New Sugarcane model at BiG

[Roflcopterpwnsyou]

So BiG has announced a new model at their store by Sugarcane that they're currently taking preorders for. Handwoven on an old loom, dyed by hand with a light blue weft. Didn't see any updates on this yet, so I figured I'd share.

this has already been touched upon in other threads, but the fact that they have it up in their store is news to me...

[edmond]

check the sugarcane denim thread no need for a new thread on these i think

[jubei]

Edmond, I dare you to buy these jeans...

[edmond]

nah theyre too thin for me...

but there is a need for you "what should i get thread?"

[edmond]

haha no more im not a big fan of sc's anyway..

...im not a big fan of sc's anyway..

That's unfortunate, they are one of the most innovative and interesting brand on the market.

Oh, if only I had $750 right now...

[edmond]

and yeah id rather get a jomon than that

agreed. little does edmond remember a time on supertalk before superdenim was created that the 1947 model was much sought after. now it seems he buys what's "hot" on the talk...well, sucks for you for missing out.

[edmond]

yeah but the cut on the sc's are waay too baggy for my linking though but yeah the quality and price is great on sc's well not on this model for the price

[rnrswitch]

Don't you have the S0510 21oz? That is quite a baggy fit. Also, who cares what the fit is like if you aren't going to wear the jeans anyway.

Ahhh, I remember those days too. I still like the 47 model. I wear mine often. Almost every evening after I get home from work and in the morning on weekends.

[edmond]

but with a tapered leg.. the sc's are damn like pajamas to me..dunno why

[indigo_junkie]

$750? That's way too much. Didn't Edmond mention that they are pre-ordering at Take5 for $660? Now that I actually see the details, it's a very nice jean. I would've paid about $400 for them, but for the price that they are selling them for... just insane. :eek:

[fre-co]

Lovely looking jeans but at $750 it's way more than I will spend no matter how nice they are. The denim looks intense, spectacular even.

[Noddy]

hmmm too expensive for my blood

While I do think its a bit much, I think it was Nudie and their straight sven cut with organic indigo that they were charging about this price for. So looking at that and looking at these this seems a bit more valid to me.

check the sugarcane denim thread no need for a new thread on these i think

I probably could have checked a bit better, but I really mentioned them cause from what I understand this was the first time they're stateside.

I think the Japanese price is "only" 60.000 yens.

Edmond, I don't think you can compare these to the Jomons, they are too different in all levels (except for their prices). As much as I love the Jomons, I think these are more interesting because of the construction process and all the cool details.

[PG2G]

The markup on Sugarcane's has been crazy for the last year or two. I guess because of their NA distributor...

Anyway, they look cool. The cinch and pockets make them something I'd never even consider wearing though.

your right mate... these are only around 520 us dollars if converted from yen price..

[rome1]

amazing jean, shitty price.

[knucks]

What in the fuck? Those are some ugly jeans.

[gimmegimme]

What in the fuck? Those are some ugly jeans.

+1...I'm sure the denim is beautiful, and the details are all cool...but damn...they's UGLY.

[rome1]

it all depends on the viewer, but if edmond doesn't want them???????

I will admit that the front pockets aren't really my cup of tea, but the denim and the other details are rather nice.

The front pockets don't do it for me...but the back pockets look even worse...I think these are definitely for the guys that are into "historic" style jeans. Mind you, I haven't seen them on.

Agreed. Maybe someone could still feel good wearing them what ever reasons.

[watchman]

I hope somebody can get over the damn pockets, because i want to see how the hand woven denim fades. i cant imagine how uneven and slubby it must be.

[iamstarwars]

Well, if you buy me a pair, I'll be happy to wear them. I don't mind the pockets at all.
