Acne - fit true to size APC New Standards -size down 2 or even 3 from true waist size APC New Cures - size down 1 or 2 from true waist size April 77 - size down 1 or 2 from true waist size Dior raw 19s and 21s - have vanity sizing and are labelled as two sizes smaller than actual size Edwin Nashvilles - size down 1" - quite a different fit to most jeans out there though (massive rise, loose at thigh and comparitively tapered at the leg). See the Edwin denim fit guide. Julian Red - fit small, so maybe true to size on raw and possibly size up on non raws Nudies - size down 1 or 2 Raf by Raf - true Ring - true (New thread, old one started by Paulo G, archived here) |

I let stuff like that dry, and then get a stiff (no homo) brush and gently brush it off. Not too hard though of you'll take the indigo off. |

Gets a lot of debate, but is LVC sizing random or is it possible to work out the actual waist compared to tagged for particular styles? Considering one of these two: |

rub tomato sauce into the rest of the denim so it shows up less |

Can anyone recommend some decent raw denim that has a decent rise on them and taper? Just can't get on with these tiny APC style rises crushing my junk. |

Anything in particular? I picked up some ED-71's in the sale and they're basically the reason I posted. Absolutely no good to me at all. |
