    From the back of the closet to the front of the rotation

    Posted by Jordan on 3rd Aug 2018

    I had two pair of strait leg raw selvedge jeans (APC new standard and Williamsburg South 2nd St). Both are high quality but the straight leg made them a little dad(ish). I tapered the leg opening down from 16" to 15" and both pair look killer. Jeans size were 33 for the APC and 34x36 for the Williamsburg. I am tall so I used the highest crotch number (I think 13 or 13.5 inch), and the taper to 15" leg opening now wears like a levi 511 and a bononbos slim.
