tighter raw denim = better fadesYou can easily get the waist taken in by a tailor for $5. My waist size is a 31 but I wear 33 in jeans because of my legs, so I always get the waist taken in for a perfect fit.
It amazes me how people wear jeans like APC 2-3 sizes small because "the waist stretches" and then complain about ripped crotches and @#$ cheeks
you want it so that when it loosens up you still won't need a belt.
APC is also vanity sizing, so a 30 is actually a 31 when measured
I have a 31" waist, my APC PNS are 29.
crotch blowouts happen when you wear denim a lot. I've had them blow out on my N&F, my 3sixteen, and my current pair of APC on getting there. I don't complain about it, if it happens I get it repaired.
I have thick legs too from squats, buy fits that are better for your body shape instead of buying jeans that are too big.
