i have a question re: the APC jeans style pants, shown at http://apc.fr/eu/en/homme_look_3.php and http://apc.fr/eu/en/fiche_article.php?ref=1C020412236H

just wondering whether anyone has any experience with them...do they fit true to size? i am a 30 waist, and i wear 28 in raw new standards.

according to the APC sizing chart, an XS is equivalent to 26, S is 28, M is 30, L is 32 etc.
APC have recommended i get the size M (30), but i thought i had better double check as their sizing is all over the place.

the pants are lightweight gabardine, 100% cotton.

thanks in advance

Get the mediums. Unlike their jeans, I've found that their clothing is pretty true to size.

Aside from the jeans APC is indeed true to size, but the chart they gave you is probably off, I wear a small in APC pants and they're about a 30. In fact I'm wearing APC dress slacks right now and they're not constricting or anything, I could fit into a XS but this wouldn't be the case.
