Buying some new APC new standards

[Guest The Diplomatic Aristocrat]

In Seven jeans, I'm around a size 28. I was thinking of getting the 26 or 27 waisted APC's. Which one should I go for? And also these jeans are pretty tight right? Not baggy at all?

im a 28 in skinners, i ahvent tried on sevens but ill asume that they are the same. APC sizing is mad wack. go as skinny as you possibly can, i got a 27, which i would sort of button, but i should have squeezed it in for a week and gotten the 26. after a month of wear they will stretch out, and believe me youll wish you ahve gone down a size. they are tight, but they will stretch out until they are just a sort of relaxed tight fit and will stop hugging your nuts. but they are a great jean and they look amazing after 2 months.

chwa?

[Guest The Diplomatic Aristocrat]

Thanks, I think I'll get the 26's. Is 120 bucks a good price for these? New of course.

They are pretty much narrow and slightly tapered. Go with the 26- make sure when you get it that it fits snug, or else it won't stretch out at all.

$120 is as cheap as you can get em basically. The guy in DC denimbar sells em for 120 shipped last time i checked.

He's got a bunch on New Standards on his shelves, I was salivating over them this weekend, while contemplating the new hole in my RRDS, and wondering whether to begin a new project.

And Yes, they're $120.

There were people swarming the store, mostly girls, though there was a guy trying to pick up some Nudies they ordered for him... They're doing brisk business, the web store isn't up yet, but as the owner has posted before, he'll take phone orders.

Alright, so I should go with the size 25's?? It sounds a little too tight for me though >_>

If you wear a 28", i would go with at least a 26". They will stretch for sure, in fact they stretch alot.

I would say if you eventually want a jean that's kinda more saggy and you can wear them down low, then go with the 26". If however, you want a jean that's just formfitting even after you stretch them out, then get the 25". Becareful though, sperm production will definitely be stunted for a while with the 25".

I hate ball squeezing jeans >_>

If I were to get the Slim Jims, what waist size should I get?

[WhoGotMeIntoThis]

argh...all of this frusterates me...I don't know what's going on!

What I would do...is try them on somewhere. Orrrr, find a brand that has a similar waist fit...and try those on. Orrrr, measure your waist (across) and measure the jeans (across). Orrrrr...guess. Shit, one of those has to help you out. Good luck on the jeans and have a damn fine time.

[Guest The Diplomatic Aristocrat]

No APC stores near me, no type of jeans with insanely retarded measuring techniques, the jeans always ****ing have different measurements across

[Sauce]

My final answer is that if you where a 28" in everyother jean (more or less) you want to go with 26", NOT 27".

You would only go for the 25" if you wanna switch up your style to crazy nut huggers.

Get it from denimbar in DC since they only 120 bucks and i'm sure he'll allow returns if it doesn't fit right - but note that if you first get them, fitting right is not critical - they should be snug so they stretch.

[Guest The Diplomatic Aristocrat]

I got some 26's and they are okay around the waste, but they freakin' are bustin' my balls, is there anyway to stretch the crotch area a little in any way? Pr just fix this problem in general?

[marquischacha]

Ok i just got some 27's but wear a 28 usually and they fit pretty lose, i could put my thumb inside them and still have room to stretch out. I'm going to return them because they fit a bit too loose. Is the difference between a 27 and a 26 really that much that they will hug your nuts because the 27 was nowhere near hugging my balls?

[horriblyjollyjinx]

No, a 26 should fit you great.

Can you guys measure the waist of your 26s? For reference, my 27s measure 31" after stretching.

dontcaretoomuchforcrap CANT SKATE!!

[b_mang]

im thinking about getting a pair and after reading all this, i think the 26 waist will fit me. can someone provide some measurements or comparisons to lets say 19cm Dior jeans and modern day levis 501s? i want something like the 19cm diors but maybe JUST A LITTLE BIT more loose. im planning to beat these everyday and would like something sitting low under my hips like them diors. Also, what would be closer to a pair of dior 19cm jeans? the new standard or any other apc model jeans?

[InspectorGadget]

I plan on getting a pair of NS. What size should I get if Im looking for a loose fit in these. I wear a size 29 in JR calis and looking for something a little less slimmer.

[roundhouse]

what about me? what about me? lol

i wear a 28 in slim jim but i should of chosen a 27 instead.

so lets say im a 27 in sjm should i get a 26 new standard or a 25, i want a tight but not super tight fit.

[CaptMomo]

i wear a 27 superslimkims and found sz 26 ns too loose after they stretched out. like they were falling off my ass. but i guess how much it stretches depends on how active you are in them?

[polishmike]

i wear 33 in most of my jeans and have ns also in 33. they did strech out but i always wear a belt so i didnt care much. i also have pretty thick legs so i dont mind the strech. if you have an ass they wont fall off, i'm not fat or anything and the ass in my jeans is just fine.

[renski]

i wear 30 i bought 28 and they didnt fit...i needed a belt..maybe because im too skinny and i dont think i could of handled the tight fit of 27.

[jilla82]

I just got mine in the mail. I got a 33 and the waist could be a tad bit smaller, but im fine w/ that because the thighs and ass are hugging me. If you have a thin lower half go for the smaller sizes, but if you have any kind of ass or thighs i would take that into consideration.

I normally buy 34s or 36s in jeans

[airflight23]

can someone help me out?

i usually wear 30 in all of my jeans

i wear 29 in my nudie thin finns

i would like to wear these slim

so would u recommend a size 28 29 or 30?

i will not wear these everyday

probably 3 days of the week since im gonna rotate them with my nudies.
