Skinny APC jeans sizing question

[tommib]

Hello,

I'm new to this forum and the 'project jeans' thing and was wondering about APC sizing.

I've got a pair of Levi's 511 that I love the fit of, they're slim and sit quite low on the waist, although I think I'd like some even skinnier ones. The 511's are 34 waist / 32 Leg, although my actual waist is about 32 (Levi's in general seem to be tighter?)

What size would you guys recommend for skinny APC jeans?

Thanks! Tom.

if your actual waist size is 32, you're gonna wanna get a 31 or in APCs. They tend to be sized a little bigger than they should be.

Cool thanks, what about the leg length? Are they as they should be? Tom

You dont have a choice. They're 36" in length

Thanks for your advice!

I've got the cures/tights. The skinny ones, whatever.

29 or 30 waist in Levis, got a 29 in APCs and they're atleast 1.5-2 sizes too big out of the box. Nice though, no selvedge and tricky to find shoes for, but still cool.

If you wear them low go for one size smaller, two is you want something really slim.

I second the 31, 30 only if they're a project jean you want to keep tight/stretch out.
