Fade of the Day – A.P.C. Petit New Standard (2 Years, 2 Soaks)

Even though they’re named the Petit New Standard, this super slim A.P.C. denim cut has delivered some big fades over the last few years. Today’s Fade of the Day is no exception, with this pair coming our way via Samuel Robinson, from New York.

Samuel tells us he mainly wears these A.P.C.s to work, but he does partake in the occasional cruise on a skateboard or bike. The denim has been kept relatively dry, with no proper washes over their two years of wear. This has led to some vivid fades in form of whiskers, stacking, and some killer honeycombs which claw ’round to the knee. We also have pocket fades on both sides of the jean as a bonus.

Aside from a big crotch repair, these jeans are in good shape, so we’ll leave it up to Samuel to carry on beating them up until they’re another pair of grail A.P.C.s.
