APC denim

[travisio]

i have a sizing question but it's slightly different. i wear 32-33 in most jeans (i'm wearing levis 501 32/34, they were tight at first but they stretched out so they're comfortable but still look a little slim). the waist size isn't really what limits me though, i have 31ish inch waist but i have farily large thighs (24"). i was wondering whether i should go for the 31 or the 30. i'm leaning towards 30 because i like it when my jeans fit a little slim but i don't want them skintight after stretching; i'd prefer if they weren't skintight ever but i'm willing to sacrifice comfort and heterosexuality of reputation for a couple weeks to get some beautiful jeans.

so what do you guys think? oh yeah, i'm debating between the new standards and the straight jeans. i think i'd like the new standards more because i like the way they bunch up when i wear narrow shoes rather than dragging on the floor, is the difference between the two more of a taper thing or the whole leg?

Go for the 30. You'll be fine. It will stretch a lot. If you do have large thighs you might want to look into rescues though. It's all preference. As far as the leg opening, ns is barely taper and the rescue is a true staight leg.

IMO the material used on APC NS is just not that stretchy. Yes, it will stretch - but only barely and in a bit of a wonky and cumbersome way. You will do yourself a world of good by sizing down only because their sizing is wacky, not because the jeans are stretchy.

my new standards. i really like the fit, but the waist stretched out a little too much i think.

[drapygo]

Mmm, I'm really thinking of getting a APC jean. But which one? I've been looking at the "unisex" one and the "standard one." I'm (i think) 6'1 and very skinny. So I've been thinking the "unisex" one would fit great on me, but (if anyone knows its fit) is it like the jeans that stick to your skin? (haha, I don't know much but it doesn't have that "red selvage" thing that the standard has.) eh...

[apu]

might be faster if u search for APC new standard or new cure under superdenim section

i think the new cures (unisex) isnt that tight but its a good fit

[VDSUPREME]

Whats the differences between the slim jeans and narrow jeans up on apc.fr ?

narrow jeans = New Cure, am I right?

What about the slim jeans? Anyone care to enlighten me? Thanks.

[morning_musume]

im about to buya pair of new cures in size 28

will i be fine

i wear size 28-29 in most jeans

i like my jeans slim

[dav]

I'd probably go down to 27. I'm usually a 30 but went down to 28.

[Icarus]

I've got a really slim fit with the New Cures, I had to size down three sizes, 30-27.

[dav]

Yeah, I wanted to go down to a 27 but I can barely get in the 28's! Still can't get the top 2 buttons done.

I normally wear a 30 and i got a 28..they've stretched out nicely in a month and fit perfect now...its best to go down at least one size from your normal waist

[morning_musume]

thanks for the response

if i get a size 27 in the new standards

will i be fine?...i wear 28 in other jeans

sup,

any spots in nyc where i can cop APC jeans, been lookin around but i guess in all the wrong places.

also, do u go down 2 size because it eventually stretches, or they jus come big?? cuz i prefer my jeans easy fit.

Go for a 26 ... The might be a tad uncomfortable at first but theyll stretch out well enough over time.

[viv1984viv]

this has been covered so much, ive been wearing my apcs for 3months now, basically they were pretty tight when i first got them, i would take them off to sit down for a meal. Now I wear my jeans below my waist, they measure about 33 or 34 now and are hanging off my hips like mad, i have to wear em with a belt and they ruckle up alot so the front button falls below my belt. Also the knees stretch out like mad too.

So.. if you have the chance to try them on size down as much as possible, i sized down one size and mine just look like regular fit jeans now what with the legs and waist stretching. Im on new standards by the way.

That said they are a great budget selvedge jean with a modern cut.

Like others have said. I think you should get a 26. They will stretch out nice.

[Franklin]

oh wow, there was one in soho? lol

ok thanx ill check it out.

how many different types of styles do they have? from the looks of it looks like majority are new standards.

[shagnscoob]

does anyone have experience with the overdyed black versions of the jeans yet? I asked a long time ago but no one had em yet hahahaha

[CaptMomo]

hey,

i have a pair of black overdyeds. after fading they seem to have a bluish tinge to it. not sure why.

whats the deal with sizing and stretching? and pics maybe?

[CaptMomo]

hey, the sizing's same as the raws i guess. got a s26, wished i got a size 25 instead. as for stretching, mine stretched out real quick. really sorry for the crappy reply and pics.

[shagnscoob]

do you have a pair of raws? (if you do what size do you wear?)

[CaptMomo]

i wear a 25 in raws, and they fit better.

I wear a 32-33 ish in most jeans and so i was wondering if a 29 would be better of a 30 would be better for me to get in the Rescues. I originally wanted to get New Standards but i feel like my thighs wont be able to handle them and im 6'2, 165 lbs. I decided to get the rescues so what size would be better to get, a 29 or a 30? thanx for the help...

I first thought the same thing you did on the new standards as I have pretty big thighs. I bought a 31 in NS (I'm usually a 32-33) and they fit perfect. They were a little tight at first but after wearing them straight for 5 days they have stretched a bit and fit very nice.

[damienos]

i wear 32W in rrds.Couldn't even button up the top button at first, but after a few days, they were comfortablly tight. Now after4 months, they've stretched to quite loose but i like the look. Got a APC NS in 30W. tight at first but could button up all the way. They streched to comfortable in about 30 sec.! The problem is the thighs...when i bend down... they looked stressed at the side seams- can see the whites threading (i dun really have big thighs ) So if you've got bigger thighs... should get 31W i guess.
