I like the worn in look, rather than having phony looking tears and stuff all over it. <br /><br />How do you keep the jeans fresh if you only wash them infrequently? do you hang them outside?Stanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430266701539456878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6556212946974788531.post-78793188771609890852009-11-27T13:06:00.006-05:002009-11-27T13:06:00.006-05:00^ thanks, btw very nice blog.

Definitely don't soak APC's before you wear them, the fit will pretty much stay the same but you will lose the sheen of the denim which I personally love on a fresh pair of raws. If you think sizing down 3 might be too much, I'd recommend sizing down 2 just to play it safe? Or if you really want to size down 3 I shouldn't worry about crotch blow outs. If it does happen, the repairs you would make on that would make them that much more unique and cooler looking IMO. <br /><br />Thanks for the comments guys!TKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00632746148856578497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6556212946974788531.post-52359207217648857122009-11-17T23:14:55.880-05:002009-11-17T23:14:55.880-05:00Great job on those APC's.

I don't want the crotch to rip like i see so often. Any advice? Did you do a hot soak before you started wearing them?

I hemmed off 2 inches to keep them from stacking at the leg so excessively and saved the left over 2 inches for repairs.

I've got a rip on the back pocket getting pretty big and I'm looking for something to fill it before it gets any bigger.G_regs_spaceshiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01707268924190509656noreply@blogger.com
