I heard you're supposed to size up two sizes for evisus



unless u like the really baggy look i would size down 2 or 1 in most cuts.

which style of nudies fits similar to APC new standards


even stevens

I'm kind of having trouble with sizes. I just bought a pair a pair of 32 H&M Sliqs and they were kind of tight at first. But by the second day, they were really comfortable due to the stretching. The problem I have is that I like the slimmer look such as the Sliqs but people say to buy true waist size (or size down); however, I (like to) wear my jeans 4-6 inches below my navel (I don't like the feeling of jeans or boxers or shorts being that high up my stomach). My true waist size is 28 with bigger hips so I end up wearing kind of baggy jeans. So I don't really know how to explain it, so I'll post a picture of me wearing the Sliqs soon. Does anybody else have the same problem?

Sorry for the rambling.

I can't seem to really understand the different between the APCs.
What is more of a straightish/slimish ? New Standard.
Rescues and standards are more of a relaxed?

The New Cures are very slim and too much for me.

Quick Question:

I've had a pair of A.P.C rescues that I like but the way i wear my jeans changed a big and their a tad too baggy for me now. Then I went back to levi 511's and I forgot how much I'd rather have the comfort of the thin jeans over the heavy selvedged now. Therefore I was thinking about going with the Nudie even stevens.. I know people say these are just average denim at best but I also heard nudies denim(non selvedged pairs) are pretty thin and Thats what I'm kind of looking for now.
So if i wear a 32 in levi 511
29 is APC rescues
...what size to get in nudie Even stevens? I was thinking 30? I don't want them tight but more of a relaxed fit. not baggy though.
Think Nudie ES's will be good for what I'm going for here? any help or comments are appreciated.

^ im pretty sure your assumptions are correct..ive also been looking for something similar to the fit you described and im thinking the even stevens or the average joes might do the job..however im also not positive about the waist sizing on nudies..i also wear a size 29 waist in apcs (i have a 31" waist) and im not sure whether i should size down or up in nudies denim..any suggestions?

Are you supposed to size down for flatheads? I plan to get the f301s. I usually wear a size 30 or 31. should I just get a 30?

Do not size down, they shrink like crazy. Either go true to size or size up one.

I'm getting the f310s as well, and I wear a 30 in Imperial Dukes, and Nudies Slim Jims, so I'm planning on getting a 31, but I still have to go try the 31 on too see if its what I want.
