I just got my pair of 1947 One Wash Sugarcanes from xcoldricex

[obsessis]

They are nice, really soft. It is a nice change from the raw denim that I have had lately. They are one wash, should most of the shrinking be done? I wouldn't want the honeycombs to end up on my knee. one of the legs looks like it might have started to twist a bit.

I might put a bit of starch on them, or get them wet and wear them tomorrow, haven't decided yet. any thoughts?

if you have any hesitations about buying through xcoldricex, don't. I got my jeans 4 days after he bought them. awesome service from Japan.

if this is an appropriate venue -- what was your total cost to get the jeans?

I suggest you pm xcoldricex for that information.

obsessis, the shrinking is all done. No need to worry about further shrinking.

Good to hear, I have some stuff on the way, but it has been held up at customs since the 9th.

I just got my jeans to. I thought they came in a nifty box that said Sugar Cane on them, maybe coldrice just wanted to save on the shipping.

either way they are nice and the shipping time was fast!

[HEWSINATOR]

Oddly enough, I just got my stuff to, even though EMS tracking says the are still in customs at YVR.

The same happened with some switch blades I ordered from Italy a few years ago.

Only special editions get the box.

[obsessis]

the jeans are super dope, my girl says they are her favorites out of the ones I own. It is nice to have a soft pair of jeans that isn't raw, and they are still dark as hell! I can easily see how ryu's jeans stayed nice and dark with plenty of washes after seeing these after one. I bet they didn't lose any indigo.

[beefcake]

do we get to see pics of you weaing them?

[xcoldricex]

haha international you are really really hung up over that box. if you really want one, you should order a special edition jean! i can get them for you

[international]

lol, i just wanted to post the same thing I did in the other thread, dunno why

[watchman]

i just got mine too, and i am loving them. I heard they are itchy, but i havent noticed anything yet.

[giantreptile]

xcoldricex is definitely the way to go for purchasing Japanese denim abroad.
