Official thread sponsor: First aid for your old denim.
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'm wearing 18oz denim today and I'm fine let me guess, you're at work and they've got the air conditioning on full? |

Cheapest place to get some petit standards in a 28? oi polloi with -25%? Most probably, 25% is about as good as it gets. |

Just got my first pair of APC NS. Top button is quite tight (not doing it up at the moment in case it pops off) - should the waist stretch out quite quickly on them? |

Yep already top button closes no problem after 6-7 hours of wear. Looking forward to them loosening out slightly in the thigh but seem great quality so far. |

Looking for some lighter solid-coloured denim for the summer. I really like the colour of these, but I'm after something with a slightly wider hem and not tapered - anyone recommend anything? http://www.thecorner.com/gb/men/denim-trousers_cod42251543dn.html |

I think Nudie jeans are getting better. I'm going to buy some for weekdays. Cheap, they've lost the orange shit on the back on most. There is a big range with no high end fashion frills or ASSociations. |

agree with you guys on the DD. have a question of my own that has probably been asked many times. how do i shrink denim without comprising the possibility of having epic fadez and shit? talking about diors if that's relevant. |

echoing comments about The Doctor, have had a few things with him recently, all done extremely well and is a nice bloke to speak to as well. |

Their greencast slim ones look good, but I can't get on with skinny myself. Do you know if they fit TTS, or best to size up/down? |
