If you have 24" thighs, the Rescues are probably the only APCs that are likely to work for you. The N&F Slim Guys might work too, but they may be too tight in the thigh.

If neither of those work, you'll probably have to look at Nudie's looser cuts.

When did not being a newbie mean you have to be the embodiment of dick breath?

Be aware that if you don't size down from your true waist measurement on APCs, they are likely to be too loose in the waist for you, and that's even before stretching.

why are your legs so muscular? Did you do about 5 sets of squats in high school gym class?
Did you jump off the diving board 10 tens in the summer when you were 12? Did you kick a soccer ball around when you were 13? Did you ride a tricycle when you were 5?
