The verdict
Fit
A.P.C.'s narrow cut extended in length for taller frames. True to size; expect A.P.C.'s fitted, tapered silhouette with proper proportions.
Quality
Core A.P.C. construction. Length accommodation doesn't sacrifice seaming or fabric quality.
Is the price fair?
At $142.50, A.P.C. value for tall-specific sizing. Sizing accommodation is practical, not a premium.
Best for
Tall women who struggle with standard jean lengths and want A.P.C.'s quality in proper proportions.
Care
Wash cold, turn inside-out, dry flat to maintain length and fit.
What owners report about A.P.C. jeans
Owners report the raw pairs — cut from 14.5 oz. Japanese selvedge — start stiff and snug, stretch to fit with wear, and fade into high-contrast patterns documented in multi-year wear logs on denim sites. Reviewers rate the fit and construction well for the price, and the line is a common first raw-denim purchase. Long-term wear posts also show front-pocket and crotch repairs along the way, and sizing differs from model to model across the range.
- Strengths
- The raw Japanese selvedge fades into defined, high-contrast wear patterns and conforms to the wearer over years of use.
- Watch out for
- The break-in is stiff, sizing varies between models, and multi-year wear logs show crotch and front-pocket repairs.
- Sizing
- Reviewers advise buying raw pairs one to two inches smaller than your usual waist because the denim stretches, and note that sizes differ from model to model.
