.A]

you guys are ridiculous

[kenthenoob]

my tagged 32 got ridiculously big.

[kenthenoob]

oh! since denimbar was mentioned earlier, does anyone know if the sizes listed are the tagged size or the actual measured sizes?

[chronoaug]

tagged 12345

[bouwnt]

my tagged 32 got ridiculously big.

measurements?

particularly waist/thigh?

debating 31s vs 32s at this point.

[gmail]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but APC doesn't currently offer any black raw denim, correct?

sorry about the bad/grainy pics...but you get the idea....

size 28 new standard...wanted to get a 27 but they didnt, so i rock them kinda baggy i like it tho...5'9 155pounds....about a month of solid wearing. Honeycombs are coming along really nicely, crotch/knee fading are just starting.

[paulista]

2 weeks of being worn basically every day. I sized down 2, from a 30 to a 28. The waist has stretched out to about a 31 or so.. fits very comfortably but not sloppy. The stacking looks a bit weird on my right leg, hopefully the denim will soften up a bit as I wear it and it will stack a little more naturally. The natural light really reduces the contrast in the picture, the combs and whiskers look a lot more defined in real life...

i'm not really sure...i think 28 or 29

i wore 29 in nudie bootcut ola, 28 in girls rogans, 30 in diesel

28 in julian red cali were too small/tight on me so i had to sell them to the singer of dance gavin dance....I tried on a 27 ns a few months b4 i got my 28 pair and that would have been ideal for me, but they were out of 27s....so the 28s have a little bit of a more bagger feel but thats cool kuz i'm trying to not wear skin tight pants any more lol

The pretentious posting contributes nothing to the thread.

Does APC denim come in all lengths or just one inseam length?

If only one, what is it?
