I sized down to a size 30 PS. I think the fit is decent but not totally sure. My main debate was between the new cures or the petite standards and I went with the ps. I have a 15 day return policy so i can ship them back if I like.

Size down at 2 more IMO. They stretch like a motherfucker.

Also, stickies at the top for these kinds of questions, special flowers, etc.etc.

Could've used the sticky thread/APC thread for this question

Anyway if that's how they fit I think they'll end up being too big for you. APC stretch a lot so it's recommended to size down 2 in most cases.

I'd say 1 more but I don't like my jeans super tight. Sizing down 2 would be very very tight initially (difficult to close etc.) but would stretch to be wearable (but still tight) over time.

Honestly I think that if you just throw on a belt to prevent the waist from exploding outward, then you should be fine. Sizing down one will be MUCH slimmer

Do you have a moose knuckle yet? When you can answer yes to this question they fit correctly.

Size down one, that fit is not the reason people buy petite standards. Too slim-straight, needs to be actual slim. Especially if you were considering cures, these definitely aren't slim enough for you.
