I heard back from Ryo at TCB. Looks like they have a model in mind and are aiming for the summer! Relevant email bits from Ryo: Also many thanks for your suggestions! I will discuss it with Hajime but we actually have some new model in mind to do a fade contest with in our mind, which many vintage jeans lovers would love for sure. We aim to release it in this summer...The release date might be delayed or get earlier but we would like to hold a fade contest for sure with the new model! Sorry to potentially cut any discussion in this thread short, but I'm also hopeful the new model will be roomy!

Same here. FYI I sent TCB an email today letting them know there's interest on the SuFu-side. I also included the ideas mentioned in the other thread. I'm happy to let others take the lead here, but just wanted to reach out to TCB while the idea's fresh on their mind.

I don't have a direct line to TCB by any means, but happy to help organize if there's interest. I myself would be interested in a new cut/fabric or a Frankenstein of sorts (e.g. 30s fabric on a 50s cut).

TCB 50's in a size 32. $45 shipped CONUS. Worn a fair amount, but still a lot of life left. They've just been sitting unworn in my dresser for a while now so it's time to let them go. A few stitches have busted on the crotch, but they shouldn't be too hard to sew up (I added some of my own). Has the old TCB patch design! Measurements are BiG style. Note these are chainstitch hemmed pretty short. Waist: 16.25'' // Front rise: 11.5" // Rear rise: 16" // Thigh: 12.25" // Inseam: 25.75'' // Leg opening: 9"

Sugar Cane Okinawa in a size 31. $110 shipped CONUS. I am finally accepting I am no longer a size 31 🙃 Worn < 10 times, cold washed once, and then chainstitch hemmed. As a fun extra, I'll also include a Sugar Cane catalog I got with a recent purchase. Measurements are BiG style. Waist: 15.25'' // Front rise: 11.25" // Rear rise: 15.25" // Thigh: 12" // Inseam: 28.5'' // Leg opening: 8.5 SOLD

Good tip. I just came across these "Stone" Spellbound chinos at Son of a Stag and I really like the shade. It's a shame the fit is slim tapered. I'll take a look at Jack Donnelly!

Thanks! The Khaki color does seem similar. Definitely a candidate for me. I searched for Sugar Cane's mountain cloth chinos and came across the SC41881. The color looks fantastic, but I unfortunately can't find my size. Seems like Sugar Cane hasn't done a recent run.

That'd be helpful, if it's not too much trouble. Some neat color options, thanks for sharing! I'm not set on one particular grey-beige shade. A shade like one of the ones below would be great.

Has anyone come across chino options that are more gray-beige (taupe?) than the traditional khaki? I find most khaki chinos to be more yellow or ecru than I like. Particular, I know!

Picked up the 0105BK from Bears. Fabric is soft and the fit is nice and roomy. The fabric balloons out at the hips, but I think that will settle with some wear. Definitely the most fried patch I've gotten in a one-wash pair!

Pre-orders are open for TCB's new M-41 chino. I've been eyeing a few chino options and am considering these. https://tcbjeans.myshopify.com/products/copy-of-stay-gold-chino-41-khaki-chino

Dropping to $100 shipped CONUS! SOLD
