Man, the fit on those 47's is almost offensively bad IMO. I'm 6'2 and I've got a pair of 34 and a pair of 36 inseam, both of which I cuff (double cuff the 36). I'm not sure where this obsession with stacks came about, but they are not supposed to stack all the way up your leg. Granted I've got a very different style from the guy pictured, but I am now sure how anyone thinks that looks good or how that could be comfortable to wear.

word, i HATE the look of sloppy, sagging denim...if im gonna pay that much for denim im gonna wear them fitted and proper

is the denim on levis 511 and 514 slim better than say over expensive trus and sevens?

on alot of colorways yes. trues and sevens are paper thin anyways.

id suggest 32 in APC NS

i wore 30 in 511's and size 28 was the perfect fit for me

id suggest try it on first

btw i couldnt button the top two buttons at first, but APCs stretch like crazy

 

[neighb0rh00d]

my apcs ns stretched out too much

 

[sn souljah]

yea I own a pair of trues..bad quality..then the stitching kinda came apart real quick..but the shortys loved em lol

 

[keithsweatsjordans]

Anyone here have any experience wearing APC NS with 6 inch Timb's? I'm worried that the leg opening may be too small. I usually wear Timbs in thewinter but this will be my first winter wearing APC's. I don't mind lacing em tight...

Does anyone

Your help/contribution is much appreciated. Thank You.

^^^^ Give them a soak to let some of the dye go. I had a pair of very dark indigo levis and hand soaked them in cold water for about 20 minutes.

One of my boys said he uses some protector from Champs. He just sprays it on the shoes and apparently it works.

It's raw denim. The dye bleeds onto the shoe. Doing that prevents the bleeding.

 

[neighb0rh00d]

oh. but every denim bleeds. but thats a smart idea.

If you dont want the dye to bleed dont by rwa denim simple as that!

Denim bleeds period. It doesn't have to be raw.

 

[lb510]

^ Not all denim bleeds

 

[35kd]

How are Gap jeans compared to Calvin Klein or Kenneth Cole Jeans? Still need to step my game up from Levis

*facepalms*

Just because it's not raw doesn't mean it can't and won't bleed....
