I am about to get a pair of apc jeans and have never worn anything from this brand before but since I can get it for half off I probably should just try a pair. I usually like bootcut but I know they dont have any so I was wondering just how wide the leg opening on the Rescue Straight leg jeans was? thanks to anyone who can help me

Not to be a dick but if you get them for cost you must work in or know someone who works in the industry. Why dont you ask them?

If you like bootcut jeans you will like the Rescue, it has a reasonably big leg opening.

I don't have the answer, but it would help if you listed what waist size you're looking for.

I dont know which size to get either. I am looking for a relaxed fit, not to tight not to baggy. I normally wear a size 30.

My size 31 have 8.75" hems. They are 1.5 years old and have been washed once (cold water, short cycle, hang dry).

I think those dimensions hold for all waists, though I haven't inspected a wide range. Denimbar is probably a good memebr to ask whether the hem is narrower on a 25 vs a 35. Pretty sure the rise and leg specs stay the same though.

I'm interested in a pair of rescues as well....i understand the smallest size is a 29. Is this size sufficient to remain fitted through the stretch factor? or would it stretch too large, and subsequently lose fading. I would wear a 29 Nudie RRDG fitted/ 28 RRDS tight.

nope they will be big. Get a hipster or if you can stand a narrower leg opening do the standard not the New standard.
The rise is standard but the leg opening and leg change accordingly.

Just a thought. Any information you get from peoples replies is pretty useless unless you are ordering online then it might help a little if u then knew all the numbers behind all the other jeans of the A.P.C flavour to compare them to.
Anyways, there is this one sweet trick, works every time and makes sure you leave with the perfect pair of jeans for yourself. When you go to the store, wear the footwear you are most likely to want the pair of jeans to go with. Then when you get there pick up a pair a size smaller then you think you need, the size you think you need, and a size bigger than you think you need. Go try all three of them on and see how the waist and the leg sizes suit your needs. Try this with the suggested style and grab the three sizes of another style(s) if you fancy and give them a go. Take 2,3,4,17 pairs of shoes and try them all on with the jeans too if you want. They aren't gonna be upset, ur giving them way too much money for jeans, you can do what you want lol. This is why they have those conveniently built little areas for you to try stuff on in stores. And don't worry, no matter what, you will never be the worst customer they have had to deal with haha.
Do it. Have fun. Leave happy... Hope this helps.
