Sugar Cane Updates Its 1947 Jean For 2021

No matter what happens, there will always be a market for slim-tapered jeans! Despite my best efforts, the market persists! But if you’re going that route, you might as well wrap your gams in one of the very best fabrics ever made, Sugar Cane‘s 14.25 oz. denim.

This particular raw selvedge denim is used in Sugar Cane’s 1947 cut, and therefore emulates the look and feel of the vintage Cone Mills denim used by Levi’s in that era. The fabric is crisp and deeply saturated with indigo and puckers and fades beautifully. And surprisingly fast. Unlike the wide fit of the 1947, the new 2021 cut is a slim taper, one that closely resembles the Sugar Cane 2014, another cut only available in a 12oz.

A sure-fire hit with Self Edge customers and Sugar Cane enthusiasts, this jean offers a historical fabric with a contemporary fit.

Available for $230 at Self Edge.
