    A.P.C. The official thread for APC denim sizing and other questions.

    Does APC still run its trade in discount at its NYC store? I remember that back in '08 they did when I bought my current NS's. Those NS's are on life support and I'd like to trade them in and perhaps get the discount on a new pair.

    Does the APC store in NYC still run the trade in discount? If so, what is the procedure there?

    Boots: What are you guys wearing with demim?

    These are a little more ostentatious -read: not workboots or engineer boots- than most of the common pairings on this forum. Yet, I think these in a blue suede could look pretty sick with raw faded or new raw denimz. They're handmade in Turkey, apparently...

    A.P.C. The official thread for APC denim sizing and other questions.

    Sorry maybe i wasn't clear. My jeans stretched out about an inch through the seat in about 3 weeks. They are now sitting comfortable at a measured 31. Most of that stretching in the waist was completed after about a month. The final stretching took place in the thighs and that happened over the...

    A.P.C. The official thread for APC denim sizing and other questions.

    I've had my ns for about two years now. They have been the "old ironsides" of my denim lineup. I am also a size 30 waist, and bought a size 28 in new standards, and also couldnt button them past about the second button when I first got them. I contemplated sending them back, but I decided to...

    Black Lace-Up boots...

    I got them for about 45, they were hovering at 25 for the whole auction until the end. I would definitely reccomend using a sniper service like gixen to make sure you get the last bid in. There are a similar pair up for auction still for the next few days. Same pair of boots a half size smaller...

    Black Lace-Up boots...

    I just got these boots for a pretty price on ebay. I wanted to see what the feelings on them are. I will probably be removing the silly frill on the front of the boot. I think they could work well as a casual black boot.

    I have a jean...(The Ultimate Jean Thread For Beginners) - ask questions here.

    So I've been jonesin' for a pair of black APC NS, however, they are out of stock at both context and the APC online store. Is there any acceptable jeans that are similar to them in both terms of fit and durability. The only condition is that they be raw, blacks. Price range from 100-200...

    Should I or shouldn't I buy... (clothing item)?

    Exactly, they look awesome and are definitely unique, but not very versatile. I would wear them with either APC NS or H&M sliqs. And they wouldn't be my go to everyday, for that I have a pair of the LLBEAN Katahdins. They may be worth it for the variety, especially on sale

    Calling all LLBean Katahdin Iron Works Boots owners

    The boots definitely take a few hard wearings to soften them up. But once they do they are like butter. I think the best thing is to rub them down with some mink oil every couple months. This really softens up the leather, waterproofs them and helps to dampen the dusty coloring. I just hit...
