WTB Sugar Cane 1947

[boogaloo]

Hello, I bought a pair of Sugar Cane 1947 jeans on Ebay a couple of months back and I am of the opinion that they are the best jeans I have ever owned. I think I paid around $180 for them shipped to the UK from an Ebayer in Japan.They reminded me of the Levis that I used to get when I was a kid, 30 odd years ago. Nothing like the garbage which is on the shelves in most regular Levi's stores that I have come across today. I would say the LVC stuff is pretty good though IMHO

I am looking for another pair of Sugar Cane 1947 jeans with the arcuate stitching, red tab and size 38/36. The jeans which I have right now, which are the exact size I need, are SC40285-025. The jeans I have are black and I am looking for blue hard washed or well worn in.

I am also considering similar brands (Samurai, Studio D'Artisan) which have the same fit and feel as these Sugar Canes.

This forum has brought back my faith that quality products are still being made and appreciated.

I considered buying them from Self Edge or History Preservation but the prices are a little too high for me and they also don't seem to have ones with the arcuate stitching and red tab.

Sorry, I don't know how to take it from here and move it there. If I did, I surely would. Any ideas on how to move this to supermarket thread.

The ones pictured don't have arc and tabs, but you might be able to get them to ship the arcs and tabs version to you. The price will probably work out to about $180.

$180 seems incredibly cheap delivered to UK.

http://www.sugarcanejeans.co.uk/locator.php is the website for UK distributors and has all retailers in the UK. Guarantee someone will have them with tabs and arcs in a back room somewhere (particularly American Classics).

Thanks for all of the replies, but it is the 38/36 size I need, the Ebay item is 36/36 and the Hinoya site is non red tab. Thanks

I heard that they don't make the SC jeans any longer with the red tab and arcuates....Levi's sued them? I actually have a pair of NOS 38W 36L 47's I might be interested in selling with the red tab and arcuates. Send me PM.

hawaiian canes in your size?:

ebay

(unfortunately without the green tab)

[rnrswitch]

While they are purrty, the red tab and arcuates don't define the jeans. If you can find them without tab and arcuate, pick them up or just hit up RivetHead.
