Sugar Cane

[Chris]

Yeah, they're definitely more of a "traditional" rise.  They're higher than I'd like, but they aren't so high that I feel like I'm buckling my belt around my ribs.

If I've lost weight, it's from all that dancing.

Chris, the answer to your SUFU question on the patch. I wore mine to work+cycled+weekend (yeah I basically lived in them), for around 1.5 years and the patch held up fine. Didn't even coat it with oil

Chris looking good mate . Did you get,the drink from Seul yet ? What was your neighbour
doing ?

[Seul]

He was being jealous.

[Anesthetist]

I really like the looks of those. I've looked at them before but I remember them having short inseams which wouldn't work for me. I will have look into that again as Snowy's pair is inspiring.

Oh Mist,
i need some sugar cane!

[501IH]

Yeah, they're hot stuff. I would be very tempted by this very model in my size as well…...ideally well worn in.

Aber hallo!
You should definitely try to get a pair and check them out

[501IH]

Well, easier said than done! Whenever a pair comes up to begin with (rare occurrence!) it's usually way too big for me. And there's a price issue as well…... Guess I have to be VERY patient on this one.....

Sugarcane are among the cheapest of the Japanese brands. But I agree, if you don't plan to pay retail it's hard to find the right pair

I'd prefer the firs one as I dislike the loud details of the Union Star models.
I'm sure you can still get them cheaper from Japan

[Fergz]

I'm selling these. Too big, sized too ambitiously. Pictures not mine but they are brand spanking new and tried on only.

which shop would you recommend?

[501IH]

Looked yours up, Fergz, they would be too big for me as well, we're probably a similar size. Good luck with the sale.
If anyone happens to see a used Okinawa one (the kind b_F bought from Seul) in a W 30 or 31, I'd be very grateful for any lead!

The short sleeve wabash is too good to resist.  I just saw pics on IG and had to hit SE
