But as another member pointed out, there's no way it can be that dark after 3 washes, 1 soak, and overall 26 months of wear.

That photo looks altered.

Guys, in your opinion, which A.P.C. cut would flatter me the most? : Here's me in a slim straight cut (I guess somewhat similar to NS):

Me in a slim tapered cut (similar to PS?):

(both are size 29 in Lee's) I'm looking for an overall slim fit. I don't want NS because of the flare, so it's between PS and NC. I'm leaning towards NC because I'm worried that PS will accentuate my big thighs. What do you think?

What's the best place to get some washed APC's? Most online stores just seem to have the raw denim.

Fahrenheit,
The NC actually have a small flair at the leg opening. The PS or NS would be better if you don't want a flair

From what I've seen, NS had a bigger flare than NC.

Nah, I've had all of them and NC has flair NS is slightly tapered, PS is the most tapered.

Might be because of the angle + the tag throwing off proportions, but your legs look really weirdly-tapered in the second pic. I actually prefer the fit in the first one.

^ It's the angle. My right leg was taking a step forward so my knee was bent...
Thanks for the comment.

Hey lads ive been planning to get a pair of APC's for awhile looking at the NS for the slim straight look, i wear a nudie Thin fin in w29 they are nicely fitted.

What size NS should i get that would give me that nice fitted silhouette? No im not looking to go skinny.

=/ Nudie Thin Finns are pretty skinny, if you go TTS/ size down 1. If you don't, the waist is too big.

If 29's your true waist, try 26 in NS. If that's too 'skinny' for your liking, go up one, though the waist won't fit quite as right
