As far as Raw denim I would suggest getting a pair of  Japan blue skinny fit from Blueowl.us. Quality is way better than APC and they don't stretch that much so buy your appropriate size.

TTS for Acne. The ace is a pretty slim cut. My pair is like 50% elastane or whatever the material that makes them stretchy. Not sure if I'd be comfortable in a 98-99% cotton denim pair.

What's the difference between suede and copper suede?

Guess I am ignorant. Didnt know women wear those shoes. Every place where I have had to dress professionally for work had women in flats or heels.

Im not sure if they are called flats. But less gaudy versions of these

Copper is just the color.

I wear my pants hella slim so I prefer something with 2% elastane. Anything else, other than my SLP denim, is extremely uncomfortable to me. This is why I can't get down with APC or most "raw denim" anymore.

My comment about polyester was in regards to wearing the fabric against your bare skin. I can't stand the feeling of polyester shirts so I can only imagine how brutal pants would feel. At least with Flyknits, I'm wearing them with socks so it's a non-issue.

My girlfriend bought a pair of "jeans" that are like 50%+ elastane from Old Navy and they faded quicker/better than my APCs have in 1 1/2 years. Pretty sure we paid $10 for them

Nah, they're quite comfortable if you're wearing jeans all day. The most important factor is knowing what cut is right for you.
