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

Advice: after some slubby denim. I bought some N&F heritage from the states, waited over a month but they're too small. Will sell on here in a few days.

Anyone know any other sub £180 slubby denim?

Has anyone ever owned the Patrik Ervell heavy twill jeans? Seems to be quite a tight and high waisted fit so was wondering if they stretch at all? Size up was too big in the waist and ill fitting.

I have a pair from f/w 11. Perfect fit for me at least, went tts. They are tight in the beginning but they will stretch out a bit. The waistband is silk lined so it won't stretch much, if at all.

OK so I cant see APC Petit New Standards available anywhere. Is there a similar cut around for the same price? Definitely want something slimmer in the leg than my New Standards but Petit standard are too much.

What size are you, I have a size 32 PNS which has only been tried on that should be going up in classifieds once the size 31 pair I sourced arrive in the mail?

Jordan was looking getting some, maybe PM him and ask if he could put his ring measurements up

Actually page http://www.fuk.co.uk/threads/denim_thread?page=421 R, Joe6886 all confirmed their rings are normal although this was a couple of years ago so they may have stretched out since then.

I've worn them a few times now and they've stretched a little/enough.

Can confirm my ring is still nice and tight, no stretching has occurred. Good jeans though.
