APC denim

[test]

^how many sizes would that be? i'm sure if you sized down 3, you wouldn't really need a belt to keep your jeans up, no?

why are you guys so against wearing a belt?

if you wear one, you never have to wry about the waist stretching out too much...

[constant struggle]

i personally dont like belts much, just another thing for my shirts to get stuck on, since i like wearing a bit longer of shirts...

also just how they feel in general is annoying to me

i'm not really against wearing a belt, just that lovinthee47s didn't really make clear his point. belts are in fact quite troublesome when taking a piss, other than that, its fine with me.

the guy told me that even if you wear a belt the denim will strech even when i sized down 3 (apc ns sz 27 real waist 30)

so in sense wearing a belt in inevitable (yeah belts can become troublesome when taking a piss

4 months of wear..nastiness

[bustinxjustin]

I just got my NS in a size 29 in the mail and I can't button up the top two lol. I'm gonna try to work them in and stretch them out a little so they fit perfectly.

They will fit perfectly on me..... won't they? I sure hope so.

They should stretch to be fine in the waist if you can get them buttoned eventually. But make sure the crotch is okay.

you might want to put a weight on it so it's not all floating..

[herpsky]

From 2005 F/W (I think)

jeans made with "inside-out" denim

kinda interesting. fits like levi's 606. slightly tapered silhouette

[TragicBliss]

I remember those Herpsky. They sold those online and in Japan. I'm not sure if they were sold anywhere else, though they probably were.

[rocco]

I have those as well, bought online. I also have a jeans jacket and a pair of 'workers pants' made from the same, somewhat lightweight denim (no selvage), but then outside out if yuo know what I mean, bought at the same time. Those three garments are the only ones by APC in my collection (and I have quite a few APC items) that are made in Japan, as far as I know.

[herpsky]

japan exclusive... that's what i thought

macbook picture but you get the idea

7ish months, unwashed until 6

[paulista]

New Standards downsized 2 (from 30 to a 28). Just under 4 months of wear. Nothing impressive in the fading but i really love the fit. Sorry for the blurriness but the flash washes out the colour.

[Reeezy724]

At ABOUT 4 months of work. Still got a longgg way to gooo.

Wish i could have sized down 1 or 2 but oh well.

Anybody got any suggestions on what i should use to fade with on the left back pocket? Cant think of anything lol.

[kenthenoob]

zelah, you dirty whore

lol.

@reeezy: you could use your cell phone or keys... or get another wallet.. something liek a coin purse thing?

[newaesthetic]

I swear someone on here has used a pair of brass knuckles for a backpocket fade. Do that, serious badass, heh.

The NC's are finally starting to show some decent fade down in the stacks, but a lot more in the crotchal area. It worries me a bit that they might blow out before I get as much wear as I like, but we'll see Had them for 3 months now, but I'd say they've probably only been worn just over half that time. The Diors are worn less than them, but more so than the Julian Red's or the Philippa K's. They also haven't stretched out as much as the Diors, which I thought was kinda odd. Anywhore, I'll try to get a bit of an update done this weekend.

All looking good lately, and I'm really starting to feel the fit Ken, wish I could pull something like that off as well.

[Jackboot]

@ newaesthetic: you're in Ontario - where did you get your NCs?

[newaesthetic]

Girlfriend bought em at TNT. They've got more selection there than anywhere else (Holts only has indigo NS last time I checked).

[Gabriel]

there are 'new' items on the apc web site including black jeans but I don't know if they're really new, or which shape they are, maybe cure?

[cyberdome]

wore my apc's NS for quite some time now, not too often though .. but the waistline is still a little tight for me, im a 30, and i think i sized down too much, till 27.

the knee's, thighs area area all nicely stretched out, the waist part is still a little tight for me

any idea how to stretch it even more on the waist area? thanks.

[FrostIsMarried]

is that a black raw NS??

how much should i size down if i wana get a skinny fit?

[lilodxd]

^^ generally, 2 = slim, 3 = skinny.

and those are black NS indeed... i wonder how they fade.

[aa&r]

I just got some New Standards and they're REALLY short. Any idea why? Cause i know they're like 34 in length but these feel like 30 or 31 maybe. Do they stretch to a 34 or something? Cause when i don't sag them, they almost like hover above my shoes.

[JonathanFrom508]

how tall are you aa&r?

[aa&r]

About 5'7'' or 5'8''

[bustinxjustin]

That's really odd aa&r... I'm 6' tall and these are really long on me. I feel like somebody probably bought them and hemmed them. Then they probably returned it. Where did you buy them from?

[ImSoFly]

Will my rescues shrink in length at all? There a lil longer than i like. They bunch up alot. Ive had them for almost 3 months now and i wear them 3 times a week. How long before i do the first wash and whats the best way to wash them? I remember seeing sitting in the tub with them is a good way but i cant remember all the details such as how long and warm or cold and how to dry.
