Congrats?!

Yes, the 1943 jacket based just on one jacket. Plenty of info in the Sugar Cane thread also plenty of videos on Clutchman TV showing the vintage pieces (2 jackets and 2 jeans, 1943 and 1946).

Yes

@CSL here is some picture material with the vintage pair of which the SC1943 is base on: https://dig-it.media/clutch/article/799433/ https://bookshelf.wisebook4.jp/html/toyoenterprise/51863/#1

Yet everybody (?!) on here loves and favours the more irregular denim which just replicates the imperfections of vintage denim. So we all justify to ourselves what we prefer (and that's what counts I guess). Is it because to sew badly is easy and to replicate imperfect denim is hard? We had this topic of the wonky stitching some weeks back but I didn't take part but here is my (obviously) biased view. When I started with raw denim and repros I favoured the perfect and neat stitching. I would have been disappointed to see sloppy sewing for the price I paid. The first model I really noticed which featured the more wonky stitchwork where the Real McCoys 003 and I didn't like it. Mainly because every pair was the same and the design of the errors wasn't very nice. I admit CSF started my interest in the badly sewn jeans. Everything was done on period correct machines and the errors were more natural and every pair was kinda different (if I see his newer stuff it's often pretty exaggerated and looks like a bad copy of his early work). From this point though I looked a bit different on sloppy sewing. I've got some old Denime stuff where the sewing is kinda sloppy but not on purpose and I am sure I would have been disappointed when I would have bought those in 2014 or so. Nowadays, I find it pretty neat and it's kinda my favourite part Denime in the Orizzonti era as well had their WW2 pair with sloppy sewing (and thus it predates the Real McCoys pair I mentioned earlier) but here again: all errors are the same. Hayashi-san even went so far to replicate the same errors on his Resolute 714. And this feature I still don't like very much. Why do I make an exception for Sugar Cane (and here is the justification part)? Because like I wrote earlier it's a 1:1 copy of an existing pair so kinda a perfect repro. Not a fantasy pair copied into oblivion like Denime, Resolute, Real McCoys, SDA or Full Count did in the past and do now.

Since I haven't seen every piece they made in every size it's hard to say But yes, that was the plan.

Well, except for the excessive chainstitch run-offs they are a 1:1 copy of an existing Levi's jacket, so I wouldn't say they take it too far... because there is an actual jacket looking like this. No fantasy product.

Can you share some real life measurements as I still find the cut confusing They suggested a size 48 for me as well.

SDA - Ooe - Cons

Sugar Cane should sue them

Yes, the 714 should be part of the line up for the 15th

And now it's official, the 15th anniversary denim will be: Black x white https://www.instagram.com/p/C7F-XNTvp7M/?igsh=MWthZXc2MnNjaWRwdA==

Tokio Denim has even more stock https://tokyodenim.official.ec/items/82662940

@Dr_Heech Are you saying I have too many jeans!!! But agreed, I should put them on more often.

Had this pair with me during our recent vacation so it needed another wash.

Thanks to my constant weight gain, these fit slimmer than I expected the 03 cut from Ooe. SOA03XXD, size 36

Very late to the party... Didn't really got the info these Nike Killshot 2 became available outside of J Crew and would be available in Germany. They were even on sale. they will replace my Veja soon, as those are pretty hammered. Also same colorway.

Vacation in the Bavarian Forest

@vIGGiou riou coming along very nice! @yung_flynnthe jacket looks great! Quite short, isnt it? At least compared to the old Type2 I have.

^ but only if you invaded Japan and had a chance to order in person. Anyway, here is a size chart to those "Mobilization" WW2 jackets from Militora

I really like their flagship denim. Has some similarities to Denime's XX denim. At least in the early stages. I also considered the 101 from time to time. I would probably really like the more medium rise.

You've been quite busy @Duke Mantee

I think I saw that pair...or was it another one? At least one W35 was on Grailed for a bit steep price.

Where did you buy them?

^ sized down for that famous Sufu fit!
