hey guys,

I was browsing contextclothing and it says on their site that "Context Expert Tip: The APC Petite Standard has an updated fit. Please see our measurements chart for actual measurements. Wear for six months without washing to achieve contrast fading.", same thing for NS. Does anyone know what exactly changed?

Also is anyone buy "Petit New Standards"? Or is the above waht it's referring to?

Apparently the waist isn't vanity sized by 2 anymore according to Context. If it's any help, I bought 2 pairs of FW12 petit standards from APC's official site and the sizing was the same as it's always been, vanity sized by 2.

Just return them if they don't fit.

How much do APC Petit Standard corduroys shrink in the wash, if washed on a high temperature and tumble-dried?

I've seen alot of people asking about the quality of their jeans here but how well does their clothing hold up? Their jackets are a bit pricey almost as much as Opening Ceremony's but if they will last me years then I'm willing to make the purchase.

Are you serious man?
