I think someone said it on here but Gap jeans just don't fade at all. Unless you like the dark denim look, you'll sort of be defeating the purpose of wearing your denim to the ground.

Very true about the fading. I've had my pair since black Friday of 2013 and I've worn them 5out of 7 days a week up until mid July and very little had fade. It's a nice pair of jeans but for $20 i can't complain.

Def looking to get a pair of APC NS though. Anyone in the boston area know where i can go to try on a pair? Stel's closed years back and i heard they had a 50% off everything on which I've slept on smh

Barney's. Concepts. The tannery may have apc as well but don't recall off the top of my head.

You could also order from mrporter.com today. And you'd probably get it by tomorrow free overnight shipping. You can just return them with the prepaid label they give you if they don't fit. Probably easiest way to try some different sizes and cuts out if there's no store near you or you just don't have time to go to a store because of work. Obviously this will tie up your money for a few days.

Nordstrom is a good option as well, especially with their return policy. And they offer free hemming.

I was at nordstrom a few weeks ago and asked the guy about APC and he told me they do not carry "ABC's" and when I corrected him he still told me he never has heard of them

:rofl:

Store employees are usually clueless about their own merchandise. Like bruh, how I know more about what you carry then you do?
 
^
I wonder if that employee ever browsed the nordstrom website at least. I can understand if maybe that particular store didn't carry the brand items.
 
Thanks guys i think ima try Nordstrom since my cousin's friend works there!

Btw does anyone remember when APC made NS in Black? Im not sure if it was a limited run but this was when a pair was only 145 back in 06/07
 
I have a pair of PNS in a off black I got from nordstrom rack for like $60

Depends on the jeans itself. A lot of it has to do with weight. Just rough em up a lot. Don't baby them. 

As I said in here earlier. Anything dirty you get on your hands, wipe on your jeans. Spit, jizz, snot, etc. goes right on the jeans man. 

I remember one time I was an eating an apple. I decided to rub the core of the apple on my thighs. Shrugs
 
LOL I'm not worrying about them getting dirtty. Also, I was squatting in them to try to stretch them out faster. But it is getting a little better though. Couldn't even button them all the way up when I first got them.

Lol I meant that getting them dirty will distress the denim and in turn make them stretch quicker. The thing that worked for me with mine is trying to pull them down your hips as far as possible. That will def get them to stretch quick.
