A bit off topc, but anyone find the beltloops of APC jeans to be a tad narrow and tight? Can't seem to fit any wide or thick belts in it.

Mike C,

What's the differences between the New Standards (Unisex) and the Tight Jeans?

In the site it seems that both are equal. I like slim fitting jeans, however I'm not sure how tight you mean. Is it tight like Dior Homme?

I'm in doubt between Unisex and Tight jeans. Can you help?

Geowu, the unisex are a fitted 501-type cut, with a closely cut seat. They are "slim, but not tight." The tight are really tight, not just slim.

My unisex New Standards do not seem to be *that* loose around the waist, but if you're ordering online, start with a size down from what you would normally wear.

How does Diesel Rabox/Zathan, etc compare in terms of being slim/tight to Unisex and Tight Jeans from APC?

Zathan has about the same tightness in the thighs as Unisex for me, both pairs being 30/32. I imagine that the APC Tights are considerably tighter.

Ok, thanks.

You mean 30/32 as both of them being W30/L32?
Can you measure the waist in inches of the APC unisex?
