Recommendation on Stonewash/light denim (pics) - Page 2

the SBC in that wash actually measure TTS. i.e. a 34 will measure 34 at the waist. the thighs are small. on straights you could go down a size or two.

Yeah, the thighs are usually my concern as well. As long as they measure around 12" on the W32, I should be okay. Are your W34 even less than 12"?

Thanks,

I have the slim boots in 32x32. The waist was about 33" new and have stretched out to 34" aligned and pulled tight. The thighs on them are 11.75".

PS "Blue Grey"

Just bought a pair of the steel blue. I've had good experience with APC and at $105 it seemed like good value for the price. Thanks for the link.

Understandable, just posting up an alternative purchase location to what M-C posted. They are "unwashed light indigo" so they may eventually end up where you want them if you have the time and patience.

I also had in mind this APC PS from them a while back, but unfortunately APC is no longer offering this wash.

Acne always has some great washed options, and most can be had on sale right now all over the place, including their webstore. These Mics were my favorite when I tried them on IIRC, and I used to have a pair years ago that might have been the Max? or maybe I used to have the Max and recently tried the Mic? whatever, they're a cool wash and good fit.

Anybody want to comment on the washed Acne jeans in terms of quality for those who have handled? Hopefully there are not as weak as old newspaper. Is the ROC fit more skinny or slim? The website indicates that it runs TTS in waist and I wear W32 in R&B and Nudie AJ. So, probably a W32 in these, hopefully they aren't too tight in the thigh.
