SugarCane 1990's M-Series Archive

I got these a few weeks ago and have hardly had them off long enough to get good pictures, but here are a few. Size 29 M41057, at this point my favorite pair of M-Series jeans that I’ve gotten so far. The fit is perfect!

 

A couple pics from a hike to an alpine lake earlier:

^ Hell yes! Top top notch

I was wearing mine last night too—although I’m thinking about graduating these from climbing pants into the regular rotation, and switching to climbing in the M41059

First real day in the M41059

I always assumed these were the same denim as the M41058, but I don’t think that’s the case. They look very similar, and feel similar when raw, but after a wash these feel a lot more crunchy & rougher than I remember the M41058 feeling; I think they may have also shrunk more, although I didn’t take any measurements this time around to confirm. My best guess is that they use the same (or a very similar) initial denim but that the version for the M41058 is sanforized, while the denim for the M41059 is either fully unsanforized or only lightly sanforized. Can any Wrangler history buffs comment on whether this shift would check out from a historical perspective? In any case, really looking forward to seeing how these age in comparison.

@julian-wolf those are probably my favorite jeans they’ve ever made. Great score and fit.

Are you still after a 60/40 mountain parka @julian-wolf ?

Check this out.. might be one size too small.

@Double 0 Soul Thanks for the tip, good memory

I’m still after one in principle, but I’d be an XL (at least) and as far as I can tell they only ever made XS–L. I actually did go out on a limb and buy one used in size L around a year ago, just on the off chance they were cut large, but if anything the opposite is true, and it came up comically small.

Since then, I’ve come close a few times to buying the Battenwear version—for whatever reason that’s the modern take that’s spoken to me the most—but never pulled the trigger.
