here are my 1001xx that i got from self edge in late august. have been wearing them a lot lately and still haven’t washed them yet. i’m not really a fan of how the banner denim looks when it’s washed frequently so i’m holding out for a while with these. 

picked up the 14oz denim shirt about two weeks ago. i make coffee for a living so i’m trying to see how yucky i can make it before washing. i really dig the fit on this one. it’s got a more boxy “workshirt” cut, but with western details. here it is after a shift today. 

i emailed s&s to ask about reserving a pair and they said no. they also said that they will be available in store in NYC on a friday in the next 2-4 weeks, and then whatever is left from the drop will be online the following monday. 

@bartlebyyphonics did you have the jacket shortened? the length looks way better here than i've seen anywhere else.

recently had a hankering for the kind of early 2000s chunky skate shoes i used to wear as a kid, so i picked up some globes on ebay. worn with some samurai 510xx

If you manage to find a way to get a pair let me know, I've been trying to get him to sell internationally for months now.

Has anyone thought about making a Bridge of The Times thread? I also cannot get him to sell me a pair of jeans.

hinoya just restocked the DD-s1003xx if anyone's been waiting to get a pair.

I'm having trouble deciding between a size 32 and a 33 in the Sugarcane 1966.

My Sugarcane BSPOW are a size 32 and they are too snug in the waist, however, according to SE's measurements the BSPOW size 32 is a true 31 inch waist and the 1966 32 is a true 32.5 waist. Do you think I'd be fine with the 32 66 or should I go with the size 33?

my size 29 66 measure to 29 in the waist just after a wash, and they do stretch a good bit.

Would anyone share thoughts on how the top block of the 66 compares to 47s? I've been planning on replacing my 5 y/o 47s with a new pair come fall, but the renewed availability of the 66s has piqued my interest. I'm most curious about the hip flare /anti-fit rear end which is fairly pronounced on my 47s (size 36). Cheers!

i have worn 47's from a size 28-31. i am a true 29. i bought my 66's in a 29 and hot washed them after their factory wash. so far the waist and top block feels much more like my size 30 47s if i'm comparing the two models. the 66 denim has a lot more stretch than the 47. the butt on my 66s is actually pretty loose, especially if i don't have them hiked all the way up. nothing super unflattering though.

not sure just how much searing sun you get @roomtemplacroix but did you notice anything yet - (or are they there for the summer?)

i noticed a tiny little bit of fading after two weeks for sure! gonna keep them out there for a good while though

Hi there what model are the sugar canes ? Please 

these are the sugar cane 1966

have all but given up wearing my pair because i find the fit so difficult for me. popping in to say i’m gonna leave mine outside for a while and see what sort of effect the sun has on them. everyone’s jeans are looking beautiful, cheers! 

i’m thinking about getting the sugar cane 66s. does anyone have shrinkage experience with them? my MF jacket is made with the same denim and shrunk a ton from raw. i kind of want to buy a size up and hot wash/dry for maximum shrinkage and leg twist. anyone have experience and/or advice?

Does anyone know if Hinoya removes tabs when shipping to the US?

Damn that right pocket shape is so good! @roomtemplacroix is it the same denim as the regular 47s? 

as far as i know this is an entirely new denim that sugar cane made when they originally made the limited edition 46 jean with junky. it's a 13oz denim. very very different from the 47 denim. 

here are some photos of the MIUSA 46’s i’ve been wearing regularly since january. they’ve been washed probably three or four times.
