Sugar Cane

Oh Mist,
i need some sugar cane! -
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
-
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
-
any thoughts about this two:
-
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 -
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?
-
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

Good luck tracking down the Okinawas!

How about the classic Okinawas at Ushowu 501? They still have them in a 31, raw. Not the same as b_F's but a good deal nonetheless.

Thanks Maynard, am even more tempted with the two other SCs they offer, since they are W 30s. But there are no measurements, and anyway I prefer used ones and ought to keep myself away from spending ATM.
One day a hard used SC for a friendly price will come along, I have a deep gut feeling about that. -

thanks BF!
-
And one month and 2 hot washes later… loving em!
-
They look so good with that HTC belt. Great look!

After talking to Charlie at History Preservation, I decided to buy a pair of raw Okinawa. I am still a bit concerned over the inseam, but they will only get a cold soak and a drip dry so I think I'll be alright. I originally wanted the Aloha denim, but I was put off by reported sizing discrepancies.
