I have the 33w in these, and they are as big as I would want to go top block wise, and the measurements of your apc ps look tighter than I would prefer to go in the top block. Take that for what it's worth.

So maybe just right?
The APCs are a bit tight in the top block, nothing a bit of stretching hasn't fixed. The rise is super low though, so I'm certainly looking for something that doesn't give me plumbers crack all the time.Any chance you can give me some measurements of yours as they've stretched out?
-
You definitely won't have to worry about plumbers crack with the 33, plenty of rise rear and front. I can get you some measurements later on, I rotate between a couple pairs though, so probably only about 2 weeks of effective wear. I am wearing a belt and putting little to no stress on the waist to stretch though. I also got abit over a half inch of shrinkage in the waist from an initial soak.

those are looking great finn

Any thoughts as to whether I could pass these off as business casual (initially anyway)?
I'm at one of those workplaces where I can only do jeans on Friday, but if these appear to be dressy enough…
-
Yes, you can. I wear mine with dressy boots and a black suit jacket for the cases I need to look decent, but don't need a full suit. Works perfectly. But you need to be careful, as they fade. Maybe the 666SB is the better choice.

I agree, I'm torn between the two.
555 waist to thigh is absolutely spot on perfect for me. 666 would necessitate me sizing up in the waist due to those thighs. Trying to weigh the certainty of 555 evo vs the fact that they would only be worn twice a week tops over the less perfect fit but far longer work usable lifespan of the 666. I don't know if you or anyone else has thoughts on how the feel of the denim between the two compares?
