Do apc bombers normally fit smaller than the tagged size? I'm wondering how this bomber fits, if anyone owns it here

I'm a M in most clothing but the measurements on this Large jacket seems like it fits as a M better....
700

I have that one. I ended up sizing up to a large, since the sleeves and length was too short in my normal size, medium. Even after sizing up, keep in mind that all their bombers are rather cropped compared to most.

It's not worth more than $250 new imo. And I got it at retail...

It's fitted. The sleeves and lower back doesn't puff out like they do on normal non fashion ma-1's. I'm 6' and 155, 40-41" chest, 17 s2s, and 29.5 midsection.

700


That's a large.

Are APC's that are washed (originally raw) and have little to no whiskering, honeycombs etc... worth considerable less than jeans that have not been been washed or have whiskers etc...

I have 4 pairs that were all washed

3 pairs have little to no whiskering/honeycombs but are still pretty dark

Thanks!

Retail is about $200-220, I've seen pairs going for $120-140 on sale, and rarely some pairs for like $80-120 but only if they're way off the curve sizing or seasonal colors, or more likely the retail is no longer going to carry that model or the whole line. So like yeah, I got a pair of APC PS's for $40, but they were white, tight, and size 27 waist and tucked into a pile at the Barneys outlet mall...

I'm talking about classic raw NS/PS and these are from people selling on local forums.

Just wondering those of you who buy the apc washed jeans (love one of the washes in the current season) one of the biggest problems I have with washed jeans is that I cant freely hem them without ******* up the, well, wash of the hem. Only thing I can do it roll that **** up. Are all ya who rock the washed jeans 6 feet tall or something?

So ya should I buy them if I can only roll them up? Would love to have the option of wearing them both ways but the stacking is out of hand.

Don't buy them then. If the hem is too long then the knee fades probably also don't line up.

So I know I'm pretty late to the party, but could someone detail the changes in fit of the PS between 2011 and now?
Much appreciated

If you're not into stacks , I would not buy them. As Timbaland said once you hem them , the fades won't line up.
