Size down 1-2 maybe 3, depending on the fit you want.
Hard to say which is more skinny, depends on how you size really. I'd say the NC has a skinnier leg though

PS is is like the NS but with a shorter rise and slimmer leg. It tapers all the way down and has a smaller leg opening.
The NC is tighter up top with a very narrow leg and it flares out slightly on the bottom.

The PS compared to the NC has a lower rise, a lower thigh, hip and upper block, but has a much more obvious taper while the NC has a slight flare near the hem.

PS:

NC:

Photos found at Stel's and BOTH models are wearing size 30.

The Japan Blue Momotaro Tight Straight (the one on CC) is closest to PS.
The Skinny Straight one is more slim than the Tight Straight and is probably closer to the APC NC.

Got a tip from Blue Owl Workshop, size down 1 on Japan Blue Momotaro Tight Straight. So if your waist is 30, grab a 29.

I'm here London so I can go to a local APC store to have a tryon ,but not really sure about how much they will stretch. actually i had a pair of NS and a pair of NC. But black PS is in different matirial than indigo ones. even different from black NS. I wonder if they still strech amazingly.

thanks again..

Yup, Scotty is right.

The black APC denim is infamous for not stretching out as much as the indigo. Go down 1 if you're going for black, down 2 for indigo.

just wondering, what's the difference in getting combs that are closer together as opposed to ones that are spread wider?
like how does one or the other happen?
idk, might be a stupid question...but yeah.

If the jeans are tighter to your leg behind your knee, the combs will look tight, if they are loose, then the will look longer

Trev is right, the tighter the jeans are on your legs, the closer the combs will be. I wear a slim-straight and the honeycombs developing behind my knees on the jeans are significantly spread apart in comparison to my partner's jeans (he wears a slim jean). His honeycombs are much tighter together.

^fades on looser fitting denim is always so nice. Maybe it's because it takes a lot longer to achieve and we can appreciate the work put into them? :p

Which cut of Nudies are you wearing? The APC cuts are the New Standard, Petite Standard, New Cure and Rescue.

New Standard: Slightly tapered straight leg. Similar to the Sven
Petite Standard: More tapered version of NS
New Cure: Skinny straight with slight flare at the hem, similar to Grim Tim/Thin Finn
Rescue: Straight

Then I'd say you'd probably want to get the petite standards, the more tapered fit, for something like the grim tims. Or you could go with the new standard sized down 2 - 3 for a fit that would be closer to the thin finn cut.
