I never really left the mid nineties....

So I like the new APC stuff

I sort of see the 90s in it, not a whole lot. Overall it's solid, but not exceptional, except for these two looks which I'm really feeling:

ED: Odd, they've gone to s/m/l sizing rather than the numbers.

I really like the black zip-up jacquard sweater with the white pattern. If $278 should randomly pop-up in bank, I might indulge myself.

I feel the same about the blue/grey striped crewneck. I think I'll wait for the sale though.

Might as well just go to H&M and get the same thing for $30..

Yeah, but then you have to brave the madhouse that is H&M. Anyway, it'll be like $80 on sale, which I think is reasonable.

are apc's in cord pretty true to fit? how about in terms of length? would the cords be like a 36 inseam?

Because they're a cotton/elastane blend and tight fit, and because APC sizing is screwy, I wouldn't buy them without trying them on.

I received the Fall/Winter '06 APC catalogue two weeks ago. Most of the clothes struck me as being either very gray or very black or both. Good stuff for manic depressives.

I've never liked APC, and this season's collection is no exception. Very bland pieces, and tight pants have to go. Even the women's collection sucks!

I agree. I got the catalog last week (which is odd because they've never sent one to me before, I bought my APC's well over a year ago and I've moved since then) and I was pretty unimpressed. The collection is uninspired and a little effeminate IMHO. The denim is good though.
