A.P.C. The official thread for APC denim sizing and other questions.

Gotcha. Funny you say that because I am sort of in the same boat. My first pair of dry denim was APCs, but I have since sold them and tried other brands of raw denim. However, no I'm looking to get another pair of APCs again, heh.

Hi all,

Must say awesome thread.

I own a pair of April 77 Joey size 31, New Cure size 31 and Skulls 5010xx size 32.

Im looking at another pair of APC jeans, and my mate recently got the APC x Supreme Petite Standards. Im thinking about getting a pair of normal Petite Standard.

Just need someone to confirm for me that the true waist size on the Petite Stanard size 30 is 32inches.

Thanks

Ben

Thanks for your reply.

Would you please tell me what szie ( PS or NC) do i get if i want to put on it like nudie thin finn w28.
The true measurement of NC and PS with the same size on official web site ,
the data of NS is bigger than NC.
Would you please tell me that why NC is skinnier ?

Thank you very much .

I got 2 blobs of white paint on my 3 week old PS.
Ended up having to sacrifice indigo in order to get it off
Now my right leg has 2 rather weird loook faded patches on the side of the thigh...
Damn.

Also, no jeans ever get "comfortable" imo. I'd always much rather be in shorts or roomy sweats but after awhile raw denim becomes like any other jean

yeah you're right. I recently put on my PS and think they fit pretty good. its not as tapered looking as i remember. I'll post fit pics later to get some opinions. They're about 2 weeks worn in so i think all stretching is done (hopefully).

32. Sizing down two isn't much in rescues. I sized down 4 and have been happy.

4 is now the way to go on these

the 31s I sized down three on look ridiculous now after some wear

I'm not familiar with the Thinn Flinn cut, or Nudie sizing for that matter. But disregard the measurements; I own both cuts in the same size and the New Cure is FAR tighter. I already addressed why- the rise is lower on the P.S so it sits lower, it also has a bigger thigh; the new cure is tight from waist til the ankle where it opens up a bit.

Does anyone know where to get a pair of original standards?

Tangfastic · Feb 9, 2010

Any bets on when the euro will be at its lowest vs GBP? I want to order some new new standards direct from apc soon, hoping for a bargain if Greece doesn't get a bail out on Thursday...

CuffEm · Feb 9, 2010

Any of you own APC PS and own RRL jeans? Which RRL jeans fit similar?

surrender · Feb 9, 2010

Where can I find a pair of Petit Standards in black? They're sold out in every size on the APC webstore, and I can't seem to find them at any of our affiliates

chronoaug · Feb 9, 2010

Try calling a physical APC store like the one in NYC and LA. They often have different stock instore. They do phone orders on non-sale things i believe

ConcernedParent · Feb 9, 2010

The SA's in LA told me they wern't getting any black shipments for the season.

Max Biggavel · Feb 9, 2010

My local retailer has them but they're 230cad + tax. What size are you?
