Okay I am 5'8 150, my true waist is 33. I own new standards in a 31 that are much too big(they stretched out). I want a skinny/slim cut so do you think a 29 in new standard would work? Also what about for petit standards?

Max S,

For a skinny or slim fit your best choice would be New Cure or Petite Standard, not New Standard. Those would be too loose, as they are more of a straight fit. You are correct in sizing 29, but I would opt for either New Cure or Petite Standard, depending on your taste. Personally I like the fit of the New Cure, but the non selvage throws me off.

If you are adamant on getting a straight leg slim fit then you can get a size 28 New Standard.

i'm a 32 waist and sized down 2 for the NS the 1st time around. i have muscular thighs and calves though so it was a bit tight in those areas. anyone know if there is actually a difference in thigh and calves between a 30 and 31 or is the only difference in the waist?

i'd get the resuces but i prefer the slightly tapered fit

Congrats Max, post some fit pics up whenever you get the chance. They'll be pretty tight at first, but after a week I guarantee it will stretch out A LOT.

<a href='http://hypebeast.com/members/iggle/' rel='nofollow'>@Iggle</a> , no difference in thighs but maybe calves.

And does the PS tagged size the same as the actual waist?

Yo, got a pair of PS that ive been wearing on and off for a few months, just one thing bugging me; between where the honeycombs finish and the stacks begin the jeans sort of flare out a little if that makes sense. First pair of raw denim and idk it just looks sorta weird how the stacks end so suddenly, like the lower leg is a bit too wide.

Any advice? Sz 30 6'2 145lb if that makes a difference, also havent soaked them at all yet

so I bought used apc petit standard sz 28 online. the seller said it's only been worn once without any alteration. when I measure them the inseam is only 30 inch. chance is the ex-owner has hemmed it without telling me or it's fake. what do you think? i've never heard of fake apc though.

the thread: http://www.kaskus.us/showthread.php?t=11985460

some pics:






don't you think the color is different than the one here http://www.contextclothing.com/item.php?id=665 ? it's less indigo-y

thanks

tags look different, but they could be an older version, like last years model or something . . .



did you get them from ebay? if they are too short, i'd report him and demand a refund for falsely representing his product.

not ebay, but some forum in my country, similar to craigslist. they're not too short, actually the length fits me well. but I prefer more stacks. what about the color? don't you think it's not too vibrant?

idk, the french on the tag is different . . . did that change in the recent future? you might want to look in these threads and see if you can find out. that might give you more info than anything else.
