New Sailor jeans
The verdict
Fit
New Sailor is typically a tapered or cropped women's cut on A.P.C. blocks; expect a closer fit through the leg. Sizing runs small; go a size up.
Quality
At $147.50, you get A.P.C.'s consistent stitching and dye work, typical of their women's standard line without heavy-duty treatment.
Price check
Mid-tier pricing. The bleach treatment adds visual interest but doesn't justify a premium—it's standard for the category.
Best for
Women who want a lighter-wash denim with a tapered cut and don't mind A.P.C.'s narrow sizing ladder.
Care
Bleached denim needs gentle washing; one cold wash, then spot-clean as needed to preserve color variation.

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.
