A.P.C. New Standard Denim

Posted on 04. Jun, 2010 by bespokeordie in Diary, New

     I will be the first to admit that I completely and totally neglected my A.P.C. Rescue denim.  Selvedge denim is meant to be worn frequently and repeatedly until it conforms to your body.  It’s lines, fading colors, and crinkles will eventually all echo your body in a way not pre-warn denim can ever truly match.  I picked up the vanity sized A.P.C. Rescue denim in a vanity sized 34″ waist having chose that cut over the New Standard due to my large, athletic thighs.  But, after aggressively working out again, losing some of that thigh meat, and realizing that I went one size too large I eventually wound up passing the still virgin denim along.  It was a sad moment, I felt as if I had actually failed to nurture them into their true potential.  Walking in to a Barneys Co-Op store not too long ago I saw a pair of 33″ A.P.C. New Standard denim laying ever so noticeably on a table all alone.  It was a sign from the denim Gods!  Quickly I snagged them up, darted off to a dressing room, and took a deep breathe in before I blew out as much air as I could so that I could manage to pull the skin tight jeans up and around my hips.  My experience had left me educated enough on the brand to know that these bad boys were going to stretch out.  Nearly afraid to sit down I whipped my head around in to the mirror to see such a rare site.  Raw indigo in so deep of a blue hue that it may even look black to some, no markings, no fades, no creases, and they fit like a glove.  I picked them up and have since renewed my vow to commit to conforming them to my body.  A lot of people have questions about A.P.C. denim, I know I did, so feel free to ask away.

Thanks for the two great posts on the APC Rescue and New Standards. Both look great and seem worth the money but I wanted to ask which of these would you recommend for someone who has a larger butt. Ive played soccer my entire life so I have a strong lower body with a large butt, thighs, and calves. Im debating whether I should get the rescues and size down 2 or the new standards and size down 1 as they seem to be a little slimmer. Thanks for the help and I look forward to future posts.
