even APC NS's but I don't want a tight fit so if you sized down 3 in NS's I can't get a feel for how they look.


I NEED COMPARISON SHOTS.

I've done searches but w/o visual aid it's confusing since everyone has their own idea of tight vs loose.

I wear 30-34 and yes I like big cuffs.

What the hell do you mean by 'I wear 30-34' in jeans? I am sure that there are a TON of photos of people wearing all kinds of the jeans you are asking about in the what are you wearing threads here and on superfuture. On superfutre, there is a thread titled "how do they fit" where people post how jeans... fit. You should be able to figure it out from there. Good luck. The rule of thumb for NS is 2 sizes, but a few people advocate 1 (myself included) for a non-tight fit. Which LVC model? 1947? Just get the same size you do in other jeans you like. I don't know what to tell you. PM me if you have more questions because the board will not like this post one bit.

I have lvc 1947's 2" up from my waist size which is the way to go for the proper fit. I'll not post pics of them though as they're too high rise on me

yeah.... i got some washed lvc 47 in my normal size and they ripped when i put them on, after struggling with the buttons for 20 minutes.

i also reccomend down 1 for the apc ns. thats how mine are and the fit is better than 90% ive seen.(they fit much better than i had hoped for after seeing so many of them)

+1. I purchased a pair of deadstock 47 501 in 32/32. I'm normally a size 30 but I'm glad I sized up.
