Maybe i am not that well informed, but when i look at APC, Skull and Denime jeans they seem to be spin off's from the original 501 STF. Especially Denime which has a copy of the red tab at the back pocket. For all denim, the fit, fly and back pockets look very similar to the 501.
Is there a relation or am i seeing ghosts?

Welcome to the world of Repro-Jeans...
but you can skip APC in this case
But to add something useful, further repro brands you might encounter:
Warehouse
Fullcount
Samurai (but not that much)
Evisu (kinda, they started the repro-hype)
Studio d’Artisan
The FlatHead
The Steam Locomotive
SugarCane
And the list goes on and on .
There are also many little in-shop brands like “Porkys”

I don't think you're seeing ghosts at all, dave.
I just is yet another foolproof demonstration that the 501 really IS the original.....

Not to feel as thought I'm pointing out the obvious, but aren't all jeans based on the original 501?

Well, of course Levi´s 501 is the real mother of all jeans. Without Levi´s from 1873 we were not all dressing up in jeans nowaday.
But I will be faith to Levi´s 501xx only made in USA!!
