Pic of My Sugar Cane x Begin Jeans

[lowrider]

I just got them in the mail an hour ago. These are my first "heavy" denim jeans rated at 14.75oz. in the SC print catalog. I haven't worn them out yet but will shortly. We'll see how they do in Hawaii heat!

Can you see the differences in stitching in the 3 circles?

wowza, a tab too, woohoo

I'm kinda surprised that I got the tag too since US Customs opened up my package and saw the jean. They then proceeded to tag on $53.26 in taxes. Grrrrrrrrr....

Damn, I've had a lot of shit from all over the world land in my po box and I don't think I've ever had one get inspected.

I'm guessing it's a Hawaii thing since the DOA here is very strict and worried about invasive species, et. al.

Interesting choice for your first pair of heavyweight jeans. Might I ask why you went such an unorthodox route?

Gorgeous pictures, by the way.

that denim is psychadelic. are they stiff? they look kind of soft.

i feel like im on mushies after looking at those pics....i was like...woh.....rainbows!!!!! the jeans are all different colored....

sick. Im interested to see how those fade btw.

That denim is freaking insane!

Reminds me of skittles for some odd reason....TASTE THE RAINBOW

i dont know i was looking at the predistressed ones and they look horrible. http://item.rakuten.co.jp/hinoya/sc40510_429/

[so-so]

If those didn't have that little pocket thing on the left side, I'd be utterly in love. Still, as is, they're pretty fantastic looking.

I kinda wish SC would add that little 3 circle thing to all new jeans as their replacement for the acuate.

are the warp threads multicolored and dyed indigo?

[khaltire]

anyone seen any pics of these broken in?

[Carl]

How much did they run you?

Those things look right up my alley...

I have a pair too They look almost Bape-like in yer face in those pics but in person they look a lot more like just a regular pair of jeans. They are natural indigo warp & weft dyed so they wont produce a super high contrast fade. Yes the side pocket sucks but that's what seam rippers are for! 2 mins later and voila. They are one wash so they arrive very soft and supple. Cut = '47 like. Price is the same as Hawaii's, Edo Ai's et al, Yen 31,290.

i am comfortable saying that sugar cane washes are horrible across the board

strange since buzz rickson washes are incredible

:confused:

nice pick up, lowrider

I picked up my first selvedge jeans last Saturday and began to do research on this forum. Talk about a kid in a candy store... I eventually narrowed it down to 4 types of jeans that I needed to have:

1) Classic Levi's - just because they're the godfather and the history is cool so I picked up the LVC 1906 Bunkhouse 501s for 50% off

2) Something different - the Sugar Cane x Begins fit my bill w/o being too over the top (IMHO)

3) A pair to thrash - Gap Goughs for $9.97 (they also satisfy my requirement as my first pair of raw denim that I need to soak)

4) Skinny - Haven't figured out which pair it's gonna be yet though the Japanese Dior 19cms are pretty cool but I do want to see what the Sugar Cane x Self Edge ones that another member told me about look like

So there's my long winded reasoning for getting these. Sorry!

Thanks again! I wouldn't have known how to answer those questions! Do you have pics of what your Begins look like without the side pocket? Please post up...

Mahalo!

[Tarmac]

i dunno whats up with the jokes, those are awesome

[blm14]

I was seriously considering them except for only one back pocket and what looks like the large amount of taper

the hard wash okinawas are one the best hard washes i've ever seen. used to be really good pictures of it on amazon but i can't find them anymore. The hard wash on the okis sold me on getting a raw pair. that and the python patch..

buzz rickson is made by toyo?

[Dick Danger]

That's what I thought, but then I always wondered why they were so much more expensive.
