kinkbmxco - those new standards look really nice, good job.

as long as they're not stupidly tight in the thigh, (ie. you can walk up stairs without being in pain) then they'll stretch. the legs just stretch alot slower than the waist does.

kinkbmxco - where did you pick up the NS in a 26?
They look fine to me. If you wanna get rid of 'em, let me know.

Just wondering if you went with o/w or raws on those originally...

it is highly unlikely you will have any difference (on the same person) of wear or fading characteristics between a o/w and raw version. i actually prefer o/w (when i can get it) because you know how the jean will fit right away.

I think I am going to hang on to them because I don't want to go through the hassle of shipping them, then purchasing new ones (they are already hemmed too). They don't feel uncomfortable at all, I just don't want to look like a total buffoon wearing them. So here is to hoping they stretch a little more!

There is actually a couple stores here in Portland that have a good selection of APC denim in stock (while I was there anyways). I picked mine up at a store called "Frances May" http://www.francesmay.com/shop/men/b...tandard-denim/ . Hope this helps.

Not crazy about the FC arcs. A little cartoony. They remind me of Ronald Macdonald.
